Reminiscences and Odd hap
penings and Characters.
BY HON. S.
The good old dnys, nntl the men
who queered the town And the people,
half n century ago, form the subject
of conversation with every group of
loungers, who peek to Intel est them
selves nml others, while the decora
tors nre mnklng the TiullcllnRst look
pretty. Story telling hart become a
matter of business, nnd It Is rcmnrk
able to find so ninny men looked up
ns It were, upon nil the ontiy-duy
hnppenlngs. The tnlcs me not fnney
free, mingled with vnporlngs to be
tnken with n full mensuro of Knit, but
refreshing recouutlngs of ncttml oc
currences thnt form part of the early
history of this comniunlty. The men
who knew the coal town In the early
thirties are few Indeed, but there still
remain several who lemember how the
first workings looked ami the manner
In which coal wns iiunrrled from the
hillside.
The JiRBcre of Bye Whiskey.
Stott's level was among the first un
derground openings from which coal
wns brought to the sill face In ordi
nary wheelbnnows. In these good old
days men worked all day from sun-
rtr.v .tnvvrttw omr.
I'ilM Minilrr In r.nloiii.il
rise to twilight, yet they were happy.
The lad who carried the loaded tin
kettle and dished up the "Jiggers" of
pure rye whiskey to all the mine em
ployes Is still among the living nnd
Is one of the most prominent residents
of the city. He was familiarly known
as the "grog boss," and no one wns
half ns welcome nbout the level ns
he. The regular nllowauce to each
man was three "jiggers" per day, but
the miners and laborers who worked
In wet places were allowed double ra
tion. Strange as It may seem, It Is
related, nnd vouched for, that there
was not a dry place In nil the work
ings known ns Stott's level. Plenty of
work nnd free grog was the rule, and
the men who weie the pioneers In coal
mining adhered strictly to both ends
of the rcciulrement.
Qunint Description of Caibondnle.
From the volume known as the
Gazetteer, published In 1S3L', we have
the following iui!nt description of
Carbondale as it was then:
"Carbondale, on the Lackawnnnook
creek, nt the head of the I.ackawnn
nock valley. Is one of the sudden crea
tions which have been effected by the
coal trade. Distant from W. C. 217
and from ll.inisburg 139 miles. The
village commenced with the works of
the Hudson nnd Delaware Canal and
Coal company, four years since, nnd
now contains about forty dwellings,
seven stores, three taverns. At Its
suburb, Xew Dublin, there nre 120
shanties occupied by the miners.
"The coal mine here is one of the
most extensive and best of the Laekn
wannoek region, nnd a large quantity
of coal Is taken from It annualiv. ami
transported to the Xew York maiket
by the railroad and canal. Acts of as
sembly have been passed for i 'in
structing a turnpike and lallroad down
the Lacknwnnnock valley, and a inll
rnnd to the mouth of the Cli n.ingo
liver, on the Susquehanna, in the state
of Xew Yoik, and also for a an.il
along the Lacknwnnnock , creek io the
Susquehanna, above Wilkes-Bnrre
thereby to open coinniiinlcntlon fmni
Carbondale to south ami north'. Tie
coal mine heie Is situated In the front
of a hill. The coal has been quarried

