He came to New Orleans when he was quite young and chose medicine as his profession and gratuated in 1861, but was breaking out and he followed the flag of the confederacy, and gave its wounded the benifit of his skill. While he was assitant surgeon at Fort St. Philip and Fort Jackson, he was taken prisoner, but was released and returned to the City. On the 25th of October, 1862, he married Miss Olympe Marie de LESSEPS, eldest daughter of Auguste de LESSEPS, cousin of Ferdinand de LESSEPS, the great French engineer.
