The music drifts down Deer Creek from Kitty Taylor's to the Pine Street Suspension Bridge. Draped over the railing listening to the rinky-dink piano are some very proper NC ladies from the town's better homes and gardens. They know that soon the piano _ playing will stop, the piano player will pick up the latest rag time sheet music from SF, join the proper young ladies waitting on Suspension Bridge and be gaily off toa Piety Hill home for more rag time music playing. The talented young pianist is Mike Hyman, son of the pioneer NC merchant. It was Wilson Mizner who said that a true man of distinction was one whowas always welcome.in.the best-homes and houses. Mike Hyman was such a musical gentleman. There was no stigma that he played for girls andthe ladies in different parts OF TOWN ack. THE MUSIC DRIFTED DOWN DEER . CREEK Picture from Lew Wanamake Collection The Pine Street Suspension Bridge . However, those are not young ladies on the bridge but members of the SF Bicycle Team. Thebad of Spring Street was twice destroyed by firethe good of Spring Street survives to this very day the first Baptist Church, now the Eddie Powell residence. Spring, with its view over Piety Hill, was noted for its excellent residences all destroyed in a series of disastrous fires. Minerva Lester Powers, the famous beauty who died but two years ago, used to excitingly describe the Spring Street of her youth. She was the grandaughter of Zeno Philosopher Davis, who built part of the National Hotel. As achild she used to pump the bellows for the forge used by Lester Pelton in the construction of his world famous Pelton water wheel. This experimenting and wheel manufacturing in the basement of Grandpa Davis’ gun shop in the alley down Spring called Cabin Street. Grandpa Davis donated the land and $500 in 1855 to start the first Baptist Church. And when the fires came and other churches were destroyed the Baptists said to one and all our church still stands it is for all to use as a place of worship. Minnie Davis was delighted when Pelton at last perfected his wheel and used one of the first to replace the bellows for the need air in the forge and Minnie became happily unemployed. Allan Foundry still stands on Spring, but No. 90 Spring, the residence of Henry Plumer was destroyed. History repeats and to-day the good remains the bad is gone. Kitty. Taylor ? Alone at last she sleeps in the pauper's field in Pine Grove Cemetery. One kindly gentleman passed the hat. for donations so she could be buried inacommon pine box. And six others volunteeredto carry and lower her into her finalresting place. But death and time are the great common denominators. The fine caskets and monuments of her patrons in more select parts of Pine Grove will crumble intocommon dust just as surely as Kitty in her pine box.
