7-30-1909 
Dr. P. P. Boggan, and his estimable wife and daughter, Miss Mai, left here for
Forrest City where they will make their home. Dr. Boggan came to East Prairie
from New Madrid county in 1894, and at once became identified with the affairs
of this city, taking an active part in the work of developing the city and
country along educational and industrial lines. He was the president of the
board of education for nine years. As a physician, he ranks with the best in his
profession. He is strictly ethical being a member of the Mississippi county, the
Missouri, and the American Medical Association. The doctor is a democrat, and
always ready to defend the principles of his party. He is an optimist, believing
that there is a silver lining in every cloud. He is distinctly a gentleman of
the old school, refined and generous, with a strict regard for his word, we will
miss him and wish him the best in his new residence.
