, TYptcAI COUNTRY DOCTOR.

Nearly u month ago. or to be exact,
on the 10Th of December. william s.
Christian. a Doctor OF Medicine. died
in Middlesex County. Virginia. He was
nearly eighty years OF age. and every
year OF his mature life Was spent in
service 10 humanity a correspondent
writes of him as follows:
DR.. Christian was gallant Confed-
crate soldier. receiving the rank OF
colonel for his bravery. and he was
admired and loved by all who served
under him. After the war he took up
the practice Of medicine in MiddleseX
county There is hardly a Preside In
Middlcscy or in the surrounding coun-
ties that has not received the comfort
and good cheer of this man. Ills rep
utation AS Il man and doctor spread
far and wide. and the result is that
long before his death he was almost
ido!ized by the Icopie who knew him.
Now comes surprising fact: Ills
books show that the people OF his
county and the surrounding territory
are indebted to Him in the amount OF
$5o,Dp"' Al his death lie probably
left no more cash than would clear up
his outstanding debts. ! do not re-
quest sou TO culogiZc Dr. Christian;
but would like you to mention these
things that have written as the cxpe-
,icnce of d large per cent of country
doctors.
Verify, our correspondent has struck

know Dr Christian but his name was
evidently the key OF his character and
