Northern Alabama, historical and . ans, who have grown u]) under theirtraining to adult estate and taken their places inthe world and such positions in society to reflectthe greatest credit and honor upon their fosterparents. Captain and Mrs. Graham are membersof the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, andthe Captain is a Mason. ?——»S€{^-?artici])ated,including Gettysburg, Richmond. Petersburg,. NORTHERN ALABAMA. 713 Fredericksburg, the second Manassas, and manyothers wliose names are not now recalled, took an active part. At the close of thewar he returned to Marion and soon after-ward established the mercantile firm of J. & Co. This tirm subsequently becameMoore & Fitzgerald, and went out of mercantilebusiness in 1883. The .Marion Savings Bank wasestablished in 187-2, and he became its presidentin 18s:i. The cajiital stock of this bank is ^50,000,and something of the skill with which has managed it may be gathered fromthe fact that in 1883 its stock was selling at fiftycents on the dollar, while now it sells at aboutpar. It is proper to say that Mr. Moore is a self-mademan. What of this worlds goods he has, havebeen acciuired by his individual effort and indus-try. He was ilayor of Marion in 188-?, whichseems to constitute the sum of his public services. At ITuntsville, this State, in October, 187-J, hemarried Miss Sarah F. Hobinson. THOMAS
