FAMILY SEES SOUTHERN STATES CLAD IN SPRINGTIME BEAUTY Mrs. Agnes Marshall, daughter, Ro- Vena, son, Earl, and the latter's daughter, Patricia Lee, spent last week on a sightseeing tour through the beautiful Southland and they have related a summary of their trip for The Plaindealer. The Marshalls headed southward through Nashville, Tenn., and Alabama to Pensacola, Fla. In the latter •city they saw a fishing fleet come into port and they also visited the naval Air base. They then set oat for New Orleans, La., via Mobile, Ala., and Biloxi, Miss. The sightseers took a tour of the city and included the quaint Spanish and French quarters, the old Spanish castle, St. Louis cathedral and the Absinthe house among the places of note to visit. That afternoon they took a boat trip along the Mississippi river on an old side-wheeled steamer Sn order that they might obtain a better view of the docks and the water ifront. They also got a look at some foreign ships, among these the Monfiore and the Ada, which are interned! at New Orleans for the deration of' the war in Europe. They also found jthe cemeteries in Louisiana quite interesting, wherein the bodies are entombed above ground. \ Crossing the beautiful Huey Long -bridge, our tourists drove to Baton IXouge, the capital of Louisiana. Here -~4hey enjoyed a genuine Creole dinner. At Natchez, Mi6s., they visited some •of the famous old mansions, all over J,two hundred years old. They an furnished resplendently and the Marshalls marveled at one bed which was over twelve feet high. These old homesteads are picturesquely surrounded by live oaks, covered with Spanish moss. The magnolias and poinsettlas ' were also in bloom at the tine of their visit. The Civil war battlefields at Vicks- '. burg occupied the next part of their .trip. Here they viewed the soldiers' cemetery and were quite thrilled to see the burial place of the greatgrandfather of Earl and RoVena, Corporal Charles W. French, who died at Vicksburg. Little Rock, the capital of Arkansas, was the next city of importance on the route. In this region they <drove through the Ozarks and saw the jBagnell dam at Lake of the Ozarks. • .Also, they saw the capital of MU- • isouri, Jefferson City, before crossing •the Mississippi river into Illinois, passing through Springfield on the last lap of their journey. The Marshalls visited ten states in one week and saw the capitals of six of these states. They found the country most beautiful in this springtime of the year.
