The venerable Judge Louis A. Duyigneaud
was another witness. He was member OF
the Municipal Council Of the Third Munici
paitY in 1897 On the third Of July Of that
year it was ne who introduced the resolution
on file providing for the building Of the
market. Judge Duvigneaud said that he was
now seventy-one years old and that since his
early childhood he had always known the
spot as the "Place BretOnne," and that it was
to meet public necessity at the time and On
the representation Of Mr.. JOS. d'Hemecourt,
then surveyor Of the Third Municipality, that
the plot was public place, that he Judge
Duvignpaud) had introduced the resolution
providing for the erection OF the market.
Mr. l.. II. Pile, deputy city surveyor, now
testified After thoroughly examining the
| parchment plan and applying it TO the book,
| he said that there was not the least doubt in
| his mind that it was the deposit plan abb
| stracted from the records Of Pedescauz, In
| fact he could swear To it as much as he could
swear to anything OF the kind. 1t was plain
| to his naked eye that the words place Bre-
| tonne" had been effaced as well as the lines
indicating marshy lands. He could see a
| part Of 'fB" and two MS with the assistance
Of II magnify ing glass Of small power, and he
| had no doubt that under the microscope the
fact would be plain beyond question, that
the erasures had been made. He knew the
plan very we'll besides, and from having made
several copies Of it was satisfied that thf
words mentioned and the words 'Terrains de
la Corderie" were On the face Of the parch
ment. He did not have any OF the copies
