Aberdeen Daily News Tuesday, Nov 16, 1897
The funeral services of Martin Bender, whose death occurred yesterday, will be held at 10 o’clock tomorrow forenoon. It will probably be held at the residence on Eighth avenue west, though that has not been fully decided upon. Mr. Bender was only about 35 years of age. He came here from Eureka two or three years ago and had been in ill health for a long time. He left a wife and four little girls, and had a son buried here and another at Eureka. His parents reside at Scotland, this state, and are expected to arrive tonight. He was honest and industrious and is well spoken of by all neighbors and acquaintances.
