Gift From Virginia The life Dr. Joynes was one of the rarest gifts of Virginia to South Carolina, although the Influence or Ms brilliant scholarship and zeal for tbe dissemination of learning were not restricted to the confines of the Palmetto State. Only a rew years on n onf tri'hn + a Hio j mond Times-Dispatch characterized j i this -"grand old man" as "one of the j greatest living Virginians." He was born in Accomac countv : on the eastern shore of Virginia . toarch 2, 1834, "having thus celebrat ' ed his 83rd birthday only a 'ew ! months ago. He was of a distinguish ' ed ancestral strain. His grandfath er was Maj. Levin Joynes of the Con 1 tinental army, whose ancestors were j among; the English settlers of the Old Dominion. His father was Thomas R. ! Joynes and Anna Bell (Satchell) Joynes. to whom 13 children were j born. Dr. Joynes was the youngest of these and is the last or tlie family. In 1859 while a member of the fac ulty of William and Mary college in i\T-n Tlr Tnvnoc nrac vy iiiicmisuu,. g, i r i married to Miss Eliza Waller Vest, ' Mrs. Joynes died June 11, 1914. Studied in Germany. After having received his primary, training in the Old Field scTiool ol j I Virginia, of which he wrote soj : charminlgly, Dr. Joynes studied in !+v?q fomrmc Prm/vird aftartemv. r.ear! j Fredericksburg. He entered the; University of Virginia in 7850 and! received the bachelor of arts degree J from the institution in 1852. The following year the master of arts de gree was conferred by the same in-! stitution. For three years he serve-?, as a member of the faculty of his! i alma mater, his duties being those of I ! assistant of ancient languages. From! j 1856 to 1858 he was a student at the | I University of Berlin, where he studi-i | ed under such celebrated German i scholars as Hoecnn, mupi, r>oppanu Benary. A fe^ years later he pub lished in The Magnolia Weekly a series of letters entitled "Recollec tions of Student IJfe in Germany." which were distinctly illuminating for their charm of style, brilliancy 01 humor and keen observation and analysis of German life and manners. It was while a student In Berlin tbat he was made a member of the faculty of William and Mary college. His ofcair was that of Q-eruax a*d Greek. These subjects were taugnt until the' school was closed by tlie exigencies rji tiie War between the Sections.! He then entered the Confederate States war department at Richmond i and labord industriously through the years of 1SC1 to 18G4 for the cause he loved. In 186(1 he was elected to the chair of modern languages or Washington college, now Washington ami Lee university, where ne served unaer tne auiumisn unun ui vjcia. nuu ert E. Lee. On the Lee centennial an niversary in 1907 he said: "Xear the end of a long service in more than one Southern college of high rank I look back upon the years spent in Lexington with Gen. Lee as my 'golden age,' the privileges of which I now, alas too late, most keen ly feel that T did not then sufficiently appreciate." tttv lnovincr Waehinstrin and Lee university Dr. Jovnop was associated with Vanderbilt university, wnere he helped to organize and became a member of the first racuity. Here he taught English and modern lan guages three ' years. Tne next four years were given to this chair in the University of East Tennessee, later to be recognized as the University of Tennessee; ana 111 una uauoiuxjuua tion Dr. Joynes performed a distin guished service. When the question of transforming the school into a State institution was being strenu ously agitated and bitterly contended, Dr. Joynes was selected to represent the institution before the Tennessee general assembly and was a potent factor in getting favoi ble consider ation by the assemblymen. <C??es to Carolina. It was a direct sequence or his worK in Tennessee that Dr. Joynes was la ter enlisted for the South Carolina field. While in Tennessee Dr. Joynes was intimately associated with Dr. Thomas Sears, the first agent of the Peabody board. In 1880 the first teacl ere* institute to > be held in S?uth Carolina under the reconstructed State government was held in Spartan burg, and npou recommendation 01 Dr. Sears, Dr. Joynes was invited tc direct this institute. The following ! year a similar institute was given ir I Greenville. Hugh S.

He < was imme diately thereafter elected profet-^soi emeritus of modern languages anc continued to live on the university campus several years. One of tL. acts in relation to the uurverslty was the donation of his modern languag* UDrary or more man i.ouu voxumes tv the university library. He was a mem ber of the first board of school trus tees o? Columbia and was activc ir founding and organizing the citj schools in 18S3. Today a neautifu oil portrait of Dr. Joynes hangs or the walls of the McMaster school. Friend to Teachers. Dr. Joynes was no less interested In the teacher than the pupil. When ever possible he appeared at teachers institutes and he was one amon^ the first members of the State Teach ers' association. He was most en thusiastic in his efforts to assist lr the organization of the State Norma! and Industrial College for -Women lr Rock Hill, which institution had Its infant years in Columbia and on th( board of trustees of which Dr. Joyne; served a number of years. Many o! the pamphlets which flowed from hfc I generous pen dealt with principles ol i teaching, particularly those related to the teaching of the mother tongue He made an exhaustive study of the industrial education of women ii Germany.
