‘MRS. HELENA FRENTZ DEAD"

Her daughters are Mesdames Anna Meleine, Percy Irvin, T.J. Castannera, C.H. Bruce, Will Alberts of Pascagoula and Moss Point and Mrs. Phillip Rolls of Hattiesburg. Her sons are henry and August Frentz of Biloxi, Adolph Frentz of Pascagoula and George Frentz of Gulfport. Besides these she leave a large number of other relatives and a score of friends along the Mississippi Coast including many nephews and nieces, grand and great-grandchildren.
