Samuel A. Weber spent his early life mostly in a village; was rather delicate and fonder of books than of sport; did no manual labor, but assisted in doing the home chores; when quite young he felt a distinct call to preach the Gospel, and his per- sonal inclination led to his combining a literary occupation with his preaching.
He was educated at Shelby (North Carolina) Male academy, Olin (North Carolina) high school, and at Wofford college, South Carolina, from which he was graduated A. B. in 1859, and which conferred the honorary degree of A. M. upon him in 1862. In 1892, Emory college, Georgia, honored him with the degree of D. D. The session following his graduation he began to teach in Cokesbury institute, South Carolina.
In 1862 he entered the ministry of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, and has been, altogether, a pastor for about twenty-five years. Since 1901 he has been assistant pastor of Trinity church, Yorkville, York county, South Carolina. From 1866 to 1876 he was a professor in Davenport, North Carolina, and Williamston, South Carolina, female colleges, and from 1878 to 1886 he was editor of the "Southern Christian Advocate,"

SAMUEL ADAMS WEBER
the official journal of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, published at that time in Charleston, South Carolina. In his tri-sided career he has always enjoyed the reputation of being an earnest, faithful, conscientious and successful worker, though he, in looking back over his life, has seemed inclined to the opinion that his success would have been greater had his efforts been more concentrated. He has modestly said: "I have done too many things to have done any one thing well"; but those who have known him and his work best do not accept that view of his career.
He was delegate to the Ecumenical conference on the cen- tenary of Methodism, Baltimore, Maryland, 1884, and to the quadrennial general conferences of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, 1886, 1894 and 1898, and has been a voluminous contributor to periodicals, religious and secular.
He has always been fond of history, especially as told in the biographies of the men who helped to make it; thinks the highest earthly factor in his career was his early married life; advises the young, as essentials to true success, to strive honestly to have a Christian conscience, a level head, a modest competency, to eat temperately and to abstain from tobacco and liquors that intoxicate. In politics he is and has always been a Democrat.
On November 20, 1861, he married Sarah Alston Langdon; and on December 27, 1889, Mrs. Camilla Jefferys, widow of Captain T. S. Jefferys, of Yorkville, South Carolina; three chil- dren have been born to them, all of whom are now (1907) living.
His address is Yorkville, York county, South Carolina.
LEONARD WALLER WHITE
W HITE, LEONARD WALLER, merchant, was born in Abbeville, South Carolina, July 7, 1843. His parents were John and Lucy White. His father was a mer- chant, a man who was noted for his honesty and fidelity, and who was held in high esteem by the people among whom he lived. His mother had fine qualities of mind and heart and she exerted a strong and an enduring influence upon the moral and intellec- tual life of her son.
As a boy Leonard White was strong and well. He enjoyed the sports and pastimes which were favorites with his companions and he also had a marked fondness for books, to which much of his spare time was given. Surrounded by the influences of a good home and fond parents, he spent his childhood and youth in a normal manner, steadily developing the powers of mind and body as a genuine American boy should, and he grew into man- hood in the healthful, quiet way that is always conducive to the best development.
His opportunities for education were such as the times and the established position of his family afforded. He did not have to struggle for an education; nor was he compelled to provide the means therefor himself. Up to the beginning of the War between the States he had as good opportunities for schooling, and improved them as well, as most boys of his age and social position. He was prepared for college at the schools in Abbeville, and more especially by the attention to his education received from his brother, Professor William Henry White, who was at that time principal of the Abbeville Male academy. In December, 1860, he entered the sophomore class at South Carolina college, in Columbia, but about this time the war began, and prevented the completion of his collegiate course. At the age of seventeen he became a soldier in the Confederate army, and followed the fortunes of the "Bonnie Blue Flag" during those four fearful years of sacrifice and slaughter which saw the South devastated and well-nigh destroyed. As a soldier he was faithful to every call of duty, and while he never received a commission, was pro- moted to the rank of sergeant. He was severely wounded at the

LEONARD WALLER WHITE
battle of Gaines Mill, having been shot through the body. When the war was over he returned to his home with the proud con- sciousness of having served his state and his country with sincere patriotism and unselfish devotion.
