Page #2 THOMAS GILLILAND BOGGS

The subject of this sketch, Thomas Gilliland Boggs , was born inYork District, now York County, S. C., February 15, 1795. His father'sname was Joseph Boggs. His mother's maiden name was Rennick. Hisfather died when Thomas G. was a little child. His mother with thefamily moved to Pendleton District into a section, now embraced byPickens County, when Thomas G. was about six years of age. Not longafter this removal, the mother was married again to Mr. DavidHamilton. At an early age Thomas G. was sent to one of the bestschools in that part of the country. By diligence and application, hesoon became one of the best English scholars of his day and time. Heearly imbibed a love of study and investigation of all subjects ofcommon interest to the people. This characterized him, during a longand useful life. He was a strong advocate of the cause of education.When a young man he taught school for some time in the neighborhood ofCarmel Church. Doubtless his efforts as a teacher helped to lay thefoundation of that educational enterprise that had such an elevatinginfluence on the community of Slabtown, and which in later years wasso successfully developed and conducted by the late John LelandKennedy. He made a profession of faith in Jesus Christ in the year1815, and united with the Carmel Church when he was in his twentiethyear. He was married to Miss Eleanor Hamilton, sister of the late Col.David K. Hamilton, March 17, 1818. He was ordained and inn stalledRuling Elder in the Carmel Church in September of the year 1831. Hedied May ll, 1889, on the bosom of the family of his son, in thehouse, which had been his earthly home for many years, in the littletown of Liberty, S. C. For seventy-four years he was a consistent andexemplary communicant of Christ's Church on the earth. For nearlysixty years he was an officer in the house of God. On the day of hisdeath he was ninety-four years, two months and twenty-six days old.But few ever reach his age. Few men have ever been permitted to occupythe position of witness bearers, to the truth, as it is in Jesus, solong as was the lot of Thomas G. Boggs. Soon after his marriage hebecame a citizen of Pickens County, and purchased a home about fourmiles north of Carmel Church, where he lived till the day of hisdeath. It is now the home of his son J. Addison Boggs and family. ThisBoggs home is now within the corporate limits of the town of Liberty,which within the past few years has grown up around a station on theAir Line Railway. This place might appropriately be called Boggsville,as some one of the Boggs family, if not bearing the name, yet of thekindred, is identified with almost everything, both of the church andstate, in the town and surrounding community. The Boggs home whereThomas G. and his wife lived together for nearly seventy years (shepreceded him to the grave about three years) where they brought up andtrained, not only for time, but for eternity, six sons and threedaughters, all of whom were consecrated to the Lord, is indeed ahallowed place. The Godly life of the united head of the family, madeit a sacred fountain, whence have issued streams that have borne withthem refreshing and sanctifying influences wherever the sons anddaughters have gone and lived. ~Forever a lineal descendant of ThomasG. and Eleanor Boggs is found, whether in the person of child or grandand great-grand child, there is found a faithful advocate of theChristian faith. Two of the sons are Presbyterian ministers, engagedactively in the work of the church, one, D. C. Boggs, a pastor inArkansas, the other, G. W. Boggs, an evangelist in one of thePresbyteries of Tennessee. The other two living sons are Ruling eldersin their respective congregations, one in the Liberty Church inPickens County, the other in the Slabtown Church in Anderson County, S.C. One son, a Colonel in the Confederate service during the latewar, the Father of Rev. W. L Boggs, of Liberty Hill, S.C., died duringthe war. The youngest son, one of the most gifted and promising youngmen we have ever known, died soon after he had been elected to aprofessorship in the University of Alabama. His daughters areoccupying responsible and useful positions at the head of Christianhouseholds. Could we trace the influences whose starting point was theconsecrated household of which Thomas G. Boggs was the head, we wouldbe amazed to see how far-reaching and widely extended one Godly lifebecomes. The good thus started by the work of one devoted Christiannever dies. It goes on reaching living hearts and making lastingimpressions for good when he has long been in the grave. "His works dofollow him." " He being dead continues to speak." Asa citizen he was ever considerate of his country's welfare. Heregarded obedience to the civil law as a duty sanctioned not only bythe penalties affixed by human legislation, but as enforced by divineauthority. To be a good, peaceable, industrious citizen, seeking hisneighbor's welfare in the advancement of the good of the wholecommunity was to him, not merely the State's demand, but a divinerequirement. Duty to country was to him a duty he owed to God. Did allmen live and act as he did in all the relations of life., few menwould seek to live by the law. It would be a starving business. Werethe citizenship of our country modeled after that of Thomas G. Boggswe would seldom hear of a case tried in court. We would have butlittle work for Judge and Jury. His was a law-abiding nature, whichgrew stronger with age, and made him the good, model citizen that hewas. He never shrank from any post of duty assigned him. When thetocsin of war was sounded in the land and the government called forbrave men to do battle in the cause of~ country, h6 ~ð among the flr6tt9 obey the call. He served as a soldier in the war of 1812. Thewriter has not the data sufficient to make a definite statement withregard to this service.
As a Christian, the doctrines of the gospel were the rulingprinciples of his long life. He made no demonstration of his religionin work but he lived the truth. With him religion was not a professiononly, but a living reality, giving shape and direction to the conductof his life. No one could Take knowledge of his daily walk andconversation, without being impressed with the conviction that he wasa genuine disciple of the Lord Jesus. He made no ostentation of hisreligious sentiments and feelings, but was always ready to express hisconvictions of truth and duty. He made no profession of having madegreat attainment in the way of holy living. In his own views ofhimself he was humble and in expression of his own spiritual conditionhe never thought or said more of himself than a poor, unworthy sinnersaved by grace, yet in the esteem of the writer and of those who knewhim well, few professors of religion have ever reached a higher degreeof sanctification than it was his privilege to enjoy. When he lookedat self he saw nothing but imperfection, but Christ and Hisrighteousness was all the perfection he claimed. In Christ as aChristian he was complete. This was in evidence, not as by some in ourday, who claim for themselves attainments in the divine life which arenot consistent neither with the truth of scripture, nor with theirdaily conduct, but his religion was seen in the very spirit andbearing of the

