new mayor — As 16th Judicial District Court Judge Curtis Segur (back to camera) administers the oath of office to newly-elected St. Martinville Mayor Melinda “Mel” Mitchell, her proud father Dennis Narcisse (right) holds the Bible and husband Lawrence looks on. Mitchell is the first elected female mayor in the city’s 200 year history. A crowd of more than 200 braved the 95 degree heat to witness the ceremony on the Courthouse lawn on Saturday, June 29.(Karl Jeter)
