Death of Antoine Therriault
Many friends of Antoine Therriault are mourning his sudden death. His noble character and sunny, buoyant nature endeared him to all. To his brothers and sister (Mrs. Adam Ouillette) in their sorrow the community at large extends it sympathy. To the wife and baby now journeying the dreary road from Tobacco, no words can convey the infinite sadness of their loss.
Antoine Therriault was born in Maine 35 years ago. He came to Montana and the Flathead valley in 1884, taking up a ranch at Tobacco in 1887, where he has since resided.
The cause of his death was heart failure following a severe attack of tonsillitis. He had been ill only three days preceding his death. All that a skillful physician and loving friends who were in constant attendance and were present when he died, could do, was done. But the kind loving husband, father and brother passed away.
Then came the sad journey down the dark waters of the river Kootenai. They by rail to Kalispell, where kind hands received the body and relieved the weary vigils of Charles Young, who accompanied the remains the entire distance.
The funeral will occur tomorrow Nov. 7, at 2 p.m. from the residence of his brother, Michael Therriault.
