Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Louisiana Bar Association for 1917, Vol. 18: With the Proceedings of the Annual Meeting, Held in Alexandria, Louisiana, May 11th and 12th, 1917 Sirs, you are very welcome to our house; It must appear in other ways than words Therefore, I scant this beathing courtesy. It becomes, however, our duty to advise you that, upon this occasion, at least one-third of the members of our local Bar will not be present. We regret that they will not be here to join in our deliberations, and to join us in your entertainment, but it is 'with pride that we say to you, that the cause of their absence is that, temporarily forsaking their private clients, they have adopted their country as their client, and have gone to answer the call to arms. (applause) In this respect, they are uphold ing one of the noblest traditions of the Bar, because history tells us that, in all of our wars, the legal profession, in proportion to its numbers, furnished more recruits to our armies than any other profession or vocation.
