Monroe, La., May 6. - There died in this city last evening at 8:30, after a lingering illness of several weeks, Green L. Batte, one of Monroe's leading druggists. The deceased located in Monroe fifteen years ago, and worked behind the prescription case of Dr. A. B. Sholars for several years. He then formed a partnership with the late Dr. John Calderwood, and after the doctor's death became associated with the Ouachita Drug company, which two years later consolidated with the Dr. T. O. Brewer Company. When Mr. F. G. Key gave up the drug business, Mr. Batte became a member of the firm Hilton, Batte & Co., succeeding him. Later on, Dr. Hilton withdrew and the firm became G. L. Batte & Co. In 1885 Mr. Batte married Mrs. Mona Getty, a sister of Mrs. Uriah Millsaps, who survives him. They had no children. Both of Mr. Batte's parents are dead. The late Dr. Batte, of Memphis, Tenn. was a brother. Howell Batte, another brother, married a daughter of Ex-Governor Lowry, of Mississippi, and is now living in Texas. Mr. Batte was a member of Western Star Lodge No. 24, F. and A. M., and a Woodmen of the World. He was also a confederate veteran and a member of Henry W. Allen Camp, U. C. V. He was born in Rankin county, Miss., fifty-two years ago, and had before coming to Monroe been in the drug business at Brandon. The remains were buried this evening at the city cemetery under the rites of the Masonic fraternity and the funeral services of confederate veterans, conducted by the Rev. E. N. Evans, chaplain of Henry W. Allen Camp.
