PARENTS HELD FIRST SUNDAY SCHOOL HERE
Friends of Thomas L. Scott, pioneer resident of Richmond, and brother of the late William G. Scott, one of the founders of Gaar, Scott & Co., have been notified of his death in Redfield, Ia., from senility.
Scott was one of the leading men of Wayne county in the early days. He came to Wayne county with his parents, who were of Scotch-Irish stock, and Covenanters of the strictest sect. It was in their home that the first Sunday school in Wayne county was organized.
When twelve years old he began to work in one of the local woolen mills. He volunteered for the Mexican war at the age of 19, but was rejected. He was an ardent Abolitionist and helped to raise troops for the northern cause during the Civil war. He was elected county auditor on the Democratic ticket. He moved to Redfield in 1867, entering the mercantile business, and later engaging in farming. He retired a number of years ago.
