Abstract:
Bugs Barringer recounts tales of his father, Osmond Barringer of Charlotte, North Carolina, who was a true innovator. Among the stories recounted in print, Osmond was responsible for the first X-ray ever made at Davidson College. In addition, Osmond was fond of automobiles, buying from the first load of steam \"Locomobiles\" delivered in the South, and proceeded to set several speed records in his vehicles.
