beloved husband of Corinne Breaux, father of Mrs. Sidney Molaison, Mr. Eddie

  The remains will be taken to Thibodaux, La., this Saturday, November 2,
1929,
at 8 a.m., where services will be held at 11 a.m.

  The deceased, who was a son of the late Emile U. Morvant, was a native of
Lafourche parish, where he had resided up to about four or five years, when
he
decided to make his home in New Orleans.  He thus leaves a large number of
relatives and friends here to lament his death.  Besides those mentioned in
the
notice above, he is survived by three brothers and four sisters, their names
being:
Mr. Edgar Morvant, deputy sheriff of Lafourche parish; Hon. Walter Morvant,
