           [416]

           CHARLES DAVIS, M.D., practicing physician and surgeon at Sand
        Beach, was born March 18, 1850, in the township of Turner, Andro-
        scoggin Co., Maine.  He is the son of THOMAS and RACHEL (SOPER)
        DAVIS, and his father was a farmer.  The latter was born in Maine,
        and died in the village of Turner, in June, 1868.  The mother was
        also born in the Pine-Tree State, and resides at present in Sand
        Beach with her son.
           DR. DAVIS passed the first 20 years of his life on his father's
        farm, when he entered the Literary Department of Bates College, at
        Lewiston, Maine. He matriculated there in 1869, and was graduated
        in 1873. He engaged a short time in teaching, after which he
        entered the Medical Department of Bowdoin College at Brunswick,
        Maine, going thence, after one term of study, to the City Hospital
        at Boston, where he had all the advantages of the varied character
        of the medical and surgical practice for one year. He then became a
        salesman in a drug store in Detroit, where he remained until 1878,
        meanwhile attending lectures in the Detroit Medical College where
        he was graduated in March, 1878. Within the same month in which he
        received his credentials, he came to Sand Beach, and, in company
        with DR. JOHNSON, established a joint practice, which relation
        existed a few months. He opened an office alone, and has conducted
        his business with such skill and efficiency as to establish a popu-
        lar and prominent practice. He ranks among the leading physicians
        and surgeons of the county. During the past two years he has
        officiated as village and township physician.  DR. DAVIS has one
        brother, FRANK by name.
