On the 17th inst., Amedee Rougeau, a native of this town, died at his residence 
on Attakapas street at the age of 36 years. He had been confined to his bed 
since last fall with an affection (sic) of the glandular system, and death 
proved to him a happy release from long continued and severe bodily suffering. 
He served in the Confederate army as a member of Winchester's Pelican Battery 
and was a good and faithful soldier. Recently he belonged to the Cannoneers 
(sic) of Donaldson and afterwards to the Cofield Guards, being a member of the 
latter command at the time of his death. The Guards took charge of the funeral 
and buried their deceased comrade with military honors the afternoon of the 18th 
inst. Mr. Rougeau left a wife and two children to mourn him.
