(New Iberia, La.) 1885-1902, May 01, 1897, Image 3 It is with regret that we announce the death of Mr. Edmond Lapeyruse (sic), Jr., which occurred at his home yesterday morning, at the age of 61 years and 3 months. Deceased was a useful citizen, well known in this and St. Martin parishes and highly esteemed by all, being of a jovial and friendly nature. He was for many years manager of Mrs. C. Bergerie's brick yard, and his loss will be felt by this esteemed lady, while to his widow and children it brings the pangs of sorrow always felt at the loss of a devoted and loving husband and father. He was a member of the Benevolent Association and this organization attended the funeral in a body. The remains were taken to St. Martinsville for burial after ceremonies at the Catholic church in New Iberia. A large number of friends were also in attendance. We extend to the afflicted family sincere sympathy in their hour of sorrow.
