Biloxi Weekly Herald on 22 March 1890
"A Hero at Rest"

"In the death of Dr. A. Castaned, a prominent and distinguished figure passed 
away on Sunday last. He was a man among ten thousand and our citizens who 
remember the terrible scourge of 1878 can well bring to mind the heroic services 
that he rendered. His first visit to Biloxi was at the earnest solicitation of 
Mrs. Eliza Desporte to attend Chas. Quave who was suffering from small pox in 
1874. He endeared himself to the people here and was induced to remain, leaving 
a grand practice at Mobile. He was a man of noble qualities and his charities 
were innumerable He was buried on Monday at the Biloxi cemetery, Father Bally 
officiating. A wife and child mourn his loss and have the sympathy of all who 
knew him. While not a rich man he leaves his bereaved widow in comfortable 
circumstances. His memory will long be revered in Biloxi."

Additional Comments:
Antoine Castaned was born in 1815 in Louisiana.  He was married to Sophie Cuevas 
(1848-1923).
