Edmond Laperouse.

Death has removed another good pioneer citizen from our midst, in the person 
of Mr. Edmond Laperouse, who passed away Tuesday afternoon at four o'clock 
at his late residence on Providence between Madison and Field streets, after 
a brief illness.

Deceased was a native of New Orleans, where he first saw the light of day on 
the 24th day of April in the year 1814. He resided here for a great many 
years, and was always a quiet, honest, peaceful gentleman and was well known 
and held in high esteem by almost every one in this community, especially on 
the part of the older citizens.

Mr. Laperouse leaves a wife and children, besides grand-children and 
numerous relatives and friends here and else-where to mourn his untimely 
death.

Funeral services were held in the St. Peter's Catholic Church on Wednesday 
afternoon at 4 o'clock and interment was made in the Catholic Cemetery at 
this place.
