Duson, a daughter of the late Captain and Mrs. E. A. Pharr, of this city, died in the thirty six year of her age. She was of a self sacrificing nature winning and retaining the love of all who came within the radius of her personal influence. The remains were brought here on Wednesday and laid to rest in a tomb by the side of her father's grave, just thirteen months to the day after the burial pf her father. Mrs. Duson's health failed some years ago. Later she was taken to Alpine, Texas, in the hope of finding an atmosphere that would afford a relief, if not a cure. But death was the only physician who could bring relief to the sufferer. When the news came of the rapid sinking of the patient Mrs. E. A. Pharr was prevented from going to her daughter's bedside by being herself confined to her bed, and it was not till the last moment that health would permit of her enduring the fatigue of the trip. And then it was too late. The Iberian joins the many friends in offering its sympathies to the bereaved families. source: The Opelousas Courier.
