AN UNFORTUNATE TRAGEDY.

Our community was shocked to hear
on Monday evening last that a tragedy
had occurred at Bayon Goula BY which
citizen Of this parish had lost his
life.
The facts Of the case, as elected
from the witnesses before the Parish
Court, arc rs follows:
Some time in the beginning Of last
February, while DR.. A. .B. Smell was
sitting in his office ut :Mr. Viallon's
Drug store. in Bayou GOula, reading
newspaper, he was suddenly inter
rupted by an attack from Mr.. l.. A.
Courtade, who abused the doctor with
most violent language and accused him
Of having insulted his wife.
The doctor took the matter az c0Olly
as possible under the circumstances,
and in reply to Mr.. Courtade's abuse
said, You are crazy, sir, 60 away and
let me alone.' Mr.. Courtade drew a
dirk knife, and were ii not for Mr..
Walton and other bystandea, DR..
Smell would have received bodily
harm. Subsequently, ilS the montl, Of
May. Mr.. Conrtade posted DR.. Smell
on tho post Of the gate Of the Catholic
Church yard, branding him as n
scoundrel and q coward. On ono
occasion DR.. Smell was warned away
from the Warehouse Of .lno. u. MUIR
rell, Esq.,-a place where tie doctor
was in the habit Of stopping nearly
every day to rest aud read tho papers
the persons adyising:him not to
stop, saying that Mr.. uonrtado was
in the private Office Of MI; Murrell and
appeared very much excited and rs If
waiting and looking f9r some one.
The friends Of DR.. Smell knowing that
q feud existed between him and Mr..
Courtade expected a difficulty would
occur, hence the warning. DR.. Smell,
laboving under q continues appre-
hension Of danger, prepared himself
to meet his adversary Should he lie
attacked, but constantly avoided 4
a meeting. On the morning If Sept.
Is, DR.. Smell was compelled to visit
several sick patients in bayou Goula.
While on a visit to a Mr.. Comeaux,
who was quite i'll, no was much sur
prised to see in the street., Mr.. l.. A.
Courtade, as it were, waiting for him.
On getting into the street q colloquy
ensnel between the DOCTOR and Mr..
Courtade, which ended IN both draw
ing pistols and both firing almost
simultaneously. Mr.. Cturtade was
wounded ut the first fire ;and he en-
deavored to retreat into stle yard of
Mrs. Landry. The doctor fred two
more shots, the last of i'lich We be-
lieve proved fatal. In short time
Mr.. Courtale was {orpse. Tho
whole affair not having listed ten Sc
conds, according to testi 1ony OF wit
nesses on trial before thtl Court.
David N. Barrow, Eii]., was en-
ployed by relatives Of thu deceased to
assist Mr.. Rills in the . prosecution
and right ably was this side Of the
case presented.
Messrs. Wales e. Hebjrt were tho
lawyers for the defense, snd it is SCI
dom that it has been OH good for
tune to hear u more clog lent piece of
oratory than escaped FROM the lips of
Geo. Wales, Esq, on tlfs occasion.
Judge Cole, after reviewing tho
testimony, decided that; the killing
was in self defense and discharged
