Two Brothers Drown in Goose River

Thor and Gilbert Sondreal Lost Their Lives While Bathing in the Goose River Last Saturday Evening

The Goose River claimed its first victims of the season last Saturday evening when Thor and Gilbert Sondreal were drowned when bathing near their home west from the city. The two boys had come in from work and just finished filling some barrels with water which they were hauling to water the stock. After finishing their job of filling the water barrels they were going in swimming and Thor, the oldest of the brothers, was the first to get in and it seems as though as soon as he struck the water he was taken with a cramp and commenced to sink. He called for help and his brother Gilbert jumped in to help him. He however was unable to do anything to assist him and they both went down. Word was sent to this city and to the neighbors and there was soon plenty of help there to search for the bodies. The body of Thor was found at about 11 o'clock on Saturday evening, and was taken to the Olson, Hegg Undertaking rooms in this city. The search was continued all night for the other body but that was not found until the next afternoon.

Thor the oldest of the boys was 31 years of age and Gilbert was 28. They were sons of Vebjorn Mikkelson Sondreal and were both young men of excellent habits. The funeral services were held from the Goose River church and was attended by one of the largest crowds that ever gathered at the church. The church could not begin to accommodate the crowd so the windows were all opened and the automobiles and carriages were lined up on the outside so the people could hear the services. The services were in charge of Rev. Eikeland of the church and he was assisted by Rev. Tjornhom of this city and by Rev. Hovland of Bethel church. - Hatton Free Press, July 13, 1916
