CHARLES PERCY GUENARD, son of
J. S. Guenard aud Anna Purdy, died OF
Diptheria. August 10, 1892, at l2:3n a M,
aged 3years. months and days, at Lake
Providence La.
In the hour of sorrow and affiictlon like
that which has befalien the parents and
grandparents of the dear child whose name
heads this tribute to his memory, resigna-
tion to the will of Almighty God, who gave
and who hath taken away, must,be the first
duty of those who lament his early depart
ure from the scenes of this life.
Nevertheless until Time, the minissero of
God, shall have brought with it healing.t to
the grieved spirits Of those whose joy and
delight conferred in this cherished. and
beautiful and affectionate boy. the home
circles of his parents and relatives must
continue to feel deeply the loss of little
Percy, their life, their pride and their hope.
Divine mercy will bring that resignation
which, now human reason cannot under
stand; and when we shall think of our
loved Percy, as he is with the angels in
heaven.
IN this blessed hope and belief we who
mourn for him, yield him to the loving
arms of our Saviour and Redeelner, who
said ..Suifer little children to come unto
me-,
A tribute OF affection from little Percy's
GRANDFATHER.

Heretofore at the close Of each levee

Heretofore at the close of each leyee
season the contractors for sometime
past have been accustomed to turn
their mules into.thes PASTURES, of our
parish with herders to care for them
through the summer and until the
Ievee work began in the fall.
This course was to some extent ex-
pensive; .the pasturage had to be paid
for, together with an occasional feed
of corn AID oats 10 keep the mules up
idle for months, and the men who
cared for the several droyes night and
day had to be, fed and paid their
monthly stipend. This unthrifty
course drew LARGELY upon the amounts
that may have been made during the
busy season. to say nothing about the
large capital remaining unproduciive
for so long a time. We have often
wondered at the careless course pur-
sued by the contractors in this matter,
and OH inquiry have been repeatedly
told as reason therefor that the mules
mus: have rest after the laboriOus
winters work, and so it was and has
been for years until 1892.
The first break was made by Mr.. L.
L. Doran. manager for our friend
Jack McGinty. He moved out on the
Starlington place with his family,
mules &c, soon after the levee work
was finished and went to work with a
viii, planting corn and other products,
but no cotton In conversation with
Mr.. Doran this week he told US that
his mules are in fine fettle, that he had
made plenty Of corn, hay and proven
der to feed for the coming season, AMI
that the value of the feed at low
figure will go largely in excess of all
the expense that has been incurred.
Our friend McGinty pastured his
mules last year his bank account will
certainly show a difference between
this and last year, thanks to the
industry and good judgment of Mr.
Doran.
Mr.. O'Donnell with his family after
levee work was dcne, leased the Lake
View Hotel in town. and thus far they
have held things pretty evenly bal
anced Notwithstanding the duh times,
but his mules have been making
hay OH Tyrone, aud he has one hund-
red tons of the valuable proyender in
sight now. q
There were only three droves of
mules left in the parish that we know
of from the numerous works. We
have referred to two of them, The
other drove numbering between sixty
five and seventy belong to John
Scott s. Sons, one of the largest levce
contracting firms along the river.
These mules are out at pasture at no
small expense, and magnificent lot
Of animals they are.
Now. when it is well known that.
there are large quantities of rich land
ready for the plow uncultiyated in
our parish which could be secured
at very moderate price per acre. it
does seem strange that these gentlemen
would leave their mnles remain idle
at dead expense. How many BUSH
els of corn would such drove of
mules well handled make? At a low
figure $4,000. You can figure the
cost, and remember, that he who
makes one ear of corn grow where
none was growing, is public bene
factor.
