BOOK LOVER DIES; OF GREAT RENOWN
Jose Delgado y Arango, Bibliophile of International Reputation, who Served in Spanish Navy with Admiral Cervera, Passes Away.
Delgado y Arango, a bibliophile of international renown, who served in the Spanish navy with the late Admiral Cervera forty-three years ago. died yesterday afternoon at 1:45 o’clock in Covington. The body was brought to this city, and the funeral will be held this afternoon at 4 o'clock from his residence, 1418 Hospital street.
Mr. Delgado y Arango was well known as the manager of Goldthwaite's book store at Canal street and Exchange alley. But it was not so generally known that he enjoyed an enviable reputation among students the world over as an authority on old books and rare prints. He was widely read, taking a deep interest in the folk-lore of foreign countries. There was no more reliable authority on the history of Louisiana during the Spanish regime than Mr. Delgado y Arango, and he was always consulted by Northern writers who visited this city for the purpose of procuring material. As an antiquarian he paid particular attention to old maps, and some valuable specimens of this ancient art passed through his hands.
Mr. Delgado y Arango was noted not only as a scholar, but as a cosmopolite of attainments. En voyage as an officer of the Spanish navy, he came to New Orleans in 1873, without warning that Cupid was lying in ambush for him. He tarried in the port for a very good reason, and in due course of time was married to Miss Corinne Goldthwaite. Since then he traveled far and wide, but always returned to the home of his first love.
A linguist of no mean ability, Mr. Delgado y Arango was equally at home in English, French, and Spanish. He was a native of Seville, and always kept in touch with his countrymen, but his friendships were not restricted to Spain. He bad friends in all parts of the world.
Mr. Delgado y Arango was sixty-five years old, and is survived by his wife. There are no children.
