May 23Ln, M rs. STEVEN MADISON
YOUNG, formerly Miss Mary Ann
ichard, departed this life at the
bome of her son, DR.. 2. T. Young,
in Vile Platte.
Mrs Young was born In this par
ish, May 5th, 1919. Her health up
to her final illness has been re-
markabIe. Sickness was almost q
stranger to her, and physical suf-
fering almost unknown. She en-
joyed her IS years as few Of Us can
hope to enjoy them, IL gracious
Providence is so kind to aliot so
much to as. She was up and GO
ing, serene and happy to within a
week OF her death. Before her
children aud host of friends had
time to fully realize that the cher
full old lady was fatally stricken
down, the beloved mother, grand
mother, and friend had passed to
the great beyond. No long mouths
OF bed-riden pain; no disease en-
tralled imprisonment within drawn
shutters; no disease ravished
earthly tenement that reluctantly
gave up its priceless treasure only
after the wasting and dimantling
Influence Of sickness had wrought
its fury, but for one OF her extreme
age, truly iii the midst OF life
and health she was In death.
Seven married Children, all OF
mature age and heads OF families,
are left TO mourn this aged mother.
Her grandchildren number more
than two score, and her great
grandchildren nearly half as
many. Almost three decades be-
fore the outbreak of the civil war,
she was married to Steven Madi-
son Young, young Louisiana
planter who became in time a
wealthy slave owner. They lived
happily and prosperously together,
until the death of the. husband
shortly after the close of the civil
war.
The remains were inferred In
the Catholic cemetery at Church
Point, by the side OF the husband
and father who had proceeded her
by thirfy-three years. The scene
about the grave when the last rites
were being made was most impress-
ing. Three genenerations OF low
ing and devoted children gathered
around the remains. Youthful
friends who had since childhood
heard her called grandmother min
gIed their tears with those who had
always called her so. Mothers, with
hair frosting In the gathering twi-
light OF life's evening, who We're
rollicking girls when the deceased
was fond young mother and proud
and cherished wife fingered long
around the last resting place OF
one whom they had known and
loved In the brighter haleyon days
OF youth.
Well may we all hope for such .
career as hers, so replete with the
lows and satlsfactions that a parent
wishes for more in this life: hap
py and prosperous lineage to rise
ND and call us blessed.
After drinking long and deep o.
these heavcn-sent joys, death aa
last claimed its own, but the pro
tecting hand Of an ali-merciful
and kind Creator had stayed the
rea per for grand old age, SO thai
the noble womanly example OF hel
life might be seen and emulatee
by the children of the second ane
third generations.
aThere is no death the stars go down
To rise upon some fairer shore,
| And bright in Heavens jeweiied crowi
They shine forever more
