One harness maker, a Mr.. Vaughn

those days were very scare, only one
small clothing store in the town
and a very small assortment kept
by Jesse 7. Poole. Mrs. Jane Payn-
ter was kept very busy all the time
/ making clothing for the men and
boys by hand. There were no sew

the first machine in the town was
bought by Cornelius T. Burton; he
paid one hundred dollars for it. 1t
was Singer machine.
An old negro woman by the name
of Hannah Noah Burton, kept a
place over the bridge as you went
to the beach, the place was called
"NOah's Ark" She kept ginger beer,
ginger cake, pies and oyster stews.
For ten cents you could get a large
oyster stew and crackers.
At the bottom of "Pilottown" liv-
ed two old colOred people, John
Parker and his wife. Sina, who sold
oysters. John would go to Broad
kill Greek and catch them with
long handle rake. The young men
would often take their girls there
and have a big oyster supper and
then dance, as the old cOlored
woman had a large front room in
her house. The music was a mouth
organ; one or two of the young men
could play, so the young people had
a good time in Lewes in those days.
Mrs. Margaret Morris house was
always open for the young people to
meet She had-four children and her
house was the place for good times.
Later James Beebe opened an ice
cream place in his side yard; he had
about six OF eight stalls built that
would seat four at a table He made
his own cream and in the summer
he did a big business; for it was
fun to go there and get in one Of
those stalls with the girls.
There was an old lady in the
town named LepsOn, who always

She lived on Second street in a
