Houma Ceres, August 23, 1855
DIED--On the 15th inst., at his residence, on Bayou Black, in this Parish, JAMES 
L. CAROTHERS, aged about fifty-five years.

Mr. Carothers was a native of Pennsylvania, but removed to this State at an 
early age, and became one of the first settlers of the Parish of Terrebonne.--He 
was by profession, a surveyor, and by his accurate knowledge and great 
experience, no less than by his faithfulness in the discharge of his duties, he 
contributed greatly to the satisfactory arrangement of conflicting land titles. 
He was a good man a good citizen--had many friends, no enemies--and his death 
has caused universal regret. The loss of an upright, sincere, and capable man, 
as was Mr. Carothers, is more to be lamented than that of many whom the world 
call great. 

Alas! that a just man should die.
