Following is a condensed statement
of the proceedings of the District
Court up to yesterday friday morn

The Lake Charles echo. [volume] (Lake Charles, Parish of Calcasieu, La.) 1876-1898, 1883-05-05

WELsH's STATION, La, May 2, 1888.
Editors Lake Charles Echo:
In your last issue you call for fig
ures from all parts of the parish in
regard to last years crop; also as to
the prospects for the present year. 1t
will certainly be advantageous to the
people of the parish for such informa-
to be published to the world, thus
letting thousands know the resources
and capabilities of this, the healthiest
parish in the state. As to the yield
of last year, | can say that such crops
as corn, sweet aud Irish potatoes, were
very plentiful for home consumption !;
while sugar and rice were made for
export, there being about 5000 bar
rels of rice shipped from this place
during the six months closing with
April, 80, 1888. In the writer's opip-
ion the cultivation of rice is destined
in the near future to be the leading
industry of southwest Louisiana. The
outlook for this years crop could not
be better; the average is considerably
increased, while the great majority of
farmers are well advanced with plant
ing. Fruit culture is also receiving
considerable attention As to local
affairs, the good people of Welsh's
station and vicinity have undertaken
to build a Catholic church, which will
add considerably in appearance to the
already attractive little town. More
anon, READER.
The Lake Charles echo. [volume] (Lake Charles, Parish of Calcasieu, La.) 1876-1898, 1883-05-05


The details of one of the most
miraculous escapes from death and
manning that ever came under the re-
porter's observation, are gathered from
a private letter received few days
ago by lady resident Of this place,
from Mr.. T. X. Singleton, formerly a
resident of this section, and well and
favorably known to all of our older
citizens. The letter is written from
Willow Branch, Coryell county, Texas,
and is as follows.
r. Il On Sunday, April Is,
a large congregation had gathered at
the neighborhood church for worship.
The lower story of the building not
being in repair, the upper floor had
been temporarily fitted up for hold
ing divine services, and to which the
congregation adjourned. Preaching
over, the congregation (which con-
sisted of over 200 souls) were dis
missed, and as is customary all adj

no one was seriously Injured. But
for one to look at the wreck, the dis,

Killed by lightning.

Mr. Louis Lorrain, a subscriber to
the Echo at Lacasine,, relates sad
accident Which occurred in his neigh
borhood, on the 9th ult., through
which Ursan Breaux, good citizen,
lost bis life. The unfortunate man
was attending to something in his
door yard, While a light shower Of rain
was falling, when tree near which
he was engaged was struck by light
ming, the electric current causing Mr..
BIS instant death. Death is sad, uD-
der any aud all circumstances, but to
be thus suddenly, and without the
slightest warning, hurled into eternity,
seems doubly SO.
