Thomas was a bachelor, very genial and fond of the ladies. He merchandised in Hamburg SC, until the close of the Civil War, then at Phoenix SC. When 23 years of age he united with the Christian Baptist Church of Augusta GA and remained a communicant until his death.
In the war he was in the infantry service, being a member of the 24th Reg S C Volunteers. Wherever he was, at home or abroad, he was of the same temperament- social and obliging in his disposition, liberal in his views, and benevelent in deeds. He was remarkably attentive to his business, and energetic in whatever he undertook. If business he devoted himself entirely to business, if social or other enjoyments, he entered for the time, wholly into the subject at hand.
The community where he resided will long remember him with respect and kind feelings.
He was the only remaining male member of his immediate family in the State - the others having died or moved away. He had been afflicted for a long time and was kindly cared for by his sister, Mrs. Williams and Mr. H. C. Moseley, of Phoenix. He had gone to Abbeville on buisness in his usual health, and was stricken down suddenly in the street. He lingered five days, and quietly passed away.
On the next day his remains were brought through the county in a hearse to Damascus Church, In Edgefield Dist. He was buried in a plot of his own selection, in the church cemetery.
