court here, the people TOOK off their
hats and cheered him. 1t is doubtful

ton in the State before. Again last
night, as Judge Battle entered the
opera house, he was applauded. Both

Mr.. Finlayson promptly declined the

This is of the Oldest houses in
town having been built about 1854 by
j. b. Cavailhez. 1t was originally
more than twice its present size, the
northern portion having been torn
down several years ago. Standing in
plain view entering town by the bayou
bridge, this old house with its steep
Canadian roof and high dormer win
dows was a conspicuous object, and its
absence will be missed. We feel all at
tachment for the building as this office
was in the northern portion of the
building for several years in the latter
part of the 70's.