AS a father and husband, he was indeed a model. In the sixtyseven years of his married life., not a harsh nor unkind word to hiswife was ever known to fall from his lips. It is well known by hisfriends and neighbors how great was his domestic happiness, He was atrue, faithful and affectionate father. The ruling principles of hishousehold were the precepts of the gospel. What a privilege, what ablessing to be the children of such a father. What a blessing to havebeen associated with such a an in this life. ~at a blessing to himselfwas the faith in which he lived and died. The name of Thomas G. Boggsis to us who knew him, the synonym of a truly righteous man. "Let medie the death of the righteous, and let my last be like his."

THOMAS H. BOGGS

Departed this life on the 6th of July 1862, at his lateresidence, in Pickens County, S. C., Lieutenant-Colonel ThomasHamilton Boggs of the 2nd. Regiment of Rifles, S. C.V. The deceasedwas born on the 6th of May, 1823. In early life he became a followerof Christ and ever gloried in His cross and adorned its doctrines by aGodly life. Moral courage was his ennobling characteristic. Neithercensure or applause from men ever lured him from the path ofrectitude. For many years he nobly discharged the duties ofMagistrate. For years he performed with energy and fidelity, theoffice of deacon in Carmel Church. Though blessed with a large anddependent family, yet when he saw his services were needed to driveback the invading foe of his State and country, he raised a companywith which he went into service on the coast of S.C., near Charleston.The multiplied number of companies of the first Regiment of Rifles ofS. C. V. rendered it necessary to organize a third Battalion of whichhe was chosen Major. This soon became a regiment, under the command ofCol. J. V. Moore and himself as Lieutenant-Colonel. He wasindefatigable in the performance of his arduous duties while on thecoast of S. C., which developed on his being transferred with hiscommand to Virginia. He was permitted to return to his family, butsoon sank under the malignant fever, a sacrifice on the altar of hiscountry, leaving a wife and eight children to mourn their irreparableloss, but doubtless infinite and eternal gain is his in the abode ofthe blessed. He was a good and useful man; cut down in the midst ofhis days and usefulness. The church, the State, and especially thecommunity in which providence had cast his lot, all feel most deeplythe loss sustained. But his aged parents, kindred and friends find inthat gospel which they have embraced, a sovereign balm for theirwounded hearts. They have learned the sublime, the glorious truth,that the Lord God omnipotent reigned, ever unerring in theadministration of his kingdom, that ruled over all. "The hairs of ourhead are numbered." "Not a sparrow falleth to the ground without ourHeavenly Father's notice." "Fear not, ye are of more value than manysparrows."

