(Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, August 15, 1885, page 3 Died. - RICHARD - At his residence in Ascension parish, La., near Donaldsonville, Wednesday evaning (sic), August 12, 1885, at 7 o'clock, Theodule Richard, a native of this parish, aged 68 years and 6 months. This respected citizen was the venerable father of those esteemed gentlemen Messrs. Aime, Armand and Fernand Richard, and of Mrs. Arthur Cire, who had the misfortune to lose their mother a year ago. Mr. Richard was a carpenter by trade, a hard working man of estimable character and disposition, deservedly possessed of the respect and good will of the entire community in whose midst he was born and spent his whole life. Several months ago he had severe fall while at work, and the injuries he then received did much to hasten his death. The funeral Thursday evening was largely attended, services in the Catholic church and at the cemetery being performed by the parish priest, Rev. Father Dubernard. We tender sincere sympathy to the relatives of the lamented deceased because of the affliction they have sustained.
