OUR OLDEST JEwELER.
The Sentinel Reporter has
Picked up some Items
CONCERNING w. T. voGLER.

CONCERNING w. t. VOGLER.
We may very properly begin this
article upon the Oldest jeweler of
Winston by saying that Mr.. Vogler
is not only a descendent of one of
the oldest families of Salem but that
the name oil Vogler has been asso-
ciated with the jewelry trade of this
section ever since the beginning of
this century. John Vogler, cousin
of w. t. Vogler's father, was the
founder of this line of business in
Salem--many of our readers can
readily call to mind the venerable
old gentleman, who died not many
years ago at the advanced age ofo7.
w. T. Vogler's father was the
gunsmitt Of Salem, and is also well
remembered. When the war closed
Mr.. Vogler began learning the
watchmaker's trade with T. Line
back & Sons, of Salem. but not long
after he entered the employ Of his
kinsnlan, E. A. Vogler, anfthe fact

tuition. not of Winston only, but OF
the entire tobacco growing sections
of North Carolina and Virginia.
Browns Warehouse was origin
ally opened in Februarvs 1872, thc
building being ii somewhat rough
frame structure upon 4th street.
1t was the first warehouse proper
Of Winston, though, as Il matter of
fact, Maj. Brown had for some time
before held sales in stable upon
Liberty street, which he had ex
temporized into warehouse. OF
course the indications at this time
did not point to much of a trade in
the immediate future. The ice was
broken, however, and Bob =
Mosely (as he was familiarly called
in the role of auctioneer at Winston S
first warehouse. proved an able CO.
worker with Major Brown, his ems
ployer.
Some sever or eight years ago
the firm of Brown & Carter was
formed, the CO partners being Maj.
t. J. Brown and w. B. Carter, il.
As their business increased they
felt the urgent need Of larger and
better warehouse facilities, and SO
they began the erecting the new
warehouse, upon Main street, and
of which possession was taken about
