We are panied to announce the death
of Hon. Willis Prescott, State Senator
from this district, which occurred at
the Hotel Dieu, New Orleans, last We'd
nesday, at the age OF 81 years. He had
been in bad health for long time, and
had recently visited Sour Lake, Texas,
in search of relief; returning, he went
to New Orleans for treatment, few
weeks before his death. He was buried
yesterday at his old home and among
his relatives and friends in Washing
ington, La. Several years ago he rep
resented this parish in the State legis-
lature, and was elected to the Senate,
from this district, on the Democratic
ticket in 1888. He was a widower,
and left several children; his wife a
daughter of the late Col. William Of
futt, died several years ago. Senator
Prescott was greatly liked by those who
had the pleasure of his acquaintance.
He was gentlemanly, sociable and en-
tertaining and no one could spend an
hour with him without having pleas
ant recollections of him. His family
and relatives have our warmest sympa-
thies in their sore bereavement.

Friday afternoon, last week, ]. P.
Close was shot and killed by D. P.
Saizan, at the latter's store at Barry's
Landing on Bayou Courtableau, nine
miles from Opelousas. Close lived in
that neighborhood. He had been to
Opelousas that day and he and COM
panion went in a buggy to Saizan's
store. While his companion went in
to the store, Close remained in the
buggy. We have not been able to
learn if any alteration took place at
the time between Saizan and Close,
but Saizan shot him with both bar
rels of his gun. Saizan came to Ope-
lousas and surrendered. He was let
to bail in the sum of 5000 till yester-
day when the preliminary examination
was to begin. The plea viii be self
defense. There was a feud between
the parties, and the death OF one OF
both was expected by those cognizant
Of the facts.
