tween stops, boys jumped on the truck
to take ride. He did not drive them
off. At els o'clock he left the store
of Frank Castrogiovanni, at Pacific av-
enue and Alix street, half a square

and a companion, Thomas Leblanc,
aged fifteen years, of 3O1 Pacific ave-
nue.. Joined those on the truck, among
them being William Henley, fifteen
years, of POI Pelican avenue, and An
thony Lauman of POI Alix street.
Martin drove the truck out Alix
street to Verret, where he turned to-
ward the river. Some of the boys, as
| well as Martin, say there was jolt as
| If a rock or some other obstruction
was in the road. Durand, who had a
plank pistol in his hand, showing it
to Henley, with whom he stood in the
| center of the vehicle, lost his balance
and pitched over the side of the truck.
One of the boys called out to Martin.

Church of the Holy Name of Mary,
with interment in st. Bartholomew
cemetery. He was a member of the
St Josephs Boys Society of Algiers,

offerings which were brought by his
classmates and the attendance of the
members of the sixth, seventh and
eighth grades of McDonogh No. 4
school in a body. The grades were
accompanied by the teachers.
