Death of Mrs. John Peters.
N. I. Enterprise.

Mrs. John Peters, the wife of the venerable manager of the Keystone 
plantation, died last Sunday morning at 7 o'clock. She was 75 years of age 
and had resided with her honored and highly esteemed husband at Keystone in 
St. Martin parish, for the past 22 years. Though an invalid for most of the 
period of her residence in our vicinity, yet to the few who had the 
privilege of her acquaintance she always gave evidence of most devoted 
Christian womanhood. Her life being shadowed with sorrow, she was debarred 
for many years from an active participation in social affairs, but in the 
closer relationship of the home circle, she ever enjoyed the friendship and 
affection of all about her. Mrs. Peters was buried from the Episcopal church 
in New Iberia on Monday, at 10 A. M., and a large number of friends followed 
her remains to their last resting place. Mr. Peters, who suffered the loss 
of his only daughter less than three years ago, is now called upon to bear a 
double share of bereavement. In his many afflictions, he has the sympathy 
and condolence of our entire community. - A Friend.
