tempted the appettes of all to do full justice to the
good things that were set forth. ABSENTEE as an
appetizer, followed by claret puts cafe, coffee and
cigars, with champagne served unstintingly, placed
all in pleasant frame of mind for the business OF
the day, the inspection of the road. But while the
champagne was still flowing Judge Burns was called
upon for sentiments of the OCCASION and responded
by complmenting Houton Bros. and Mr.. Dendlnger
upon the progressive spirit they had shown and the
police jury upon the great Improvement they had
made in the parish in recent years. He said that
this parish was the first to take advantage Of the
Constitution of 1898 for keeping up the roads of the
parish.
The road was then inspected its entire length
which is $500 feet 1t is % feet wide, being connect
ed the Madisonville end by an excellent bridge

the road will be of great value, being direct line
