Word has been received by cablegram of the death of Mr. J. P. Gueydan, in 
France, where he was on a visit. Mr. Gueydan was the founder of the town of 
Gueydan, owner of a large portion of the town site and much land in Vermilion 
parish. He has done much to improve that parish, and his death is a loss to 
Southwest Louisiana. -- Crowley Mirror.

Mr. Jean Pierre Gueydan, father of H. L. Gueydan, editor of the Gueydan News, died in
Paris last week. Mr. Gueydan was a very enterprising citizen and to him more than to
anyone else is due the development of the country around the town of Gueydan. Though
a native of France he had long since become thoroughly identified with this country
and its institutions.

3rd. Death Notice:

The death is announced of Mr. J. P. Gueydan, in France, on November 21st, aged 72 years.
This venerable and esteemed gentleman was well known in Vermilion and Iberia parishes,
for nearly half a century, and many warm friends regret his death. Mr. Gueydan was on a
visit to his native land with his wife, and was soon to have returned to his Louisiana
home, in the thriving little town of Gueydan, founded by him a few years ago. We extend
our warmest sympathies to his family in their sad bereavement.
