A tribute newspaper unknown date unknown (before Aug 16, 1922) Of the old-timers who were here forty-four years ago and are still living Mr. T. M. Carter looms into prominence. In him, in an all-roundway, is one of the best men we ever had in Albany. He was a partner and executive officer of the firm of N. & A. F. Tift & Co., which firm did a general warehouse and banking Mr. Carter, like the writer, is getting along in years, but is still in the land of the living, and his honored name, as good as that of any man , has long headed a firm of warehouseman and cotton factors. He has held positions of trust and responsibility, and has now passed the allotted "three score years and ten," and when he is called hence, as he must in the very nature of things ere many years, no man can in truth of him that he was other than an honest man. Mr. Carter needs no encomium at my hands or those of any other man, but as one who has known him well and long, I want to leave him well and long I want to leave my little bouquet of flowers at his door now, rather than wait unit he is dead, if perchance I live longer.
