Lucas of Kershaw county. Having been graduated from the Citadel in 1853, he immediately entered upon a course of studies at the Charleston Medical college, from which institu tion he was graduated a few years later. From then until the opening of the War Between the! Sections he practiced his profession in Kershaw county. On entering the Confederate army, he was made captain of a company in the Seventh South Carolina battalion, under Col. P. H. Nelson. After the death of Col. Nelson he served under Col. James II. Rion. Dr. Lucas lost an arm in the battle of Cold Harbor. When the war was brought to a close Dr. Lucas turned again to the practice of medicine, but transferred to Hartsville. Ten years ago he retired because of advancing years. Since that time his interests have been confined largely to fanning, to which he gave much attention. Dr. T. E. Lucas, accompnied by his son, W. A. Lucas and Messrs D. D. Tiller and Jarnes W. Griggs attended the funeral. Find the ButtonMr. U.
