4ty years ngo a small collection ol
" , standing near the banks of the
'o, und Rurrouudod on all sides by
v unbroken forest of pine and oak

villngc. Small and modest indeed
s when compareed with the present

. Some fifteen or twenty privat?
nee? ; about two hundred inhubi
; one or two publio buildings ; u
dozen stores; two churches, and
togothor wit h an occasional black
and cobbler shop, completed the

r ?nd Jno M. Felder ?
In those days Orsngeburg, as well as
now, ha({ her merchants, solid, wholo
fouled, persevering, practical luon, who,
by tho "swoat of thoir brow," labored
to build up thoir trade in the place.
The most prominent among tbeso were
Sylvester Beach, Sanders Glover,
Willliam rooser, John Tyler and "Billy
Murrow." Their stores were mostly
after the order of little country stores
iu general, dry goods, groceries, Hold
implements, country produce, fruit* of
the town and of the garden placed pro
miscuously together with more regard
to their effect in attracting custom, than
to noatness and order. Then too there
in the doorway stood the proprietor him
hitnsclf, with coat oft and shirt sleeve*
rolled up. rcat'y to bigual out his friends
coming in from the country urouttd
and ever ou the alert to 6triko a goo 1
bargain.
One of the most thorough go ahead,
wide awake of these buaiuesa men was
Sylvester Beach. A few years before be
had come front New England, and halt
ing at last in tho little Village of
Orangeburg, thoro started out as a
peddler of tiiukets, clocks and other
wares. IIo had a qucr, old fashioned
carryall, with an muck tit, solemn-faced
hurnc attached, and with those, in all
kinds of Weather, he might be seen
driving .-,vcr tho country round about
bargaining for the sale of hin wares.'
lie was sharp, quick wilted, persevering,
reaily to drive a trade, and a* tuty be
supposed, sit ceeded well. A few yours
of hard work, and iud-'stry, self-denial,
and Sylvester bad saved euough to start
out iu the store-keeping business. Pur
chasing a "good lock out" in one corner
of Orangeburg, ha settled down as a
lesident merchant. Here hi* t <-m trka
bio business tact did not desfcrt him, and
as the years rolled on be soon came to
be rccogniz sd as ans nl' the wealthiest

Sunders was full of his joke*, and not
only ever ready to have them at other
It/Iks' expense, but b ire it qtrte amiably

he was the greatest moter iu tho plaee,
and a wind miii was nothing to be eum
pared ui;h hint. Numerous wero the
jokes ::t 1 is expense that this gave rise
to. One of these we remember to have
heard. By ,so:no chance a number of
the glass iu tho windows of his. sleeping
apartment became cracked, whieh some
waggUh young fellows observing, went
and reported it over the Village lha; Sau
der?' snoring had deveb^rrj itself t"

the glass iu his windows. This, San

"Billy Murrow" to everybody. Kvea1
the little children, from hearing their
fathers repeat the name so often, hud
grown familiar with it. No one acarco

