Death of Fernand Riviere

   Relatives and friends in Thibodaux were shocked on Thursday of last week (5 
Jul 1917) to learn of the death of Mr. Fernand Riviere, who expired at the Hotel 
Dieu, where he had gone in the morning for an operation, he having been sick for 
about two weeks previous.
  The deceased, whose age was 30 years, was the son of Mr. Edgar Riviere and 
Louise Hoffmann, former residents of Thibodaux.  He served for several years as 
postmaster at Schriever.  While there he married Miss Harriet Morvant, who, with 
three children (the eldest six years and the youngest 3 months) survive him.
  The deceased was a employee of the New Orleans Railway and Electric Light Co. 
and he was an estimable person.  His body was interred in New Orleans.
