\V. I>. Camp, the present Auditor j
of Cherokee county atid candidate for j
re-eioction, waa born in vvliai vvaa ;
then Spartanburg courty, four miles
above Uatfuey City in the year 182.").
At the age of thirteen years his father
died, leaving him in charge of an aged
mother to attend to. On arriving at
the age of twenty-one, having very
little education, he left his mother
and went to school, the Limestone
Male and Female Academy, under
charge of Prof. I>. D. Rosa. He grad
uated in the English branches and
toolc charge of a common school in
York county, S. C. After teachin;.-
fifteen months he gave ud his school
to attend to his mother in her last
sickness. After her death he began
the study of law under Messrs. S.
Bobo & O. E. Edwards, at Spartan
burg court house. Not liking the
practice of law he embarked in the
merchandise business at Limestone
Springs in copartnership with Col. W.
W. GalTney, and while at that busi
ness he was elected Major of the
1st Batall.on, STch Regiment, South
Carolina militia, and in about two
years afterwards ho was elected colo
nel of said regiment by a large ma
jority over his competitor. Lieut.
Col. William Webster, which otlice
he held till the breaking out of the
trouble in Kansas Territory. He
volunteered and went to Kansas in
the defense of the Southern states
and remained there untill the trouble
was settled, and was honorably dis-
Fir«t Lieutenant of the
people. He is now seventy-two years ^
of age and is quite vigorous and ac
tive in mind and in body and has so
far filled his new position with credit
and satisfaction to all.
Col. Camp is a mason, having join
ed Spartan Lodge No. 70, A. F. M., in
1819. He, with other members, ap
plied for a charter and formed Ma
sonic Lodge No. 202, at, Blacksburg
in 1871, of which he is still k charter
nu mber in good standing. He joined
the Buffalo Baptist church in Chero-
okoe Township No. 1, in 1879 and
still retains his membership with
that church.
Col. Camp is a widower. He is of
genial disposition, kind and polite to
everybody and his presence serves to
dispel the gloom for the time being
from any who may come in contact
with him. Cherotcee is fortunate in
t he selection of William Daniel Camp
as her first auditor.

The company that Capt. Camp led
was known as Company I, 5th Regi
ment 8. C. V., sometimes called the
* Tigers.” He was dubbed by his
comrades “Old Tige.” He was
wounded at Seven Pines on May 91,
18G2, He received a furlough and
remained at home eleven months
when he returned to his company in
Virginia in 1808. He was attached
to Lougstreet’s corps and was in sev
eral battles around Lookout Moun

and skirmishes that that corps was
engaged in during the war, and in
1884 received a second wound In the
batpe near Dr. Johnson’s house, nine
milts below Richmond, which ended
his career as a soldier, haring re
ceived a wound that never healed and
which necessitated the amputation of
his leg in 1890, since which time he
has had to go on crutches. Col.
Camp taught school from 1870 to 1880,
and held the office of Trial Justice in
the town of Blacksburg for eighteen
years in sucoeasion. He received the
ermine of office at the hands of the
Hon. W. C. Black, one of the ablest
and grandest jurists of South Car
olina, and he laid the ermine of office
aside as pure and unspotted as when
he received it. He was noted for his
decisions having been seldom re