MRS. ELEANOR BOGGS
Mrs. Eleanor Boggs, wife of Mr. Thomas G. Boggs, died at herresidence in the town of Liberty, S. C. August 21, 1885, in the ninetyfirst year of her age. She was the daughter of Thomas and AnnHamilton. Her mother's maiden name was Ann Kennedy. Her name is identified with the history of the struggle for independence on the part of the American colonies in the Carolinas. Though a modest, Christian lady, such was her fidelity to the cause of her country, that she performed deeds of danger and daring that evinced her patriotism second to none who fought and bled in the cause of civil liberty. She, though a fe- male, did fight and bleed. She carried a scar to her dying hour, re- ceived when bravely defending her home against a band of Tories. When they attempted to burn her father's house, she stood on the ground ex- tinguishing the fire, and hurling burning pieces defiantly in thefaces of the enemy, and when one of the Tories, whom she had baffled in his attempts to destroy the dwelling, had levelled his musket on her, and was about to fire his commanding officer ordered him to desist, say- ing,that "his men should never shoot such a noble and brave lady". TheTories then retreated, virtually conquered by one brave-hearted woman.
If this were the proper place, many instances might be givenof her doings in the days of the American revolution, which gave herthe character of a heroine indeed. On one occasion when the countrywas teeming with the enemy, it became necessary to convey someimportant intelligence to the American camp in the distance. There wasno way to reach this point but through forests and swamps, thick withthe enemy. She volunteered to carry the important intelligence. Sheplaced the message in her stocking on her foot, and mounting a triedand trusty steed, she started for General Morgan's headquarters. Alone woman, riding by day and night over hill and vale, taking oftencircuitous and hidden paths, fearlessly dashing into the unknowndepths of swollen streams, resolutely determined on the one thing ofsafely carrying the message to the American Commander~. Providencefavored her, as it always does the truly brave. It was her unwaveringtrust in the God of right that gave her courage in the trying hour.She passed through the lines unscathed and unhurt. The intelligenceconveyed by her, led to important results, and doubtless was a link inthe chain of successes in the Carolinas which helped to achieve ourindependence.
We write this of the mother because we believe the virtues ofthe daughter are mainly rooted in the character of her from whom shesprang. The whole history of the long life of Mrs. Boggs, demonstratesthat she was a daughter worthy of so noble a mother. Miss EleanorHamilton was married to Mr. Thomas G. Boggs, (brother of the late Rev.George Boggs, missionary to Bombay) on March 17, 1818. The Rev. JamesHillhouse was the officiating minister on the occasion of themarriage. The length of this union was sixty-seven years, five monthsand four days. It was as happy as it was long. Never was there a crossor unkind word spoken, the one to the other in all that time. It maytruly be said she did her husband "good, and not evil all the days ofher life. Her husband is known in the gates where he sitteth among theelders of the land. Strength and honor are her clothing, and she shallrejoice in time to come. She opened her mouth with wisdom, and hertongue was the law of kindness. She looked well to the ways of herhousehold, and did not eat the bread of idleness. Her children ariseup and call her blesses; her husband also, and he praised her." Thewriter has never known a human pair that was more deservedly fitted tobe a model of what man and wife should be to each other.
What a blessing is a Christian household with such a unitedhead. A blessing not only to the immediate family, but to otherhouseholds who live within the sphere of their influence. Such was theChristain demeanor of the wife and husband in all the domesticaffairs, that one could not be a guest in the Boggs homestead withoutfeeling that he was in a consecrated place.
Mrs. Boggs was the mother of six sons and three daughters, andof the descendants of these there can be counted fifty-fivegrand-children and sixty-three great grandchildren, all number onehundred twenty seven. These all belong to the great Presbyterianfamily, and doubtless, the multiplication of the offspring ingenerations to come will be a propagation of the ancestral faith. Seehow the stream increases and widens as it descends, carrying with itthe same characteristic waters that issued from the fountain head. Ofthe six sons of Mrs. Boggs, four are living; two of them highlyesteemed and much beloved ministers in the Presbyterian Church. One apastor of College Hill Church, Mississippi, the other a pastor atBentonville, Arkansas. Two others, ruling elders -- one in the "oldmother" church of the Boggs family (Carmel). Of this church, Mrs.Boggs was a member for about three-fourths of a century. The other, aruling elder in the Liberty Church, S. C., of which the parentsrecently became members by transfer from Carmel. One son died while inthe service of his country in the confederate war. He was a colonel incommand of a South Carolina regiment. The youngest son died soon afterhis election to a professor's chair in the University of Alabama. Ofthe three daughters, one is living in Arkansas, one in the Nazarethcongregation, Spartanburg, the other in the town of Liberty, S. C. Allare heads of Presbyterian families. To write of all these children andtell what they are doing and how they are living -- with theirhousehold consecrated to the service of Christ, is the highesteulogies we could pronounce on the Christian character of the deceasedmother.

