Last Friday morning when Mrs. Fred Dethlefs went to call her father, Andrew Jepsen, to breakfast it was found that he was dead. The evening before he ate a hearty meal and retired as usual. A doctor was hurriedly called, and he after an examination reported that the deceased died an easy death, without a struggle. He lay when found just as if in a deep sleep.

Andrew Jepsen was born January 13, 1835, and came to this country 22 years ago and settled at Audubon where he followed his trade as a tailor as he had done for nearly thirty years before.

Last year he felt that he would cease working and make his home with his children. His remains were taken by the sorrowing relatives and friends to Audubon Sunday, where burial took place. Besides many friends who are left to mourn his loss, he leaves two daughters and a son to remember him as a dear, kind father. They are Mrs. Fred Dethlefs, of Manning, Peter Jepsen, of Fiscus, and Mrs. Anderson, of Ross, Iowa. The friends extend to the bereaved relatives the hand of sympathy in their hour of sorrow.
