MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii John, Evidently the Beards were in the confection and bakery business. Mr. Scott first mentions one, Capt. Henry Beard, in his description of businesses in Columbia in the early 1820's, which changed hands in the years following. This is what he writes "Crossing Lady Street,we find on the North a boarding house by James Cammer, from Charleston, which afterwards passed into the hands of George Shiell, and still later was kept as a confectionery and cigar store by Capt. Henry Beard." The second Beard he mentions is Thomas Beard. "Off of Main Street there were no stores that I remember. On the South side of Camden Street, Thomas Beard,the ancestor of the large and respectable family that bear his name, had a baker shop. He attained a great age, and in his last years became quite deaf and partially insane, but, being harmless, was allowed to go at large." In Oct. 1862 the Central Association for Relief of South Carolina Soldiers was formed in Columbia. They supplied the wants of the troops, within their means. Scott mention a few of the ones who worked with this group, including John Beard. "The Rev Mr. Martin and Mr.Leiding superintended the packing and shipping department with the assistance, occasionally of John Beard." They took charge of the goods that were going with the trains to their respective destinations. Mr Scott, when he wrote this book,in 1884, had a remarkable memory for detail and evidently a great love of history. Blanche ------End forward message---------------------------
