After an illness of several weeks, Mrs. Jas. C. Ball died, Saturday morn- ing, in St. Louis, at thejhome of her daughter, Mrs. Clarence Dorsey. There had been hopes of her recovery to the last, but her heart finally gave way. The body was brought home for burial, and the funeral services took place In Grace Church and Cemetery at four o'clock, Monday afternoon. Many per:. sons were present from town and country, and among them was a num- ber of colored people from the family home, Troy plantation, who had known only kindness at her hands. Mrs. Ball was fifty-four years, three months and eighteen days old and was a daughter of Dr. Henry Perkins, a notable physician of days before the war and the 70's. The family was a wealthy one and owned all of what is now known as Star Hill, but was ruin- ed by the war. Brought up amidst more strenuous circumstances, Mrs. Ball obeyed the injunction "Let cheer- fulness abound with industry." She was a never-tiring home-maker, a good wife and mother, a kind neighbor and friend. She leaves her husband, two daughters, Mrs. C. H. Murphy and Mrs. Clarence Dorsey, and two sons not yet arrived at man's estate, Perkins and Ben Ball. Mrs. Ben Hill of St. Louis Is her sister. Feeling hearts trust that they who mourn will in due time feel the comfort of the thought that her life's journey has ended in sweet vales of rest.. ERRATUM. The letter quoted in last issue as from Mr. Morris Burgas should have been credited to Mr. Morris Wolf. In taking it over the telephone, the mis- apprehension occurred. His relatives are advised that Mr. Burgas and family, who are now in Germany, expect to sail Oct. 17th, if possible for their home in New Orleans. AN OLD RESIDENT COMES "HOME" On Monday afternoon at half past two o'clock, the mortal remains of Mrs. Alice Elizabeth Thompson, widow of John C. Lombard, were brought here and laid away in Grace Cemetery. Her death took place at her home near Covington, La., Saturday, Sept. 12. She had complained of not feeling well that night, but insisted on her son's goTg.. to bed, which he did, hearing nothing further from her during the night. But when she did not arise at her usual hour, next morning, Mr. Lombard, on going to her bedside, found that she had been dead sdveral hours. The end seemed to have come peacefully from. a heart attack. Mrs. Lombard was in her seventieth year, and if we mistake not, was a native of West Feliciana, and had lived here a part of her life. She became a widow in 1872. but spent ten years of- her married life and widowhood here. Later she lived m Plaquemine and New•O Orleans, and more recently in Coving- ton. Her son, John Slack Lombard, and her daughter, Lillie, now Mrs. Henry Brittan of Atlanta, Ga., w-er devoted to their mother, and were the pride and comfort of her life. Her brother, Mr. Albert Thompson, is a- prominent planter of Grant parish. Her sister is Mrs. George Wilcox of St. Francieville, and her occasional visits here kept all the old ties of kindred and friendship intact, so that: it was appropriate that she should be brought back to the well-remembered scenes and laid to rest beside her- mother and the husband of her youth. On Sunday, Rev. Mr. Skardon men -:. tioned to his congregation the neces-' sity of consulting him before making arrangements for baptisms, marriages or funerals, in order to be sure that he <1 had no conflicting engagements. The. importance of this course is apparent; to all who give the matter a moment' • thought. Careful and Courteous Service of all Cus. tomers Guaranteed....
