OBITUARY.
George Vincent Crane was born in New York Sept. 2, 1850, moved to Minnesota with his parents at the age of 15. In 1879 he came to South Dakota and settled on a homestead in Concord township, Lake county, where he resided until his death.
In 1881 he was married to Miss Jennie Praizler of Austin, Minn. Five children were born to this union, three daughters, Mrs. Chas. Hanson, Mrs. Richard Westall and Mrs. Chas. Pagel, all of Winfred, two sons George William, now married and residing on the home farm, and Lloyd Delbert, aged 12.
Mr. Crane was a modest unassuming man, but industrious and progressive. He was a good neighbor, and a loving husband and father. He will be missed by his many friends and by his sorrowing family.
