Henry Cabell Tabb, M. D. Of all the
professions that of medicine has been unani- mously conceded to be of the first impor- tance in its benefit to humanity. The brave men who constantly offer their lives in this noble cause, are no less heroes than those who died on the field of battle, and frequent- ly their professional work is combined with the hardships and dangers which a soldier is called upon to encounter. This has not- ably been the case of the late Dr. Henry Cabell Tabb, of Richmond, Virginia, whose death threw gloom over the entire commun- ity.
Dr. Henry Cabell Tabb was born in Rich- mond, Virginia, March 3, 1839, a son of Philip Mayo and Martha (Mayo) Tabb, and a nephew of Joseph Mayo, for many years mayor of Richmond. He was just about eight years of age when his father removed from Richmond, having purchased "Re- veille," a large estate since owned by the late Dr. R. A. Patterson, and situated on the Cary street road. The early education of Dr. Tabb was received in Charles City county, where he was a student in the school conducted by his brother-in-law, Mr. Ferguson, and from this went to the then famous school conducted by David Turner in Richmond. He was prepared for the university at Richmond College, and having for a long time decided to follow the profession of medicine, previously studying the same in the office of old Dr. Henry Ca- bell, of Richmond, he matriculated at the Medical College of Virginia, from which institution he was graduated in the class of i860 with the degree of Doctor of Medicine. He established himself in the practice of his profession at City Point, Prince George county, and was thus engaged at the out-
break of the civil war. He at once enlisted.
