Judge Taylor Beattie
To His Reward

| Judge Taylor Beattie, citizen an,
jurist, died at his home, across the ba
you from this town, on yesterday shor
ly after noon. He had been confined t,
his room since fourteen days and Will,
it was early learned that his condition
was serious, he had rallied at the lat
ter part of last week to an extent tt
warrant the hope that he might yet
recover, until Tuesday, when he again
took turn for the worse and the enc
was inevitable. In his death an indivi.
dual who hasbeen for years identified
with the community passes away. He
had reached the age of 83 years, and ur
til the time he was confined to his room
was actively engaged in the practice
of his professionally. He practiced
here for some go years or more, and
was on the District bench, when this
district comprised Assumption and La
fourche, and Lafourche andTerrebonne.
His record as a judge was envied by
all, and regardless of party affilia-
tion, although a Republican, he was
elected term after term. Republican
since his early manhood, prominent in
the councils of his party, in the district
in the state, and also in the nation, a
Republican through conviction, and
when it cost to be Republican; but as
he did not court public opinion before
reaching decision, it mattered little
to him. Reaching his own conclusions,
when he felt satisfied and realized he
was right, he had the courage of his
convictions and he stuck to his opi-
Mons. Always respecting the rights of
others he was respected by all who
knewhim, his opinions on general mat
ters were always given the greatest
consideration. In his profession he was
held in high esteem, being learned in
the law, it was his life work, and in it
he found satisfaction, pleasure and
comfort. He was at different times a
candidate for Congress, and also for
Governor of the State of Louisiana, al
ways on the Republican ticket. He
was delegate to the Republican Ma
tional Conventions several times, was
a member of the convention nomina-
ting President Grant. 1t was his leader
ship and stand that prevented one of
the Presidents from being nominated
for third term. He always took inte-
rest in local matters, and any and all
good causes had his endorsement and
assistance, many are those who benefit
ted from his generosity and kind heart,
He served in the Confederate army in
the Civil War.
He was married to Miss Fannie
Pugh, and she with two sons, Hon.
Charlton r. Beattie and Mr.. Taylor
Beattie Jr., both attorneys, besides
Misses Katherine and Charlotte Beat
tie are left to survive him, together
with other relatives and numerous
friends.
The flag on the court house was pla-
ced at half mast as soon as he died
and will there remain until aft er the
funeral services; the building being
draped in black. Deceased embraced
the Catholic faith during his illness.
AS we go to press announcement has
not been made as to the hour of the
funeral.
