From:  December 25, 1908 Southern Sentinel

Old Citizen Dead.

It has just come to the notice of the Sentinel, that one of the pioneer
citizens of Winn Parish recently died on November 10, 1908, at his home
near Couley.  L. A. Lucas was born in Mississippi, October 13, 1836, and
was in his 73rd year of age.  He came to this State when quite a young man
and has resided here ever since.  Like all old citizens he spent a useful
life and was known for good deeds and a generous heart.  He died from the
effects of a congestive chill.  A loving wife and three children are left
to mourn the death of an affectionate  husband and loving father.
