PETITION.

The following petition will be
taken up by the police jury at their
next regular meeting May 20, 1912:
To the Honorable President and
Members of the Police Jury of st.
Tammany Parish, La.
We, the undersigned voters and
property holders, residents of ST.
Tammany parish, present to your
honorable body, this, our petition,
praying that you establish another
ward in this parish to be known as
the Tenth Ward, out of this terri
tory adjacent to and including Abita
Springs. We request that you in
clude in this ward the following de-
scribed land, to-wit:
Sections 3, 4, 5, 6, Z, 8, 8, 10,
Is, Is, II, is, 10, 20, FL, %, e.,
%, 20, 80, 81, 80, 33, "a, 3s, town
ship 6, south, range II east, st. Hell
ena Meridian.
The east half of sections /, II, %,
"a, rs and SO, township south,
range II east, st. Helena Meridian.
The east half of section l, town
ship south, range IL east, ST.
Helena Meridian.
Sections 3, 4, and 6, township
Z south, range IL east, st. Helena
Meridian.
Your petitioners claim that the
third ward is entirely too large and
that the material interest of their
section of the ward will be greatly
enhanced, if the management OF its
local affairs should be left to the res
idents thereof. They feel that they
would be in a better position to OBJ
tain good roads and better schools
and that by thus building up the sec
ton would enhance the beauty and
Importance of that section, and there
by add to the wealth and prestige
of St. Tammany parish.
Act 81 of 1877, extra session, au-
thorized the several police juries OF
the parishes to establish new wards
and change the lines of existing
wards. Under this act, your hon
orable body has the power to create
or establish the ward prayed for by
two-thirds of your members con-
curing.
Respectfully submitted,
Chas. Biggio, Louis Daring VIM.
