There are many historic spots
around Wilmington. A gentleman
pointed out near Wrightsville Sound
little hammock called Money Island,
where Capt. Kidd is supposed to have
buried some of his numerous treasures.
and assured me that there was not an
inch of the soil that had not been
turned up in the search for it. There
does not seem to be any authority for
the statement that Capt. Kidd buried
his treasure here, but it is historical
that in 1740 number of Spanish pri-
vateers landed on the coast herea-
abouts and raised Cain with the in
habitants. One of the vessels was
wrecked, and an Ecce Homo taken
from it is still preserved in St. James
Episcopal Church, which is said to
have been originally built by the aid
of the spoils captured from the priva-
teers.
In 1893 there were sixty household
ers in Wilmington whose property ag-
gregated 96'625. There were no Jay
Goulds among them. In 1862 the
population numbered 1,OOO In 1854
the first newspaper was published in
the town. 1t was called the Gazette.
Wilmington, of course, had hand
in the Mecklenburg declaration of in
dependence, and, of course, went
through the usual revolutionary pro-
cess of boarding British man -of-war
and destroying tea and stamped paper
and other contra band articles. Will
mington also went through the Revo-
lutionary war with a varying success.
| Lord CORVALLIS was here, and the
house in which he established his
headquarters is still pointed out on
the corner of Third and Markets
streets. know that CORVALLIS had
his headquarters here, for l saw
the house myself, and a very hand
| some structure it is too.
Up to the breaking out of the late
unpleasantness the town throve apace
with other Southern cities. There
were the rich rice planters and the
rich siave-owners, and the place be-
came an important seaport. The State
was not behind her sister States in
flying to arms. Col. John L. Cant
well, who looks as young and hand
some as he did half century ago,
when in the ranks of the Palmetto
Regiment he carried the Stars and
Stripes over the bloody fields of Buena
Vista, commanded at the breaking out
| of the late war the 30th regiment of
| North Carolina militia. On the 18th
of April, 1861, Col Cantwell and the
militia. consisting of the Wilmington
Light Infantry, Capt. w. L. DeRos-
set; the German Volunteers, Capt
c. Cornhelson; the Wilmington Rife
/ Guards, Capt. o. P. Mears, and the
Cape Fear Light Artillery, Capt j.
,, Hedrick, captured Forts Caswell and
Johnston, at the Mouth of the Cape
Fear River.
1t is useless to recall the dark and
! dreary days of the four years succeed
ing that event. Wilmington, like her
sister cities, gave her best energies to
the cause, and like many of her sister
cities came out of the struggle bap-
tized in blood and fire Then COM
menced the work of rebuilding waste
places and reconstructing lost for
tunes, the dreary struggle for bread,
and the subsequent struggle for the
supremacy of white civilization.
Wilmington was Incorporated as a
city in 1866, and Mr.. A. II. Van
Bokkelen was its first mayor.

miles from the present site of the city
and named the settlement Charlestown.
But it appears that the place did not
suit them, and a few years afterwards
Sir, John and most of the colonists re-
moved first to Port Royal and subse-
quently to the point at the junction of
the Cooper and Ashley River, which
is now occupied by Charleston. Those
of Sir Johns compatriots who remain
ed behind founded the town of Bruins
wick, about six miles below the North
Carolina '4Charlestown," and In 1928,
being reinforced by number of set
tiers who left Massachusetts in disgust
with the Blue laws of the Puritan
fathers, abandoned Brunswick and
settled at the point now occupied by
Wilmington. The date of Whining
tons birth is therefore set down by the
local historians at 1870. The early

Wllmingtonlans seem to have
had considerable difficulty in
settling upon name for their
town, for they first called it
"New Liverpool" and then
Newton" and finally in 1879
settled upon its present name
in compliment to Spence
Compton, Baron Wilmington,
who appears to have been a
kind of blue-b.ooded friend
of Governor Gabriel John
ston. The new town of Will
mington soon surpassed Bruins
wick, which gradually fell to
pieces and was finally aband-
oned. Fort Anderson, of
Confederate fame, occupies
the site, and during the late
unpleasantness received con-
siderable attention from the
blockading squadron.
