| Mr.
John Bishop, who is now up north preaching, was the first attorney
who located in Vicksburg, but he was closely followed by Mr. L.
M. Flint. Mr. Flint received his head education in the offices of
Kimble and (Conlon), of Charlotte, and of another firm of attorneys
in Hastings, and was admitted to the bar in ('61). He practiced
law for ten years in Vicksburg. Six years ago he accepted a position
in the public school of Marcellus, and from there went to other
points in the state. Two years ago he took up his residence in Battle
Creek, where he resided until last Spring when he returned to Vicksburg.
The outlook from the legal standpoint is, he assures us, encouraging,
and we hope somebody will contest a will down there pretty soon,
so that he can get some fat fees out of it.
