DR.. w. c. Linch of Weir, accom-.
panied by his wife, passed through
Alderman Tuesday en- route to Macon,
where they will make their home, and
where he will practice his profession
in the future. We regret to lose the
! citizenship of DR.. Linch ard his splen-
did family. DR.. Linch has been a
successful practitioner at Weir for a
number of years and no physician in
the county stands higher in his pro-
fession than does he. Ard all that we
say of him az physician we can say
of him as a mamie stands at the
very top socially. The Weir people
hate to give up DR.. and Mrs. Linch
and their two daughters, because they
have been among the first in every
movement for the social and civic i'm
provement of their town and vicinity,
DR.. Linch is well equipped in his pro-
fession and we wish him the success
in his new field that he has had here.
And we wish that every good thing
will flow into the lives of each member
Of this excellent family in afiiuent

pies are beautiful, white esquimaux,
bulls, pointers. crocker spaniels and
every other sort, including some little
temers about as big as a minute. There
are hundred or so parrots from those
as large as turkeys to some no larger
than mocking birds. The clatter they
keep up is deafening. The other morn

as I always do; there were about ten
Italians looking in the window at the
monkeys and chattering and theirs and
the parrots chatter were very much
alike.

that he came down to the convention

intoa very conspicuous place in the

 My Dear Mir. Troy; Allow me to express through the columns of your valuable Democratic paper niy regrets at my inability to attend the National Democratic convention to be held at St. Louis, to which con- vention I had the honor of being elected by my friends to attend.
 At the time of my election ] saw nothing in the way to prevent my fulfilling the wishes of my friends and attending the convention In ques- ton. But on account of my being unable to finish the trial of some important cases at KetchllSan and have decision rendered one way or the other in them until today, l felt 1t my duty to stay at home and protect the interest of my clients rather than to attend the convention. Other matters also which are per sonal to myself transpired after my election which rendered 1t impossi- bio for me to leave here at this time.
