Solomon J. Parsons, third son of James W. and Catherine Neville Parsons, was bom in the Horse Shoe, the spot noided for great beauty in summer, but more beautiful in the fall, when the leaves are turning brown and are of all hues and colors which no artist can paint. He owns four hundred acres of land one mile from St. George. His farm is well improved and stocked with the best cattle and horses. He is considered one of the most famous hunters of all the Parsons. One season he killed 31 deer, and met with an accident which was marvellous it did not prove fatal; he fell over a high cliff, 85 feet, striking projecting rocks several times, and rolled into the Cheat River. C. L. Parsons dragged him from the water unconscious. He speedily recovered and cort.inued hunting. He married Emma Parsons, daughter of Job Parsons, Sr. They spent one year traveling in California and different states. His friends are given as warm a welcome in his home as the flowers in May, and his wife is an adept in the art of entertaining.
