Jacob French





Co. F, 18th IA. Infantry
The Mildred Ledger, Thursday, Nov. 19, 1911
Died: Oct. 28, 1911

Another Veteran Mustered Out.

Comrade Jacob French was born in Crawford county, Pa., Feb. 15, 1830, and died in Kincaid, Kans., Oct. 28, 1911, aged 81 yrs. 8 mo. and 13 days.
When he was nineteen he went to Illinois, but afterwards moved to Iowa where he enlisted in the 18th Iowa Infantry, doing his part to make the splendid record of that efficient regiment. He served until the close of the war.
In 1868, he came to Kansas and homesteaded land near the present site of Mildred. In 1874, he united in marriage to Mrs. Lucretia Crist, who died May 24, 1905.
For nearly forty years he belonged to the Baptist church and was a member of Major Rankin’s Post No. 439, G. A. R. at Kincaid.
His four step-daughters, whom he reared and loved as his own survive him: Mesdames Eliza Seward, Jones City, Okla.; Lizzie Shockey, Iola, Kansas; Lila Mathews, Kansas City, Mo.; Famia Hackett, Mildred, Kansas. Also one sister, Mrs. Mary Barry, Walker, Iowa.
His sudden and violent death was a great shock to the community, who regret in him, the loss of an honored veteran, a good neighbor and a Christian man.
The funeral was held at Fairview church, which was beautifully decorated for the occasion. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Martin. Comrade J. L. Hosley recited a farewell poem after the sermon, and then the members of Major Rankin Post, assisted by the sons of Veterans, conducted the remains of their fallen comrade to the cemetery and with their beautiful ceremony laid him to rest.

New Orleans - French Quarter: Gauche Villa




New Orleans - French Quarter: Gauche Villa





Gauche Villa, at 704 Esplanade Avenue at the corner of Royal Avenue, is an Italianate mansion built by James Freret for crockery merchant John Gauche in 1856. Gauche tore down an earlier house to built this one, at a cost of $11,000, in Creole taste. Richard Koch restored the house for Matilda Geddings Gray after her 1937 purchase, and her niece, Mrs. Harold Stream, had Koch and Wilson do further work in 1969.

The chaste granite portico is unusual for New Orleans. The simplicity of the large masonry cube with its even articulation transfers emphasis to the iron balcony, cast in Saarbrucken, Germany, with its bracketed cresting and to the cast iron fence. The beautiful ironwork, most of which was added as an afterthought, is uniquely integral to the house’s appearance. Numerous patterns are used, casting lovely shadows on the stucco exterior on sunny days. Rows of anthema and other Greek floral motifs decorate the edge of the roof and fence posts.
