This paper is published in the town
Of Plaquedine. Iberville parish. BY
WIN. A. Bryan. We shall exchange

the memory OF this editor as being
the place where rests the remains o.
his sAiuted Mother, who was entomb
ed there within sound Of the rush
ing waters OF the mighty Mississippi
more than twenty years ago.

witness to the killing. and. from whs'
we saw, consider that Mr.. Jeter''
