Abraham Klotz. - Abraham Klotz,  a prominent merchant, planter and citizen 
of Assumption parish, died on Wednesday, March 27, at Asheville, N. C., 
where he had gone in the hope of benefitting his health. His remains were 
interred in the tomb of the Army of Northern Virginia, at New Orleans, on 
Friday morning, the 29th ultimo, the funeral being attended by a large 
concourse of sorrowing relatives and friends. Mr. Klotz was a native of 
Uhrviller, Alsace, and was seventy years, eleven months and seventeen days 
of age. He came to Louisiana in 1851, and served throughout the civil war as 
a member of the famous Donaldsonville Cannoneers, commanded by the late 
Capt. Victor Maurin. His business ventures proved uniformly successful, and 
he was looked upon as one of the most progressive and best-informed sugar 
planters in the state, as well as an upright citizen and devoted husband and 
father. He is survived by his wife, five grown children and a number of 
other relatives.
