Obituary of R. D. Stove

Hon. R. D. Stove was born February 26, 1851, in Nordfjord, Norway and died at his home in Howard on December 14, 1922. At an early age he entered Stord Normal school in Norway graduating July 12, 1872. In the summer of 1872 he came to America and spent two years in Grant county, Wisconsin. In 1875 he enrolled in St. Olaf's school at Northfield, Minn. being among the first students to enroll in that institution, and by the way, his son the Rev. David Stove was the first student of a member of this class to graduate from the same school. He was married October 26, 1876, to Miss Martha Hegdal and to this union eight children were born. Rev. David Stove of Grand Forks, N.D., Marie died in infancy; Ella, Mrs. Lars A Hegdal, Winfred: Marie, Mrs. Andrew Moseson, died in 1912: Hans Stove, Howard: Nordal Stove, Howard Regina,
Minneapolis: Dora, who died in 1910.
Mr. Stove and his wife came to Lake county, Dakota Territory, October 1880 and to Miner county in the fall of 1882, settling on a homestead in Belleview township.
He was a very active man and served as county commissioner from january 1888 to November 1889. He was a member of the old constitutional convention and took a promient part in the proceedings of that body. In the fall of 1889 he was elected to the state legislature, and again for a second term in 1901. He was one of the organizers and served as secretary for many years of the Framnes Farmers Mutal Insurance Co., was president, vice-president, and at the time of his death was one of the directors of the Howard National Bank: was also a promoter of the Farmers Evelator Co. and a director of the Nansen Telephone Co., he was also an active member of the Belleview Lutheran congregation and gave the ground upon which the church and cemetery adjoining are located.
The funeral was held Tuesday from Bethany church Howard at 11 a.m. and also at Belleview church at 1 o'clock p.m. Rev Ditman Larsen in charge of the services interment in the Belleview cemetery.
He was a man of generous impulses, and never forgot the hospitable ways of the Pioneer. He had borne adversity bravely and enjoyed prosperity quietly. He filled the various relations of live, as son, husband, father, brother, friend, and filled them well. Who can do more? At all times and uder all circumstances he walked the well beaten path of righteousness and when fully conscious that he was nearing the last of earth, he appeared to be fully impressed with the idea that at the end of time eternity began. Could all live the just and upright life Mr. Stove lived, and die in his trusting faith, death could no longer be called the "King of Terrors." So, let us all live that when the summons comes we may be like our good friend, and say "All is well." But he is gone and another name is stricken from the ever lessening roll of our old settlers, and a solitary woman in the sunset of life, mourning children, and a lonely home, are left to attest how sadly they will miss him. He was a good man, and not afraid to die. We can say no more.
