Julian Bernstein Succumbs After Long Illness

Last Rites Conducted In Monroe Monday Afternoon

After an illness of several years, Julian Bernstein, 73, died at the family
residence here Sunday night.  The remains were carried to Monroe Monday where
funeral services were held in the Mulhearn Funeral Home at 3 p.m. with Rabbi
F. K. Hirsch, of Temple B'Nai Israel, officiating.  Interment was in the
Monroe Jewish Cemetery.

Mr. Bernstein had been ill for a number of years and for the past few days had
been in a critical condition.  He was born in Montgomery, La., and was the son
of the late Philip and Rosalie Bernstein.  He was educated in the public
schools of New Orleans and was later associated in the mercantile business
with his uncle, Morris Bernstein, who operated the first store in Winnfield. 
After his uncle retired from business in 1900, Mr. Bernstein became engaged in
the conducting of a general real estate business in Winnfield which he managed
until his health failed several years ago.

He is survived by one brother, Rudolph Bernstein of Monroe, and one sister,
Miss Nettie Bernstein, of Winnfield, besides a number of nephews and nieces.

Preceding him in death were two brothers, Arnold Bernstein, mayor of Monroe
for many years, and Henry Bernstein, a prominent attorney in Monroe, and a
sister, Mrs. Kaliski, of Monroe.
