ARCENEAUX, J. F., Brittany, La. — Young Arceneaux was one of the many young men 
of Louisiana who became associated with the farmer's organization from the very 
first, and, being a teacher of Ascension Parish, he devoted his best efforts to 
the organization, and was from the start an acknowledged leader in his parish, 
having served as Parish Secretary-Treasurer one term ; also Parish Lecturer one 
term ; was a delegate to the State Union held at Winnfield in 1908, where he 
took an active part in the proceedings of the convention, serving on important 
committees ; was nominated as a candidate for Secretary-Treasurer, and was only 
beaten by eight votes. He was later nominated as one of the delegates to the 
National Union, and won out on the first ballot. Brother Arceneaux was made one 
of the Committee on Credentials at Fort Worth, and also held other important 
committee appointements (sic).
