DR.. Carman Well Liked.
Or. Carman is one Of the most popu-
lar physicians in Froeport. The Trib-
une's correspondent has vet 20 find a
mar of responsibility 10 speak i'll OF
him. He has built up practice. the
income from which, according to care
full estimate. is from g 900 to 10000
year.
Roland VI. Lamb. President Of the
village, about summed the towns opin-
ion when he said: "Dr. Carman Is one
of the best-hearted men in the world.
He will do anything for a friend or
any one in trouble. Why. he would
answer call from patient whom
he knew he never could collect a cent
from quicker than those who paid
Doctor. YOU know some Of your
friends here say YOU are as popular
with the women as you are with the
men said the reporter. "How about
that"
81 want to tell YOU enc thing re
piled the physician with great earnest
ness. Ever since ! started practising
! made it a rule that my Office vas
for business, and business only. Any
man or woman who comes to my Office
comes there on business. They dor :
come there 10 see me for anything else
except for Drofes sional treatment.
That is my lifelong rule; it always
has been and it always will be-"
In this same connection DR.. Carman
was very much annoyed by District
Attorney Smiths statement last night.
Mr.. Smith was asked this question:
"May it be assumed that these
women called DR.. Carman to attend
them profes sionally when they really
did not need him because they were
fond of him."
And his answer was, THAT is a
natural inference"
If the District Attorney made any
such statement" said the doctor. 1T
was most unfair 10 me. Such state
ments are bound to hurt a physician.
That women should call on me and
pay ne good money when they don I
need me is ridiculous. One would
think was posing as some sort of an
Adonis."
In speaking of the installation OF the
photograph by Mrs. Carman, the physi-
clan said that as things turned out he
regretted that incident exceedingly.
at has resulted in most OF the
notoriety that both my wife and have
received" he asserted. He admitted
that it was this instrument which
ultimately led Mrs. Carman to admit
that she realized that suspicion was
pointing toward her.
Dr. Carman said that a large part
of his practice was genealogical.
at is lucrative practice" he said,
because if women once engage ply
stefan they generally retain him"
Trouble Over Health job.
The doctor is broad shouldcred,
heavy set man, whose whole bearing
fairly eXudes good nature, good tenn
per and good humor. As far as The
Tribune's correspondent has been able
TO find out nc has mad trouble with
lust one man in FreepOrt or anywhere
else. That did not amount TO much,
and arose over DR.. Carman's selection
for the position Of health officer Of
the town.
He has the reputation Of being a
good physician, but poor collector.
In his Younger days. Dr. Carman took
great interest in the trottng horse and
had valuable collection Of racers.
He is good mixer He tells good
story and thoroughly enjoys one. lie
is not fond Of physical exertiOn and
believes in taking life with an easy
good nature.
DR.. Carman works hard profession
~
he believes in going in strongly for
rest and recreation. He IS fond OF
watching Yacht races. horse races, base
ball games in fact. almost any variety
Of competition.
ole was always willing 20 20 TO the
mat for any Of US. and now that he is
tied up in a disagrceable scandal we
are willing 10 20 TO the mat for him"
That is the sentiment Of Freeporters.
Dr. Carman has probably saved little
or nothing. He is free spender and
that. taken in connection with the fact
that he is poor collector and had
much rather lose an account than both
or himself with sending in urgent bills,
has kept him from accommodating
wealth.
His good nature has ,cen severely
tested i'm many ways since the murder
Of Mrs. Bailey. but il fas borne the
test well. DR.. Carm;n has been
courteous 70 all those who have dis
cusscd the case with him. He has
borne a cheerful front most Of the
time. but he has felt the strain and 1t
has told or him.
When he LEFT the stand after testify
ing at the inquest he was probably as
clio 20 "a nervous breakdown as he
has ever been in his life.
The fact that Mrs. Carman had 80
little faith in him that she installed a
distograph 10 Ovcrhcar his CONVERSE
tons with women patients must have
been severe shock TO him, yet never
has he shown that he was hurt by this
act Of his wifc's; never has he said one
word Of criticism Of her or even hintcd
il. Instead, he has repeatedly asserted
his belief in his wife, his love for her,
shown his loyalty 20 her IN every way.
