Mr. Neely was about 66 years old, and was formerly a citizen of Winn, but removed to Grant Parish in 1873. He represented Grant parish in the legislature of 1879 and 80. Soon after his term of office expired, he moved to Texas, but returned to his old home in La., and had been back but a few weeks when he was stricken down.
