Perrymans Move to Talbot

(Editorial from Columbus Enquirer-Sun)

Announcement has been made that A. Jones Perryman, for
eight years solicitor-general for the Chattahoochee
circuit, will this week move his law offices to Talbotton
and that on the first of next month, the Perrymans will
move their residence there.

Mr. Perryman has a wide acquaintance and many friends
throughout the judicial circuit who will be interested in
his new move.  Both he and Mrs. Perryman have many
friends here who will regret that they are to leave
Columbus and these will be glad to know that it is their
announced intention to visit Columbus frequently.

Mr. Perryman like his father and grandfather before him
has had an illustrious public career.  Serving as mayor
of Talbotton, member of the state legislature, where as
head of the large penitentiary committee he was
instrumental in bringing about far-reaching reforms in
the state penal system, and as solicitor-general for two
four-year terms.

He is a man of considerable ability and has well
justified the friendship that so many have imposed on
him.
