1864, her life passing away on the same day that her son fell wounded on a Georgia battlefield. Young Mahone was educated at Hampton military academy, under Col. John B. Gary, until the age of fifteen, when he entered mercantile life. When the war broke out he had been, for three years or more, engaged at Richmond as a clerk in a drug store, an employment which he abandoned in July, 1861, to enlist as a private in the Nottoway artillery, commanded by Capt. W. G. Jeffress. With this command he served throughout the war, with promotion to the ranks of sergeant and corporal. During 1861 and 1862 his battery was connected with the command of Gen. Humphrey Marshall in Kentucky, eastern Tennessee and southwest Virginia. After serving under circumstances of peculiar hardship in the Cumberland mountains, during the winter of 1861, he participated in the battle of Middle Creek, Ky., in which the Confederates repulsed the attacks of the Federals under Col. James A. Garfield. Subsequently Mr. Mahone served under General Marshall in southwest Virginia, fighting at Princeton in May, 1862. In the following summer he marched with his command into Kentucky again, co-operating with Bragg, and then returned to southwest Virginia. During 1863 he was attached to the forces under General Buckner, operating in Tennessee and Georgia, and participated in the battle of Chickamauga and the many battles of the Atlanta campaign, in one of which he was wounded, August 9, 1864. A month later he rejoined his command, near Macon, Ga., and continued in the service until the battery surrendered its guns at Hamburg. Subsequently he resumed his occupation as a drug clerk, in Macon, Ga., Hampton, Va., and Baltimore, Md., until 1883, when he embarked in the same business at Hampton, a business venture which has been quite successful. He is loyal to his comrades and is past lieutenant-commander and treasurer of R. E. Lee camp, No. 3. In 1882 he was married to Mary Theresa Reardon, who died September 1, 1884.
James A. Maloney, M. D., late of Washington, D. C., was a native of Baltimore, Md., born in 1846, the son of Daniel Maloney, also a native of that State, who served as a private in the Maryland Line during the war with Mexico. The mother of Dr. Maloney was the daughter of Anthony Grady, who was born in Ireland and participated in the Revolution of 1798 in that country, and, on immigrating, became a member of the Second company. Fifty-first regiment of infantry, Maryland Line, and fought at North Point and Fort McHenry in the war of 1812. When the Northern troops were brought to Baltimore, on April 19, 1861, young Grady, though but a youth at the time, and receiving his education at St. Joseph's academy, shared in the popular demonstration against the invasion of the city, and, during the melee, received a gunshot wound in the leg. This was not so serious, however, as to prevent his leaving two days later for Richmond, where he eagerly sought service in the Confederate ranks. He was enlisted in the company of Capt. Joseph Forrest, in the Virginia military, at Mathias Point, in June, 1861, and he remained with that command until it was disbanded in the following September.
