The death of Dr. E D Scott was a shock to the community, although he has been critically ill for some months. The race felt proud of him because he demonstrated what it was possible for a young man to accomplish unaided, with a purpose in life, and sufficient determination, energy and pluck to carry out that purpose.
He educated himself at the best schools in the country, the Boston Latin School and Harvard. He was for several years professor of modern languages at the Normal and Collegiate Institute, Petersburg, Virginia. In 1882 he entered the medical school at Harvard, graduating in 1885. The doctor immediately began the practice of medicine and in a year or so had a practice second to none of our physicians.
He was so universally kind that he won the admiration and respect of all with whom he came in contact. In 1883 he married Aaronella Molyneaux Hewlett, a daughter of the late Professor A. Molyneaux Hewlett, of Harvard Univeristy.
The doctor is survived by a widow and two children, Miss Marion T. Scott and Paul Scott. He will be remembered as a true representative man who left an impress for good.
