A Sketch of the Late Thomas Shelton
Fox, M. D.
Thomas Shelton Fcx, M. D, the
eldest son of John and Eliza Poindexter
Fox, was born at L xiDgtc-n
O >urt House, S C, September 1st,
ii?? TTio educational advantages
JL ? _
in )outh were the best to be had in
\is native county. At the ?ge cf
nineteen he entered the famous University
of Virginia, graduating with
distinction at the end of the third
year. The profession of medicine W8S
chosen a3 his life work, and beiDg
ambitious to excel, he attended
and graduated from one cf the best
colleges of medicine in the city of
New York. After graduation he
6pent eighteen months in active practice
in a hospital on Blackwell's Island,
N. Y, under the eye of some of
the ablest practicioners of that day.
From there he returned to his native
State and began the practice of his
profession in Orangeburg county
near the town cf Branchville.
He enlisted in the Confederate
* (
Anril. as a corporal in
? ?r?' '
the Edisto Rifle?, Co. A, First Regiment,
South Carolina Infantry, commanded
by Col. Eagood. Thi3 regiment
was disbanded after the fall
of Fort Samter when he enlisted as
a Sergeant in Company B, Sixth
South Carolina cavalry. After eight
months service in thi3 command he
was promoted to the position of Assistant
surgeon and was assigned to
the Sixty-sixth North Carolina regi
meat, then stationed at Wilmiogton,
N. C. Ee served in that capacity until
Johnson's forces surrendered at
G.-eencboro, N C. Ee participated
in the bombardment of Fort Sumter,
S. C, the battle of Bermuda Hundred,
Va , Plymouth, N C , the siege
of Petersbug, Va., Fort Fisher, N.
C., and the battle of Bentonvilie, N
C His career as a soldier was
narked bv that feat less devotion to
-
duty which wa3 to b9 expected of
one who possessed his love of country
and his high sense of personal
honor.
No sooner had the smoke of battle
cleared away than he returned to his
own and his fathers native county
and resumed the practice of medicine,
locating in 1S66, near to where
the present town of Batesburg now
stands. When he came the man was
almost wholly unknown and the
physician was well nigh an utter
stranger in the entire community. It
was not long before the physician's
skill attracted public attention and
through the physician the people
came to know the man. To know him
was to respect, admire, honor and
love him. When the railroad was
built and the town located in 1869,
he became a citizen of Batesburg
and has been ever since. Ia 1879 he
won the heart and hand of Miss
Mamie- YouDgblood, the eldest
daughter of Mr. Louis W. Young
o o
blood of E Jgefield county. To them
have been born six children?five sons
and a daughter?the first born, a
8 >n, dying in infancy.
Soon after the civil war Dr. Fox
b:came a member of the Masonic
fra-eroity, in the principles and pro
gress of which he cherished a lively
interest. His zeal and devotion to
the ord^r were recognized and
rewarded by his brother Masons in
his repeated elevation to the highest
office within their gift. He was the
first and last Master of Batesburg
Lodge A. F. M. It may be mentioned
as a coincidence that the first
Mason made in theBatesburg Lodge
acted as Master at the burial of Dr.
Fox, the first Master.
He died at 2 o'clock p. m., March
5, 1900, of heart disease. For a
year previous to his death he had occasional
symptoms of the fatal malady,
but not until a few weeks before
bis death did they assume a dangerous
form. The shock which came to
the hearts and homes of a multitude
iD town and country, as the news went
abroad "Dr. Fox's dead," can never
be understood except by those who
ft-lt it. We all knew he filled a large
place in our hearts and in cur community,
but wo did not realize how
large until we were brought to look
into the great void his death had
TV?r a third nf epntnrv his
rela-ions to the community bud been
such as to mark birri more than any
o her man, aj entitled to t e honorable
distinction, '*our fifbt citizen."
I', is cot txtravagant to say, in the
long procession which followed Lis
hearse, almost every individual was a
re-.l mourner. It was said at his
f mira! that 'Dr. Fox's worth to the
community was indicated by the good
he had done and by the friends he
had made." Ilis friends were not
made?they gttw. He courted the
friend-h'pof no ruar; but ha did
possess in a remarkable degree that
n iesciible something known as pers.

