Death of A.E. Ayme. - A.E. Ayme, for thirty-five years manager of the boarding-
house on the Miles Company's New Hope plantation, died at 12:15 o'clock this 
morning, aged 63 years, 3 months and 11 days. He was stricken with an attack of 
pneumonia last Saturday, and despite the best efforts of his physician and the 
most careful and tender nursing of those who gathered about his bedside, his 
condition grew steadily worse and shortly after midnight last night he quietly 
breathed his last. The funeral will take place tomorrow forenoon, with services 
at the St. Francis of Assisium Church in Smoke Bend at 10:30 o'clock, and 
interment in the Donaldsonville Catholic cemetery. Mr. Ayme was a native of 
Convent, St. James parish, and was widely known throughout this section, 
numbering his friends by the score. He possessed in unusual degree the esteem 
and confidence of his fellow men and the genuine affection of those who knew him 
best, and it can be said in all sincerity that his death will be profoundly 
mourned and his memory long revered. Mr. Ayme's wife preceded him to the grave a 
little more than two years ago, and he was further bereaved by the death of his 
son a few months later. He is survived by a niece, Miss Adale Duhon, whom he 
reared as a daughter; one brother, Joseph Ayme, of Convent, and two sisters, 
Mrs. Audry Duhon, of Baton Rouge, and Miss Emma Ayme, of Convent.