He had long cherished the ambition to become a lawyer, but as his college career had been closed by the war, and he had attained his majority, he felt that he could not afford to give the time that would be required to qualify him for this profession and then wait, perhaps for years, for satisfactory returns. Soon after peace was restored a good business opportunity opened in Abbeville. This he accepted, and for more than forty years he has been a merchant in the town in which he was born. His success in business has often caused his advice to be sought by others. That he is a wise counsellor where financial matters are concerned is shown by the fact that for twenty years he has held the position of vice-president of the Abbeville National bank. Although he has never held or sought political office, Mr. White has been deeply interested in public affairs, and has cheerfully served his community in minor positions without reward. He has taken especial interest in the cause of education, and in the capacity of trustee he labored for many years to improve the school system of his town.
In politics Mr. White has always been a Democrat. He is a Presbyterian. He is not a member of any secret society, but finds the center of attraction and the place for recreation in his own home. He was married, May 9, 1871, to Mary Helen Jones. Of their nine children, eight were living in 1907.
Mr. White owes much to the influences of home, but to a great degree his success is due to a strong determination to be independent and an earnest desire to be useful in every relation of life.
Since the above sketch was prepared for the printer, Mr. White died at his home in Abbeville on February 13, 1907.
THOMAS HENRY WHITE
W HITE, THOMAS HENRY, junior member of the banking firm of White Brothers, of Chester, South Carolina, and a director of the Spratt Building and Loan association and of the Carolina and North-Western railway, was born near Bullock's Creek, York county, South Carolina, on March 29, 1863. His father, Matthew White, was a merchant, who died (in 1864) while the son was still too young to be greatly influenced by the father's example. His mother, Mrs. Catherine (Westbrooks) White, watched over and guided his early boy- hood; but she, too, died while he was still a boy. His father's family trace their descent from John White, an emigrant from Ireland who settled near Chester in 1767.
In his boyhood he says he was "kept too busy to develop any special tastes or interests." He lived and worked on a farm thirteen miles west of Yorkville. He learned how to labor, regu- larly and systematically, while still a boy. His father left barely property enough to enable the son to get an education. After studying in the common schools, he completed his preparation for Erskine college at Due West, South Carolina, from which institution he was graduated in 1884.
In September of the same year he took a position as book- keeper for a mercantile establishment at Chester, retaining the place until 1890, when he became a bookkeeper in the Exchange bank, of Chester. From 1894 until 1902 he was cashier of the Exchange bank. Since January, 1902, he has been associated with his older brother in the banking firm of John G. and T. H. White, "White Brothers," of Chester, South Carolina.
Mr. White's business experience is such as to make his fellow- citizens desirous of his cooperation in business plans in which many are united in interest. He is a director of the Spratt Building and Loan association. He is a director of the Carolina and North-Western railway, of Chester, South Carolina. He is interested in all that promotes the welfare of his town and county.
Allied with the Democratic party, he has not swerved from allegiance to the men and measures advocated by that party.
435
THOMAS HENRY WHITE
He is a member of the Associate Reformed Presbyterian church. His favorite exercise and recreation he finds in horse- back riding.
He was married June 25, 1889, to Lula Carlisle, of Spartan- burg, South Carolina. Of their four children, three are living in 1907.
His address is Chester, South Carolina.
