HAD LAium families. j
Of the 822 dead at Cheniere Gamin- j j
ada whose names are known, 496 were
children. The Caminada people are | j
famous for large families. Mr. Lafon |
lost his wife and fifteen children, Aiser
Petre his w ife and ten children and i
August Bonamour his wife and ten
children. The families of the three |
Valence brothers, who lived together,
John, Anion,e and Perie, consisted of ! ,
six grown persons and twenty chil
dreri. Of these twenty-six only one,
John Valence, survived.
The effects of the storm at the Che
niere are seen only in the destruction
of all the houses, but the geography j I
and character of tho country are
changed. The settlement formerly
faced' Barataria hay. The wash- i
ing away of its front has made it face ;
the gulf of Mexico. Chandleur island j
has ceased largely o he an island, the .
storm washing away the soil and leav- !
ing it merely a reef covered iu ordi- j
nary tides. A number of bayous have j
changed their courses, while lakes or j
bays have been enlarged or lessened,
horbob’s climax.
Terrific as was the work of the storm
elsewhere, on Cheniere Caminada it
reached a climax of horror. Cheniere
is one of that group of islands which ,
.-xtend along th« lower coast, and to
which belong Grand «jc, Tam

It is difficult to detect any signs of
