EVANGELINE (from a painting) 
In the background is the Historical 
Eyangeline Oak, on Bayou Teche, 
America’s most famous tree, the spot 
where Evangeline met Gabriel (Louis 
Arceneaux) and where the exiled 
Acadians landed in 1765. At right 
is the St. Martin Catholic Church, 
founded in 1765. It contains the oul 
painting of St. Martin of Tours, an 
artistic masterpiece, and the Grotto 
of Lourdes, a reproduction of the 
famous Shrine in France. Near the 
left wing of the Church lies the Re- 
mains. of Evangeline (Emmeline La- 
biche), her statue is over her grave. 
In the foreground is a clump of Wild