help it. Few men are so highly fa j
vored in this respect as he. In hr
professional life, as already re
marked, he was noted for his wisdoo
io medical science and for his skill iD
its practice. He was not a specialist
unless it were lawful to say he was
sich aloDg many lines. He wss
equally successful in hi3 treatment of
a variety of diseases. His early advantages
in hospital and camp were
a potent factor in his success and
were manifest throughout his career.'
He had few equals and probably nc
superior outside the larger cities.
Dr. Fox was a conspicious exception
fco the rule that familiaiity with suf
feriDg makes men indifferent to it.
His sympathy for his patients was
prove* bi?l throughout his exlensiv*
practice, and this, as well as his skill,
made his coming a benediction in
the homes of the affl cted. He never
gave needless pain by knife or drug.
The generous nature of the man
was largely revealed in the physi
cian's bills. With his acknowleged
ability his pecuniary success might
have been far greater than it was had
he been disposed to be exacting.
His charges were always moderate
and full many a sufferer has found
relief at bis hands for which no compensation
was demanded or expected
It was a rule of his professional life
never to charge a minister of the
gospel for services to himself o*
family. He has been known to have
as many as eight preachers' families
in his practice at the same time and
in this way he has been probably the
most liberal contributor to ministerial
support in the entire community.
But bis life was^ not all professional
in its iifluence and helpfulness.
Whatever concerned men
interested him. His was a public
spirit which found expression io
ways and means for improving
the conditions of his fellows. He
was by no means a novice in business
life. He read, thought and
studied the business interests of the
people and exerted himself in behalf
of 'those among whom he lived. As
was to be expected he wa3 the friend
and patron of education. For fifteen
years previous to his death he had
been a trustee of his home school
and two of his sons were at college
when notified of their father's death.
As a State South Carolina was his
mother and he loved her with the ardor
cf a devoted son. Like every
true patriot he despised government
a' shams and felt a righteous contempt
for demagogues and place
hunters. His political sympathies
were as wide as the national domain.
He was a citizen of the United States;
but, like most men ' who wore the
gray," he couldn't empty his heart
of its warm affection for ''.he cause"
I which was drowned in a ilood of patriotic
blood. For him there was in
the Stars and Bars a glory which
time nor circumstance can ever dim
A.t the time of bis death he was
commander of Cimp James Conner,
U. C V.
But perhaps, after all, that which
most endeared him to the hearts?
that which constituted the crowning
glory of his character and largely
made bira what he was in other respects,
was his domestic nature, his
home love and home life. His devo
tion to his fam.ly was a thing of
beauty. They were in his heart and
thought by day and by night. Every
ambition of his life were eubordiI
nated to that of providing for thc-m
the requisites cf a life of honor
and usefulness. This family affection
was by no means limited to wife
and children. His veneration f jt bis
parents was almost religious in its
sanctity and devotion. In an ac
quaintaDce cf more than thirty years
this writer fails to recall an instance
j in which be referred to father and
: motner except, in terms or respect,
j hoDor and warmest affection, Happy
j parents! Worthy sol! Beloved friend,
j farewell! As a faint tribute of ray
| heart's love and as a poor expression
j of my gratitude for your kindness
i through all these yeai'3 these lines
are penned. You are beyond their

to help those whom you most t n
deily loved, I bhall b? ron^nt.

A "Fus X" Romance.
Co the Editor of the Dispatch:
Oa December 27th, 1898, I went
wilb my good old friends, Mr. and
Mrs. C. L. Beard, publishers of the
Carolina News, to Portsmouth, Va ,
| aod over to Norfolk, thence down to
: old Virginia Beech. While sitting
; on the beech, watching the rolling
| waves of the mighty Atlantic, 1 con
J eluded to write a few lines and put
j them in a bottle which I had in my
| pocket. I do not know why that
bottle was in my packet, nevertheless
it was there, and about empty.
So you see, I had very little more use
'or it, knowing that the Sea cold not
->rase the Palmetto tree and letters
VS C," found on all ' fa98 X'' botles,
I thought I would try a new
way of advertising this great product
of our State. A strip of paper
containing the following words was
placed in the bottle
j ' Norfolk, Va., Doc. 28.h, 1898
J This bottle was thrown in for an ad|
veitisement. If found address us
j and be rewarded. Mr. and Mrs. C.
j L Beard, editors of the Carolina
News, Chapin, S. C, S. J. Clark,
i Chapin, S. C."
| The bottle was then securely cork|
ed and cast into the sea, to float
j wherever the winds and waves might
| carry it.
i After fifteen months, when the inj
cident had almost been forgotten, I
| received the following lettei:

cording to the desire of the perI
formers, I concluded to send it on.
j The bottle which contained it was
: well covered with seaworme; and
i considering the time it was in the
| water the cork had done very good
work. Ycurs humble,
William Y. Swan,

