THOMAS COMPTON CHACHERE PASSES AWAY IN RUSK, TEXAS

Thomas Compton Chachere aged 47 years, 10 months and 7 days, died at Rusk, 
Texas, on Sunday, June 27th, at 8:45 a. m. The funeral took place from the 
residence of his brother T. Geo. Chachere, on East Landry street on Tuesday 
afternoon at 4 o'clock. Interment in the Protestant cemetery.

The deceased was well known in this city where he was born and reared. 
Though physically afflicted for many years, he kept up the unequal struggle 
for a livelihood, and succeeded by painful labor, in maintaining his wife 
and large family of children. Recently he moved his family to Rusk, Texas, 
where one of his sons had found remunerative employment and  where the 
illness which terminated in his death overtook him.

His remains were brought to Opelousas on the Frisco train and interred in 
the Public cemetery on last Thursday afternoon.

The Clarion tenders its sympathy to his bereaved wife and children and to 
the others members of family.

Additional Comments:
Thomas Compton Chachere is buried in the Myrtle Grove Cemetery, Opelousas, St. 
Landry Parish, LA.