She was indeed a mother in Israel. Such was her consistentChristian~ character, and so well known in the country around, thatthe name of Mrs. Eleanor Boggs is the synonym of all that is true,beautiful, and good in a wife and mother, and Christian, friend andneighbor. She was blessed with strong intellectual powers, but thatwhich made her a tower of moral and religious strength was her strong,unwavering faith in the promise of God. She took God as His wordreveals Him, and the conduct of her life was shaped accordingly. Herreligion was not a mere profession, but it was a possession of whichshe had a conscious experience. Religion was not to her an objectivecreed, to which she assented, but a subjective reality, consequentlyit was a part and parcel of her daily life, enabling her to say, whileconscious that the earthly tabernacle was giving away under the stressand weight of years, "K know if this earthly house be dissolved, Ihave a building of God; a house not made with hands, eternal in theHeavens." She was blessed in life, blessed in death, blessed because acovenant God in whom she trusted, was her satisfying portion.

WILLIAM LEIAND BOGGS

William Leland Boggs was born in Pickens County,.S.C., May14, 1833. He finished his course on earth August 14, 1863 His age wasthirty years and three months. He was the eighth of nine children, andthe sixth brother. He had a pious ancestry, both on this father's andmother's side. His grandfather, Thomas Hamilton, was ruling Elder inCarmel Church, more than fifty years, when the grandson was born andin which church he was baptized. "He was an Israelite, indeed, in whomwas no guile." His father, who died in May, 1889, was an Elder in thesame church for more than sixty years. Hie parents with their ninechildren, continued an unbroken family until the 6th of June, 1862,when Thomas H. Boggs died of disease contracted in the army. The Lordin His great mercy, kept them an unbroken family for forty-four years,a very unusual thing. His parents not only lived to see all of theirchildren grown, but to have the unspeakable satisfaction of seeing allof them consistent members of the Presbyterian Church for many years.before they were called away. These parents trained their large familyin comfort, but not in affluence; without earthly wealth, but in theluxury of contentment. As soon as their sons were large enough, theirservices were indispensable in the cultivation of the farm. In thisway they all learned to work, and were all preserved from the rock onwhich the hopes of so many parents are wrecked. They were saved fromidleness, which brings in its train, vice, want and misery. Thus theyall acquired healthy and robust constitutions. This necessity forlabor caused considerable delay in the course of their education, butthis delay was counterbalanced by their ability to study and labor inafter-life. Having so many children to educate, the parents wereunable to give every one of them an extended course, so they were ofnecessity thrown in a great degree upon their own resources.
Leland was brought up as all the children were, "in thenurture and admonition of the Lord." Few parents were ever moreassiduous in the training of their children. Family prayer was neverput aside. This exercise was sometimes attended by a few remarks fromthe father, on the passage read, in which he made a direct andpersonal appeal to his children. Catechetical exercises were neveromitted because there were visitors present who paid no attention tosuch things. After the older children had gone through the shortercatechism, it was the invariable rule to recite the whole of it everySabbath evening, the younger children reciting from it as far as theyknew. The parents often took it by turns in asking the questions, andeither of them could go through the catechism without a book.
Leland showed great fondness for, and aptness in committingthis admirable summary of doctrine to memory. He could read wellbefore he was five years of age. "From a child he knew the scriptures,which were able to make him wise unto salvation through Christ Jesus."With such a training, we may with unfeigned thankfulness to ourcovenant keeping God, "call to remembrance the unfeigned faith thatwas in him which dwelt first in his grand-mother, in his own mother,and we are persuaded in him also."
