DR. W. D. MIXSON

      This fine young doctor was born at Tabernacle, Coffee county,  being born 
to John E. and Elmira Mixson  on the 18th of April, 1870, and he was educated 
in the common schools of the country, taking a pretty high course at Kinsey, 
Ala.  In early life he joined the Methodist church, and he has been a
faithful member all the while and is considered one of the best men in all this 
part of the moral vineyard, After becoming a man he read medicine and graduated 
in medicine at one of the finest colleges in the south in Chattanooga, Tenn., 
and at once entered upon the practice of medicine, and he has been a growing 
success all the time.   
  His practice has so grown that it is a great effort and labor for him to keep 
up with it.  Dr. Mixson is also a Mason of high standing and a lover of the 
order.  On May 11, 1898, he located at Haw Ridge, of this county, and an 
immense practice has developed upon him.  On June 4th, 1899, he married that 
most charming young woman, Miss Pearl F. Fuller, of Haw Ridge, one of the 
fairest of Dale's fair flowers.  
  This handsome gentleman counts as many friends as any man in all of this 
section and no man can claim rightfully any more than he can.  
  He keeps up with the latest in all the medical world, and (? next words 
faded) in surgery and medicine along with any of the very best.  He is a great 
success with his many patients and their great devotion to him shows how he is 
regarded by his people and patronage.  
  Dr. Mixson is a whole soul fellow and has always a kind word and pleasant 
look for everyone, and has those natural traits of character that makes him 
winner of hearts.  
  This gentleman we have often noted his bearing and deportment in and among 
the people and we do believe he is one of the smoothest, even tempered men we 
have ever known.  He meets all with an easy, dignified manner that is drawing, 
and he captures the citadel of your heart, and the first thing you know you are 
admiring and loving him.  
  His office is well equipped, and his brain is as bright as a dollar, and his 
thoughts are as sharp as his surgeon's knife, and his ways are a gentle as a 
little girl.  
  When we talk to people over about Haw Ridge we find they all are admirers of 
this good man and that he is winning golden opinions from them, because of his 
very learned and successful way of practicing medicine in the various families 
who are so fortunate in securing his valuable services.  
  We thank Coffee very much for this fine learned young doctor, and if you have 
any more like him we are ready with open hands to receive them.  
  Good luck to you Doctor.
