Mrs.
Florence A. Goos, one of the old residents of Lake Charles,
passed away at her home in Mill street last night. The
deceased was sixty-nine years old. She had been ailing for the
past four years with
paralysis.
Mrs.
Goos was a native of New Orleans and would have celebrated her
sixty-ninth birthday next month. Her maiden name was Miss
Florence A. Flanders, and she was a daughter of the late
Captain W. C. Flanders. She was married in New Orleans to

since.
Mrs. Goos
is survived by two daughters, Mrs. A. F. Severs and Miss
Florence Goos, two grandchildren, Annie and Florence Beatty,
and one brother, W. W. Flanders. Besides these she was
connected more distantly with some of the leading families in
the state.