He was prepared for college under the instruction of thatfaithful and valued servant of God, Rev. John L. Kennedy. He enteredOglethorpe University in 1852 and graduated in 1854wlth the highesthonors of his class. Early in the year 1853 he made public professionof religion and Joined the Presbyterian Church in Millegeville, Ga.,being then about twenty years of age. If we may Judge from his life,he was probably a Christian years before. In the year 1855 he taughtschool in Conecuh County, Alabama. During the next two years he was incharge of the primary department of Oglethorpe University. During thistime he was very much exercised as to whether he ought to enter thegospel ministry. His extreme diffidence stood in the way. In themeantime he made arrangements to spend some years in the GeEnanUniversities. Being unable to command the funds he had laid up forthis purpose, he was induced by some of his friends to spend thewinter of 1858 in the Theological Seminary at Columbia, S. C. Hisfriends hoped that it might result in his entering the gospelministry, though he never avowed any such purpose.

He sailed for Europe in May, 18~9, and having remained twoyears in the GeEnan Universities. the excited state of the countryhastened his return. He landed in New York in 1861. During his stay inEurope he wrote many interesting letters which were published in theSouthern Presbyterian and Pickens Courier. His arrival in New Yorkhappened Just after the first battle of Manassas. He was suspected ofbeing a bearer of dispatches to President Davis. Consequently wasarrested and brought before the police and searched. Finding nothingthat was contraband he was released. The Mayor of New York was verykind in helping him on his way to his beloved South. He was ~requiredto take a circuitous route through New York, Pennsylvania, Louisvilleand Nashville After his return he taught a year in Columbia, S. C. In1863 he was called to fill the chair of chemistry and geology in theUniversity of Alabama. Early in August 1864, while spending a few dayswith some relatives in Summerfield, Ala., he was taken sick and died,after a few days of great suffering. His sickness assumed an alarmingfrom the beginning. In three or four days it was evident he must die.When brought to the knowledge of this startling fact, he was somewhatdisturbed. If it was the Lord's will he would have preferred to livelonger, that he might be useful in glorifying God and gaining anhonorable distinction in the profession he had chosen. For twelve orfifteen years he had been diligently engaged in preparing himself forusefulness, and now that he was well furnished, both in the way ofnatural endowments and a thorough training, all set off and adorned bythe grace of God, he desired to live to be useful to his country,which he dearly loved. There was also a strong desire to do somethingfor that precious Saviour, who had done so much for him. He loved theChurch of God, and rejoiced in her prosperity, and mourned in heradversity.

It does appear to us poor short-sighted creatures, that havingput on his armour and sharpened his sword, he should have had time andopportunity to have tried its temper upon the enemies of the Lord;that he should have lived and battled for Christ and his crown. "ButGod's I! thoughts are not as our thoughts, neither are His ways as our ways.These desires to live and be useful, when he saw that it was the willof God that he should depart and be with Christ, soon gave way toothers in accordance with the manifested will of God. Like the compasswhen struck, vibrating from side to side, finally rests pointing tothe Pole, so this servant of Christ, when first aware of the approachof death was disturbed. The thoughts of home and kindred near and dearthe thoughts of his studies and his future places, caused him to bedisturbed -- to give them all up suddenly was a painful effort but
