was occupied by Senator Laplace. while
the other wing was occupied by Caillet.
About 8 o'clock in the evening SEN
ator Laplace and Miss TroXler were
seen for the last time by Caillet These
three occupants of the house retired
about 9 O'Clock, and hardly an hour
later Caillet heard Senator Laplace
call to him: Get up. we have got to
90 out" Caillet jumped from his bed
and began dressing. Senator Laplace
had previously gone to the froAt gal
lery. which is reached from his room
by narrow walk.
Before Cailet could dress he heard
voices in the front yard At that time
he heard Senator Laplace cry out.
voice said: Lets get the other He
thought that meant him, and he ran
down the back stairs and out into the
field He had looked out Of a window
and saw some thirty-five men drag
cling his employer. These men seemed
to be masked, but he could not see If
they were white or black. That was
the last he saw of Senator Laplace
until 4 O'Clock in the morning, when
he found the body Of the planter lying
fiat upon his back in the public road
directly in front of the house. The
house is situated about 700 feet from
the road.
Callet thought that the mob wanted
to lynch him also. and for that reason
hid in the fields. When the plantation
| bells rang in the morning he returned
| to the quarters, where eight families
are living, and he called the people to

/ wide lane which separates the laborers'
! cabins from the residence, and they
walked down the pathway to the road
7 in front Of the levee. The levee was
crossed and the batture searched, but

! found His rooms had been previously
searched and Miss Troxler's room was
also found to be empty. When they

body. II was then hardly o'clock II

reason it is believed that the arms
were tied at the elbows.
The startling facts connected with
the horrible shooting were all cor
roborated by Mr.. Troxlor in one of the
most dramatic stories heard in years.
He related the little incidents which
paved the way to the assassination.
He was so terrlDly shocked at the dis
covery that he knew not what to do.
Then he decided to leave the place.
but his eldest daughter refused to ac
company him. He blamed the deceased
for this resolution but expressed sin
cere regret at the occurrence. Sick
ness Aad kept him confined to his room
all Tuesday and Tuesday night. He
knew nothing until his daughter
pounded upon the door heartbroken
and begged to be allowed to return.
During his story he broke down and
cried like a child. He pointed out his
position, a poor man with eight chill
dren, who were motherless, without a
home, without money, and crushed by
a sorrow THAI is more terrible than
even his sympathetic friends can re-
alize. Subsequently Troxler applied to
Judge Rost for a position as stable
keeper and asked for the use OF a
building to place his family.
The people Of the parish believe that
If the facts as given are true, the ac-
ton Of tine mob had some excuse, but
they condemn the cowardly means
adopted to accomplish this result. Mrs.
Laplace, widow Of the dead senator,
drove fifteen miles from Laplace plan
tation with her children, and accom-
panied the remains to New Orleans.
While Senator Laplace owned the Or
mond plantation, he spent most Of his
time at LaBlace station, in st. John
parish. and only left that point the
Sunday before the tragedy.

When Lord Kenyon was chief Jus

members how the chief justice would

since Lord Kenyons time has been
humming with schemes of legal educa-
ton, yet, strange to say, no one has
emphasized the importance Of follow
ing cases in court, or reporting them
as an education regimen for law stu
dents. The benefit is immense. The

QUICK VENGEANCE
WREAKED ON A LOUISIANA
STATE SENATOR.
Particulars of the Tragedy That Re-
Gently Startled Whole Parish
Wealth, Color or Social Position Not
barriers to Mob Rule.

The killing of Senator Basile La
place by an armed mob near New Or
leans recently has naturally created
very intense excitement throughout st.
Charles parish, where the crime was
perpetrated. Mr.. Lapla ,e has not been
resident of that parish very long, but
his long association with state and dis
trict politics made him a familiar fig
ure before the public. The method of
execution adopted by the crowd was,
to say the least, cowardly, but the
provocation rumored is given by the
people as justification for action of the
mob.
About year or two ago Senator La
place came from St. John parish to the
old Ormond plantation, which he pur-
chased from James McCutcheon. Mr.
Laplace at the time of the purchase
found that Edmond Troxler and his
family of eight children were living
in portion of the old plantation resi-
dence. These occupants were not dis
turbed, On the contrary, Mr.. TroXler
became the manager of the estate and
superintendent the planting of this
years rice crop. Among these eight
children, who are motherless, there is
one who has arrived at the age OF
womanhood. Miss Lydia is a woman
of very attractive presence, and con-
slant association lack of worldly
knowledge and a desire for the ad-
yantages to be secured by more for
tunate financial conditions paved the
10 ;,,t fah in, hA
terrible crime. Mr.. Troxler is a man
who has not been placed in a position
to learn many of the ways of the
world. He often warned his young
daughter of the dangers which might
arise from too constant ompanionship.
She paid no attention to the warning,
for she was only a simple country
maiden and could not thoroughly un-
derstand.
Some weeks ago Mr. Troxler was
taken sick with rheumatism, the result
Of the long labors in the rice field.
One day he held a long talk with his
daughter, and at the same time told
her that he would leave the plantation
and find some safer place for his chill
dren to live. Miss Lydia, later in the
day, wrote a reply to her father, tell
ing him she did not intend to leave
Ormond plantation at all, but would
| remain where her heart dictated. That
morning, about 8 o'clock, Mr.. TroXler
and the seven remaining children de-
parted They were driven to'tne store
kept by Numa Zerangue, which is sit
uated a mile further down the road.
Zerangue is a brother-in-law of Trox-
ler's.
Miss TroXler remained at the planta-
ton house with Basile Laplace and
Augustine Caillet who is timekeeper.
The plantation residence is rather
oddly constructed There are two
brick wings built separately from the
main body OF the house, which is a
long building, extending parallel with
the river bank. The wing to the right

two members of the family (Robert
Beltran and Albert Laplace) about
O'Clock. A heavy rain came up during
the morning. and the body lay facing
the heavens, which the mud spattered
keartlessly.
Some time after the mob had carried
out its terrible plan Miss Troxler re-
pented and walked over the mile OF
country road to where her father and
sisters had gone. 1t was near mid
night when she knocked on the closed
door, But she was admitted. and is
now living with the family upon whom
she brought such sorrow.
Caillet, after discovering the body
of Senator Laplace, rode down to the
residence of Judge Rost, four miles
down the river, and from Judge Rost's
house the members of the L.aplace fam
lily were notified in New Orleans.
Judge Rost also notified the coroner of
the parish and before noon an inquest
was held. 1t was found that the sena-
tor had been killed by Winchester
ball that was fred directly against the
back. Ills coat had been burned and
the bullet penetrated the intestines
and was fattened against a revolver
in the right pocket of his trousers.
The mob had evidently overlooked this
weapon.
From the few facts possible to gath
er, it is believed that Senator Laplace
was induced to leave the house. He
walked down the yard and was seized
by the members of the mob. His

was found by the body. There were