The scrip of paper that was enj
closed in the bottle was returned
i with this letter, and is now in my
possession. The letter also, on anj
other page had the following: "The
[ reward, if little or greater will be
; thankfully received, as I am always
| needy." He evidently hopes to get
an other bottle having in it, not a
i ?
j piece of paper, but the original con,
tents.
It will be seen that the bottle was
! in the sea just 14 months, then con^
veniently turned up on an island,
just where it could be found, and the
finder notified the sender. If any

Another great discovery has been

but her vital organs were undermined
and death seemed imminent.
For three months she coughed incessantly,

Diagnosing Case.
Helen R. Girdmer, iu Harper, relates
this medical anecdote as one
: she heard from a surgeon's assistant,
a trained nurse.
Il was a Japanese boy. He was
as solid as a little ox, but be told Dr.
G. that he'd been taking a homeopathic
presetiption for a cold. That
was enough for Dr. G. A red flag

ing to the word "homee'patby" to
Dr. G He q lestioutd the little Jap,
who could not speak good English,
aud had the national inclination to
agree with whatever you say.
' Did you ev.jr spit blood asked
Dr. G. by and by, after be could fiud
nothing else wrong except the little
cold for which the homa- ipathic doctor
was treating the boy.
"Once,*' replied the youthful vie
tim.
"Aha! we are getting at the root
of this matter now," said Dr. G.
"Now tell me, tiuly. Did you spit
much blood ?*'
"Yes, sir, a good deal."
The doctor sniffed. He always
knew that a homeopathic humbug
cold not diagnose a case, and would
be likely to get just about as near
the facts as a light cold would come
to tuberculosis.
"How long did this last?" he innniroil

"I think? it eeems to me?
"A half hour queried the doctor,
"twenty minutes ?"
"I think so. Yes, sir. About
Half an hour?twenty minutae,'' lesponded
the obliging youth.
I heard that talk. Common sense
told me the boy's lungs were all
right, but it was none of my business.
So I watched him treated, off
and on, for lung trouble for over a
month before I got a chance to ask
him any questions. Then I asked,
incidentally:
"What made you spit that blood

*'T I'nni T rmorht. fn swallow

''Dentist pull tooth. He says
to me, 4Spit blood here'. I do like

I swallow him.51
If the Baby is Cutting Teeth

soothes the child, softens the gums,
allays all pain, cures wind colic and
is the best remedy for diarrhoea.

I - A
Hint to Farmers.
The average vitality of cotton
seeds is 93 per cent, that is to say,
93 out of every 100 seeds will germinate,
this year, however, according
to experiments by the agricultural
department at Washington with
seed of last year's crop, only 73 per
cent of the seeds hate enough vitality
to come up; so if you want a
good stand of cotton tbis year, you
must use more seed than usual by
say 20 per cent.

Congressman Sioke3 has again introduced
bis bill to provide for the
free delivery of mail along the star
routes. Although South Carolina is
now assured of this convenience
during the next four years, it is
merely through a rule of the department
instead cf by statute law. Dr.
Stokes is, therefoie, anxious to have
the matter clinched, so as to prevent
possible trouble hereafter.
Eczema I
The Only Cure,
Eczema is more than a skin disease,
and 110 skin remedies can cure it. The
doctors are unable to effect a cure, and
their mineral mixtures are damaging
to the most powerful constitution. i"he

Swift's Specific is the only remedy
which can reach such deep-seated bloc d
diseases.
Eczema broke out on my daughter, and'con*

Most Lovely Thing on Earth.
Sam Jones, the inimitable, whose
quaintness of style is equaled only
by the accuracy of his definitions and
descriptions, gave in a recent sermoD,
the following beautiful story, in
which he so charmingly portrayed
the most lovely thing on earth. We
do not remember to have seen anywhere
a prettier picture than this:
4,An angel was sent down from
heaven one day to bring back the
most beautiful thing oa earth. He
hunted long and carefully, saw a
bed of full blown American Beauty
roses, lovely beyond comparison, and
he gathered an armful and started ic
return to his home above.
[ "A9 he soared into the air he saw
a babj's smile and, filled by araptur
ous admiration at the sight, returned
to take it too. By its side he discovered
a mother's love, and with all
three in his arms he mounted to the
place beyond the skies.
"Just outside the pearly gates the
spirit paused for a moment, and lo!
the roses were withered and the
babj's Bmile had vanished, but strong
and faithful and serenely beautiful
as ever, mother's love remained; and
he cast the others aside and took this
and laid it at the feet of his Mastei
a9 the most lovely and lasting thing
on eaith."
