Dr. Aldrich was primarily educated in the public schools, and at Hillsdale Academy in Michigan. For fifteen years Dr.Aldrich has been practicing in Alabama, Illinois, and Arkansas. He located here in Forrest City in 1902, coming here from Huntsville, Alabama. Prior to that time he was practicing and training race horses. His first visit to this city was ten years prior to the above date, when he entered a stable of race horses at the grounds and track of the Eastern Arkansas Fair Association, one mile north of town. It was during this time that he met and married the splendid woman who is now his helpmate. They were united in marriage on April 5,1902 and are now living happily in this city. One child, a sweet baby girl, came to brighten their home for a brief time, and died at the age of five months.
