Last week's issue of The Pon-
chatoula Times identified the
Eagle Scout who compiled the list
of Ponchatoula war dead as Dale
Brian Kugler. His surname is
spelled Kuebler. We regret the
error and draw your attention to
the follow-up report in this week's
edition, with Brian's name spelled
correctly

It was these two to three foot
alligators who wore the colors of
members of the media, politicians,
and service groups in the races.

winning overall. It too was a Klie-
bert Alligator and Turtle Farm alli-
gator, as was the second place
finisher in the "suitcase size" divi-
sion of larger gators.
Last week's report credited Klie-
bert Alligator and Turtle Farm
only with lhe second place win in
the large alligator category and
failed to give the Kliebert family
credit for its unique contribution to
this major state-recognized festival
in Ponchatoula.
• Adams
FROM PAGE TWELVE
He wrote Abigail in a rage: "I am going to marry Louisa Johnson;" mama: "your
career comes first." Louisa took him in the family carriage to Bond Street where
he was outfitted with a new wardrobe.
New England folks never underestimated the power of the Adams women.
President Washington transferred Quincy to Lisbon, Portugal and after renting
and house and moving all his furniture there his father, the new president,
cancelled the appointment and ordered him to Berlin. He quickly saw the fine
Italian hand of Abigail in all these transactions. The old bugbear since the
protestant revolt upset the wedding picture. Louisa and her sisters in French
convent schools converted to Catholicism in England. The Adams were anti-
Anglicans and stout congregationalists. And to top it off Quincy's daddy was
elected president of the United States.
Louisa had a mind of her own. As they said in those days, "she was a very
determined woman" the two of them went to the parish church "All Hallows
Barking" on Tower Hill and set the wedding date for July 17, 1797. His brother
Thomas was his best man. On board ship sailing for Europe Louisa received a
letter from her father: "Best wishes, I am bankrupt. Forget the five thousand
pounds sterling dowery. Happy honeymoon."

reported she looked down to see the Manchac marvel was still in his white
fisherman's boots. (You can take Teddy out of the swamps...)
Hey Debbie Robertson, owner of the new Debbie's Cuts n Curls across
from City Hall, as a grand opening present I could give you a large photo of
Ole Hardhide to hang on your beauty shop wall. It would sort of give your
clients something to shoot for (I'II trade you for a pedicure).
And then there was Mace. l've been saving Mace for late in My Ponchatoula,
as a bonus to those faithful readers who have waded through this swamp of
information in hopes of finding something worth reading.
Where shall we begin? We could pick up the story two weeks ago when the
Madisonville Police Chief decided to become Mace's personal manager, and
since he figured ole Mace had broken training and downed a jar or two of the
suds, he kindly relieved him of his car keys and helped whip him into shape
by inviting him to walk home from Madisonville to the Tangipahoa River.
Ah, but that's an old story and is only surpassed by the events of this past
weekend when the public-minded citizen was helping the police jury clear out
a ditch using the wheels.on the left side of his car and got mired in the muck
for all of his thoughtful assistance.
Mind you, this was after-hours volunteer service and Mace was already
tired when he started, so of course he took a little nap behind his car after
several weary attempts at pushing it back on the pavement, wouldn't you?
Boy did that cop misdiagnose our buddy's condition. Silly fellow, he
thought ole Mace was exhausted due to acute thirst so he of course
performed first aid in the form of three buckets of cold water on our hero,
who did seem to respond to the treatment on the third bucket.
Did ! say he was a swell guy? He even put Mace up for the night.
That's My Ponchatoula for you!
