The American Oxonian
Class of 1913, Preston Lockwood, Secretary
T. H. Jones, after getting out of the Army, where he was a 1st Lt. F. A., gave up the active practice of law and went into the banking and orange growing business in Arcadia, Fla., as his address. He is enthusiastic about the country which he describes as "wonderful" and "full of opportunities for the young man." But his real cheers are reserved for another announcement. " The most important event in my life" he writes, "was my marriage on December 23, 1916 to Cora Belle Kenney, of Frankfort, Kentucky. I have one child, Thomas Hawkins Jones, Jr., three years old today." (written May 7, 1921-the birth date of his 1st born)
