1t has been arranged by DR.. Lynde |
that the Rev. Perry Marshall shall take
his place among the practicing physi- |
clans of this place. Mr.. Marshall has |
formerly practiced medicine while he |
was preaching at, and near Rutland, and |
is highly recommended as a Christian |
gentleman, as well as q practitioner in |
the medical art. He has the benefit, as |
we are informed, of Il thorough educa-
ton in both schools of practice, and we'll
understands the advantages of each, and |
will use the profit of this knowledge for |
the health of his patrons.
DR.. Lynde, who with years or more
practice here, had gained permanent |
place at many bedsides, is about to de- |
part for Chicago, where he hopes to find |
a broader pathway to success in his spec
ialty. He sold his goods on Saturday |
and will 60 soon. We regret the depar-
ture of these professionals, for each de-
parture makes the business of our town
less stable and prosperous. But it is
claimed That there are advantages to~ghe
public that ought not to be overlooked. |
The general health is better and presum-
ably would improve, both physically and |
morally, if further changes were made |
in this and other professional ranks. |
People will reason and draw differences |
justly from these premises.
We mentioned in last weeks issue the |

II. B. Faunce, our accommodating stage
proprietor and driver, Truly these men
are in luck, but not they alone, for we
learn of other channels through which her |
selt-acquired means has freely flown, and
invariably to the pleasure and benefit of
some one who knew well how to appre- |
ciate these kindly deeds. She unassum-
ingly scatters her charities by the way
side, that the worthy may be profited |
thereby, without public knowledge of
her open and liberal hand.

and we hope they will respond promptly |
when the agent calls on them EDS.
