Fred now being county treasurer; the Cherrys, Earl Cherry being the county clerk and to whom this chronicler feels a debt of gratitude for assistance in compiling this history.

The list of officials in Sioux county for efficiency from beginning to the present time, stand high in the counties of the Panhandle. The records were and are well kept, and these that we have met are splendidly courteous and will go out of their way to accommodate the public and the stranger.

Doctor Graham was the first resident doctor of Sionx count}-, and he was a ranchman, and not a regular practitioner.

The first doctor to register in Sioux county was George Jefferson Shafer. Some time before registration was started he attended the sick. He came with the beginning of the town of Harrison. Frank Dooley Burgess was the next to register, in eighteen eighty-nine, but he does not seem to be remembered as a resident doctor, and more than likely lived outside the county. In eighteen ninety the name of Doctor J. L. A. Ziegenhagin appears. In the early nineties Doctor Bridgeman and Doctor Julian E. Phinney were practising in the Harrison vicinity. In the late nineties, Doctors L. W. Bowman and Levi J. C. Berchard, registered.

The first veterinarian registered in eighteen ninety-eight was Doctor E. E. Barr.

Shortly after nineteen hundred Doctors Albro J. Ames and Clyde Davis were practicing physicians in Sioux comity. These were followed by M. A. Nye, Richard L. Pans. George A. Matthews, and A. A. Potlief.
