CHAPTER III.

Most Of the houses in St. Louis at
the time OF which we are writing were
built of logs split into two pieces and
Set up on end, close together, with the
lower ends sunk into the ground. The
cracks between these timbers were tilled
with clay mortar and straw and Gov
cred with straw or long prairie grass.
There Were one hundred Of these log
houses then in the village, and fifteen
made of stone. Nearly all the people
were French, and French manners, Ian.
guage and customs prevailed.
Charles B Bissette and Marie Chris
tine Pepin were married on January 90
l774, in the only church in the village.
on the west side of what is now Second
street, between what are Low Market
and Walnut streets.
Mr.. Bssette and Miss Pepin previous
to the marriage ceremony in the church
appeared before an officer, accompanied
by their friends, and, in the presence of
witnesses, declared their intention to
become husband and wife, and entered
into marriage contract before the otli
Ger in which it was stated that neither
party was responsible for the debts of
the other before marriage. They gave
the amount Of property possessed by
EACH together with Il declaration of the
amount they wee to receive from their
friends, and made part of the record.
1t was thin provided that all this prop
erty made IA common fund to be equally
owned and enjoyed by both. There was
also small gift of money from one
party to the other called the gage d.
amour.
Six days after the above marriage,
Francis Hebert married Madeline lie
Roy in the same church where their
friends had been married. They, too,
had previously entered into a marriage
contract.
Shortly after his marriage Charles H.
Bissette moved into his stone house
erected by himself on the northwest
corner of what are now called Poplar
and Second streets where he lived until
his death. About the same time Fran
els Hebert moved into his house that he
had bought from his uncle, Joseph He.
bert, on the northwest corner OF what
are now called Main and Poplar streets,
Just one block east of the residence CT
his friend, Charles Bissette, and he lived
there until his death.
These two families lived in the great
est harmony and friendship between
themselves and with their neighbors.
Peace and prosperity dwelt with them.
Unto Charles Bissette and Marie Chris
tine, his wife, had been born three
lovely children-two boys, Paul and
Antoine, and baby daughter, Marie.

TO BRING COTTON MILLS.
The Matter Will Be Brought Before
Board of Trade.

Board of Trade.
A movement to bring New England
cotton mills to Savannah may begin
vannah Board of Trade. Mr.. T. o. Nc
Bride has reason to believe that if the
right inducements are offered these in
dustries may be brought to Savannah,
and with a view to finding if the citi-
zens will cooperate in the movement
he proposes to address the Board of
Trade giving his views on the sub
Ject and requesting the members to
consider the matter.
To some it may appear strange that
Mr. Mcbride should interest himself in
a matter of this kind, but he has rea-
son to believe that WELT directed eff
forts will result to the industrial adj
vantage of the city. 1t is understood
mat mill owners are anxious to get
nearer the raw material which seems
TO be the only way for them to compete
more successfully with Southern mills.
If liberal inducements are offered it is
claimed these mills may be attracted
TO savannah, which offers all the nat
ural advantages that could be desired.
quick transportation facilities from all
interior points would enable them to
bring the raw material at their doors
at practically the same cost they could
IN the interior, which is so thickly dot
ted with these hives of industry. Then
the moderate rates at which fuel may
be broughts down from the coal ports
Is another advantage IL is believed
could be urged in favor of establish
ing mills here.
Mr. Mcbride stands ready to do as
much as any other citizen of Savannah
10 bring mills here. He is willing TO
go into his pocket, and that is about
the most desirable help for an indus
trial campaign. His idea is to investi-
gate thoroughly the feasibility of offer
ing to transport the machinery of these
mills to Savannah, and also Offering
sites on the river front, and at other
convenient places on terms that will at
tract mill owners. He also believes that
the question of taxation should be con-
sldered, and that the city should make
such concessions as may seem proper.
other cities adopt this policy of get
ing new industries, and there is no
reason why Savannah should not do
the same, he thinks, provided 1t is ex-
lected to get them. The fact that mills
nave been established at practically
every other progressive Southern city
except Savannah has aroused interest
as to the reason for the failure to land
any of them here.
While it is. of course admitted that
movements of this kind should orig
mate with cotton men, the fact that
AZ. Mcbride is willing to aid with a
substantial subscription, provided other
CItizens will take a hand, shows what
an industrial movement may develop
mo If properly managed.
what action the Board of Trade Will
axe on the communication to be adj
dressed to it remains to be seen. From
sHe apparent earnestness shown by Mr..
MGBridge, however. the chances are it

