Life In South Africa Related by Visitor to Friends at Silverton Silverton, Or., Aug. 21. Mrs. Hans Norgard, who lives hear the North Bide addition with her hus band, Is a most interesting woman. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Nel son, were sent to South Africa as missionaries from Norway In 1860 when Mrs. Norgard was but three years old.- They landed at Durbln, in the British colony of Natal, In South Africa. At that time there were no docks and the large ships could not land. A tug was sent out and then the passengers were car ried from the tug to land by na tives. ' The trip from Norway to South Africa was made in three months In a sail boat. There was nothing to stay in but a kind of woodshed when they first got there and there only five white people besides tho Nelsons and their three children there. Mrs: Norgard was the oldest of these children. Mr. Nelson spent two years in learning tho language of tho native and building a church and other buildings as best he could. This was at Zululnnd. After two years at this placo tho family was sent to another colony further Into the interior where they re ceived their mall and supplies once in 12 months. These supplies con sisted of one 7Ji-pound bag - of sugar, one sack of flour, a little coffee and a very few dry goods. Her father was paid J100 per year and (5 a year for every child for his services as a Lutheran mission ary and tho check was not sent to hit i but to the storekeeper at Dur bln and he sent them dry go6ds and groceries for tho same. They had corn meal for breakfast and at noon and .in the evening a little corn bread. Thcro were sweet potatoes that could bo used only In season asthe hot weather would not allow I hem to be kept. Pumpkins were used In lieu of these potatoes at other times. Then there were pine apples, bananas and oranges. Mrs. Norgard never saw nn apple till sho came to Amelrca. "Th6 corn for tho corn mcul was sometimes 'purchased from tho na tives but-had to be paid for with things-other than mono as these, natives would never take coins in payment for anything. A few goats, sheep and cows wero raised nnd tho meat heavily salted so that it might keep for a short time. The Noisons had eight children born in these wilderness, three of which died nnd wero burled there in their infancy. After Mrs. Nolnon's fifth child was born, she was a nearly helpless invalid in this desolate country for seven long painful years. Then ono evening she told 1: u r h ti sba n d nnd M rs. No rgard , who was the oldest child and had been doing most of the housework, that she believed she was going to ho healed on this night, that God ha I sent her a message, to that ef fect'' The hiiHhaTuHhouglU that the endyiiad"como. TS. Htfctha 'noxt day, Mrs.. Nelson arose ' from her bed and did some of her work and wasn't ill again for years. The next year she gavo birth to twins. She lived to bo 73 years of ago. Mr. Nelson was a paid missionary for 15 years with no Increase of salary during this long lime. He found It was Impossible to keep his growing family on this lncomo and ho ho sent put to work for himself, making wagons, doing carpenter work and anything in this line, and with all of this he built a little mission church of his own and tnught the nat Ives. Many, many times Mrs. Nelson was asked by some native to come to his hut to help 'ono of his six. or eight wives who woe sfck' and she' was always rondy to go, crawling into their low doorcd huts on her hand and knees to aid theso poor' souls.- 1 As theso natives began,' little by llttlo, to learn tho Christian ways, thoy put on a fow clothes, having Stomach and boweldisordcr cnuse sudden pains You want I relict quick!

STOMAQI EXCLUSIVE NEWS DISPATCHES gone practically naked before and let all but their favorite wife go, but they steadily refused to wear ehoes, both the men and the women. They also married their favorite wives In the Europeun style. Mr. Norgard was a volunteer In the British army and went Into the lntorlor during the Zulu war against the British In 187S. These British volunteers were forced to walk 1500 miles into this interior through heavy netted underbrush and without a trail of any kind. The oldest Miss Nelson and Hans Norgard became acquainted at the end of the 1000-mile march where the Kelson family and others had been practically held prisoners by the blacks for two months, and these two -young people were mar ried there the ncytt year by a Lu theran missionary whose name also happened' to be -Hans Norgard but was no relation to the soldier, Threo children were born to this couple in the African wilds, one of which died in its infancy. The Norgards decided to come to America In 1903 when their children were 15 and 11 years old and landed in Montana, where Mr.. Norgard had several brothers and sisters. After ton years homesteadlng there, they lost their all and came to Oregon. Previous to coming to America, Mr,, Norgard was engaged in a wholesale store in Durbln for many years. Nearly all of Mrs. Norgards people are living in South Africa, three of her sisters and three of her nieces having mar ried missionaries there. Six other relatives have already been ordain ed or aro studying to be ordained ns ministers. Borne of these are now studying in New York, Illi nois and other places. Tho golden wedding of the vener ablo Mr. and Mrs. Nelson was cele batcd In Natal, South Africa, In 1900, three years after the Nor gards had come to America and so they wero unable to attend. "While nil were dining at this golden wed ding, the guests heard a peculiar noise and looking outside, saw hun dreds of natives, all dressed in theft best, and singing "We Shall Meet Beyond -tho Kiver" in their own language. Tho foreman, or spokes man of the natives, stepped out nnd said: "We, they children, have come to wish our father nnd moth er luck. Wo were like cattle and you taught us. Our mother crawl ed on her knees to help us in our sickness and we are here to sing our praise to you nnd to thank you and bless you our father and our mother for the many kindness you have done for us, your children." Maybe wo can appreciate how this fine old couplo may havo felt. Mrs, Nelson died one year after this golden wedding at the age of 73 and hor husband three years later at the ago of 83.
