Were They Poisoned

Last Friday night +. D. Lege jr
and Adam Broussard two young white
farmers living on the farm of F.
Despanet Lege,o n the west side of the
bayou about 3 miles from Abbeyille
died within a few hours of each other
after suffering great agony, DR.. w.
e.. Kibbe the attending physician, re-
garding the cases as very suspicious
presenting many of the symptoms of
%arsenical poisoning, reported them to
the coroner DR.. G. j. Edwards, who
proceeded to duly investigate the
case. Next morning a jury of in
quest vas impaneled and after a care
full hearing of a number of witnesses
the jury decided to order an autopsy
on the body Of one of the dead men,
Adam Broussard having died last was
selected as the subject and Coroner
Edwards opened the body in presence
of the jury and taxing therefrom, the
stomach entire, with its contents
and the larger portion of the right
liver, placed them in alcohol in a
hemetically sealed jar and forwarded
it by express to Prof. Metz of New
Orleans for chemical examination, to
discover II any traces of poison be
present. Until the return of this ex-
animation be had the inquest will not
be concluded, nor will the wild rumors
in circulation as to what lead to these
deaths be officially noticed. The
wives of the two men are also quite
ill tho the symptoms are by no means
SO marked. 1t is a sad affair and
nine little children are left orphaned
and at the mercy of a cold world.

This makes about a half a dozen
times the jail has been broken out Of
during the past year. and demons
trates the utter worthlessness of the
concern as a place for the safe keep
ing if prisoners. Under the circum-
stances, the best thing the police jury
can do is to have the sheriff keep his
prisoners in the jail at New Iberia or
Franklin, or have an armed guard
placed in the Jail yard eye ny night.
Possibly in that way a stop might be
put to the business of demolishing
the Jail and if the guard was vigilant
he might be able to kill some of the
