Young County Texas Tidbits

Young County Texas Tidbits



From the Graham Leader

July 23, 1877
Dr. J. Dunlap hereby notifies the citizens of Young and surrounding counties, that he will
on the 1st day of July 1877, resume the practice of medicine and surgery. Although not
the possessor of one thousand dollars worth of instruments, he will be enabled to perform
any operation that may be required in surgery, also to loan his instruments to any member
of the profession.

July 23, 1877
Dr. Cagle operated on a little child of Geo. Glasgow's, Esq, for Hare-lip, closing a fissure
in the upper lip, three quarters of an inch wide, and extending into the nostril. The
operation was a perfect success; the child is now well and the parents are happy. The
Doctor operated by a new method of perfoming this very delicate operation which is
much more successful than the old method of cutting down through the free edge of the
lip.
