We regretfully chronicle the death of Madame John H. Ilsley, Sr., nee Eliza G. 
Mollere, who passed away on the 10th inst., at her home in New Orleans, at the 
ripe age of 72 years, after brief illness. The remains were brought to this 
parish on the steamer Henry Tete, Tuesday, and were buried the same day, the 
funeral cortege moving from the Gaudin residence, a short distance below town. 
Deceased was, we believe, a native of Ascension, and her death is mourned here 
by many relatives and friends. Deep sympathy is felt for the bereaved husband, 
the venerable Judge Ilsley, who loses one in whose companionship nearly fifty 
years of his life have been spent. The couple expected to celebrate their golden 
wedding during the coming Summer, but cruel destiny has intervened and the 
portals of the tomb close upon the faithful wife and devoted mother, whose long 
life was a record of loving deeds and shining virtues.
