    DOCTOR J. P. RATHBUN was one of the first settlers in Faulk county and was

successful in his practice as a physician and when the settlers by reason of

drougths and failures of crops were unable to pay for his services, he was as

ready to respond to every call, as though they had the money, and many a poor

family have reason to remember him with gratitude, for his visits of mercy, to

minister to the wants of the sick and suffering.



    A few months ago Dr. Rathbun removed from Faulkton to Wecota, a new town ten

miles from this city on the St. Louis & Minneapolis railroad, where he is

enjoying a successful practice.
