1t became necessary for the Par
ish Board of Health to hold &
meeting. A grave difficulty pre-.
sented itself. The president re.
sides in Patterson; one member
lives below and near Morgan City
which is strictly quarantined
against Patterson, and the home
of the remaining mem Der is at the
upper line of the parish. The
Board was therefore badly scat
tered. Yet meeting was abso-
lutely necessary, and must be had.
Patterson in her great distress
needed money, and meeting OF
the Board alone could legally pro-
vide for the appropriation of the
money. The difficulty was gen.
erously solved by the generous
action of the officials of the South
ern Pacific Railroad Company.
That company put special train
at the disposal of the president Of
our Police Jury, Mr.. James A.
Peterman, by which means, he,
with Mr.. A. Allan. member of the
board of health, and further ac-
companied by Mr.. F. c. Marsh,
member of the parish finance COM
mittee, DR.. Beverly w. Smith,
District Attorney Nv. K. Wilson,
Clerk of Court w. H. Kramer and
Assessor Henry w. Kappel, rode
to the quarantine lines at Calumet
Station, where they met the Presi-
dent of the Board, DR.. T. w.
Tarleton. A meeting was had
the necessary resolutions appro-
priating the money was legally
passed, and the needs of stricken
ed Patterson quickly relieved.
The BANNER, in the name of the
Parish of St. Mary, gladly takes
this opportunity to publicly thank
the officers of the Southern Pacific
Railroad for their good will and
generous assistance.
Franklin has thoroughly effec-
tive quarantine. 1t is conducted
without buster. 1t has nothing
sensational about it; but it is
carried on quietly, firmly and SER
iously, as the means for the pro-
lection of the health of our people.
1t is directed squarely under the
requirements of our State quaran-
tine laws, DR.. Beverly w. Smith,
who controls this branch of our
local public service, fully deserves
the thanks of all of our citizens,
for his firmness-his fairness-his
watchfulness, and the evident
ability with which he is perform
ing this important trust.
