PUBLISHED ANNUALLY BY THE Senior Class of THE LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY and A. and M. COLLEGE Dedication a s a token of profound esteem and in recognition of his untiring devotion to his Allma M ater and loyal services to his State this, the eleventh volume of the Gumbo is respectfully dedicated to tbe H onorable J o hn Randolp h Th ornton member of the B oard of Supervisors and United States Senator John Randolph Thornton OHN RANDOLPH THORNTON was bom at the plantation home of his father near Bayou Goula in Iberville Parish, Lou­ isiana, on August 25th, 1846. His father, Charles A. Thornton, and mother, whose maiden name was Cornelia Randolph, had moved to Louisiana from Virginia shortly prior to that date. After attending other schools, he went to the Louisiana State University, or State Seminary, as it was then called, at that time located near the City of Alexandria, and was a cadet in that institution for a period of one year, leaving it upon the out­ break of the Civil W ar to enter the ranks of the Confederate Army. While only sixteen years of age, he enlisted as a private in Company “G,” Second Louisiana Cavalry, under Colonel W. G. Vincent, and served faithfully and with distinction under that command in the Trans-Mississippi Department until the close of the war. An incident of this period illus­ trates at one and the same time two of the most striking attri­ butes of Judge Thornton’s character: the unselfishness of his nature and his devotion to his state; for during the progress of the conflict between the states he was offered a commission in a company organized in another state, but declined, preferring to serve in the ranks of a Louisiana command. A t the close of the war he moved to Rapides Parish, where he has lived ever since. His struggles after the termination of the great conflict were typical of those of the majority of the Confederate soldiers. He became a farmer, ploughing the same horse which he had ridden in the army. At night, though weary from the day’s work, he studied to complete his educa­ tion and to become a member of the legal profession. In 1877, having finished his studies in law under late Governor James Jeffries, he was admitted to the Bar by the Supreme Court and began the practice of law in Alexandria, Louisiana, at which place he has engaged in that vocation ever since. Judge Thornton also took a most prominent part in the work of reconstruction. He became a member of the famous “White Camelia” and was arrested twice for his activities in contending for white supremacy. In 1879, he was elected Judge of Rapides Parish and earned the distinction of being the first Democrat elected to that office after the war. In 1898, 8 Foreword O impart to those who read these pages some impression, though an inadequate one, of the spirit of loyalty which pervades the stu­ dents of the Louisiana State University; to express in some slight way our gratitude to those who, by their sympathy and friend­ ship, have done so much for this edition of the GUMBO; in a less degree to record some of the incidents and accidents which compose the history of the Class of Nineteen Hundred and Eleven— this is our purpose. If the reader is made to under­ stand but a tithe of the boundless love and loyalty which has ever surrounded us since matriculation, which has been with us during the moments of misfortune as well as during the hours of triumph, and which we trust we are taking with us into the wider world of the future, then will the months and weeks of work and worry over the completion of this volume be amply rewarded, and our mission be done. 10 Faculty of the Louisiana State University T h o s .

PROGRESS THE PROGRESS of Negroes in the United States is so great that history will point out what you have done as one of the achievements which mark this age. Your rise is one of the best proofs of the value of the American theory of government. Successes by individuals here and there have been multiplied until now yours is a mass movement. You are advancing all along the line, a sound basis for your having confidence in the future. The world’s work needs every man. I look to see the Negro, prepared by difficulty, and tested by adversity, be a valued factor in upbuilding the commonwealth. In the Middle West, where The Kansas City Call is published, lies opportunity. In addition to urban pursuits you have available for the man of small means, the farm which is one of the primary industries. The Negro in your section can develop in a well rounded way. Above all things, take counsel of what you are doing, rather than of the trials you are undergoing. Look up and go up!
