      Mrs. Aug. Perres, Pioneer Resident, Passes Away

      Mrs. Auguste Perres, pioneer resident of Rayne, passed away at Sunday evening, February 28th, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. J. Frank Jeanmard, in Lafayette following a long illness.

      Mrs. Perres was Dolores Arenas, a native of Terrebonne Parish, and moved here with her husband shortly after their marriage over 45 years ago. At that time travel was still by stagecoach, and Rayne was a struggling crossroad village known as Pooperville then settled about 2 miles south of the present town. When the railroad came through the far-sighted residents of the village moved houses and all to the present location, and Mr. Perres opened a blacksmith shop here, prospered and accumulated considerable very choice real estate holdings. Mr. Perres preceded his wife in death five years ago.

      At the time of her death Mrs. Perres was 68 years 1 month and 7 days of age. She is survived by one daughter, Mrs. J. Frank Jeanmard of Lafayette, one son, Felix Perres of Rayne, and a niece, Mrs. E.C. Fremaux of Rayne. The body was viewed by a large number of friends and relatives Monday afternoon at the home of her son, Feli Perres, where it lay in state from 2 to 4 o'clock.
