Rupert Peyton
Rupert Rudolph Peyton (February 14, 1899 – October 19, 1982) was an anti-Long member of the Louisiana House of Representatives from Shreveport, the seat of Caddo Parish, having served at-large for a single four-year term from 1932-1936.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Membership in the Louisiana House of Representatives, 1880-2008 )〕 Peyton is also remembered as a North Louisiana journalist and historian.
==Early years==
Peyton was born on a farm near Sarepta, Louisiana. Though Sarepta is in Webster Parish, Peyton is considered a native of neighboring Bossier Parish. It is possible that the farm was near Sarepta but also in Bossier Parish.〔 Peyton finished six years at the old Line School four miles west of the Red Land community. The school, a crude building built of logs, was named because of its location between Wards Three and Four in northern Bossier Parish. The facility closed in 1912 and merged with other one-room schools to become Red Land Consolidated School. Shortly before his death, Peyton recalled his youthful experiences at old Line in the article "Beloved School of My Childhood" published in ''The Journal of the North Louisiana Historical Association,'' since renamed ''North Louisiana History''. Peyton thereafter attended nearby Plain Dealing High School. Peyton then enrolled in 1918 at Louisiana Industrial Institute (now Louisiana Tech University) in Ruston and served for three months there with the Students Army Training Corps. He did not attend college but learned his craft of journalism from practical experience.〔Rupert Peyton, ''A Brief Self-Sketch", ''North Louisiana Historical Association Journal'', Vol 13, No. 4 (Fall 1982), p. 27〕
Peyton's newspaper career began as a reporter for the ''Haynesville News'' in Haynesville in northern Claiborne Parish. He later worked for ''Shreveport Times'' and was then a reporter and city editor from 1925 into the 1940s for the rival and since defunct ''Shreveport Journal'', owned for years by the family of Douglas F. Attaway. In 1931, Peyton was listed in ''Shreveport Men and Women Builders''. After his time at the ''Shreveport Journal'', Peyton edited three former newspapers in Bossier City: the ''Bossier City Tribune'', the ''Bossier City Press'', and the ''Bossier City Banner-Progress''. He also wrote other works for the ''North Louisiana History''.〔William McCleary, "Remembering Rupert Peyton (1899-1982) Journalist and State Representative'', ''North Louisiana History'', Vol. 40, No. 1 (Winter 2009), p. 22〕
