Death of Mrs. Rudolf Teutsch.

After a period of declining health of over a year, concluding with several 
months of great suffering, Mrs. Rudolf Teutsch died Wednesday monring, May 6, 
at 6:30 o'clock.  Though surrounded with every comfort and attention that the 
love and devotion of her husband and other relatives could give, medical 
science suggest or wealth could furnish, the end was not to be delayed.  She 
has passed away beyond the sound of human weeping, beyond the out-reaching of 
human love.

Mrs. Teutsch was born Justine Mayer in Schweighausen, Alsace, Germany, 48 
years and 9 months ago.  She had resided in the United States most of her 
life, and in St. Francisville.  She was first the wife of A. [Adolph] Teutsch, 
a prominent merchant of this place.  After some years of widowhood she became 
the wife of her late husband's cousin, Rudolf Teutsch, another member of the 
family who had chosen America for his home, standing high in the esteem of his 
fellow citizens.  In both instances, Mrs. Teutsch was happily married, and 
though she had no children was a devoted aunt, and like a mother to her 
sisters' and brother's children.  In all the relations of life she bore her 
part well as wife, sister, aunt, neighbor, friend.  Her charities were 
unnumbered.  Her activities as president of the Ladies Aid Society were a 
blessing to Jewish orphans.  Temple Sinai enjoyed her beneficence.

Now, all this side the grave is over, and those who loved her have only her 
dearness and her loss over which to weep.  These have our sympathy.

Besides her husband, she leaves four sisters, Mrs. Jos. Perlinsky and Mrs. 
Nathan Hiller of Canton, Miss., Mrs. Mary Meyer and Mrs. Hattie Hartson of New 
Orleans, and one brother, Emanuel Mayer of Baton Rouge.  Mrs. A.M. Michel of 
St. Francisville and Dave M. Harson of this place are among the many  nieces 
and nephews, who all loved her as never aunt was loved.

The funeral took place, Thursday morning at 10 o'clock in Hebrew Rest, three 
miles from St. Francisville.
