To The Public.

The following letter was re.
ceived by Clerk of Court w. H
Kramer from the law firm Of
Clegg, Quintero & Gidiere, oil
New Orleans:
NEW ORLEANS, La, Feb. 16, 1910.
To the Clerks of Court of Record,
State of louisiana:
We have been consulted by Mr.. E.
+. Dutu, regarding his interest in the
succession of Charles Bernard Jean
ton, Frenchmen, who came to the
United States in 1854 and died in
Louisiana about 1902.
Jeanton is reputed to have heen a
wealthy planter and a large cattle
dealer. He was married to Miss
Traguesaires, who subsequently de-
serted her husband and lived as wife
of party by the name of Nores. A
son was born of this relation and
died in Paris. leaving Mrs. Thielly
as universal legatee of his estate.
We understand that this Mrs.
Thielly recently sought to have the
legal heirs of Charles Bernard jean
ton give her an option on their inter-
est IN his succession, refusing how
ever to disclose the amount or where
abouts of the estate.
We are authorized by Mr.. Dutu to
say he will reward anyone furnishing
information that will lead to the To-
cation and recovery of the estate.
Will you kindly make an examina-
ton OF the records of your Office and
and let US know if the succession
of Charles Bernard Jeanton was
opened. and what proceedings were
had.
1t has occurred to us that the name
of Jeanton might easily have been
to johnson or John
ston, so that it might be we'll to bear
this fact in mind while making the
examination.
We enclose stamped envelope for
reply.
Very truly yours,
CLEGG, QUINTERO & GIDIERE.

Let Us Have the New Railroad on
This Side Of the BAYOU.

Inc lOerla. st. Mary and East.
ern Railroad is asking the citizens
Of the first, fourth, fifth and
Eighth wards of this parish to
vote a tax of five mills for ten
years towards assisting this COM
pany in building a railroad from
New Iberia to Berwick.
The citizens of the fifth and
eighth wards have signed aud
presented to the Police Jury of
this parish petition requesting
the calling of an election for the
voting of such a tax. Petitions
for the same purpose are now be-
ing circulated in the first and
fourth wards of this parish and
are meeting with hearty accord
from the citizens of those wards.
The town Of Jeanerette, through
which this road will pass, voted
on the 21st inst, unanimously in
favor of this tax bonus.
Up to this writing, no petitions
have been circulated in the third
ward of this parish and we have
been informed by those who are
interested in this company, that
the failure to do so is owing to
the uncertainty on the part of this
railroad as to it's building its road
bed through the town of Franklin.
The present plan of this road
contemplates it's crossing the
bayou after leaving Charenton
and continuing down on the east
ern bank of Bayou Teche and re-
crossing in the ncighborhood Of
Garden City.
This is a matter we believe de-
mands the most serious consider
alton of the officials and citizens
of the town of Franklin, as the
failure of this road to pass through
the town Of Franklin would be the
most serious calamity that could
happen to che community, and
would mean in the future as great
q loss to the town as the removal
of the Hanson mill to Garden City
produced.
This road by running along the
eastern bank Of the Bayou Teche
would pass every sugar house be-
tween Charenton and Franklin
save that of the Baldwin Refinery
and the Sterling Sugar Refinery.
The erection by them of depot
across the bayou, would neces-
state the town and parish erect
ing and constructing bridge,
and the road would secure all the
passenger traffic out of the town
as though its depot was erected in
the town itself. Depot stations
always build towns around them
selves and the ultimate result of
such movement would be town
TO Franklin with it's own
trade and its own stores; which
growth and business should be
kept in the town itself and not
permitted to become independent
" adjacent thereto.
While the above plans of the
road are but in a tentative state
and not completed, we feel that
good work on the part of its Of
[icials and citizens can bring a
strong enough pressure to bear
upon this road to persuade it to
change its course. and to bring
ire road on this side of the bayou
through or close to the town,
hereby making this town a COM
3etitive railroad point and ad-
ling to it's growth and business.
We do not wish to be an alarm
st, but we feel that we would be
'leeping upon our duty towards
'ur people if we do not raise our
1oice in warning to the danger
hat the present situation pre-
ents.
