His life was not an easy one, for

his positive and Eurposeful character
and his touch with great things
brought him into sharp conflicts with
important forces. In the midst of
them all he bore himself with a cOur-
! age and virility which commanded
universal respect and enabled him to

beloved. He married in 1869 Miss
Julia M. Johnston, daughter of Col.
William Johnston, of Charlotte, n. c.,
!. who was president of the Charlotte,
Columbia and Augusta Railroad Com
pany. With her as his helpmate he
built up an exceptionally happy and
beautiful home life, which he distin-
guished by the most cordial and
liberal hospitality.
He was a devoted husband and
father and followed his children, even
after they were grown, with undimin-

He took deep interest in the

Although himself deprived of the

paid a high tribute to the memory of
the late Col. A. B. Andrews, first
vice-president and for many years a
home in Raleigh, N. c., on April II,
1915, in the following resolutions:
I'm Memoriam, Alexander Boyd
Andrews.
alexander Boyd Andrews was born
in Franklin county, North Carolina,
on the Odd day of July, 1S41. He
rendered his services to the Confed-
eracy in April, 1861, and in June
of that year, before he was 20 years
of age, was made second lieutenant
IN Company Z of the First regiment
Of North Carolina cavalry, Confed-
crate States Army. He served with
distinguished gallantry until, in Sep
TENDER, 1863, he was shot through
the chest and lung by the fragment Of
a shell at Jacks Shop, near Gordons-
vile, Va. After recovering from this
serious wound he found, when peace
trial life of the South PROSTATE as
a result of war and the people among
whom he lived confronted with the
task of rebuilding their social, and
of creating an industrial, system on
new lines. He became a factor of
prime Importance in this creative and
constructive work. Realizing the ne
cessity for transportation in any plan
of reorganization and reconstruction,
he entered railroad life. His first
service was with the Raleigh and Gas
ton and with the Raleigh and Au-
gusta railroads, and as their superin-
tendent for eight years he was the
principal factor in their rehabilitation
after the ravages of war.
With the R. and D.
"His efficiency in this work brought
him an offer of promotion from the
Richmond and Danville Railroad Com
pany, and in 1875 he became super
intendent Of its North Carolina di-
vision. He remained with this and
other predecessors of Southern Rail-
way Company and with the South
ern itself uninterruptedly until his
death, period of forty years. Be-
ginning with the office of superin-
tendent, he worked his way up
through various intermediate grades
until he became first vice president
and director Of this company, which
position he held at the time of his
death and had held for many years.
"His active railroad work had thus
extended over a period little short of
half a century.
During that time the principal
construction and organization work
of the railroads of the South has been
done, and the industrial life of the
South itself has been recognized and
rebuilt. In this accomplishment Col
onel Andrews was vital force. Pos
sessing strong and dominating per-
sonality, virile and commanding in
character and intellect, he threw him
self into his great work with ire
sistible will and purpose. His
achievements, which were many,
richly entitle him to a place among
the great constructive forces of his
State and section.

among these achievements was
the completion Of the Western North
