Notes |
- His early education was acquired under the tutelage of that prince of schoolmasters, Robert Proud. While a student under the latter he edited, for a period, an amateur periodical, in manuscript, called The Student's Gazette, as we learn from the Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography, Volume XXIII, page 117, which says:
Between the years 1774 and 1780 a number of "newspapers" and "magazines" were issued in manuscript by scholars of Robert Proud's Latin School, for circulation among their schoolmates. Some were ephemeral and others had a life of a year or more. Of these literary ventures the most successful were The Students' Gazette, edited in 1777 by S. M. Fox, and the Universal Magazine and Literary Museum, a duodecimo of 14 pp., edited in 1774 by Samuel L. Wharton.
Like his older brother George Fox, he inherited, to a considerable extent, the intellectual force and business capacity of his distinguished father. He was one of the incorporators of the Bank of Pennsylvania, in 1793, and, in 1796, became its president, which position he held until his death. He served in both branches of the City Councils, in the Common Council in 1793-1797, and in the Upper Chamber in 1797-1800. He became an active and influential member, serving upon important committees bearing upon the finances of the municipality, etc.
In 1796 he was a member of Select Council of Philadelphia, and a member of a committee to take into consideration the finances of the city, etc., whose report of the then sources of the city revenue is contained in a small pamphlet of much interest. He also served on one or more of the "watering" committees of Philadelphia, and was at one time one of the trustees of University of Pennsylvania.
He was also a director of the Philadelphia Library Company; a trustee of the University of Pennsylvania (1800 until his death); a manager of the Pennsylvania Hospital (1794-1797), etc. The history of the last-mentioned institution says of him:
His talents, integrity and industry, and his attention to the interests of literature and art, rendered him an extremely useful member of the community in which he spent his life.
Samuel M. Fox was so impressed with a belief in the ultimate value of the land in the northwestern part of the state, which came into the market after the Indian treaties of 1784 and 1785, that he sold Philadelphia real estate and purchased largely of what were then known as "back-hands" (a popular form of investment at that time, which brought great wealth to some, but involved others in financial ruin). At his death, one hundred and eighteen thousand acres, not including his land in Venango, now Clarion county, were divided. In what is now Clarion county there were a number of warrants granted to George and Samuel M. Fox between 1785 and 1789. About 1795 they took out eight one-thousand-acre warrants, seven of which lay along the Allegheny, north of the Clarion River. These were patented in 1796 and became the sole property of Samuel M. Fox. Much of the land was afterwards disposed of, but a considerable portion of the original purchase at the confluence of the Allegheny and Clarion rivers is still a family possession. The story of its development belongs to a later generation.
