Death of A. J. Yard. - Alfred J. Yard, a well-known citizen of the eighth 
ward of Ascension parish, died at his home in Galvez on Saturday, May 14, at 
4 o'clock p. m., after an illness of two weeks with pneumonia, aged fifty-
two years. The funeral took place Sunday afternoon, interment being made in 
the burying ground on the banks of the Amite river in the presence of a 
large gathering of relatives and friends.

Mr. Yard was a native of Orleans parish, but had resided in Ascension for 
many years, having conducted a store and cultivated a small farm at Galvez 
for some time past. He was a member of Kenneth Lodge No. 41, Knights of 
Pythias, of this city.

Besides his devoted wife, Mr. Yard is survived by five small children and a 
heart-broken mother, Mrs. Josephine Montamat, of Donaldsonville. To these 
afflicted ones the sincere sympathy of a wide circle of friends and 
acquaintances is extended.
