S. Rasn Wallis was born in Terrebonne
parish, December ~, I843, and died in grea,
peace at his residence near Lafayette, La,
June ~, 1893.
Consumption, that great human destroyer,
had been gnawing at his vitals for months
past, and finally frail nature fell dead under
it. whitening power.
The custom is too prevalent to heap ex-
travagant eulogies upon the name of almost
any one after death, but too much will not
be said in the praise of the deceased. We
are told that he was model husband and
father, the very embodiment of truth aud
honor, and in all his business intercourse
with his fellowmen he was just, and his
name was without blot. In addition to
these sterling qualities, he was a devoted
amp consistent christian. Not in name and
form merely, but in deed and in truth. The
writer questioned him relative to his chris
tian experience before he became confined
to his house and bed, and again when ap-
preaching the end. and when only able to
talk in whisper, and he said, first and last,
that he was perfectly resigned to the Divine
will, and that there was not cloud between
him and heaven" He talked and sent back
words of cheer from the brink of the las,
river. It is trial to us all to lose such a
man, but it is comforting to know that he
has gone to a more genial cline where there
il no death, nor wasting disease, but ever
lasting health and life. II. ARMSTRONG.

| MARRIAGE
! An event which called forth gen.
eral interest in our little town, was
the wedding, last Tuesday, of Miss
Marie Robert, only daughter of Mr..
| and Mrs. J. r. Robert, and Mr..
Charles Heichelheim, of New Or
leans, who is now assistant in the
public school at this place. The
marriage was solemnized in the
presence of large concourse of
friends, at a grand nuptial mass at
St. Peters Church, Carencro, by
the pastor, Rev. F. B. Laforest.
The altar was beautifully decorated
and illuminated for the occasion,
and the music furnished by the choir,
of which Mr.. Heichelhein has been
for years the efficient and faithful
organist, added brilliancy to the
| occasion.
The sweet young bride never ap-
peared to better advantage than she
did in her costume of pale, pink
China silk. and white lace, with the
bridal veil and flowers upon her
head, and as the sun, which burst
forth after several days of rain,
shone upon the bridal couple
at the altar, it was the opinion Of
loving and admiring friends that the
handsome groom while choosing his
help mate for her sweet womanly
attributes was, nevertheless, we'll
mated, even in appearance.
"All the world loves a lover"
says some old author, and during
the beautiful ceremony the hearts
of young and old beat in sympathy
with the happiness of these two, be-
cause they were new representatives
of the noble estate of Christian
! marriage. and, again, because they
are both so highly esteemed in our
community.
Mr.. and Mrs. Heichelheim start
ed couple of hours after the cere-
mony for New Orleans, on a visit to
the groom's mother, and upon their
return, few days after, took pos
session of their coy little home in
Carencro. Their friends wish them
heartily bon voyage through long
and happy married life. l.. y. r.

1t may be recalled that when c.

gone under, but on looking down
the bnyon a piece, they saw a black
object on the water, it was Tomba-
die leisurely floating down with the
current, apparently contented with
his surroundings. He was rescued,
and Aleck had saved his chum for
another escapade.
Aleck has got the stuff in him such
as make heroes, and he is going to
make his mark. Such bravery, in
telligence, and coolheadedness would
do credit to a man.

A Little Hero.

Tuesday last, Aleck, the little 8
year old son of DR.. H. d. Guidry,
with his chum Tombadie, a little
negro of the same age, escaped from
the parental roof and went down
to the bayou to take swim. Now,
let it be known that whatever Aleck
would do Tombadie would join in
a kind of Robinson Crusoe and
Friday partnership. Aleck can
swim like fish and Tombadie can
not. Aleck started out for the op-
posite shore and when in midstream
turned his head and to his horror
saw that Tombadie had tried to fol-
low him, and had got out of his
reach and was making desperate
efforts to keep afloat. Aleck know
ing Tombadie could not swim,
turned and swan back, reaching the
shore threw a piece of wood to the
negro who made catch for it but
missed. Nothing discouraged Aleck
got another piece of wood, threw it,
and this time hit Tombadie, who
was fast sinking, but in his wild eff
forts managed to grasp the piece of
wood, and held on with grim des-
peration, and it kept him afloat.
Aleck hailooed to Tombadie to keep
cool, and started off for help. which

and to their painful surprise saw

Two individuals Of a decidedly

between Duson and Scott last Satur-

both fell short, and dropped in each

us that these parties should take

FRO" Our Regular Correspondent
There must be something wofully
deficient in the existing drainage
laws, or some people are permitted
to do pretty much as they please.
t"Good roads" is the popular cry
of the day, not only in :his State,
but throughout the country. Any
one with reason can readily see that
| they can hope for little or no i'm
provement until certain laws are
enacted, or the present ones, if any
exist, are enforced. Laws that will
direct or compel each planter to
drain his own farm or plantation,
| and not depend upon diminutive
road bitches to convey water, that
a canal many times their size could
not adequately do: And people
should not be permitted to throw
up levees, or cut trenches across
public roads, where and when their
fancy dictates! In a rolling coun-
try like this. drainage could be
properly and easily maintained,
if only proper regard was shown
for the law of nature. 1t is ques-
ton whether the Police Jury would
have any authority in the matter,
but their is no doubt that the Grand
Jury could afford relief if the matter
was properly brought before them.
There is something wrong some
where, and no doubt there is a rene
dy, if the authorities would only
apply it.
