HENRY PENN KILLED BY FALL AT NEW ORLEANS. - Mr. Henry Penn, a farmer of this 
Parish had the sad misfortune of falling off a street car in the city of New 
Orleans on Sunday morning last and lost his life due to concussion of the 
brain. Mr. Penn had just reached the City at the time of the accident and 
while in the act of paying his fare on a car while it was in motion, fell 
off on the pavement suffering injuries which caused his death a few hours 
afterwards at the Charity Hospital. His remains were brought here and 
interred in St. Peter's Cemetery on Monday afternoon at five o'clock. They 
were taken in charge by the members of Cypress Camp No. 34, Woodmen of the 
World of which he was an esteemed member. The unfortunate man leaves a widow 
to mourn his demise. At the time of his death he was engaged in the business 
of farming and while he was managing an estate of Mr. John R. Taylor as a 
tenant, is said to have possessed considerable means which he acquired in 
that line of occupation.
