DEATII OF I.L L . LIlCE.
The entire neople of '1'.t. nss parish
':'ePI -t:OL d beyond expression on
(i eesd,"v icn the news came that Mr.
It. B. I,%ync(h had succumbed to an at
tack of pneumonia. His illness was
of short .luration and was unknown to
many friends Irtil his death was an
,io" uncd.
Mr. Lvno, was a native and life
i n" rebidenr of Tensas parish, and
wa= ..5 yar- -f age. In early man
hor.d he narripd Miss Rapp of Frank
ihn pari-h This union was blessed
with se:-en children, one of whom,
Miss Georgia Lynch, is a member of
the fannitv of the St. Joseph High
Sc School. All of his family was with
him when the end came.
Mr. Lynch .*ac one of the best citi
izens of thi- parish and was an hon
'est, conscientious man, a true friend
8 and good neighbor, a faithful and de
IE voted husband, a kind and Indulgent
c. father; his home was his paradise and
his greatest happiness was in direct
ew ing the youthful footstepsof his child
ren and training their young lives
rne that they might become good and use
ful men and women and lead useful
tie lives. In his death his family has msf
ar. fered irreparable lose, for he was
sk, truly a good husband and father, and
the parish has lost one of her best and
most useful citizens, one who was
ever active in the public welfare and
conseientious to the extreme in the
handlng of public funds. Por twelve
of years he represented his ward on the
(I Polles Jury and had just began his
on f .nrth term. Kind and gentle, but
strong and resolute, his word was his
bond He lived an honorable life and
on died without an enemy. Hypocrisy
It was toreign to hiR nature and he al
tle ways had the courage of his convic
tions and dared to do whatever he
be
be-ot thiought was right as God gave him
ot light to see it.
rn His remains were interred in the
family t nrial gound on Mound Bayou
" plantat,: , and were followed to the
grave b% a large concourse of friends
from nearly every every section of
the parish all eager to show their
love and respect for a good and just
man and to blend their tears with
nol those of his loved ones, who grieve
me the loss of husband and father. May
the they find comfort in his upright life
h1I. and noble character and may his child
di- ren ever strive to follow In their
old father's footsteps and wear woithily
Sto the mantel of honesty, truthfulness
hall and fidelity that were the especial vir
rin tues of their departed sire, and
uo"f which he has bequeathed untarnisned
lihA unto them
