Captain Theodore F. Malloy, now a prominent citizen of Cheraw, S. C., was engaged in the study of medicine when war was made on his native State. He enlisted as early as January, 1861, in Company E, Eighth South Carolina infantry, and was appointed orderly-sergeant. On April 13, 1861, the company was mustered into the Confederate service at Charleston, and after about eight months further service he was promoted to third lieutenant, then first lieutenant, and on July 20, 1863, he was made captain, in which capacity he served the balance of the war, surrendering with Gen. Joe Johnston at Greensboro. His service was arduous and his battles numerous, as the following list will show: First Manassas, Peninsular campaign, Williamsburg, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Chickamauga, Chattanooga, Campbell's Station, fights around Knoxville, Bean's Station, winter campaign in east Tennessee, Wilderness, Spottsylvania Court House, Bottom's Bridge, and all the fights from Spottsylvania to and including Cold Harbor, Deep Bottom, Second Malvern Hill, Petersburg (and on the lines during the siege of that city about three weeks), Berryville, near Winchester, Hupp's Hill, Charlestown, W. Va.; Cedar Creek, and in the trenches in front of Richmond from December to about February, when they were transferred to Charleston, S. C., thence to Savannah, and then back to Charleston. At the evacuation of the latter city his regiment was transferred to Cheraw, where he was detached from his command and put in charge of a party of scouts, who kept on the right flank of Sherman's army, skirmishing with the enemy nearly every day. He rejoined his command at Smithfield, N. C., and from there moved to Raleigh and thence to Greensboro where he surrendered with Johnston. After this he returned home and entered mercantile business at Cheraw, and subsequently at Kollock's. He was born in Cheraw, February 10, 1841, and received a good education at various schools. He was married, in 1883, to Miss Mary Bell McKay, of Cheraw. He is a member of J. B. Kershaw camp, No. 413, U. C. V. In 1876 he was appointed by Governor Hampton as treasurer of Chesterfield
