relict Of the late John Kingsburry FL
gee, Mrs. Elgee was born in this par E.
ish on the 25th of June 1876, and was
for some time prior to her death the
oldest living native Of Rapides. She
was daughter of Pierre Ledonx, Civ
il and Military governor Of Louisiana Louisiana
under the French dominion, and vas
related by blood to others s Of the oldest
Creole families in the state. In 1919
she was married to Judge I. c. Scott
a native of Virginia, anda most esteem
able citizen, who died in the year 1884.
| In tho, following year7she was married
! to the late John K. Elgee. who subse-
auently became one ofthe ablest and
most emminent lawyers in the state.
!, Mrs. Elgee passed the whole of her
| long life in the Parish of Rapides, and
I was we'll known to the men Of several
generations that are past. She had
outliyed the friends Of her youth, aud
had seen grown up around her new
Trace, with aims aud impulses different:
from those fthe old regime, which OBJ
tanned in the days Of her childhood and
; early youth. She was, however, the
same to them all; and the unaffected
kindness and open-hearted generosity
which she inherited from her French
ancestry, were as marked, in her de-
clining years, towarasher new friends,
: = as in the vigor Of life towards those Of
t tile same generation as herself. The
e many friends she has left behind will
/ long treasure the memory Of her many
good deeds. =. =.
