St. Landry Clarion (Opelousas, La.) 1890-1921, July 08, 1916, Image 1

GEORGE WRIGHT

The Clarion inadvertently omitted to chronicle the death of George Wright, 
which took place in New Orleans on Saturday of last week.

Mr. Wright was buried in Opelousas on Sunday afternoon.

In Iota, which place Mr. Wright lived for many years, the deceased was known 
and regarded as one of the most charitable, enterprising and progressive 
citizens, and his death came as a distinct shock especially to the citizens 
of that portion of Acadia, who loved and admired Mr. Wright.

The deceased was also well known in Opelousas, being a brother-in-law of our 
distinguished townsman, Hon. William J. Sandoz.

The Clarion deplores the fact that it failed to chronicle the death of such 
a splendid son of Louisiana and we trust that the bereaved family will 
readily understand that it was not done intentionally. We extend our 
condolence to the grief stricken family.

Additional Comments:
NOTE: George Wright is buried in section 3 of the Saint Landry Catholic Church 
cemetery located in Opelousas, St. Landry Parish, Louisiana.
