Sudden Death of Useful Citizen OF
Shreveport

1t is with unfelgned regret that we
chronicle the death of Fred Martel ST.,
which occurred at his home, No. 5I5
Davis street at o:45 clock Friday
night. The demise of this most cs-
Unable gentleman and useful citizen
came to his wife and son as d shock, So
unexpected and SO brief was the inter
mission between the first complaint and
the end. Death resulted from acute in
digestion. There had been no svmp-
tom or indication of illness until after
he had enjoyed his supper. He had
been apparently i'll good health during
the day up to the time of his first com
plant Of feeling upwell, when he grew
worse rapidly and was soon beyond all
medical aid.
The deceased was borN III Rochten-
boch. Bavaria, Germany, and was i'll the
sixty sixth year of his age lie came
to the United States when a boy. and
was one Of the old residents of ShrcVc-
port He was noted for his industry
and his frugallty. lie was a man OF
broad view, progressive and entcrprls-
ing BY occupation he was a timer and
for years conducted successfully a mer
camille establishment at No. I'll JeNa,
street. III which he had associated
with him recently his worthy son Fred.
for the sale Of cooking stoves. CroCkcry,
glassware and ouse furnishing goods III
that line. He was of cheerful and gen
ial disposition. was stcadfast i'll his
friendship and was generous to his
loved ones He delighted to be at home
with his good wife, and his grandchil
dren he ido1ized.
1t may be truly said that in the death
of Fred Martcl ST.. Shreveport has lost
one of the best and most useful of lts
good citizens.