S. JONES.
In n continued line for sixty rod?, and J
prcM-ntH a front of good coal of twenty
feet In thlektiros, besides several feet
more of roof coal, stained and shat
tered by time nnd the weather. The
miners have lately begun to follow the
bed. without removing the superin
cumbent materials, pillars, of coal be
ing left to support the weight. About
three and one-half acres of the lied
have been removed. The communica
tion from Hudson's river to Carbon
dale. the work of the Hudson nnd
Delaware Cnnnl company, Is by a canal
from the Hudson to the Delaware, near
Carpenter's Point; thence up the east
ern bank of the Delaware to the mouth
of the Larka waxen: thence crossing
the Delaware by h pool formed by n
dam across that river nnd up the
I.ncknwaxen to Honesdale. nt the forks
of the Dyberry, where It terminates
In an nrtlfkial basin, a distance of a
little more than one hundred miles;
thence by a railroad across the Lacka
wnnnock mountain to Carbondale, six
teen miles. The expenditure of the
company on their road, cnnnl nnd
mines exceed two millions of dollars.
The conl fields of the compnny contnln
about S.f.nn acres. From March 20, 1S31,
to November B. there passed over the
railroad 54,328 tons of coal. The com
pany have sold lots In their villages of
Itondout (New York), Honesdale and
Carbondale, to the value of $2S,?:l.S2,
and at Kondout leases have been made
producing an annual rent of Jt,M2."
First Negroes in Carbondale.
Ii Is notable nnd frequently alluded
to by vMtois that there nre so few
colored people nmnng the residents of
this city, yet there were a few of the
tace among the early settleis. In the
year 1S3C, Samuel Jones had two col
oied men In his employ, and when he
rave up boating on the Pennsylvania
canal, bin teamster decided to settle
down In the new coal town. Both will
bt remembered by the older residents.
One was Sam Wright, who for many
years conducted a bakery anil confec
tionery store, wheie the boys ate gin
ger bread and drank "pop." The other
was El! Smith, tnble'ninn nt the Hall
way hotel, and Inter hostler at the
Harrison house barn, when Canfield
Harrison and Edward Burnhnm were
landlords nt that popular tavern.
About the same time, Sam Wilght's
sinter, known as Mammy Brown, took
up her residence In a little log house
on Dundaff street: and a few years
later her brother, Father Walker, came
from Wilkes-Barre.and for many years
was the faithful night watchman at
Benjamin's (later Van Bergen's) foun
dry. Mr. Walker'.' sons were favorites
with the white boys of the early period.
Jack, the elder, was an all-round sport
nnd tlguted In many little Incidents
that served to enliven the community
where exciting happenings were rare.
Daniel, the younger son. wns ell
mannered and always behaved himself
well. He was or a religious turn, but
always disposed to make merry when
occasions offered.
Lnughing: Dan Walker.
Dan could laugh: in fnct, when thor
oughly aroused he became hysterical
and lrsing control of himself he would
fall upon the ground nnd roll ahout,
si reaming and shouting until complete
ly exhausted. He was employed as
htlptr in the Delaware and Hudson
blacksmith shops and furnished per
foi malices of this character whenever
the absence of the foreman would make
It soft for Hiich exhibitions. Dan had
an Idea that the Liberia colonization
scheme was his opportunity, nnd drop
ping his big hammer he Journeyed over
the ocean to the African republic. But
his experience with the primitive Afrl
can was unsatisfactory and Daniel

ga'e up the attempt to push the higher
civilization scheme In dnrkest Africa,
returned to his native land, to the town
where hf was born, and brooding over
his African experience, fell into a de
cline und died.
Ben Jones the Barber.
Ben Jones, the barber, was another
old-timer, who was well known and
liberally patronized. Hank Brown was
another tonsorlal nrtlst of the early
days. Then there was Decatur Blue,
who was a helper at Dayton's wagon
slicp. Decatur figured in a wild scrape
that set the town wWi und tho people
fiuntlc for a night; and before another
day dewned Decatur departed and was
never more seen In this community.
The only colored man who engaged In
undei-Riound work In this locality was
Jon Wilson. Joe proved a good laborer
nnd could till his quotn of cars each
day in. well ns any of the helpers. He
worked for tho latn Edward Jones for
n number of years and when thnt
gentleman gave up mining and en
gaged In the coal 'business at Olyphant,
Joe chanced his place of residence, the
list years of his life being spent at
Montrose.
Joi'i- better-hair bore the suggestive
r.anu of Temperance, but she would
say when In merry mood: "I nevnh
could understand why my old mammy
gave me such a name, for I can't make
piyfelf believe In such things nohow."
Temperance departed this life prema
tu.ely, and left n pair of orphans to
mourn her early and huddeu "taking
oiT."
Colored Em's Bendy Wit.

