James Bandy (42669827)
Death of James Bandy.
On Monday evening, at about seven
o'clock, Mr. James Bandy, sheriff of Taze-
well county, died at the Central Hotel. He
had been in precarious health for more
than a year. It will be remembered that
on Christmas Eve, 1901, he was stricken
with paralysis at Pounding Mill, and for
six months after that time was helplessly
ill at his home in Maxwell's Valley. Then
he became sufficiently restored to health
to occasionally come to town and give
some attention to his business matters.
On Tuesday, the 16th ult., he came to town,
that being court day. It was a very in-
clement day and on his arrival he was help-
ed to a seat near the stove in the hotel by
several friends, the writer among the num-
ber. After sitting there about half an
hour, Mr. Surface discovered that he was
very sick and carried him to a room. Dr.
Crockett was called in and it was found
that he had been again attacked with
paralysis. From that time he gradually
grew worse until the end came on Monday
evening.
Mr. Bandy was one of the most popular
men who has ever lived in Tazewell county.
He was sixty-six years old at the time
of his death, and for the past twenty-four
years had been sheriff or deputy sheriff of
the county. He came from the people,
was of the people, and was a natural
leader among men. In 1885 he was elec-
ted to represent Tazewell county in the
House of Delegates, and made his con-
stituents a faithful and capable representa-
tive.
Mr. Bandy was twice married. His
first wife was a Miss Christian, by whom
he has two sons and one daughter sur-
viving. His second wife was a Miss Whitt.
He is survived by her and their three
daughters, Misses Mollie, Lou and Nannie.
His wife and three daughters were with
him when he died.
The deceased was a man of many ex-
cellent qualities. He was a loyal friend
and a fearless but honorable foe. His
death will give profound regret to the peo-
ple of Tazewell county.
The remains were taken to his home in
Maxwell's Valley on Tuesday and were
buried yesterday.
