Last Monday morning anoth-
er small fire took place during the
hour of three o'clock, on Wash
ington Avenue. 1t proved to be
the home of Mrs. Lolo Bessan of
Lafayette at one time occupied
by her as a home. From all indi-
cations it was an act of incendia-
rism as a fresh beer bottle, half
filed with coal oil was found in
the back yard the next morning.
The house was totally destroyed
and we understand was only part
tally insured. Had it not been
for the numerous trees on the
Southeast side Of the building, the
home of Mrs. Alpine Fontelieu
would have probably suffered the
same fate. The Fire Department
did some excellent work in saving
other buildings in the neighbor-
hood.
On the occasion of the visit to
the State Fair of Mr.. Louis Pes
son, the gentleman made several
purchases of registered cattle,
buying Jerseys for his own use
and Guernsey's for his son, Mr..
Robert S. who has already one of
the finest herds in the Parish. We
understand Mr.. Pesson has placed
on exhibition at the State Fair
quite a nice exhibit of his butter
made on his farm which business
he is going into quite extensively.
Those who have tried it pro-
nounce it as good as any ever
put on this market and he is find
ing ready sales for all he can
make. The stock bought by both
OF these gentlemen were bred in
South Carolina.
