(Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, March 09, 1918, page 3 Death of Mrs. Charles Tircuit. - Mrs. Charles Tircuit, of Plaquemine, died at 10 o'clock Wednesday forenoon at the Hotel Dieu in New Orleans, to which institution she had been conveyed the preceding Monday for surgical treatment. An operation was deemed necessary and was to have been performed Wednesday, but the patient succumbed before this effort in her behalf could be exerted. Her body was brought to Donaldsonville via the Mississippi Valley Railroad Wednesday afternoon and was conveyed to the residence of her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Claud J. Himel, on Peytavin plantation, from whence the funeral took place at 11 o'clock Thursday forenoon. Services were held at Ascension Church in the presence of a large assemblage of sorrowing relatives and sympathizing friends, interment following in the Catholic cemetery. Mrs. Tircuit was formerly Miss Metala LeBlanc, of the Smoke Bend community of Ascension parish, and had attained the age of 54 years and 19 days. Besides her husband, she is survived by five sons, Messrs. Numa, Lawrence, Clarence, Walter and Irving Tircuit, all of Iberville parish; three daughters, Mrs. L.R. Ferchaud of St. James, Mrs. Claud J. Himel of Ascension, and Mrs. A.P. Roussel of Plaquemine; one brother, Rene LeBlanc, of Garyville, and one sister, Mrs. Octave Tricuit, of Iberville. Sincere sympathy is tendered the bereaved family by a wide circle of friends and acquaintances.
