A CiEOUGIAN IN TEXAS.
Edwin L. Antony, who has recently
been elected ea Mr. Mills* successor in
the I'uited Mates Congress, is a "Geor
gia boy.” He is the grandson of the
late Dr. Milton Antony, of this city, and
nephew of Mrs. Dr. L I*. Garvin, who
now lives on the corner of Broad and
Elbert street*.
About 1858 or 1859 his father, Dr. Mil
ton Antony, Jr., moved to Texas where
"Ed" wa* raised. He was sent back to
Georgia to complete his education at
the .Mate University, where he gradu
ated with considerable honor. Upon bis
return to bl* adopted Mate, Texas, be
entered upon the practice of law, where
he very soon took a fine stand, and when
about 90 year* old tie was elected a
Judge of the Su|wrior Court. While
filling this position creditably, he
recently nominated to AU Mr. Mills' un-
expired term. Uls competitor for the
nomination was the l.lcutcnant Gov
ernor of the State. He was elected by a
large majority orer the Third party can
didate.
Mr. Antony has nercr been in politics,
was taken from the bench, and goes to
