Death Of Mrs. J. D. Ory
mot here. O Death, not here,
Is there no other flower for thee
to take?
All the world is thine, and for
its sake
t0h! come not here.
/ Just on the threshold of her
young life. aged only 19 years,
10 montas and "a days, and we
may say just at the time when
youth stands waiting before the
| half open door that leads into a
fairer and more promising land
of dreams and flowers, MRS.
III. DANIEL DRY nee Maria
PerilIoux, daughter of Mr.. and
| Mrs. A. T. PeriIIoux of La Place
La, passed from this world into
eternity last Tuesday morning
at 9 o'clock at he. home in La
Place after an illness of very
short duration.
| The funeral services were held
Hast Wednesday morning at 9
O'Clock at the st. Peters Catholic
lChurch, at Reserve. La, with
linterment in the st. Peters ceme
1tery. Rev. Father Francis Ba-
ldeaux officiating and paving q
| beautiful tribute t. the memory
of the deceased. The casket was
covered with most beautiful floral
[designs loving fingers ever
wrought, all of which spoke of
purity. peace and immortality.
| The deplorable news of Mrs.
| IOry's sad snd untimeIy death
east deep shadow over the
whole community, and every
| heart was toucned with sympa-
thy for the grief-stricken ones,
from whose fire-side the light
| had fled. Not only had she been
Ehe joy and comfort of her home
now left empty and desolate,
out her very presence continually
brought wealth of sunshine,
| and happiness into the lives of
the entire community. Her path
i Of life is marked with deeds of
kindness and cheer. Flowers,
not thorns, sunshine not shadow
dld she scatter everywhere.
In her death another name is
stricken from the ever lessaning
roll of our good Christians. A
solitary, heart broken husband,
a grief stricken mother, a be-
-eaved fatner, many relatives
and close friends and d lonely
aome are left to attest how sadly
tley will miss her. But it must be
so; these tender human ties cannot
ne severed without a pang. There
is no language a6 orr command
by which We could fittingIy por-
tray the bitter pangs of death, but
we must realize that it is the
work of one who gives and one
Who takes, and must bear death
with true christian fortitude and
resignation.
/ is the gloom of the ehurehyard
that reveals to Us more clearly the
beauty Of life. it is the broken tie .
at the grave that prompts US to
a fuller appreciation of the ten
. derness OF the ties that are not
, yet broken; and SO while we
mourn the loss of our dead we
may rejoice that there is no cloud
50 dark that there is no light
behind it, no sorrow 50 poignant
enat there IS no balm for Ehe
wound il infllets.
Besides her grief-strickan has-
oand, deceased leaves co mourn
ner sad and untInlsly demise a
ievoted mother, kind father.
Two sisters. a brother AM as the
attendance at her funeral fully
verified a large concourse of lose
friends.
However cold, and impotent
are our words We extend to all
| the bereaved, and grief stricken
J ID ones our most heartfelt, sin
:ere. and sympathetic expressions
of coincidence 1T this the saddest
and darkest moment of their
Lives. May time slowly bring its
resignation, and may the shores
iIof eternity that received her
Soul surround it with everlasting
sunshine and flowers. Gone from
lour sight! but because life and
love are stronger than death she
is theirs still. She is still the friend
) Of those who miss her. She is
, stillthe daughter and sister Of the
dear ones upon whom she dotted
with such elinging fondness, and
s still the heIpmate and companion
