Died. - LANDRY - At Mulberry Grove, Ascension parish, on Sunday, June 11, 
1882, at 5 o'clock A. M., MARIE EDA DUFFEL, wife of E. Fernand Landry.

Another of earth's brightest gems has been taken from our midst; one month a 
mother, when lo! the King of Terror came and cast his dark and hideous 
shadow over that fond young mother, and claimed her for his own. Oh! no 
language can express the deep feelings of anguish and sorrow when the sad 
news of her untimely end reached her friends; it fell upon them like a pall, 
and became the source of a lasting sorrow. Oh! how much she regretted 
leaving her infant baby, how sad she looked as she clasped her in her arms 
and said, "My darling little baby, how can I leave you!" Then she raised her 
eyes towards her husband and faintly said, "Fernand, I did not think we 
would part so soon." To her idolized father she was a comfort. Weep not, 
kind father, but live with the hope of meeting your cherished daughters in 
that bright and beautiful world where sorrow and care are ne'er known, and 
where ye shall part no more. Beloved Eda! thy spirit has fled to a world 
more beautiful than this. Alas! why so many burning tears shed when we know 
thou art in bliss?
