The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1896-09-30

There is one man in Anderson who
runs truck farm in Florida and sells
his own goods. Everybody knows
that Mr.. James F. FAINT sells the finest
fruits that can be found anywhere,
but all of them do not know that his
fine oranges are raised Oh his own
farm.
Mr.. FAINT was born in Marion Coun
ty, Florida, in 1866. He is the son
of Mr.. Valentine Fant, who moved
from Anderson county to Florida just
before the war. Young FAINT spent
his early life in Florida, and, in fact,
remained there until 1889, when he
came to Anderson. He had been in
business for a long time before leav-
ing Florida, and had been very sue
cessful. Since opening bnusiness in
this city he has met with even great
er success than he did in Florida.
What he has made here has been by
hard work.
Mr.. FAINT handles large supply of
fruits and vegetables shipped mostly
from his plantation. He carries 4
nice line OF confcctioncries, tobacco,
cigars and family groceries. He also
handles fish and oysters in season.
He is agentfor the Anderson Ice Com.
pany and sells great deal Of ice dur
Inc the summer months.
Mr.. Fants owns a fine plantation in
extensive truck farm and orange
grove. The stuff that he keeps here
is shipped from his farm, and by that
means Mr.. FAINT knows that he gets
the best on the market. He does
both Wholesale and retail business
in oranges, the grove in Florida
bringing in to him large returns every
year. Mr.. FAINT enjoys a large and lu-
crativc trade in this city, where, by
close attention to the wants OF the
people, he has won Il ma jor share OF
the fruit aud confectionery trade. lie
is at all times courteous to his custo-
mers. and will not sell them anything
! but the best.
Mr.. FAINT was married in 1888 to
Miss Essic Sassard, of Florida: and is
the father of three children.
Mr.. FAINT is progressive citizen and
uses his influence at all times to ad-
vance the interest and prosperity Of

finest drug establishment in the city.
Mr.. Evans was born in 1868 in An
dcrson, and in 1888 he entered the
drug business as clerk for Orr &
Sloan. He was small lad at this
time, but it was not very long before
he was rapidly progressing and win.
ming the confidence and esteem of
those for whom he worked. Mr..
Evans remained with Orr & Sloan un
til 1898, when the Evans Pharmacy
was established. DR.. j. c. Harris
and Mr.. j. NJ. Evans constitute the
remaining members Of the firm. }
VI. Evans entered the drug store OF
McsSrS. Orr & Sloan in 1889 and re-
manned there until the present firm
was established.
George Evans was given license by
the State Board of Medical Examiners
in 1887. 1t was said at that time that
he passed one of the best examina-
ton that that body had ever seen.
The Evans Pharmacy is located in
the Hotel Chiquola block. at one Of
the most desirable stands in the city.
1t is handsomely fitted up with all the
modern convenicnccS used in the drug
gist's line and by close attention to
business the firm has been able to
command very large share of the
trade in the city Besides, the many
small towns around Anderson are sup
piled to great extent from this
house. This is a proof that the prices
charged for goods are very low, as the
druggists in this section can buy from
the Pharmacy and then sell with Il
reasonable profit to themselves.
Strict attention is given to the drug
trade. Every article purchased in
this line is of the best quality and al
ways guaranteed Inks, oils, varnish-
es, cigars and tobacco are kept in
large quantities. and the sales Of these
during a year amounts to a great deal.
They make a specially of prescripss
tions, Mr.. Evans, who has had con-
siderable experience in this line, per-
sonally experimenting the work.
The store inside, as well as on the
exterior. is one of the most handsome
in the city. 1t is kept in splendid
condition. and is great resort for la
dies in the summer months who want
the very best cold drinks from their
magnificent fountain This depart
ment receives much attention, and the
drinks at the Evans Pharmacy are very
popular all over the city.

niture establishment, equal to any

The four floors are all occupied. He
carries the finest line Of furniture, not
excelled by the best stock in the lar
gest cities. He has built up very
extensive trade all over upper South
Carolina, and when once he gets Il
customer it is customer for life.
Mayor Tolly is one Of the most pop
lar men in Anderson, which can be
seen by his frequent elections to the
position of Mayor
He was elected again in August,
1896. to serve for two more years.

Mr.. L. +. Seybt. dealer in dry goods,
notions, shoes, millinery and other
articles of that trade, was born at
Cokesbury, Abbeville County, June
+, 1861. He spent his early life at
that place attending the country
schools and learning to some extent
the business which he was to follow.
In 1881 he came to Anderson and Sc
cured 4 pnSition with ". \. Chapman
and remained with him for six years.
During that time his work was of the
hest kind and he gave perfect salts
faction. He also gained considerable
experience in this line. and when he
left was master Of his trade.
In February, 1888, Mr.. Seybt went
into the firm Of Crayton. jones 4; Seybt
and remained in that partnership for
some time, but at the present time is
in business by himself He has by
hard work built upa large trade and
won the confidence aud respect of the
people in and around Anderson. He
has always made it a point to give his
customers the very best goods for the
smallest amount of money. and by
honest dealings coupled to this he has
amassed considerable business in this
section.
Mr. Scbyt carries a general stock of
dry goods, notions, shoes, carpets. rugs,
and in fact everything that one could
call for in an establishment of this
kind. The millinery department is
complete and is presided over by
competent ladies, who throughly un-
derstand that business.
In the spring ard fall of each year
this department is exceedingly popular
with the ladies' Of Anderson and the
surrounding towns. He frequently
gets mail orders from distant towns
for goods, and none of these have ever
been known to come back to him. All
who have had dealings at this store
know that when Mr.. Seybt recon-
mcnds an article to be first class that
it certainly will be found to be just
like he said it was.
He carries big line of ladies' fine
shoes, Of ali styles and makes, and
these 60 at rock bottom prices. Mr..
Seybt goes to the Northern markets
himself and buys such goods as he
knows will suit the Anderson people.
He pays cash and gets some fine bar
gains in this way, and is therefore en-
abled> to offer special inducements to
his customers. He is a fine Judge of
dress goods, and the other things he
keeps in stock.
The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1896-09-30

