Prospecting in Other Towns.
In another column of The News will
be found the professional card Of DR..
j. M. Bosworth, who was raised in
Atlanta and who has practiced as a
specialist there for quite twenty years
in general surgery, female diseases,
diseases of the eye, ear, throat, nose,
bronchial troubles and chronic
troubles of males, doing an office
work.
Doctor Bosworth deserves notice in
our columns i'm his beginning work in
Dawson for the reason he came to this
city after well considering many other
places, both in Georgia and in Flor
ida, and has in very quiet and unos-
tentatious manner leased four large
rooms, remodeled them, painted them,
papered them, took lease on them
for three years, and with help and
his own hands has prepared himself
to serve any who may wish his pro-
fessional services.
DR.. Bosworth brings to Dawson
and to the people of Terrell county
and the surrounding sections of coun-
try the very highest testimonials of
his character and professional merit
from the pens of the present governor
of Georgia, the present mayor Of the
city of Atlanta, and from the presi-
dent of the largest and most powerful
banking house in Atlanta, all bespeak-
irg for him the courtesies and conf
dence of our people, which letters Of
introduction he secured since he rented
quarters and decided to permanently
locate in Dawson.
These endorsements speak volumes
in substance and bear the names
of the several honorable persons
above named, and in order that
any person not knowing any
thing of DR.. Bosworth can see them
he has them in his general reception
room, next to his private cOnsulta-
ton room, on the mantle where every
one who enters his Office can see them
and read them.
A little history of all this will
doubtless be of some interest to some
of our readers, hence we give 1t Just
as the doctor gave it to US for the IN
formation OF those interested, VIZ:
Two years ago DR.. BoswOrth was
stricken with a severe congestion OF
the liver" a dangerous disease: was
stricken suddenly while at work IN his
Atlanta Office about noon: was lmme-
diately taken to the Grady hospital IN
it's ambulance attended by several OF
the prominent physicians OF Atlanta
who had Office rooms IN the same
building he occupied, and for months
he was so Frustrated he could 90
nothing but suffer. On the 9Th day OF
November, 1904, he underwent a most
serious and dangerous operation, IS
a last resort for life, at St. Josephs
Inhrmary in Atlanta, the operation
being performed by Dr. Floyd McRae
and his assistant surgeons. and at
the time even DR.. McRae had little
hopes OF saving his life, as an abscesS
had been forming a long while In three
lobes of the liver and he was almost
dead from its ravages.
But with care and good nursing at
St. JOSephS ne soon falIleu, anu
when able to be taken to Florida on
sleeper he was carried there by
special professional white male nurse,
being in poverty of flesh, weak and
Frustrated. He spent the whole winter
in Florida, slowly improving, and in
April was able to return to his home
in Atlanta, when he solemnly prom
ised his wife, after her opportunities,
to quit work entirely and forever, that
he would close his Atlanta office and
never offer his services in the city any
more to The public, And he gave up
his beautiful suit of rooms In the
Chamberlain & johnson building at
once and stored his whole Office t1xt-
ures and furniture.
Since April, however, he has re-
gained his health, his bouyant, old
time spirits, his flesh and his strength
