Ack the faiher of Willlam Hayes i of Washington, 1, ", was the er of seven plantations in one ody on the Mississippi river, plantations surround the Lake Cross where the explorer LaSalle and his priests planted the cross on the liscovery of Louisiana, Besides his pluntations Colonel Ackland was the owner of many thousands of acres on Matagorda Bay, Tex; & town house in the city of Nashville, Tenn,, and the largest stock farm in the South six miles from Gallatin, Tenn, In addition to these properties he began to build in 18556 two miles from Nashville, Tenn,, what he intended private residence in America with a ball room, gallery and seven conserva- tories, and which bore the name Belmont after the place of Portia at Padua, For many years Belmont was 4 show place and even known in Eur- upl. It is said to have suggested the | description of the home of Saint Elmo in that once popular novel. After the death of Colonel and Mrs. ject of | Ackland, Belmont passed out of the hands of the family. It was bought by a syndicate and became one of the most flourishing coileges for women in the south and was known as Ward | Belmont College. As a result of the emancipation of his 1100 slaves, Colonel Ackland was | unable to carry on the immense drain- ing systems on his cotton plantations in Touisiana. The embankments known as levies which protected the land from overflow fell into decay and finally the advent of the ball weevil made the culture of cotton so pre- carious that the land ceased to yield an income. The state of Louisiana having the whole convict system at its disposal will restore the drainage system and rebuild the levie: ASTRONOMERS READY.
