inspect the boilers. The insurance
company acting upon Mr.. Bittgood's
refused to insure the boilers.
1t then became necessary for the
town to employ an expert and the
services of Mr.. G.. A. Gaines were
engaged. After thorough exami
nation Mr.. Gaines Condemned the
boilers in every respect. Suisse
quently the Council adopted a reso-
luton in line with the reports of
Bittgood and Gaines and called
upon the Consolidated Company to
put in new boilers and to remedy
certain defects. Some days later
an official of the company came to
Lafayette with Prof. Creighton, a
recognized authority from. Tulane
University. Although Prof. Chreigh-
tons test was made under writ
ten agreement that copy of the
result of the test would be fur
nished the town, the company posi-
lively refused to do.
Two or three days after Prof.
Creighton's test, the Consolidated
company took steps to dismiss its
suit which had been filed in the
court of this parish. By prompt
action the towns attorneys pre-
by filing it's answer in unconventional
demands, thereby doing away with
the necessity of going to New Or
leans to sue the company.
The trial of the suit was taken up
on the st Of September and partially
heard and for certain causes was
not concluded until last January.
During the trial of the case, Ex-
perts Bittgood and Gaines, and
others including Printz, the engin-
eer who superintendent the construc-
ton of the plant for the company
testified to the absolute worthless
ness of the boilers.
The judgment of the court estab-
fishes the correctness of the towns
contention that the infamous Eel
boilers are not of the kind provided
for IN the contract, acqulttlng the
Consolidated Company, however,
of the charge Of fraud and collision.
The decision rejects the claim of the
Consolidated company for $1,000
and gives the town judgment fo1
$500, which is tantamount tC
$4,000. The judgment reserves to
the town all its rights to sue on the
bond furnished by the company.

THE TOWN WINS.
Judge DebaillOn's Decision in
the Suit of the Consolidated
Company VS.. the Town.

The recent decision of Judge De-
baillon in the above named suit
should be cause for general con-
graduation among the people of the
town. The decision is a signal vic
tory for the town as well as
triumph of justice. The town has
been very badly treated by the con-
tracing company and the consult
ing engineer, r. r. Zell, and The
Gazette, in common with the tax
payers of the community, rejoiCes
over the result.
For the benefit of those who are
not informed as to the case we will
give short history of it.
The original contract price of the
plant was $50, 900 in bonds, which
was to be paid in five installments.
After the contract was made the
contractors informed the Council
that they had found a purchaser for
the bonds who was willing to take
the whole amount. The contrac-
tors argued that it would be to the
interest of all concerned to dispose
of all the bonds at one time. After
due deliberation the Council agreed
to this and the bonds were converted
into $50, 900 in cash, which the
contractors were willing to accept
in payment This arrangement
sd payments and $500 for the last.
Under this agreement the plant was
built. After the trial of the plant,
during the thirty days fixed by the
contract, it was found that there
were certain defects in the plant.
The Consolidated Engineering Com
pany promised that if the town
took charge of the plant it would

piration of 80 days, and in case OF
its failure to do SO, the town was
to have the work done at its expense.
The plant was then accepted under
these conditions. The town held
back $1,000 from the last payment
to guarantee the fulfillment of the
company's promise.
Shortly after, the boilers began tc
show signs of general inefficiency

DEATH OF MRS. LAFOREST.

DEATH OF MRS. LAFOREST.
ssAfter lifes ftful fever she sleeps WELL"
On Sunday morning Feb. S at
the home of her son, Rev. F. A. B.
Laforest of Carencro, died the ven
cradle Mrs. Pierre Laforest who
succumbed to the weakness OF old
age augmented by an attack OF la
grippe. Mrs. Laforest was born in
Canada, something over eighty three
years ago, her maiden name being
Angelo Parent. She was married
at an early age to Pierre Benol;
Laforest, their wedding being the
first one celebrated in the Catho :
church Of the then new city of
Joliet
Mrs. Laforest was the mother of
six children two of whom she WAS
called upon in her old age to lose
by death, so that at the time Of her
demise she was the venerated head
of family consisting of two sons
and two daughters, fifty seven
grand children and six great-grand-
children. Throughout her long
and active life, she was noted as
truly devoted and affectionate
mother; her efforts to raise as good
Christians and industrious men and
women her sons and daughters,
were richly rewarded; for in her old
age, she was reviewed and loved by
them all--.1egarded with equal ten
derness and devotion by the son
and daughters living far from her
and by her younger son, Father
| Laforest, whose home she has
frightened during the last four years.
Her unfailing service of her dear
ones and her unvarying kindness
and charity to those around her, her
simple piety and faith will ever be
precious heirlooms to those who
are left behind.
Father Laforest, the son to whom
she was SO dear, and who had the
privilege of ministering to her last
years, and Mrs. George MelChior,
her grand daughter, have the heart
felt sympathy of d host of friends
who grieve with them in their loss.
The funeral of the venerable lady
took place on Tuesday and was 6
most solemn and inspiring cere
mony, being largely attended ir
spite Of the very severe weather, by
a number of friends from other pla-
ces as we'll as by the citizens Of
Carencro, who brayed all disCom-
fort to offer their tribute of esteem
to the good mother of an earnest
and beloved pastor.
The solemn high mass wa:
chanted by Father Laforest himself
who thus bestowed upon that dear
mother the last rites Of the church
to which she had dedicated him II
his youth. The funeral sermon
paying just due to a Christian soul
who had fought the good fight 70
eighty three long years, was elo
quently preached by Father Smith
Of Opelousas.
The solemn ceremonies bein!
over the congregation preceded b,
the Carencro Brass Band, playing {
death march, escorted the morta
remains Of Mrs. Laforest to their las
resting place.
