Died. - Wednesday morning at 7 o'clock, L. G. Stelly, a prominent citizen of 
Carencro, died suddenly of heart failure while out on a hunting trip at 
Second Lake near Melville. The remains were taken to Opelousas on a hand 
car, where they were prepared for burial, and then brought overland to 
Carencro. The deceased was a native of this parish and was 49 years and 4 
months of age at the time of his death. He was a prosperous and successful 
farmer and always took a lively interest in public affairs. He was a man of 
fine character and possessed the respect and esteem of all who knew him. In 
his death the parish loses a good citizen and his family a devoted husband 
and father. His wife and seven children survive him.

Funeral services, which were largely attended, were held yesterday at the 
Catholic church in Carencro. Rev. Father Grimaud was assisted in the 
services by Rev. Grace of Grand Coteau, Rev. La Forrest of Abbeville and 
Rev. Maring, president of St. Charles College, who preached the funeral 
sermon.
