OCR Text	Show COMMISSION HEAD DIES OF INFLUENZA T-VpeciaJ to The Tribune. RICHFIELD. Dec. 6. Austin Yergen-sen Yergen-sen of Monroe, chairman of the board of commissioners of Pevier county, died of pneumonia, following influenza, Wednesday Wednes-day evening. Mr. Yergensen was one of the most prominent business men in this part of the state, being extensively engaged in the cattle and sheep business. He went into Sanpete county about a week ago and it is believed contracted the disease while on the trip. He is survived by his widow and several children. Funeral services ser-vices were held at the Monroe cemetery today. Mr. Yargensen's death is a distinct dis-tinct loss to Sevier county, as It will be extremely difficult to find another so capable ca-pable as he to fill the positions of responsibility re-sponsibility which lie held.
