"DOUBLE FUNERAL TOMORROW"

"There will take place in this city tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon at 5 o'clock the funerals of Mr. and Mrs. Junius Reux, Jr. who died at their home on Lameuse street at an early hour Friday morning. Funeral services will be conducted at the home and interment will be in the Biloxi cemetery. The funeral of Mr. and Mrs. Reux was first set for this afternoon at 5 o'clock, but relatives thought that Mr. Cox, who has been away traveling, would arrive in time to attend it on Sunday. Later advices are to the effect that he cannot reach here until tomorrow afternoon at 7 o'clock. The funeral will be held at the appointed hour, however, for which a brother of Mrs. Reux will arrive in time to attend."
