Judge S. ]. Henry.

The death OF Samuel j. Henry
occurred unexpectedly Thursday
night and vas a great shock to the
whole communjl.. While stricken
with diabetes about a year and a
half ago, the doctors verdict then
had Il sl.i,us ttfoc5 upJI his
general health. but the past few
months, his condition was much
improved and when be had a little
touch of malaria last week, it was
not considered serious until a
sudden change came on Thursday
morning and in less than "a hours
he was dead.
Sam Henry" as he was popu-
larily known throughout North
Louisiana, was born and reared
here the youngest son of the late
JOSEPH Henry one of the most
distinguished citizens of the State
and excepting for the years he
was away attending college in St.
Louis and Tulane, spent all of his
life in Natchitoches. He was
quite a young man when he was
admitted to the bar and he always
took a prominent part IN politics,
serving as both a member of the
Police Jury and as Parish Supt.
of Education and was elected to
fill the unexpired term of Judge
Porter in the District Court in
1907 when he resigned to 60 upon
the bench of the Court of Appeals
and was reelected to succeed him
self for the 1908-12 term.
Judge Henry was of a jovial
sunshiney disposition, hale fellow
we'll met with any and every body
and had friends innumerable, who
came from not only every section
of this but adjourning parishes to
pay the last sad respects and the
immense crowds and beautiful
floral offerings at the funeral on
evening, testified to the
esteem in which he was held.
A widow, three daughters, one
grandson, one brother a number
of nieces, nephews and other rela-
tives and a large number of
friends will ever hold his memory
sacred.
