\f = ; COL. MclMOSH WAS PERSONAL I ^ . FRIEND OF BOTH LEE ASD T VIS ** j fcnightly Military Man Recently Deceased Was Xati?e of Society Hill j ?Organizer of Pee Dee Light U ? Artillery. Darlington Presa. The recent death of thi9 knightly gentleman, distinguished soldier and j patriotic citizen will 'bring a pang of regret to many of his old friends, especially those who served with him during the great struggle for Southern independence and who remember kis dauntless courage amid the storm ; of battle and bow high he stood in the estimation of his superior officers, j hTo show this it is only necessary to mention that he was promoted to, the rank of colonej. of artillery by General Lee himself, a position of great responsibility, and never conferred ex-, cept on a true and tried soldier. Colonel Mcintosh was born at So-; cviety Hill, a community noted for its culture and refined social life, and the influence of such surroundings were never forgotten, and in every word and act he was a gentleman without x fear and without reproach. He was of truly noble ancestry, as his ancestors on both sides of the family figured in the Revolutionary War. the remembrance of which helped to, nerve his heart and strengthen his arm in the supreme hour that tried men's souls and covered with udyirig i honor the deeds of the soldiers of 4 the South. Colonel Mcintosh was born in 1S85 I and was nearly eighty years old at the time of his death, but his health; was so perfect and his form so erect i that he looked a great de.il younger, ( than he really was, and his sudden death was a painful surprise to his many friends both here and in the home of his adoption in Maryland. 8 He was graduated from the South B Carolina College several years before Wthe war, an$ was admitted to the W bari and settled in Darlington for the J* practice of law. He was just beginning to -acquire a fine practice when tax. State seceded and there was a call for her young men to defend her honor. About a year before this a military company was organized by the late /" Mati/iI iTTorlarr an Vi n r> r" cr-ro fllioto V/V1U1IC4 |MOX igj, UU UVUVA Qi WUV.V.W j of the Citadel, and while Colonel Mcintosh had iiot at that time received any military training' he was held in such high esteem that he was elected L first leutenant of the new organization and it is almost needless to say that the choice was -a very happy one, < as after events proved. The Guards and the Richland Rifles were the first two companies ordered out from the interior, havV ing already offered their services; and on January 3, 1861, they went to Charleston. After remaining there for several months a call was made for ( volunteers to go to fVirginia. A part . of the Guards responded. They had had no time to arrange their busi- ( ns38 affairs, and went there under the command of Lieutenant Mcln* tosh. When the time for their enlistment ?six months?had expired, Lieutenant Mcintosh returned home and immediately organized a company, the Pee Dee Rifles, of which he was made 1 captain. Some time after going to 1 Virginia, the command was changed 1 to an artillery campany, and thereafter was known as the Pee Dea ( Light Artillery and as such made a record to which their country can point with pride. Captain Mcintosh was promoted to the rank of major, then lieutenant eolonel, and finally made a full colo nel, and his brilliant* record as an officer has already been referred to. He was one of four brothers who were in the army, all noted for their courage. Only one of them, Dr. James Mcintosh, now survives. Ons sister also survives Colonel Mcintosh, Mrs. Bell, of Tennessee, as do f-* several nephews and nieces, in this section and in Newberry. t.Ai short time after the war, Colonel Mcintosh married M!ss Virginia Pegram, of Richmond, and returned to Darlington, resuming the practice of law. He remained here only a year or two, finding that his wife's health, accustomed to the more bracing climate of Virginia, was failing. He was compelled, reluctantly, to oast Oais lot elsewhere. He selected Towson, the county seat of Baltimore County, for his residence, and practiced his profession both there and in the city. It is almost needless to say that he succeeded, and that he stood high in the estimation of all, both -as an attorney and as a gentleman. JLTr, obmr t.hp hish esteem in which Colonel Mcintosh was held, it is only necessary to mention that he enJoyed the friendship and confidence two of tie greatest men to whom this country has ever given birth?'
