Necrological. - Died: At her residence, 209 Center street, on Sunday 
morning, July 10th, at 1:30 o'clock, Widow H. B. Smith, aged 71 years and 3 
months. The funeral took place from the residence at 5:30 Sunday afternoon, 
largely attended by sorrowing relatives and friends of the family, Rev. C. 
C. Kramer officiating.

Mrs. Smith was a devoted Christian mother, loved and admired by all who knew 
her. She leaves a family of two sons and two daughters living, her eldest 
daughter, Miss Kate W. preceeding (sic) her by a little less than three 
months to that sweet rest of the beautiful "beyond."

The Iberian joins with the many friends of the family in tendering its 
sincere condolence to the bereaved ones.

Last Sunday morning at 1:30 o'clock the soul of Widow H. B. Smith, returned 
to its maker. After a long life of usefulness and christian example, life's 
fitful fever is ended. Deceased was the widow of Mr. H. B. Smith at one time 
a resident of St. Mary Parish, but for 35 years or more a resident of this 
parish, coming here when the new parish was young. Mr. Smith preceeded (sic) 
his wife by many years leaving her with the care of a large family, a trust 
which she fulfilled with the greatest care, raising her boys and girls, to 
good men and women, but recently one of those daughters passed ot (sic) the 
heavenly land. Mrs. Smith leaves a son, Mr. H. L. Smith, of Smith, DeBlanc & 
Suberbielle who is one of our most respected citizens and successful 
business men. Two daughters also are left behind who have done all that 
loving thoughtful care can do to make easy the rough places through life 
which came to their dear parent, who wanted for nothing that filial devotion 
could devise to make pleasant the declining years of the loved one. The 
funeral was from the home, on Centre street, the Rev. C. C. Kramer, 
officiating and a large body of sorrowing friends and acquaintances 
attending.
