Selig, G. - 1874

State News
Mr. G. Selig who has for some time been doing business in Dallas, Texas, has moved with his family to Auburn.  He does not give a flattering account of Texas, and says many of the people who have gone from Lee county would like to return. 

It is better to stay where we are in this healthy country and lovely climate, and restore our lands by judicious farming, than to take the hazards of health and many other disadvantages in the far west.
~ Birmingham Iron Age, 12-Feb-1874, Page 2, Column 5
