Peder and Erick
Olson, brothers who were early residents of Center township,
but removed to Minnesota, have been visiting relatives and
old friends in the vicinity of Elon and were in Waukon
Monday. Both are civil war veterans, Peder having been a
member of Company B, 27th Iowa, which was largely recruited
at Lansing. He would have like to have met a few of the
comrades of his regiment who still reside here. He is a well
preserved man of 80 years and lives in Los Angeles.
