James H. Milling, after a brief and painful illness, died at his residence
opposite Monroe on the first instant with cerebro spinal meningitis. He was
in his 49th year and apparently in the full vigor of splendid manhood. He
was a native of Ouachita parish and did her honor by his business capacity,
his untiring energy, and his exemplary habits. The parish honored him with
the office of Sheriff and Clerk of the District Court. He acquitted himself
with credit in both. For the past few years he has been the general freight
agent of the Railroad Company, to which was added the duty of book-keeper in
the office. He was a superior scribe, and painstaking and accurate in
figures. He never tired of hard work and never cared for anybody else's
business. Milling's duty was Milling's work and he performed it with al the
energy and skill within him. He was a man of family and leaves a wife and
five children. From his labor he has educated the older children and
accumulated property sufficient to make them all comfortable. He was an
estimable citizen and a worthy brother. He has gone the way of earth-too
early, according to man's idea, but in answer to a call that could not be
delayed.
