The Weekly Messenger. (St. Martinsville [i.e. St. Martinville] La.) 1886-1948, May 18, 1901, Image 2

DIED.

Wednesday evening the 15th inst., at 5 o'clock, Mrs. Felix Voorhies, borne 
(sic) Modeste Potier, died at the home of her husband, in New Iberia, at the 
age of 57 years and 4 months.

Mrs. Voorhies had been sick for several months, and her death was not 
unexpected, but her noble character, her kind despositions (sic) had drawn 
around her a host of friends who esteemed and loved her and who daily 
inquired about her condition, and expressed their sympathies for her and her 
family, for they all knew the void that would be made in the home after her 
death.

Mrs. Voorhies was buried in St. Martinville, at five o'clock Thursday 
evening, and her remains were followed to the grave by a large concourse of 
sorrowing relatives and friends.
