Receiving the congratulations and good wishes of their many friends, Dr. and Mrs. Manget are now back in At lanta, where tne former will shortly es tablish a practice of his own, having planned to sever the connection he has had for some time with Drs. Jarnigan and Hancock at the Atlanta hospital. Less than two months previous to the marriage of his brother, Dr. Frederick P. Manget, also a former house-surgeon at the Grady hospital, was married to Miss Louise Anderson, of Marietta, the wedding taking place Sept. 29, and the couple setting sail Oct. 20 for Soo Chow, China where Dr. Manget will be a med ical missionary connected with the Methodist Medical School at that point. The Manget brothers are sons of Prof. V. E. Manget, of Marietta, a Metho dist minister of note and well-known as an educator in the South.
