Since his retirement from the town clerkship he has spent most of the time in travel. He was the son of Welcome Arnold Hoxie, who %00k up his residence in Westefly in 1839, where he died in December, 1875. Willlam Hoxsey was & brother of M: Stephen Wilcox, the donor of the M morial and Public Library building and Wilcox park, and the last surviver of the family. o William Hoxsey, who for twenty-two years was the efficient town clerk of Westerly, was one-of the foremost and wealthiest citizens of the town. Hel was a descendant in the second gen- eration from Lodowiek Hawksie, who came to America soon after 1650, from Scotland, and was the progenitor of a numerous posterity. The present day speliing of the name takes various forms, such as Hoxsey, Hoxie, Hoxsie, vet all those bearing the name are de- scendants of Lodowick Hawksie. ‘William Hoxsey was born March 1, 1840, in the homestead ims High etreet, Westerly, which he always made his home. During_his boyhood he attend- ed school in Westerly and later was a student in the Kingston private school and at the Friends' school in Providence. His first regular employ- ment was in the grocery story of Hall & Shefeld in Westerly, and subse- aquently, for a period of five vears, he was associated with the dry goods firm of Robinson & Hoxsey. Though most of his time has been devoted to the public service, he has been prommi- nent in local industrial and financial matters. He was vice president of the old Phenix bank and al the time of death was a director of the Washing- ton Trust company, and until Novem— ‘ber, ‘1907, president of the Pawcatuck Valley Street Rallway company. Mr. Hoxsey was appointed deputy town clerk July, 1882, and the year fol- Jowing was elected town. clerk, being re-elected continuously until June, 1907, when he declined further nomi- nation. He was representative from Westerly in the general assembly of 1891, and served in the senate in 1893 and 1894. Being a republican of prom- inence, he took keen interest in party success and was regarded as one of ‘the most influential men in this sec- tion of Rhode Island. He was promi- nent in Masonic circles and was treas- urer of Narragansett commandery, Knights Templar, for many years. He devoted no small portion of his leisure to the study of art, of which he was an ardent admirer ‘and judicious pa- tron. Mr. Hoxsey was a zealous member of Christ Episcopal church, Westerly, and a generous contributor, his Easter of- fering being $1,000. Hé was warden of the church for many vears and at the recent annual meeting was _elected senior warden, succeeding the late Ed- win Babcock. He was aléo treasurer of_the church. Mr. Hoxsey married in New York, June 4, 1861, Miss Louise D. Heggie. WESTERLY'S LEADING CLOT- STORE— R. G. Bliven & Co., On the Bridgy RECAL SHOE AGENCY.
