McDonough was born in Baltimore in 1778 of Scotch-Irish parentage. Coming to New Orleans shortly after Louisiana was transferred from French to American hands, he set himself up in business and soon became wealthy. He had fought as a rifleman in the Rattle of New Orleans. In 1806, McDonough, a favorite in social life, retired from business to devote himself to management of his estates. The young landowner aspired to the hand of Micaela, beautiful daughter of Don Andres ALmonastery Roxhb, titled Spanish colonist. But the Almonaster family rejected McDonough's suit because they considered him a commoner, and Micaela became the wife of Baron de Pontalba, a French nobleman. Bitter over his disappointment, McDonough swore his name Bhould live when their tribes had sunk to oblivion. He sold his town house and moved to his plantation across the. Mississippi river, where for nearly half a century he led a lonely penurious life dedicated to the accumulation of wealth. When McDonough died in 1850, he willed the bulk of his fortune to the cities of New Orleans and Baltimore ?to be used for construction of schools. [New Orleans received $900,000, which with accumulated interest has en! abled the city to build 30 modern school buildings and much of the original bequest is still untouched. In return for his gift IfoDonougk aoked that the school children some times lay flowers on his grave. Onej u year the schools ate closed for u day and the pupils muke pilgrimage to MoDonough's monument irt LaKayette Square. McDonough was buried here but some years after his death hi a leiiiaiits were removed io Baltimore. I>on Almonaster, the proud Spaniard, is best re mem lie red by having rebuilt at his own expense St. Louis cathedral, New Orleans' ftrst church. After the edifice was destroyed by fire in 1788, His only request was that he should be buried inside the church and that a mass should be said for him each .Saturday. Sam Brady Gets Year's Sentence Sumter, July 13.?"One year on the public works of Sumter county or a like period in the state penitentiary," was the sentence imposed on Sam Brody, 27-year-old Sumter merchant, who Wednesday was convicted of an attempt to hum his own property in the heart of the business section of the city. Eloquent pleas for leniency were made by George D. Levy and Mendel L. Smith, urging that Judge Lanham allow the alternative of a fine, instead of a term in prison, as the latter would crush Brody's spirit. Judge Lanham, however, stated that he did not term the verdict as a compromise, or as one favoring a light sentence. The matter was too serious, especially as other peoples' property and even lives were endangered by the fire. Brody was tried on the charge of setting fire to the Reid building, his own property, March 18. He was found guilty of the second count_of the indictment, the attempt to burn the property. iMany receptacles containing kerosene and cloths and papers saturated with kefbsene were found by firemen in the loft of the building, after the blaze was extinguished. A Several of the receptacles were identified 'by merchants as ones, or similar to ones, sold to Broday a few days before the fire. Governor Stopn Boxing Bout By request of Sheriff Hurut the promoters of the boxing and wrestling exhibition, scheduled at Sunset Lake Friday night was called off. The sheriff was notified several days ago "by the governor that prize fights are against the law in this state and should not be allowed. The promoters were notified to this effect and readily agreeo to stop tne show. However, Governor Richards, in his zeal to see that the laws of the state are enforced, sent Special Officer Richardson and another officer, whose name is not known, to Sunset Lake Friday night to Bee that hiB royal edict was carried out to the letter. The officers from thfi governor's staff wasted the entire evening in a I fruitless mission. In the past the sheriff's office has given the governor close co-operation in enforcing the Irwb and is at a loss to understand why Richards should feel that he must send his own men here to see that such a small thing as the preventing of a boxing exhibition is carried 6ut. The sheriff's office here is perfect ly able to see that the laws in this county arc obeyed and it is suggested that the governor in the future merely notify the Sumter officers if he | wunts a particular law observed, even , if the law happens to be antiquated and unpopular, and Keep his own men in Columbia or any other place except this county. Until local officer* prove themselves negligent in enforcing the laws the help of the governor's staff officers is not needed or wanted in Sumter county.?Saturday's .Sumter Item.
