The news of the sudden death of W. L. Rue which occurred at his home in Lake
Arthur early Wednesday morning came as distinct shock to his many friends
here.  Mr. Rue spent last weekend here and left Monday for Lake Arthur.  He
stopped overnight en route arriving home at 12 o"clock Tuesday night and died
about thirty minutes later of heart failure.

Immediately upon receipt of the news of Mr. Rue's death Mr. Max Thieme left
for Lake Arthur and accompanied the body back to St. Maurice where interment
was made.

Mr. Rue for the past several years has operated a shingle mill at St. Maurice
and has hosts of friends in this parish whom he has made by his congeniality
and friendly spirit.  He left St. Maurice early in the fall to make his home
in Lake Arthur where he established a business.

He leaves a wife and five children.
