Death Of a Child of Mary.

| CObtIiuutru.
Last Thursday morning the sad
news was flashed to us that Noelie
Bienvenu was dead. She had been
in New Orleans for sometimes I'M
dergoing medical treatment but
the news of her death was SO sud-
den that the whole community
was shocked
Noelie or Lilly, as her friends
called her was daughter of Mr..
Ulysse Bienvenu and a member of
the largest family in this town.
She was a home loving girl and
after the death of her mother,
which occurred quite number of
years ago, with the help of an old
er sister, took entire charge of a
large family. She was noted for
her sunny disposition and her
readiness to help the needy.
The body arrive from New Or
leans by way of New Iberia. and
a large number of friends and re-
latives were at the depot to ac-
company the body home.
AT eight O'Clock Friday morning
the Children of Mary society, of
which she had been a member for
over fifteen years assembled at the
Convent, and all dressed in white
with veil and blue ribbon of the
society, and proceeded to the home
of the deceased. At nine o'clock
the funeral procession slowly wen-
ded its way to church, SIX Child
dren Of Mary acting as pall-bearer
and the rest following two by two.
Then came the large concourse of |
friends and relatives. She was
buried at a Solemn High Mass at |
which the whole town was present |
to render their last tribute to the
deceased. Father Peters assisted |
by Father Beauvain conducted the |
funeral services During the cere- |
mony Eater Peters rendered a
most beautiful and touching eulo-
sy, praising the deceased and in
spring all those present by his
eloquence and his sincerity.
After the impressive ceremony
at church they proceeded to the
grave yard when she was buried
in the family vault
She lay within the lig hit of God
Like a babe upon the breast
Where the wicked cease from
troubling
And the weary are at rest.

The last act in the famous Hunt

only leaked out yesterday with their
departure for Tucson where they will
take up their residence.
They applied at the office of the
clerk of the court and were unable to
secure a marriage license because of
the fact that Mr.. Chilberg did not pre-
sent the written consent Of his father
They then decided to elope and the
eighteen year old bride elect and her
-year-old fiance motored to
Florence where they obtained a license
and where the marriage took place
Mrs. Chilberg was graduated from

Her father at one time had large bust
ness interests in this city and is now
extensively interested in mines in the