GEORGE W. WILLIAMS
W ILLIAMS, GEORGE W., banker, was born in Charles- ton, South Carolina, January 20, 1860, and is a direct descendant of Richard Williams, who came to America in 1636 from Glamorganshire, Wales, and settled in Taunton, Massachusetts, having purchased land from the Indians. In early life Mr. Williams attended the well-known school kept by Doctor Bruns in the city of Charleston, and subsequently the academy in the same city, conducted by Professor A. Sachtleben. After some years spent at Adams academy, Quincy, Massachusetts, in preparation for college, he entered Harvard university as a mem- ber of the class of 1882, but after remaining there for a year the condition of his eyesight forced him to leave college. He then went abroad and spent a year taking lectures, including a course in the University at Bonn on the Rhine, in Germany. In the fall of 1880 he returned to Charleston and entered into active business in connection with various enterprises in which his father, the distinguished banker, George W. Williams, Sr., was interested. He was elected a director, then cashier, and subse- quently vice-president, of the Carolina Savings bank, of Charles- ton, and at the death of his father, in 1903, he was elected to the presidency of the bank, in succession to his father, which position he now (1907) holds. Mr. Williams served as alderman of the city of Charleston for one term during the administration of Mayor John F. Ficken, and for two terms during the admin- istration of Mayor J. Adger Smyth. He has been for many years a member of the board of trustees of the William Enston home and of the board of commissioners of the Charleston Orphan house. The work of caring for dependent orphans has interested Mr. Williams more deeply than any other duty in public life.
In 1883 he married Margaret Adger. They have five chil- dren-three girls (one of whom is married) and two boys. Mr. Williams' parents were Methodists and he has long been a mem- ber of that church. He divides his vacation periods as nearly as possible between the seashore and the mountains. His life work may be said to lie in Charleston, but he has a farm in
437
GEORGE W. WILLIAMS
Northeast Georgia, which affords him the rest most needful for a business man. He is also fond of travel, and has been three times to Europe, besides visiting various parts of this country and Canada. Mr. Williams is among the most enterprising and substantial citizens of Charleston and has never failed to respond to all public calls that have been made upon him in which the welfare of his native city and state are concerned.
His postoffice address is 15 Meeting street, Charleston, South Carolina.

JOHN OWENS WILLSON
W ILLSON, JOHN OWENS, D. D., president of Lander college, in early manhood attorney-at-law, then min- ister of the Gospel in the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, was born at Cedar Grove plantation, Berkeley county, South Carolina, January 27, 1845. His father, Dr. John Willson, was a planter and physician and for many years representative and senator from St. James, Goose Creek parish,-a man still remembered for his faithfulness in public and private trusts, his kindness to his slaves and his charity to all people. Dr. Willson married Miss Sarah Elizabeth Owens, whose influence on her children was deep and abiding.
John Owens Willson was the second child and oldest son of his parents. His boyhood was spent on a cotton plantation, where he was encouraged to engage in outdoor exercises, but not to labor on the farm. His education began in the "good old neighborhood schools," continued at King's Mountain Military academy, the Arsenal, and Citadel academy. He left the last- named school to enter the Confederate army in June, 1862, and served first in Company F, Aiken's regiment of cavalry, and then in Company I of the Third South Carolina cavalry. In 1865 and 1866 he studied law and was admitted to the bar, November, 1866. After a year at Kingstree and a few months at Florence, he located at Marion, as partner first of Gen. W. W. Harllee, and then of Hon. C. D. Evans.
In 1873 he was convinced that he had a call to preach, and in December he entered the South Carolina conference, Methodist Episcopal Church, South. He was pastor of churches until 1889, when he was appointed presiding elder and so served five years. In December, 1894, he was elected editor of the "Southern Chris- tian Advocate," and was reelected in 1897 for a term of four years. In 1902 he labored at Abbeville; 1903-04, he was in Cokesbury district, and since July 26, 1904, he has been president of Lander college for women. Wofford college gave him the degree of Doctor of Divinity in 1896.

to the Ecumenical Conference of Methodists, held in London, England, 1901; and a commissioner on joint commission of Northern and Southern Methodism to make a common order of worship and to prepare standard catechisms for both churches. He was a pastor in Charleston, South Carolina, and was sent North as collector for the injured church buildings of Southern and Northern Methodists.

To the young he commends "patient preparation for life, not so much in special lines as in what all vocations demand; fixed purpose to preserve personal integrity; cultivation of genuine interest in our fellow-men; and faith in God."
His address is Greenwood, South Carolina.
