[volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, December 09, 1916, Image 2 Death of Miss Celine Crochet. - Invading the home of Mr. and Mrs. Odressi Crochet for the second time within two months, the Angel of Death last Sunday claimed the soul of Miss Celine Ann Crochet, who passed into eternity at 9:15 o'clock a. m. after a lingering illness, aged 16 years and 10 months. Every source of medical science, supplemented by the careful nursing of loved ones, was employed to check the ravages of the dread malady from which the young woman suffered, but to no avail; an omnipotent Providence had willed otherwise, and human effort proved powerless to avert the decree. The funeral cortege left the Crochet home above Darrow at 8 o'clock Monday morning, and comprised a large number of sorrowing relatives and sympathizing friends, who had gathered to escort the remains of the lamented young woman to their last resting place and to attest by their presence the degree of affection in which she was held and the measure of grief imposed by her untimely demise. Services were held at Ascension Church in this city at 9 a. m., after which interment was made in the Catholic cemetery. Besides her parents, Miss Crochet leaves to mourn her loss two brothers and four sisters, namely: Fulgence Crochet, of Galveston, Texas; Euclid Crochet, Mrs. Leo Gaudin, Mrs. Lawrence Marchand, Mrs. Theodule Richard, Jr., all of Darrow, and Mrs. A. J. Esneault, of Faubourg la Pipe. Heartfelt sympathy is extended the bereaved family by a wide circle of friends.
