NECROLOGICAL. - Pierre Delatte. - Pierre Delatte, a native and almost life-
long resident of Donaldsonville, passed away after a brief illness at his 
home in Thibodaux last Sunday morning at 7 o'clock, aged 45 years and 10 
months. Deceased lost his mother when a small child and was reared to 
manhood by his cousins, Mr. and Mrs. Justilien Delatte, worthy residents of 
this city, and resided here following the occupation of brickmason until 
about three years ago, when he accepted employment with the Standard Oil 
Company in this city, and later removed to Thibodaux to assume the 
management of the company's agency in that town, and held this position at 
the time of his death. He was a hard working and industrious man and enjoyed 
the confidence and esteem of a large circle of admiring friends, to whom his 
untimely death has proven a severe shock. He was a patriotic citizen, a 
loving and dutiful husband and an affectionate father and a warm friend to 
all those who claimed his friendship. The funeral took place at Thibodaux 
Sunday evening at 5 o'clock and was conducted under the auspices of the 
Knights of Columbus and Red Men, of which organizations he was a zealous 
member. Services were conducted at the Catholic church and the mortal 
remains were laid to rest in the family tomb in the Catholic cemetery at 
that place. Deceased is survived by his wife, formerly Miss Emma Montero of 
this city; three children, Ledia, Emily and Pierre, jr.; two sisters, Mrs. 
Joseph Braud and Miss Elizabeth Delatte, and four brothers, Joseph, 
Ferdinand, Paul and Charles Delatte. The Chief proffers its deepest sympathy 
to the grief-stricken relatives.
