Silver Spoons
Continued from page ID

building presently occupied BY
Virginia Electric and Power
Company.
DR.. Beckham calculated that
the spoon maker was Dr.. Thack-
ston's father, Capt. c h a r | e S
Thackston. The memory of the
past is slipping by fast DR..
Beckham says. but my recol-
lection has always been that
DR.. Thackston's father was a
silversmith. In that case, it
could easily have been he who
made the spoons.
Dr.. Thackston is reputed to
have gained technical skills and
deXterity under the tutelage Of
his father. Could it have been
this late 18th Century skilled
tradesman, Capt. Charle S
Thackston, who impaired t h e
skills and enthusiasms which
were to carry his son to pro-
fessional and civic preemi-
hence? Possibly SO, the truth
may be lost in the past.
DR.. William w. H. Thackston,
son of silversmith. went on to
become a distinguished dental
surgeon after being the fir t
American graduate in a full
length dental course. He was a
founder of the Virginia Society
of Surgeon Dentists, organizer
and six times president of the
Virginia State Dental Associa
ton. He won memberships in
the Southern and American Den
tai Associations, and was recog-
nized the nation over as dis
tinguished member and trail
blazer of the profession.
Distinguished Career
DR.. Thackston was mayor Of
Farmville in 1880, and a
perusal of Herbert c. Brad
shaw's History of Prince Ed
ward County," reveals the
prominence of DR.. Thackston in
every municipal and civic eff
fort and advance of his time.
The venerable figure Of long
ago Farmville is best remem-
bered though for his personal
characteristics and attributes
tall and handsome in figure,
striking in presence and bear
ing immaculate in person and
dress, graceful and eloquent in
expression.
That his reputation, accom-
plishments and character re-
main a proud tradition among
the folks here old enough to re-
member is quickly understood
after a talk with a person like
our Herald caller. Mr.. Booker.
You are doing, in their opinion,
a favor Tor neWspaperman
when you put him in the way Of
a story involving the name Of
Thackston even without sup
porting facts to help him.
And when we read of this dis
tinguished period and parsonage
o. our Farmville rast. we quite
agree with Mr.. Booker. In our
minds eye we can see Capt.
Charles Thackston in his silver
smith shop, with eager. bright
eyed yOungster at his side. Per
haps it was these very spoons
which were turned out in this
period Of Patterson association
which was to produce such a
preeminent career.
There were the spoons, t h e
Thackston trademark and Mr..
Bookers belief that they con-
stituted a good story to give
Credence to such nominations!

boards OF supervisors may be re-
solved as result Of the action
this week. The court action stems
from the closing of Prince Ed
ward schools since the 50
session in the face of an integra-
ton order from the district
courts. Judge Lewis based his de-
cision on new action and evidence
since the last order.
Judge Lewis ruling will pro-
vide opportunity for the defen-

complaint. Attorneys here said
they do not know how much time
they will be permitted until they