oiccl waifs about tho town, and the
charitable townspeople supplied them

RELICS OF EARLY DAYS.
On the second floor of Trinity pnr
Ish house, which Is located nenr the
Delnwnie nnd Hudson city station, Is
an exhibition of tellcs which recall the
Interesting early history of Caibondnle.
The tables nnd shelves around the
room nre laden with relies of the ilnys
when the republic was In Its Infnncy
nnd long before this period nnd back
In tin; colonial days. What will es
pecially Interest the hundreds who
hnve come to participate In the Jubilee
cetenionlefl ate the objects that recall
the days when the city of a half cen
tury was only n village nnd the great
anthracite Industry was In the begin
ning or I la development.
How Early Citizens Protested.
In what manner were manifested the
protest nnd Indignation of citizens In
the RO's, who took up nrms against
municipal measures which they be
lieved would be hurtful to their Inter
ests, Is shown In a petition that l dis
played, which was presented to the
councils. Improvements weie contem
plated which might possibly entnll
damages to a numlior of :he leading
merchant of the town. Among those
who might suffer by reason of the con
templated Improvements, a petition
wns circulated nnd tdgned, which rend
ns follows;
To the Honorable, thp Select and Common Coun-

The petition Is on n light blue paper,
which seems to have been In vogue In
those do. vs. as there nre several other
slmllnr documents of the sniine time
which nppear likewise.
The slgnersi are Nathan Jackson, one
of the early phyplclans; Patrick Mof
fltt. a prominent merchant: Anthony
C.rady, once postmaster; Henry Evans,
a merchant: I. H. Estabronk, the first
stationery dealer; John Merrill Poore.
an old merchant; Samuel Adshend.
Samuel Mills, father- of the Mills
Brothers; (Jeorge K. Jones, who was
a Delaware and Hudson mine boss;
Hon. Henry B. Jndwin, who is tho sur
vlor; Horatio S. Pierce, the flrt banker
In Carbondale, nnd S. Johnson.
The signers must have been hotly
Indignant, ifor their signatures nre
written in a bold hand, the letters
three times the ordinary size, and some
of them underscored. It -would appear
that they tried to indicate In their
hnnd writing how wrought up they
were.

The City in 1851.
There 1m quite n curio In the exhibit
of the map of the city In 1SS1. It vns
published by P. Ntimnn. The map Is
nbout Dx4 feet, nnd a comparison of It
with the maps of today does not show
any remntknblc Improvement In their
pindtietioti.
A scrutiny of the mnp reveals the
same names to the streets In the hill
secton of the city ns If todny.There
nre Belmont. Salem. Wnyne, Wyoming,
Archbnlcl. Park, Spring, Washington.
High, Terrace, Church nnd Main
streets. The only difference Is thnt In
those dnys the hill streets were known
ns North Pnrk, North Wyoming, etc.
Blver stteet now wnf Water Htteet
then. Pike street of today wns called
the Wllkes-Bnrre road; nnd Lincoln
nvenue wns known ns Foundry street.
Between Archbnlcl nnd Pnrk streets
was a strip of woods called Sweet's
park. Hound about the border are
prints of the homes of James Arch
bald. rewte Pugh. Judsou Clark, If.
A. Chambers. Dr. J. W. Itaflerty. the
Odd Fellows' hall. Blchmnnd nnd Rob
inson's store, the Methodist, Catholic
and Episcopal churches.
The Old Shop Bell.
The simple wuy In which the wot It
men nt the Delnwnre and Hudson shop
were cnlled back to their tasks after the
dinner hour Is shown In an ordinary
butcher's hell, the Hist used nt the
)Vips. Another like curio Is the llrst
door-bell that was used In Carbondale.
It has a large spiral spring, the at
tached bell being Jangled In a fashion
that would be ceitaln to startle the oc
cupants of the house. This bell was
iirted In the residence of J. W, Bum-
ham.
Another bell that will especially In
terest some of the old residents Is the
one that the late Alfred Darte used at
tho White Bridge school bouse to
gather the little band of scholars whom
he taught.
The old Northern bank at Dundaff.
the flist bank thnt was established In
this region, figures in the exhibit.
There are two bnnk notes issued by It,
one for J5, the other for $10. The notes
nre plninly engrnved. and printed In
black. There Is a blank line for the
name of the payee, or they were puy
able to bearer. A blank Is also left for
the date of the note.
Archlmld's Account Books.
The account books of the Dela,wnre
and Hudson road and the old gravity
are nn Interesting feature of the ex
hibit. The former Is a hand-ruled ac
count book, about the size of a medium-sized
ledger. The accounts are
those kept personally by James Arch
b.ild. On one side are the records of
the wages paid the men, the number
of tons they mined and the number of
weeks' board to be deducted. The ex
penditures are on the other side of
the account. The other book Is label
ed thus:
"Accounts and calculations of Car
