July of 1992
"Summer of Purpose"
Public works crews constructed hundreds of feet of fence down the middle of
Bennington Ave. and on a privately owned vacant lot next door to the Delta Women's
Clinic to separate pro-lifers from the clinic and its pro-abortion forces.
Bennington Avenue will be closed "until further notice," city-parish officials said.
DPW crews installed a 6-foot-tall chain link fence
around a vacant lot adjacent to the clinic on Bennington Avenue and installed a
similar fence down the middle of Bennington Avenue near the clinic.
The work was done to prepare for Operation Rescue's "Summer of Purpose”
protests in Baton Rouge. Delta was considered the primary target of the
pro-life group Operation Rescue In Baton Rouge.
![]() Police try to break up protesters from both sides of the abortion
issue as a pre-dawn clash erupts when protesters try
to establish lines in front of the clinic.
![]() The perverse and homicidal philosophy of abortion has
led our nation to contentment with a profane lifestyle. Those
who witness against these atrocities will be martyred.

![]() ![]() "All human beings (from conception to natural death) are
endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights and that
among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness".

side of the fence in front of Delta Women's Clinic as
Franciscan Friar Dan Norviel holds a twelve foot crucifix.

with Bishop Vaughn - his classmate in seminary.
Bishop Ott had terminal cancer and yet he asked to
be driven to the Delta "Death Camp" to pray with his flock.