Mr.. James Albert Brock, President
of the Bank of Anderson, was the
second son of the late Mr.. - Brock,
and was born at Honea Path, in this
county. He received his early educa-
tion and training at the schools in this
State and made rapid advances III
every department. At an early age
he embarked into the mercantile busi-
ness, and his first venture proved a
great success. Some time later, how
ever, he was offered the position of
Auditor of the Columbia & Greenville
Railroad, now a branch of the South
ern system, and held that office for
some time, proving to be eminently
qualified for all the duties connected
with that position. At that time the
road was not on a very firm basis
financially, and much of the credit of
its later snccess is due to the unfailing
labors of NIr. Brock.
When the National Bank of Ander-
son was organized, in 1872, Mr.. Brock
was unanimously elected cashier,
which was his first work in bank.
Under his able management, this in
stitution had remarkable success,
attaining third rank among the banks
of the South as to book value Of its
stock. Mr.. Brock continued in the
office of cashier until the bank went
into voluntary liquidation in 1891.
when he was unanimously elected
President and still holds that position.
He is also President of the Ander-
son Cotton Mills and of the Anderson
Oil and Fertilizer Company He is
connected with almost every enterprise
in the city Of Anderson, and is di-
rector of the Port Royal and Western
Carolina Railway company.
Few men have had a brig hter career,
and which, too, was based on their
own merits, than j. A. Brock. He
began life as merchant on very
small scale, but by his close attention
to business and his fine business
qualities, he rapidly forged himself to
the front, and in this respect to-day is
one Of the leaders in South Carolina.
His business career has been marked
with unusual activity and success,
and his life characterized by integrity
and usefulness in a prominent degree,
in every sphere of duty-his church.
of which he is an active and official
member, not excepted.
Mr.. Brock has won for himself the
confidence and esteem Of every citizen
of Anderson, and no man has taken
more interest in the welfare and up
building of the city than himself.
This has been one of the means of his
great success, and what he has done
has been without any outside help.

WILL r. HUBBARD.

Mr.. Will. II. Hubbard, proprietor
of one of the largest jewelry estab-
lishments in the upper part of South
Carolina, and who has for g number OF
years been prominent young citizen
of Anderson. was born in October,
1864. At the age Of fourteen he
went into the jewelry business with
his brother, and they began to do gen
eral repairing on an exceedingly small
scale. The business increased rapid
ly, and it was not long until a small
stock was added to the shop where
they were doing repair work. They
formed a partnership under the firm
name of John NJ. Hubbard & Brot ther.
They continued in business until
1892. when the firm was dissolved and
Mr.. Will Hubbard continued business
at the old stand. Mr.. John NJ. Hub,
bard then established his jewelry stor .
in the Hotel Chiquola block. =
The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1896-09-30

The store of W. r. Hubbard is to-
day one of the prettiest establish
ments of the kind in the State. Ev-
erything is arranged in order, and
there is nothing to detract from the
general appearance of the building.
He now carries a stock of goods e>ti-
mated at $40, 900, and he is gradually
adding to this every year. Every ar.
ticle in the jewelry line that one could
call for is in this store, and OF the
best quality are guaranteed. Watches,
silverware, clocks, china, novelties:
glassware, spectacles, gold headed
canes, and hundreds of other things.
Much attention is paid to the depart
ment of spectacles, and care is taken
that all glasses fitted shall be suitable
in every respect to the wearer.
The repair feature of the business
adds considerable each year to the in
come of the establishment. Mr.. Hub
bard is practical workman, under
standing all the intricate work about
watches and other pieces of jewelry,
and all the work turned cut from his
store is guaranteed to last.
He also makes speciality OF we'd
ding and engagement rings. The en-,
craving in rings and other work is all
done by Mr.. Hubbard, and will COM
pare favorably with that to be found
in any establishment. Mr.: Hub
bard business is not confined to the
city and county alone, but to all the
neighboring towns and cities in the
upper part of the State, He pays
close attention to orders by mail,
which are all filled promptly and give
entire satisfaction.
Mr.. Hubbard was awarded the con-
tract to furnish all of The silver ware
for Clemson College. There we're a
number of Atlanta and other large
firms competing, but his work was con-
sidered the best and cheapest, so he
was given the contract. He also fur
nished nine medals for the recent Gra-
dcd School Commencement.
Mr.. Hubbard is practical business
man who owns what he does to-day by
hard and diligent work, and he is
among those. who believe in advcrtis-
ing as the best paying investment of
the day.

latter death in 1888. AIr. Clark then
took complete charge of the business
and has run it ever since.
There is, perhaps, no better tailor

that Of MIR. Clarke's. He is an cxpc-
rienced man in this department. and
spent two years in New York, where
he took special course in cutting

ture of the business. and all the work
that he turns out Of his establishment

goods are all up to-datc.
Mr.. Clarke $ business is now in
fine operation. and he has met with
great success since beginning work in
Anderson. He is known to be rcli-
able tailor, and, for that reason, has
had at some times more work than he
could possibly get through with. He
keeps full line of samples and also
piece goods. The latter has been on
a small scale. but he vii add to this
department. and can make up suit Of
clothes at short notice.
His establishment is in the White
building, on the cast side Of the pub

ton until the fall Of 1892, when he
resigned to accept the position as
assistant cashier in the State Saving

which afterwards became the National
Bank of Anderson. Mr.. Mauldin
continued to hold this place until the
