Individual:
Adams and Fannie Hayne named their first son Theodore, after Adams' father, and their second son Isaac after Colonel Isaac Hayne, the Martyr. When the third son was born, the old colored woman who ran the house grabbed the baby and said, "Dis the little doctor!" He was named James Adams Hayne, Junior, and was called Little Doctor by the family, shortened by some to Doctor, then to Doc. His wife, children, and friends all called him Doc, though I'm sure some thought it was just because he was a physician.
Doc attended The Citadel, as did all of his brothers. He was nicknamed "Brute" as a cadet because of his exceptionally small size. He was accepted at the Medical College of South Carolina before graduation, but was court-martialed for leaving campus at night. As result, though defended by his father during the proceedings, he did not receive a diploma until well into his first year of Medical School. In one of his Medical College notebooks, Doc wrote three quotes: "Degree of Doctor of Medicine, the highest honor possible to be conveyed on man. The noblest and most altruistic profession."
"I swear by all I regard as holy to maintain the honor and dignity of my
profession."
"The saddest words of pen or tongue are these three little words- 'I've been flunked." I think these statements accurately reflect Doc's consummate professionalism, unwavering personal integrity, and pervasive sense of humor. After graduation, Doc took a course in Surgery in New York, got married, and became a General Practitioner at a Federal Prison or Psychiatric Hospital. He later set up private practice in Ridgeland, South Carolina. He was recruited to move thirty miles up the road to Hampton, South Carolina, where he remained. In February, 1951, Doc's sister Daisy died. Her husband had died three months earlier, and their three children were left without parents. Doc and Larry, who already had a son and daughter, adopted these three.Hampton County Guardian:
"Now there are seven: Hampton County has lost what it can ill afford to lose, a doctor.
The death of Dr. James Adams Hayne ended a long-time and very large medical-surgical practice in Hampton and Hampton General Hospital. In a very real sense the community shares his loss with the Hayne family at this time.
Member of a family of doctors, Dr. Hayne was a son of one of South Carolina's first state health doctors, the late Dr. James Adams Hayne (senior). He grew up on a plantation in Congaree. In an old Episcopal churchyard there he was returned and laid to rest October 12, after losing out to cancer, a disease he spent a lifetime helping many victims fight. His was an old, old South Carolina name of historic significance: Among his ancestors was an American Revolutionary patriot, Isaac Hayne.
Dr. Hayne came to Hampton to practice medicine soon after World War II began, continuing a very busy practice until retirement early in 1982. He was for many years chief of medical staff of the county hospital. Since his retirement and illness, he has been much missed on the doctor-short medical-health care front in Hampton County.
A measure of community esteem was reflected in the Distinguished Citizen Award accorded to him by Hampton Rotary Club June 27.
His contributions to health care shared for the last 30 years in the Hayne-Young clinic with Dr. W.L. Young will be remembered and appreciated by the community they served together--Long after he's gone.
The Guardian joins in extending words of sympathy to his wife, Larry, and their children and their families in their great personal loss and grief."
