LEXINGTON c. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 90 1918
John J. Fox Expires.

Jno. J. Fox, ex Confederate soldier,
public spirited citizen and Christian
gentleman, died at his home in Lexing-
ton at 10 o'clock last night, following
a long and painful illness, the cause Of
his death being due to arterial degen-
Grafton and associated cardiac com
plications. He was the youngest son
of the late John J. Fox, one OF the
most popular meu of his time, he hav-
ing been State senator and having
held practically every office in Lexing-
ton county. At the beginning of the
War between the sections young John
Fox entered the service of his State,
cining Company K, Filth South Car
olina cavalry under Capt. Henry T.
Caughman. No braver soldier ever
carried musket than John }. +, Y,
his comrades say, and he served with
distinction until the close Of strife.
At the close CT the war he returned to
Lexington, and in 1872 he married 10
Miss Ella V. Myers, OF Sumter, WHO,
with three sons and daughter, survive.
One daughter died i few years ago.
The living children are: Alfred j. Fox,
cashier of The Home National Bank
of Lexington; James H. and John 5.
Fox, and Mrs. James J. Wingard, all
of Lexington. Mr.. Fox was 68 years
of age. For thirty-six years Mr.. Fox
had be en- steward in the Lexington
Methodist church, and had been super
intendent of the Methodist Sunday
School for 80 consecutive years. e Cen
tie and kind in manner, he endeared
himself to every man, woman and
child in Lexington. His social, pollt-
ical and religious life, were of the
highest, and his work for the. .scommon
good will live for generations to come.
The services were conducted this
afternoon at his residence and the
burial will take place at Batesburg to
morrow morning at 10:30 O'Clock. The
Rev. J. E. Rushton, Of Lexington, late
pastor of the deceased, will perform
the last sad rites.

County Fair Best Ever.

The County Fair which is being held
here this week is the best eyer pulled
off in the history of the association.
Many praisworthy attractions besides
the fair are in evld5nce and the vari ous
exhibits are far better than was ex-
pected by the officers. A few acci-
dents have occurred since the fair
started. A negro was hurt in the
street by horse this morning. Mr.
Cromer Oswald ran into horse at the
fair ground which resulted in serious
injury to the animal. The largest
crowd ever seen on the ground were
here today.
