Markham, the subject of this sketch was born in Elizabeth City on the 8th day of November, 1882 land born, too of as good parentage as any body is born of. As a child he played on the streets of Elizabeth City and grew up under the observaflon' of the people of his cfty.All of his acts have done right here in Elizabeth City and no person can say that they hare ever known Tom Markham to be suiltv of anything mean. In his boyhood he attended Prof. Tillett's school and was trained under the,' tutorage of this brilliant scholar and distinguished gentlemaa. Aleng with the superior learning of this man was imparted many of the prin ciples with distinguished the Ife of this man asxd which now live in his pupil He spent his boyhood here and im pressed all With his manly straight forward character for which the peo ple respected and trusted him. When he r-cached maturity, he enteredWake Forest College, and there he conduct ed himself in the same upright and correct manner which insirired the coafidence and admiration mt the fac ulty and studeat body al4ke.

His law practice has had a steady healtby growth in which tfiere has appeared nothing that indicate that he is brilliant and consequently erra tic. In the growth of his practice aad in the development of his charac ter and personal influence whir-h hao been abundantly necessfm he has monstrated to the satisfaction of the people of this city and county that ia capable of periormina any dutvi taat he may uidertake and that any onndence that may be entrwtert to him Will not be winJan.H Km a. the other hand will be sacredly kept His temperament is of a deeply re ligious nature and he takes an ac tive part in church work and in any movement to better the religion or moral condition of the people among whom he lives and whom he loves.
