In thoso days Orangeburg, as well as
now, had* ber merchants, solid, wholo
soulcd, persevering, practical mou, who,
by tho "sweat of thoir brow," labored
to build up tboir trade in the place.
The most prominent among these were
Sylvester Beaoh, Sanders Glovor,
Willliam Ponser, dohn Tyler and ' Billy
Murrow." Their stores wcro mostly
after the order of little country stores
iu general, dry goods, groceries, licld
implements, country produce, fruits of
the town and of the garden placed pro
miscuously together with more regard
to their effect in attracting custom, than
to no'itness and order. Then too there
in the doorway stood tho proprietor him
himself, with coat oft and shirt . Icevo <
rolled up, reat'y to signal out his fi lends

and ever on the ah it to Strike a goo 1

The principal products of OVangtburg
in Whose duy was butter, chiekoirs uvni1
eggs. Theso would be brought into
market in queer-looking, little vehicle.'?
uullcd carts quite in vogue at that time,
as ttuggics anil-the latter style of Wag
ons were (men Cota4ly mikoowm. Tho->c
carts consisted of an ill shaped plank
body upon twa frhafts, the lubter being
hold up by a strip of leather, or "back
band" us it was called) sewed in a loop
at each end und which worked up into
an uncouth little saddle placed in the
oonter of the horseback. Upon this
the "old man" rode and guided "the.
critter," wd>i!e tho "old otnan," in while
fly-bonnet und huge cheek apron, snt
within the cart to look uftor the things,
and "soo as none got busted." In some
cases a littlo black jug would find it's
way between-the c?op of chickens and
basket of cggs^ which oluding the
vigilant eyo ol the "old owiuen," would
be taken into one of the littlo doggeries,
which stood in the village, there to be
filled, und returned a gain when '?the
old 'oinan want a hfdein." Benching
the village thoir butter, eggs, etos would
bo taken Into tho stores und tlicr* trad
f\ off for "n'/'ou 9tuft"' spun ;o.ru "<ex
backer," a "frock for tbo gals," oto.
Sometimes great, strapping, ?urefooted
youths would trudgo along by the side
of the cart with a gun oo their shoulder
going fn to the place 'here to purchase
powder and shot for the purpose of wa
ging war against the feathered tribe.
The public buildings iu Orangoburg
iu the days of w hich we are writing were
very few indeed. Such a tiling as a
town hall, or a hall of any other kiud, was
altogether unknown. The bid court
house of that tiino was a plain, modest,
unassuaiiug, wooden building, two stories
iu heighth, the first floor being devoted
to the sherifl'c office, that of the clerk of
court and Ordinary and tax-collector.
One or two lawyers ulso had their
offices here. The court room and jury
room occupied the second floor. The
room for Induing court at that time was
about forty feet square, with bare floor,
unpatutod walls, wooden beucHos for the
judges, etc. This building iu after
yenrs was altered and repaired, changed
to a private residence, and still stands
on the same spot it formerly occupied.
Not very far from thi< was the jail, a
small, strong building of hewn logs,
rough and uuproposcssing in appearance,
but serving well the purpose for which
it was designed. About this time the
new court house, since destroyed, was
in the course of erection and was soon
after finished, also the present jail. Th s
last will stand for years t> come
yet a living monument to the iudustry
mid perseverance of those who planned
it. The days 'ar holding court iu
grange-burg thou was regarded as quite
a lively time, great crowds flocking
hither to attend the .sessions. Hut des
pite the influx of visitors, and the
whiskey, which was pretty freely cir
culated, very few disturbances of any
kind occurred, which spoke well for the
pcaccablouess of the inhabit tuts. ? Wff
Foremost among the lawyers stool
duo M. Felder, Thomas VV. (Ilover and
a Mr. Whittuoro. Of the talents and
popularity of John M. Felder his elec
tion s ion after by the Jwioplo ofl his !
native State to fiil the position of Sena- j
tor from that District was sufficient
proof. In the Senate Chamber as well
a* in the little court hou c at home his
voice rang out fc irl ssly in defence of
the cause of truth and ri^ht, and never
by word or deed did he ever betray the
confidence'of the pe qde, who had made
him their choice, but stood up boldly for
them, a representative of /rboiu Orange
burg luiiglii well be proud. Mr. Kjldor
was a lithe dark-cotuplexioUC 1 nun,
with b'ack hair and whiskers, rather
below the medium height, somewhat
nvfvon* and abstrrsted in manner, and
inclined to he brusque in spoeeh. In
the time' c? which we are. writing he
might often1 be seen walking up and
down the principal streets of the village,
his hat pulled down over his eyes,
deeply engaged in reflection. Some
times he has been km>Wn to pass by his
most intimate friends without rcco*gnri
... I
tion, so dceoly would ho he buried in
revrio. Then again throwing off this '
preocupicd air, he could bo US merry
and jovial ns any, and his doors were
always hospitably thrown upon to guests
and numerous were the happy hours
some of &Vn in spent at uC?b'*\Veb Hall,"
as his residence was more familiarity
called. This appellation grew our of
the f'"t of its master's being a bachelor
form. V Ire was taunted unmercifully by
a number of waggish fellows around tho
village, who declared his hou~e was
literally covered inside with cobwebs for
the want <4' a "fair band" to keep them
bru>hed away. Cut their jokes never
had the desired effect "Cob M ob IlaH"
remaiued without a mistress, its master
spending all his days in '?single blessed
ness;'
Th mas W. ClduVcr, though1 very
young at that time, was one of the most
talented and rising young members of
the bar. Indeed bis eloquence was
the theme of every tongue. Sometimes
he seemed inspired, and then judge, ju
ry, audience, forgot all else as they lis
tened chained, enraptured, to the
words of thunder which rolled from the
Iipn of the youthful Demosthenes. Nor
did-his after career, which grew more
briHinnt with time, disappoint the Imp es
and expectations of his young iimuho >d .
