The Medical Profession

DR. JOHN BELTON SPARLING, son of Wyndham Sparling, of Marion Township, was born in Ireland, and graduated as a surgeon in that city. On obtaining his diploma in 1851, he went as surgeon of Her Majesty's vessel, carrying Sir John McDonald as governor to Sierra Leon. He landed at Charleston, S. C., and came thence to his father's where he soon had a large practice. Falling into the temptation of drink, a career that might have been useful and brilliant was ruined. He was probably the best read physician ever in this county. He died in April 1878, leaving a family of five young children.