members, and If they believe the propo-

UP TO THE COURT.
Arguments Concluded I'm Ludden In
junction Proceeding


The injunction proceeding of William
Ludden, against the Ludden & Bates
Southern Music House and the Mathu-
shek Piano Manufacturing Company,
was concluded in the Superior Court
yesterday, and Judge Falligant has the
case under consideration. 1t will prob
ably be several days before a decision
will be rendered.
Mr.. S. b. Adams concluded the ar
gument for the plaintiff during the
morning session of court, and Judge
Falligant stated that he will render
his decision after the proceeding has
been given the careful consideration
that IL is due The introduction of tes-
timony by both sides, and the argu-
rnents, occupied ten days, and the pa
pers in the case are bulky.
Mr.. Ludden alleges that the DEFEND
ants are indebted to him in the sum OF
s62 900. and that they broke a contract
which they had made with him. When
he made an effort to collect certain
sums due the music house, which ne
claims he had a right to do under his
contract. he charges the defendants
sought to annoy him. by warn
ing the creditors not to pay the money
TO him. The defense. claims that the
contract made with Mr.. Ludden was
not broken.

COAL AT SAVANNAH
NEW PLAN FOR o. $. s. CO.'S NORTH
hound VESSELS.
WILL BE AN EXPERIMENT.
If SUCCESSFUL, COALING PLANT
WILL BE ESTABLISHED HERE.

1,,i i. II. Hanson, Chairman of the
Hoard of the Central, and Presi-
dent John NJ. Egan Determined

If Memphis Decided Upon as the
Yame for the Ocean Steamship
-ompany's New Vessel.
The ocean Steamship Company will
coal it's north bound vessels at Savan-
nah. This was decided by Maj. j. T.
Hanson, chairman of the board, and
President John NJ. Egan, after an in
snection of the wharves and terminals.
The coal will be secured from Ala
hama, Tennessee or Georgia fields, and
an additional consumer will be fur
nished them.
Mai. Hanson said yesterday that the
coal will be tried as an experiment on
the northbound vessels. If it is found
To be as satisfactory as that which is
now slowed in the ships bunkers at
New York, it will be used permanently.
No plant for coaling the ships here
is to be established Immediately. That
will be left until after the experiment
has demonstrated the fitness or unfit
ness of the Southern coal. 1t is though,
however, that the Southern coal will
do just as well as that obtained at the
North, so that a coaling station at the
Ocean Steamship Company's wharves
may be looked for.

ham, on our Chattanooga division"
said Maj. Hanson. lis excellent for
steam purposes. In using 1t in our
mills at Macon we get satisfaction. If
il is found adaptable to the needs of
the steamships, there will be a decided
saving to the company. The Central
Railroad, too, would haul the coal to
Savannah, so that it would derive a
revenue from the business"
The system will not include the
southbound vessels, for the reason that
the dead weight tonnage northbound
is much greater. Vessels can be coal
ed at New York for the round trip,
but it would not always be found prac-
ticable to coal them at Savannah for
the round trip.
Some months ago, when it was learn
ed that the Ocean Steamship Company
had given a contract to the Delaware
River Iron, Shipbuilding and Engine
Works (Roach's) for new vessel to
run on the Savannah line, Mai. Han
son said. in an interview in the Morn
ing News, that city of Memphis was
under consideration as a name for the
new ship. Yesterday he said that the
name had been determined upon.
The new vessel VIII be finished on
contract time. Maj. Hanson said he
was assured a few days ago, by Mr..
John B. Roach. whom he saw in New
York. That will be on May 1, 1902.
Work on the ship, however, has been
little delayed. President Egah, who
saw her not long since, announces.
Mai Hanson was asked if there would
be my ceremony at the launching of
the vessel, but he answered that the
event seems so far in the future that
no consideration has yet been given it,

channels to Col. P. w. Meldrim, who
sent the paper back, bearing unfavora-