j, 'JJhe princ'vpul1 products of Orangeburg
in tfhose day was butter, ehickone p.mr
eggs. These would be brought into
market irr queer-looking, little' vehicles*
called carts qnite in vogue at that time,
'ae Buggies and'the-letter style of wag
ons were tfheu- totally* unknown1. The*o
carts consisted of btj iH shaped plunk
body upon two shafts, the litter being
held up by a strip, of leather, or "buck
band" as it was called., sowed in a loop
at each cud and which worked up into
an uncouth little saddle placed in the
center of the horse's back. Upon this
the "old man" rode and guided "the
critter," w-bile tho "old oinan," in white
fly-bonnet and hugo cheek aprou, sat
within the curt to look alter the things,
and "see as none got busted." In some
eases a littlo black jug would find it's
way between (be coop of chicken-i and
.basket ef eggs, wVioh eluding the
vigilant eyo oi the "old owmou," would
bo taken into one of tho littlo doggeries/
\>hieb stood in the village, thcro to bo
filled, and returned u gain when 'the
old *tmun irtm't a loofcin." Reaching
the village, their butter, eggs, etos would
be takenTtto tbo stores and there trad
ed off for "nr/fou atuff'' spun ;<uu "ler
buuker," a "frock fur the gala," oto.
Sometimes great, strapping, bare footed
youths would trudge along by the side
of the cart with a gun oo their ahouldor
going in to the place there to purchase
powder and shot for the purpose of Wa
ging war against the feathered tribe.
The public buildings iu Orangeburg
in tho days of which we arc writing were,
very few iudeed. Such u thing as a
towu hall, or a hall of any other kiud, was
altogether unknown. Tho bid court
house ol that time was a plain, modest,
unassuming, wooden building, two stories
iu heigbth, tho first flour being devoted
to the sheriff's office, that of the clerk of
court and Ordinary and tax-collector.
One or two lawyers also had their
offices here. The court-room and jury
room occupied the second floor. The
room for holding court at that time wan
about forty fnet square, with bare floor,
unpaiuted walls, wooden beneUcs for the
judges, otc. This building in after
yenrs was altered and repaired, changed
to a private residonce, and .still stands
on tho same spot it formerly occupied.
Not very far from thit was the jail, a
small, Strong building of hewn lugs,
rough and uupreposcssing iu appearance,
but serving well the purpose fur 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. Tb s
last will stand for years to come
yet a living monument to the industry
mid perseverance of those who planned
it. Tho days 'ar holding court in
yrangclurg than was regarded as qnitfi
a lively time, great crowds flocking
hither to atteud 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
peaccableuess of the inhabit nits.
Foremost among the lawyers stool
Juo. M. Felder, Thomas \Y. Glover and
a Mr. Whit more. Of the talents and
popularity of John M. Felder his elec
tion soon after by the people of his
native State to fill the position of Sena
tor fruiu that District was sufficient
proof. In the Senate Chamber as well
av in the little court hou.^c at home his
voice rang out fe.irl.ss1y in defcuco of
the causa of truth aud ri^ht, and never
by word or deed did ho ever betray the
confidence" of the pe ?ple, who had made
him thoir choice, but stood up boldly for
them, a representation of jrliom Orangc
burg [miglil well be proud. Mr. Felder
was a lit hi- dark-complex tone 1 man,
with b'ack hair and whiskers, rather
below the medium height, .somewhat
nervotn and abstracted in manner, and
inclined to be brusque in spoech. In
the *;uie of which we arc writing he
might often be seen walking up and
down the principal streets-of tire village,
his hat pulled down over bis eyes,
ilcepl}* engaged in rcflcethtW. Sotuo
i imes he has been knoWn to pass by his
most intimate friends without rcccgr/i
ttou, so deeply would he be buried in
revrte. Then again throwing off this
preocupicd uir, he could bo as merry
and jovial ns any, and his doors were
always hospitably thrown upon to guests
and numerous were the hnppy hours
some of sbeni spent at "Cob*Web Hall,"
as his residence was more familiarily
called. This appellation grew out of
the fact of its master's being a bachelor
for which lve wm taunted umueroifully by
a number of waggish fellows around tho
village, who declared his hou-e was
literally covored iuside with cobwebs for
the want of a '"fair hand" to keep them
brushed away. J * tit their jokes never
had the desired effect "Cob-Wob IlaM"
reniaiued without a mistress, its master
spending all his days iu ''single blessed
ly
i icss.
Th mas W. Glover, th'oughv very
young at that time, was one of the most
talented an I rising young members of
the bar. Indeed bin eloquence was
the ihome of every tongue. Sometimes
ho seemed inspired, and then judge, ju
ry, audience, forgot ull else us they lis
tened chuincd, enraptured, to the
I Word? of thunder which- rolled from the
lips of the youth'ful Demosthenes. Nor
did* his- after enrcei>, which grew more
briHinnt with time, dssnppoint the hopes
I and ex-pnc tat ions of his young inuuho >d .
