The Death of Attorney Fleet Cox brought sincere sorrow to his large circle of relatives and friends here. He had been in failing health for a year of more, and left his home in Baltimore to spend Christmas with his sister and brother at Mrs. Downing Cox's home in Washington. He was unwell when he reached Washington and although he had the best doctors and trained loved ones to tenderly and lovingly nurse him he daily grew weaker and died on Jan. 8, 1927, Mr. Cox was the eldest son of our late Col. F. W. Cox and his wife Mary. He was born in and grew to manhood in this county. Thrown on his resources early in life, he was untiring in his labors and self denial until he graduated in law at Maryland University. He made his home and practiced his profession in Balt. He never married and his remains were brought back to be buried in Old Yeocomico Cemetery.