HUGH WILSON
W ILSON, HUGH, editor and publisher of the "Abbeville Press and Banner," was born in Laurens county, November 1, 1838. His father, Hugh Wilson, was a millwright of noted mechanical skill. His grandfather, also named Hugh Wilson, came to Charleston from Scotland in 1882. After living for a time in Newberry he finally settled in Laurens, where with two others he built a small cotton mill, which was burned in 1830. His mother was Mary Godfrey Wilson.
Hugh Wilson was a sturdy boy. Though he lived in the country until he was twelve years old, he evinced a marked inclination for all things mechanical. When only thirteen he became an apprentice in the office of the "Due West Telescope," now the "Associate Reformed Presbyterian" at Due West, where, though having but a primary school education, he learned to set type, thus following his grandmother's wishes, for it was her desire that he become a printer. Hugh Wilson was ambitious, determined to become a successful printer. In 1859 he bought an interest in the Abbeville "Press and Banner," the paper that he now edits. In 1904 he sold the paper to W. W. and W. R. Bradley, but he takes the same interest in its success as he did while he was its owner. Journalism has been his life work. Though he has never held public office, he has always taken an active interest in the material development of the town in which he lives. For the last twenty years he has been identified with every enterprise having for its object the improvement of Abbe- ville. He has been director in the Abbeville Cotton mill and a director in the Abbeville warehouse. He takes stock in each worthy enterprise, and after it is well established sells out to reinvest his money in another new one. He has been a member of the Abbeville Literary club since its organization twenty- eight years ago. At one time he was a member of Clinton lodge, No. 3, F. A. A. M., but he has now demitted. As a young man he was an active member of several temperance societies. He is a contributary member of the State Press association, and for one year was elected its president, an honor he holds as the

highest that was ever bestowed upon him. He is a Democrat, and although he has often criticised his own party and always regards it his public duty to vote for the best man available, he has ever maintained his party allegiance. He believes that the state should insure the lives and property of its citizens at the usual rates, and that by this means it would secure a revenue sufficient to meet the entire expense of the government. In the great trial of strength between the North and South, Private Hugh Wilson rendered faithful service in the Western army of the Confederacy. He was wounded at the battle of Chickamauga.
In speaking of his relations to the social world, Mr. Wilson says: "My greatest social distinction is that I am no kin to John C. Calhoun or any other great Irishman." Asked to discuss the partial failures of his life, he declares: "I failed to win the affections of the first girl I courted as I did those of others. The greatest misfortune of my life is that I failed to marry. All men should marry. The man who marries may possibly make a mistake, but the man who stays single is sure to make a mistake. An old man without family ties is lonely indeed." As advice to young men who desire to lead useful and successful lives he says: "Honesty in men, like virtue in women, is more to be prized than all else. There is always a demand and a place for honest young men-men who would not sacrifice principle or character for gain. More men fail because of lack of fidelity than for any other reason."
Mr. Wilson is identified with the Associate Reformed Pres- byterian church.
His address is Abbeville, South Carolina.
WILLIAM BLACKBURN WILSON
W ILSON, WILLIAM BLACKBURN, lawyer and legislator, was born January 12, 1850, in Yorkville, York county, South Carolina. His father, William Blackburn Wilson, lawyer, member of state legislature before and after the War between the States, and of the South Carolina secession convention, was scholarly, cultured, confiding and reli- gious, a typical old-school gentleman ; his mother, Arrah Minerva (Lowry) Wilson, a refined and highly cultured woman of unusu- ally strong character, was a potent and lasting influence on all sides of his life. His blood is English, Irish and Scotch, repre- sented on the paternal side by the Wilson and Stanyarne families. from England, who settled in lower South Carolina in colonial days, and on the maternal side by the Lowry, McLure and Gaston families from Scotland and Ireland, who settled in upper South Carolina long prior to the War of the Revolution; his great- grandfather, George Blackburn, descendant of generations of family lawyers in the old country, came to America from Dublin university, and was professor of mathematics and astronomy in William and Mary college, Williamsburg, Virginia, and in South Carolina college, Columbia.
