Tena Lee
Mrs. O. A. Lee Dies after Short Illness — The community was shocked last Thursday afternoon at the announcement that Mrs. A. O. Lee was dead. The circumstances were quite pathetic as Mrs. Lee had been an exceptionally strong woman and had been sick but a few days. The Saturday before her death she had given birth to a son, and all seemed well until Monday when complications set in that resulted in her death. Mrs. Lee was formerly Tena Olson and was born in Trail County, North Dakota, 35 years ago and was married to Mr. Lee in her native state. The family moved to Chester (Montana) about two years ago and was much esteemed. Interment was made in the new cemetery Saturday afternoon, Dr. Holford officiating. Mrs. Lee leaves four young children and a husband to mourn her loss, and all join in extending sympathy in this sad hour. [Chester Signal, 4-11-1912 - Sub. by Kathie Marynik]
