Just as we predicted. the Police

We must here state that the people Of

provided 1t was not located below the
railroad bridge, but II seems rs
though their wishes were ignored
altogether, and that the Police Jury
would not listen to q single PROPOSE

no particular preference as to where
the ferry is located, yet in our ~opin~
