Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Lot of 5 pieces. $1000 I/C 4% New Consolidated Bond. Black print with a large orange green border and under tint. Vignette of a castle or large building at top of certificates. Pin punched canceled over certificate. VF-XF condition. ABNC. Murphy James Foster (January 12, 1849 � June 12, 1921) was the 31st Governor of the U.S. state of Louisiana, an office he held for two terms from 1892 to 1900. Foster supported the Louisiana Constitution of 1898, which effectively disfranchised the black majority, who were mostly Republicans. This led to Louisiana becoming a one-party Democratic state for several generations and excluding African Americans from the political system.
