If $mu_n rightarrow mu$, then $int f dmu_n$ does not converge to $int f dmu$
$begingroup$
Suppose that $mu_n$ is a sequence of measures converging setwise to a measure $mu$.
I want to show that 1) if $mu_n$ is a decreasing sequence of complete measures then $mu$ is not necessarily complete, 2) if $mu_n$ is a decreasing sequence of measures, then $int f dmu_n$ does not necessarily converge to $int f dmu$, where $f$ is a nonnegative measurable function, and 3) in general, $lim_{nrightarrow infty} int f dmu_n$ does not exist (but I’m not sure if this is correct).
For 1) here is my counterexample. Let $mu_n$ be the complete Lebesgue-Stieltjes measure on $mathbb R$ associated to the nondecreasing function $F(x)=x/n$.Then $mu_n$ decreases to the zero measure $mu=0$ . In particular, $mu[0,1]=0$ but the interval $[0,1]$ contains non measurable sets, showing that $mu$ is not complete. Is this right? Any easier counterexample?
For 2) take $mu_n$ as in the case 1, and let $f$ be the function $chi_{mathbb R}$. Then $int dmu_n=infty$ but $int dmu=0$. Is this counterexample correct? Is there any easier counterexample?
For 3) I couldn’t find any counterexample. Any suggestion?

For 3) let $mu_n(A)=int_A frac 1 {nx} I_{(1,n+1)} (x), dx$ for $n$ even, $mu_n(A)=int_A frac 2 {nx} I_{(1,n+1)} (x), dx$ for $n$ odd. Then $mu_n(A) to 0$ for each $A$ but $int |x|dmu_{n}(x)=1$, for each $n$ even, $2$ for each $n$ odd .
