her children that would benefit them
In any way;
She tried to inculcate In earn of j
them the purest morality, thf deepest j
'lullglon, ambitions and love for ait
bmci literature, to build them nil up' to
become useful and ihonored members
of :w.pty, and to be true1 to every
Ideal, and never to swerve from duty
of any kind.' Everything in the whole

In her an ardent admirer and friend,
nnd everything that was bad found in

days of her life, she lived a great deal,

thing she knew, no matter what or
where. She lived )u thought and deed
throughout her life.
Amonn; her relations are somo of
the leading writers, poets, reformers,
and statomen of Norway, and she left
a host of friends wherever she was
known.

and In tlie last moments to have them
all about her bedside, trying' In a

ihad not lived In ivain.
She passed away, happy in the
knowledge tliat Bhe had neglected

and like a child, she dreamed and be
lieved in a glorloua hereafter..-

"Mrs. Stackland, Dear Fridiid;
"1 have said to my wifo a few times
Blnce we came south that I wiu going
to write to you occasionally I think
of the true worth of a woman who
struggles with-, tne world aud-kuupb
her children together, and riis-3 them
to a manhood and womanho 3d tlul
anyone may be proud to h:nro such
people as friends, . We should not wall
to put flowers on the grave of a de
parted friend,, but during life let them
know of our appreciation of tlieir ad
mirable qualities. '
"I think of how you people, tried
against odds in Kansas, the" seasons
being unfavorable, how you foresaw
the possibilities after reaching Covo,
and turned what had been pristine into
valuable fruit producing l.ind.
. "How the mind for thd pleasant and
.'-iiuUfiil was always so apparent
ihrouchoul the famili , how we who
penr and tiriiggllng for a living, an
education and a home alway. rsceivc-d
encouragement from any -)f you we
met. Not only choice fruits, flowers
and pictures did we receive, but Ideas,
ideas so In advance of the ordinary,
Ideas on agriculture, horticulture, ar
chitecture, science of healtn. nnd psy
chology.
"I tell you, Mrs. Stackland, it is on
ly right wo let you know how much we
think of you and your children."
