VIRGIL C. REYNOLDS, M.D., MORROW.--Dr. Reynolds is a native of St.
Landry parish, Louisiana, and was born in the year 1867, November 7.  He
is the son of Dr. W. B. and Mary (Buchanan) Reynolds.  His father was a
native of Georgia and his mother of Louisiana.  Dr. W. B. Reynolds was a
graduate of the Georgia State Institute, and also a graduate in Medicine
from the Medical College of Georgia, at Augusta.  Soon after completing
his medical course he removed to Big Cane, St. Landry parish, Louisiana,
where he married twice.  Here he practised [sic] his profession until
his demise in 1886, at the age of forty-seven years.  Mrs. Reynolds
followed him in the year 1887, at the age of forty-two years.  The
subject of our sketch spent his boyhood days in St. Landry parish, and
received his education principally in Joe Brown University, Dalton,
Georgia, although he completed his studies in Keachi College, Keachi,
Louisiana, graduating in 1887 with the degree of A. M.  In the autumn of
the same year he entered the Louisville Medical College, completing his
studies and receiving his diploma in 1889.  Upon the completion of his
course, he located at Morrow, Louisiana, and began the practice of his
profession, in which he has been very successful, having built up a
lucrative practice.  Dr. Reynolds is a young man of more than ordinary
natural resources and intellectual culture, and is destined to become a
shining light in his profession.
