Death Of an Estlmable Lady.

Mrs. Annie Land, we'll known in our
parish and beloved by many residents, died
at an early hour Monday morning at the
home of Mr.. j. P. Cresswell Of Shreveport.
Her age is given as sixty -four years, and
death was due to paralytic stroke.
Mrs. Land was an aunt of Messrs. w. G..
and j. E. Burt and sister of Messrs. E. s.
and j. H. Burt, all of this community.
She is also survived by one other brother
DR.. William M. Burt of Sparta, Ga.-and
other relatives.
The following tribute to her memory is
from the society columns of the Shreveport
Journal of Tuesday:
"Mrs. Annie Burt Land was laid to rest
yesterday, a large gathering of friends at
tending the funeral services to pay last
sad tribute to one who was dearly beloved.
She was daughter of DR.. William Miles
Burt of Edgefield, S. c.. After the war
the family moved to Bossier Parish and
here Miss Burt married Capt. Pierce M.
Butler, son of Ex-Governor P. M. Butler of
South Carolina. Capt. Butler lived only
fifteen months after his marriage. His
daughter, Miss Pawnee Butler, is we'll
known and loved by large circle of
friends here. Mrs. Butler was widow
seven years and then married T. T. Land,
jr., of this city, a son of Judge T. T. Land,
ST., on the Supreme Court bench of this
State, and a brother of j. R. Land, David
Land, Judge A. D. Land, Mrs. Sallie
Jastremski, Mrs. George Wilson and Mrs.
Carrie Hollingsworth. In two years Mrs.
Land was again widow.
"Her life has been one of beautiful serv-
ice devoted to helping those in need, and
helping to care for and rear a family of
orphan nieces and nephews. She lived a
full and useful life. A devout member of
the Roman Catholic Church, her absence
will be felt by all those associated with her
in church work
'The deepest sympathy of friends is
extended the young daughter in her be-
reavement."
At session of the Police Jury of this
parish and the City Commissioners Of
Shreveport, held in that city on Tuesday
. it was unanimously agreed to rescind the
action taken at a former meeting declaring
the Red River bridge free after January l
1911. A committee composed of Messrs
j. w. Elston and C. G. Rives was appointed
to further investigate the bridge question
and other matters the two bodies are con-
sidering, to report at meeting to be hell
next Tuesday.

build few good bridges, which will en-
nance the value of the land materially and
add to the happiness of the residents of
both parishes.
The weather at present is rather warm,
and indications are good for rain, which
would be beneficial, as the stiff lands are
getting rather hard for breaking.
The past week was cold and crisp-regu-
lar hog killing weather. Consequently the
farmers round about are feasting on every
thing good in the way of fresh meat from
sausage to chitlins.
Mr.. A. w. McClanahan will move to
Poole in few days to superintend the
interest Of Mr.. Robert Poole. We regret
to lose such good neighbors, but concede
that our loss will be another's gain.
