The Purcell Register - June 18, 1914

Mrs. Napoleon Boudreau, age 50 years, died at her home on Canadian Avenue 
after a lingering illness of several weeks.  The dreaded disease, pellegra, 
was announced by attending physicians, dispelled all hope of a final recovery.  
The patient bore her illness with patience and fortitude and was surrounded by 
her family, her sisters and brothers, and many friends, when the end came 
Wednesday afternoon at 2:30, who did everything the mortal hands could do to 
make the last hours on earth comfortable.

Fortified by all the sweet consolation of her relations, having received at 
the hands of Father Van Wees, the last sacraments of the Catholic church - 
Extreme Unction - the patient sufferer died the death of one well prepared to 
appear before her God.

Besides her faithful husband, Napoleon Boudreau, the deceased leaves to mourn 
her loss two daughters, Mrs. W.C. Lovell, of Memphis, Tenn., Mrs. W.C. Cooley 
of Pauls Valley and two sons, Theogil and Henry, one brother, J.H. Marquis, and 
three sisters, Mrs. Wm. Peltier of Shawnee, Mrs. John Boudreau, and Mrs. Robert 
Peltier of Purcell.  Also a host of friends.

The funeral took place Thursday morning at 9 o'clock from the Catholic church, 
where Rev. Father Van Wees officiated, offering up a requiem mass for the repose 
of the soul of the deceased. Interment took place at Hillside Cemetery Friday.
