.Hr. I.'e Montluzin was born in St. James Parish, l*a., forty-aeven years ago. He attended Tulane University, wnero he graduated from the medloal rollege and then went to Paris to complete hie studies and take speotal
oourses In surgery. From the very beginning of hla career as a doctor he showed that he waa destined to be a particularly suocessful surgeon, and these early predictions were brought to full fruition, as he epjoyed a lucrative practice until stricken with paralysis and was obliged to leave the city to seek rest and lighter work. He went to Bay 8t. Louis, where hla brothers conduot a pharmacy on the beach front, facing the Pickwick Hotel.
while here Dr. De Montluzin waa a member of the Pickwick, Boston and other exclusive clubs and Carnival organisations, always taking a leading
fart in them. His fellow-members at he time joined with many other friends in expressing regret that disease made It necessary for him to leave.
Dr. De Montluzin waa as gifted with the pen as he was with the surgeon's knife, and he wrote many splendid medical papers for Journals in this country and Europe, which alao won for him much distinction.
