KELGSTAD, Severt ----- A telegram
was received at this place Wednesday morning announcing the
death of Private Severt A. Klegstad, October 26th, in France,
from wounds received in action on the firing line. The message is from
the War Department at Washington. The Warren Sheaf
Wednesday November 27, 1918
Severt was wounded in battle about
four weeks ago, and Information was conveyed to the parents at
that time that their son was on the road to recovery and also
a letter from the son was received last week saying he would
soon be able to leave the hospital and probably return home;
thus with hope buoyed up that they would soon see their son,
they were looking forward to the day of his return. Evidently
there was a relapse in his case as his death came
unexpected.
As to the nature of his wounds
nothing definite has been learned, but an inkling that he had
lost an arm in battle.
This intelligence is a severe blow
to the bereaved parents as Severt is their only son and while
he has made the supreme sacrifice in the cause of democracy
and the freedom of the world there is a pang of sorrow, a
vacancy that no human effort can replace. Honor to the memory of
Private Severt A. Klegstad for his heroic sacrfice.—The Oslo
Tribune. The Warren Sheaf Wednesday November 27,
