1916–17 · POLK READ WHOLE
The 1916 canvass carries the practice line at three chairs. Frank H. Foster, physician; Joseph B. Waynick, physician; Isaac W. Borden, dentist — the whole of the town's professional health roll in Polk's 1916–17 entry, with Francis D. Warner's drugs and notions as the trade's dispensing counter beside them. Between McDonald's 1880 sketch and this roll, and between this roll and the modern clinics, the record reached carries no practitioner names at all: the middle of the town's medical century is its standing thin place, banked as a named gap (GAP-NC3-HEALTH-2), settlers the mid-century directory canvasses and the Gazette's and Town Crier's advertising and news columns. The drug line itself ends with Warner in the record reached — no pharmacy stands in the town's 2026 association roll — and modern dispensing runs to sister-city pharmacies at pointer strength.
