"Dr. James Webb was a strongly built man, perhaps five feet ten in height, inclined to be fleshy, very fair complexion, black hair (coarse), dark eyes and a hearty laughter. He was fond of hunting with dogs and horses. 'We were very fond of him, loved him like a brother'. He had a warm sympathetic heart, like his son Dr. Joseph Webb, and was always very kind to the poor. when it was known he could not live he gave particular directions that many accounts against poor people shouldn't be collected. His sister said, 'Why, James, what will become of your own children?' He replied, 'My children will never suffer."
