MRS. LENA MILLER DEAD.


Vaudeville, La, Aug. 25.-The
saddest incident of the week was
the unexpected demise on Monady,
of Mrs. Lena Miller, an old and
greatly beloved resident of this pic
turesque town, after an illness of less
than fortnight. The fact that her
death was unlocked, for by her host
of friends rendered their grief at the
loss of one whom they had admired
and cherished the more. intense.
The deceased, who was II years
of age when she breathed her last,
was native of Germany, but resided
in st. Tammany Parish since her girl
hood, and continually added to her
admiring and well-wishing friends by
the many fine traits of character that
manifested themselves in all her re-
1ations in life. Kind, indulgent, sin
cere, earnest and loyal she rendered
others happy, as duty rather than
an incident. And when grim death
claimed her for his own.
our community was deprived of one
of it's noblest members and thereby
suffered a distinct and severe loss.
May her pure soul find perennial
peace in the Great Beyond.

construed by the directors as indicat-
ing the sons assent to the choice of
Mount Auburn cemetery as the site

indicated that unless his wishes were
consulted he would seek legal aid In
asserting the right Of one Of kin to the

lived there so many of her years that
was the place where she wished her
body to rest after life had passed. l

this matter"
