      Services of Mrs. Viola Shannon were conducted from the Methodist Church Sunday afternoon. Owing to the absence of Rev. Chader from the village, Rev. Main of Pipestone preached the funeral sermon. The services were in charge of the W. R. C. of which the deceased was a member.

Leslie of Wilmber, Minn., Mrs. Ella Carlson of Minneapolis, Mr. and Mrs. John Onan of Wisconsin and Otto Leslie of Walford, N.D.
      Mrs. Viola Shannon was stricken with apoplexy Wednesday evening as about half past seven and in a few minutes later she answered the summons of her Maker. She had been down at her brother's home, Hart Onan, and on her way to her rooms felt the attack coming on. Neighbors came to her assistance and a physician called but loving hands and medical science could not do anything for death was present, and life passed out and into the great beyond at half past seven.
      Mr.s Shannon was a widow and had living rooms on the second story in the rear of the F. H. Frickie building. She has resided in Jasper the past two years and had just recently recovered from a severe attack of rheumatism. She was the mother of fourteen children. A son, Paul, who is the Earl Halverson on an auto trip to the coast was caught by wire oat Ogden, Utah, and he is expected to arrive in Jasper, Friday evening.
      Funeral services will be held at 2:30 Sunday afternoon from the Methodist church, Rev. Chader presiding. Mrs. Shannon was 65 years old.
