Death Of Mrs. Henry w. Lear.

It is with profound regret The
Chief records the death of Mrs.
Henry w. Lear, nee Virginia Duke,
who passed away at 9:45 o'clock
Tuesday night at her home in Pas
cagoula, Miss. Mrs. Lear had been
i'll a long time and 1t was known that
her death was inevitable, but the
sad announcement proved none the
less a shock to her family and
friends, and was received with sin
5cere sorrow wherever she was
known. The body was brought to
Donaldsonville Thursday afternoon
via the T. and P. Railroad and was
laid to rest in the Protestant Gene
terry, after services at the grave
conducted by the local Methodist
minister.
Mrs. Lear was a sister Of Messrs.
J. RumseyIDuke and Henry G. Duke,
of this city, and was a native OF
DonaldsonWlle. She resided here up
to a few years ago, when she re-
moved to Pascagoula with her hus-
band, who is engaged in farming n e..
that place. Possessed of all the
womanly virtues and accomplish
ments, with a cultured mind and a
rare charm of manner, Mrs. Lear
was idolized by her family and be
loved by her friends, and the sorrow
occasionedE by her untimely demise
is sincere and lasting. Besides her
husband, she is survived by five chill
dren, namely: Mrs. Clarence Cary, OF
Houston, Texas; Mrs. Thos. Crebbs,
Miss Maud Lear, Duke Lear and
Cecil Lear, of Pascagoula. Heartfelt
sympathy is extended to the be.
reaved family in the hour Of their
grief.

the earth and provided an ample
supply of water for all purposes, and
no further contribution of moisture
was necessary or desired. Another
heavy rain fell Wednesday, however,
and occasional drizzles on Thursday
and Friday indicated that the wealth
er is far from settled and that fur
