After an illness of several years, Leonard Bergquist of Steelesville, passed away last Saturday, September 7th at the home of his sister, Mrs. Ada Sand, in Minneapolis. He was 47 years, eight months and eight days old at the time of his death.

Deceased was born on December 29, 1887 to Axel and Hulda (Swanson) Bergquist at Steelesville and grew to manhood there. He had made his home in that community all of his life. Quiet and unassuming, he made friends with all who knew him and his passing is regretted by the community.
