Mr.. M. R. Williams, formerly with
the Coast Line in this city, now with
the same road in st. Petersburg, has
been admitted to the bar. We were
not aware that Malcolm intended en-
tering on the practice of the law, but
when we take into consideration the
frequent lucid and well-grounded ar
guments we have heard him make for
his road before the railroad commits
sion and the board of trade, we can
well believe he will make a good re-
cord in the courts.
