Death of Joseph P. Dalferes. - Joseph P. Dalferes, a native of Assumption 
parish, but a resident of this city for a number of years, died at 1 o'clock p. 
m. last Monday at the residence of his sister, Mrs. Nicholas LeBlanc, aged 
fifty-five years, eight months and eight days. Mr. Dalferes was apparently in 
the best of health up to Sunday morning, when at about 10:30 o'clock he was 
suddenly stricken with an attach of illness while sitting in front of Cobb & 
Company's livery stable in Railroad avenue conversing with a party of friends. 
He was immediately conveyed to his room and given every attention by the family 
physician and relatives, and in the course of a short while he rallied from the 
attack and seemed to be recuperating from its effects. This favorable condition 
continued up to 1 o'clock the following afternoon, when without previous warning 
or indication of any kind he suddenly lapsed into unconsciousness, passing 
quietly away a few minutes later before his brother, Duke Dalferes, or a 
Catholic priest who had been summoned could reach his bedside.

The funeral took place from the LeBlanc residence in Iberville street at noon 
Tuesday, services being held at the local Catholic church in the presence of a 
large gathering of sorrowing relatives and friends, and interment being made in 
the Catholic cemetery at Plattenville.

By virtue of his genial, kindly disposition and attractive personality, Mr. 
Dalferes had made for himself a large number of warm friends, to whom the 
announcement of his untimely demise has proved a great shock and a source of 
sincere sorrow. He is survived by three brothers, Franklin of New Orleans, M. D. 
of Lafayette, and Duke D. Dalferes, of Donaldsonville, and one sister, Mrs. 
Nicholas LeBlanc, also of this city. To these afflicted ones The Chief tenders 
its profound sympathy.
