MISS ADELE SJOLUND DEAD. 
A Victim oF SCARLET FEVER at CHI- 
caco Hospital, WHERE SHE WAS 
In TRAINING. 
Miss Adele Sjolund, of Manchester, 
who, in September last, entered the 
Children’s Memorial Hospital in Chi- 
cago for training as a nurse, died at 
that institution at noon, last Sunday, 
from scarlet fever, contracted while 
in the performance of her duty. 
Miss Sjolund was graduated from 
the Story High School last June and 
prepared to go to Chicago in the au- 
tumn. Her sister, Miss Agnes, has 
been in training at the Children’s 
Hospital for the last three years and 
the sisters planned, when both had 
been graduated from the hospital, to 
carry on their work together. From 
the outset Miss Sjolund was most 
successful and took an absorbing in- 
terest in her work. 
While performing her duties she 
was taken ill on Wednesday, Nov. 
13th. Her sickness soon developed 
into scarlet fever. She was given 
every attention and, for a time, her 
case was not considered a critical one. 
Dr. Soper, one of the eminent physi- 
cians of the city, who had her. in 
NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
charge, did not think the situation 
serious and remarked: 
“She came like a soldier and this 
is her first wound.” 
After a day or two, complications 
set in and, in a very short time, the 
situation became grave. For a time 
the patient was delirious. Sunday 
morning she woke very much im- 
proved, apparently, and spoke most 
naturally to her sister. A little later 
she dropped asleep, and it was soon 
noted that she was sinking rapidly. 
Everything that could be done was 
done, but to no avail. The end came 
just at noon. 
The rules of the Chicago board of 
health requires immediate cremation 
or burial of those who die from con- 
tagious diseases and, accordingly, the 
body of Miss Sijolund was cremated 
early Monday. At nine o’clock Mon- 
day morning private services were 
held at Graceland cemetery, the Rev. 
Dr. M. Houghton officiating and the 
remains were placed in the receiving 
vault at that cemetery for the winter. 
Next June, when it will be possible 
for Miss Agnes Sjolund to accom- 
pany them home, the ashes will be 
brought to Manchester and the “sol- 
dier” will be laid at rest beside her 
mother. A memorial service will be 
held at that time. 
Adele Bertha Sjolund—‘Dillon” as 
all her friends knew her—was born 
at Manchester 19 years ago, the 
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gustaf 
Sjolund. She was the youngest of a- 
family of five children—Aleck and 
Miss Sara, who still live in Manches- 
ter; Miss Nannie, who is at a sanitar- 
ium in Palmer and Miss Agnes. ‘The 
mother died when the children were 
all still young. 
ADELE BERTHA SJOLUND. 
19 Years—8 Months. 
Gee tjalals wee a tay 
She had pledged her life to service 
Tc the sick and those oppressed, 
But God called her, it was His will, 
And we must not be distressed. 
She was happy, oh! so happy 
In the calling which she chose, 
Only two short months He gave her, 
Then He took our slender rose. 4 
She is happy now in Heaven = 
With no sorrows of this earth. 
Do not let our sadness blemish, 
Turn our mourning into mirth. ;