W. B. Wilson spent his early life in his birthplace; was healthy, strong and vigorous, and in school and college took an active and prominent part in all kinds of athletics. He was always ambitious, and stood high in his classes. His primary education was obtained in the Yorkville private schools of Doctor Robert Lathan and William Currell, and he prepared for college in the King's Mountain Military school, Colonel Asbury Coward principal. Thence he went to South Carolina college, where he was graduated A. B. in 1869. His own preference and the wishes of his parents coinciding, he took up the study of law in his father's office, and was admitted to the bar January 14, 1871. He at once began practice in Yorkville, in copartnership with his father, under the firm name of Wilson & Wilson, where he con- tinued successfully until 1876, with the exception of two years' absence in Texas on account of his connection with the Ku Klux and the Federal prosecution of the members of that patriotic

WILLIAM BLACKBURN WILSON
order in 1871-1873. In 1876 he removed to Rock Hill, in the same county, where he has enjoyed one of the largest practices in the state and acquired extensive business interests.
He has been active in politics as an unchangeable Democrat; was a member of the South Carolina house of representatives, 1884-1888; of the state senate, 1888-1892, and of the Constitu- tional convention of 1895, and made a highly creditable record. As a business man he has been conspicuously progressive and a leading participant in all movements for the improvement of the town. He is president of the Rock Hill Land and Town Site company, of the Rock Hill Street Railway company, and of the Carolina-Cuba company ; also a life trustee of the graded schools. He is a member of the Protestant Episcopal church, the Knights of Pythias, the Piedmont club, Phi Kappa Psi college fraternity, and is a Mason.
The potent influences in his life have been, in the order named: his wife, home, contact with men in active life, school, private study and early companionship. His most enjoyable and helpful recreations are driving and farming. As a man he is approachable, genial and popular.
On December 29, 1875, he married Isabella Hinton Miller (daughter of Doctor William R. Miller, of Raleigh, North Caro- lina), a woman of unusual personal attraction and strength of character, a member of the Colonial Dames of her native state and an active force in church and society. Of their ten children, all are now (1907) living. The oldest son, W. B. Wilson, Jr., is in partnership with his father in the practice of law.
The address of Mr. Wilson is Rock Hill, York county, South Carolina.
CHARLES ALBERT WOODS
W OODS, CHARLES ALBERT, LL. D., associate justice of the supreme court of his native state, was born in Darlington, Darlington county, South Carolina, July 31, 1852. His father, Alexander Samuel Woods, merchant, was widely known and esteemed for his marked business and personal integrity; his mother, Martha Jane DuBose, a woman noted for her refinement and accomplishments, deeply impressed his early life. The family was founded on the paternal side, in America, by Frame Woods, from the north of Ireland, who settled in Dar- lington county, South Carolina, about 1770; on the maternal side by Isaac DuBose, from Dieppe, France, who settled in lower South Carolina a century earlier, about 1665.
His early life was spent on a farm near Darlington. His early education was obtained at the village school in Darlington. In 1869 he went to Wofford college, from which he was graduated A. B. in 1872. In 1904, as a recognition of his eminent career, his alma mater honored him with the degree of LL. D.
Like so many other distinguished Americans, he began his working career as a teacher. His first service in this direction was at Wesley Chapel school, in Darlington county, in 1873. While teaching he took up the study of law, which he pursued with all the natural enthusiasm of his Irish-French blood. He soon abandoned teaching for the law, but he has never lost interest in educational work. With his qualifications, added to a pleasing personality, his law practice soon became large and lucrative. Incidentally his practice of law demonstrated in a marked degree his ability as a financier, and he was made president of the Bank of Marion, at Marion, South Carolina, a position he has filled for years with credit to himself and profit to the bank.
Although not a politician, in the ordinary sense of the word, he has been actively identified with the Democratic party since he was old enough to cast his first vote, but the only official posi- tion he has ever held is that of associate justice of the supreme court of South Carolina, which he assumed January 28, 1903, and still (1907) holds. No member of the court has a higher standing with the bar and people of the state. He is and has long been a

consistent and active member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South.
On December 20, 1884, he married Salley Jones Wannamaker, daughter of J. J. and Mary K. Wannamaker, of Orangeburg county.
His address is Marion, South Carolina.
