Misses Margie and Aline Abbot,
who lett here q few days ago for
McComb City, were quarantined at
the Mississippi State line. We
copy the following account from
the Kentwood, La, Commercial:
Several persons who held health
certificates were taken of the trains
at the State line Monday, aud
among the number were Misses
Margie and Aline Abbot, Of Nc
Comb City. The young ladies
were cared for at the Banner Hotel.
The Misses Abbots had been visit
ing at Covington, not Ocean
Springs, Is some one enormously
reported, and were on their way
home. Some of our citizens were
much excited over the erroneous
reports in regard to the young
ladies. Mr.. Abbot will immedi-
ately file suit against the Missls-
sippi authorities and will in all
probability recover damage-at
ieaat he ought to, Is he took the
precaution TO telegraph ahead be-
fore the young ladies' started, and
was told they could pass the line
IN their certificates.

NO QUARANTINE.

As will be seen by the proceed
ings Of the Board of Aldermen, in
another column, it has been de-
cided rot to declare = quarantine
against New Orleans or any other
place. This is in keeping with
the past history Of Covington, as
our town has never quarantined,
even when the yellow fever was
epidemic in New Orleans, and
people were dying by the hundreds
every day. Our town and parish
have always enjoyed a remarkable
immunity from contagious diseases.
the very few deaths from this cause
which ever occurred here having
been imported. Besides this, the
very few cases which have occurred
in New Orleans, a city of nearly
800, 900 inhabitants, and the very
low death rate, shows that the
present disease is of a very mild
type. Onr people, with very few
exceptions, are not the least bit
alarmed, and unless the fever in
the city becomes of a very virulent
and malignant type, no further
action will be taken in the matter.

s'Tlle Florida Parishes. y

Below We reproduce: from the
P,cayune, . short history describ-
ing the origin Ut the Florida par
ishes. Since that time, however,
the parishes OF East Feliciana, Liv-
lngston. Tangipah0a and Washing
ton have been formed, and now
what are COMMONLY called the
Florida parishes are comprised OF
st. Helena, Livingston. rangipa-
hoa, Washington and st. Tammany:
10 the year 1910 Bayou SARA was
still in the possession Of the Spanish
authorities 40 being part Ut the
province Of West Florida. which.
although claimed by the United
States - = par. Of the territory
of Louisiana purchased from *rance
in 1903, was still occupied by the
Sp:niards. In the year 1910 the
people Of Bayou Sara and its
vicinity, made restless by the delay
Of the United States in expelling
the tiresome Spaniar,ls, revoated
against the Spanish authority. and
marched an armed force against
tie Spanish fort ut Baton Rouge aud
captured it.
Having secured ibis success, the
revolters declared themselves IN in.
dependent state under tue name Of
the state of West Florida, and sent
to Washington 10 request the
United States government to annex
their country to the United States.
Pres,dent Madison, who WAS then
the President OF The United States.
replied to them that their territory
already belonged to the United
States, ~ it had been acquired by
the latter from France by the terms
Of the treaty Of purchase with
France, and that they formed part
OF the American district Of Florida,
winch was a part OF the territory Of
Orleans. The President then sen:
orders to Governor Claiborne,
governor Of the territory Of Orleans,
to take possession OF the region
which the revolution Of the inhabi-
tante Of Bayou Sara had wrested
from the Spanish authority. Gov
ernor Claiborne marched with Z
body Of militia to St. Erancisville,
aud on the seventh day Oi
December, 1910, having met
with no opposition from the people
Of the region, took possession OF the
entire country in the name OF the
United States. The new district 81
Florida thus formed comprised u
the parishes Ut Felicians, FAT Baton
Rouge, st. Helena and st. Tammany,
are sometimes called the ''Florids
Parishes. At the time these
military and political events in the
history Of Louisiana were In pro-
gress, Spain was engaged In va!
with the Emperor Napoleon l, and
hence could not we'll give her at-
ton to the maintenance Of her pre-
tended claims TO continued owner
ship Of West Florida clsims, which
she impudently had maintained
since The year 1908. causing 10 the
United States = great deal Of tr0a bic
by her persistency in her pretsn'
siOns.
