DR. HARRY A LAWTON IS i i
HERE AND HIS HANDSOME j
!
YACHT THE LOAFALONG!
The many friends of Dr. Harry a
Lawton, of Miami, were welcoming
him here- yesterday and were delight- ;
i J that lie came by on his handsome
yacht, the afalong.” Dr. Lawton
paid Brunswick a call last year about
this time, lie is enroute from his
homo at Miami to Washi%ton and
will leave today for Savannah where j
ho will proceed in his large automo
bile, the yacht taking the inland route
to the capital. After spending sever¬
al days in Washington, Dr. Lawton
will go to Atlantic City, N. J., for the
summer.
Dr. I.awton left here many years
ago but still is keenly interested in
the city and her people. Since his last
visit he has noted many improve¬
ments anfi is of the opinion that
Brunswick 1 will yet be a great city
and at a date not far distant. He is
of the opinion that construction of '
tire St. Simon highway will be the
means of enhancing realty values,
both here and on the island and will
mean that many will buy and build
at the delightful resort. The genial,
former citizen will, always receive a
warm welcome here.
