Charles Town was first laid out in 1 672, and a large
lot at the southeast corner of Broad and Church (sub-
sequently Meeting) streets was reserved for a church.
Upon this lot the first St. Philip's Church was erected
about 1 683. But there were probably interments made
on this lot even before the first church was erected, for
after the earthquake of 1886, while some workmen
were repairing the foundations of the present church,
they discovered a cedar coffin, with the date 1 678 and
the initials J. O. B. studded on the lid with brass tacks.
In 1711 a new church was commenced upon the site
occupied by the present St. Philip's, and this church
having been completed and occupied by the year 1 727,
the old church was in this latter year taken down, but
the lot continued to be used as a burying-ground.
The Act for establishing St. Michael's Parish was
passed June 14, 1 75 1 , and the church was commenced
in 1 752, upon the site of the first St. Philip's.
I wish to express my appreciation of the
assistance given by Mr. A. S. Salley, Jr., in
the publication of this book, and to thank all
who have helped with it in any way, or have
shown a kindly interest in my work.

Aged 22.
Of all thy kindred at thy dying day
Were none to speed thee on thy solemn way;
Yet ever lives distinct and deeply dear
Their sight with them of this thy corner here ;
Each heart so oft hath come and sought and seen
That Ocean space hath shrunk to naught between.
And more their own seems now the stranger's shore
Than when with thee they dweh on it before.
Since God doth early break the golden bowl.
And loose the silver cord that links the soul
To earth, His will be done. Oh, may he rise
A chosen vessel to a heavenly prize.

While an Infant she was baptized
in the Episcopal Church;
And at the age of Fourteen received the

Her only hope, for Salvation, was in the
blood of atonement.
In the last scenes of her life. She afforded an
example to the young and to the Aged.
When she expired, it was in the attitude of
Prayer, And without a struggle or a groan.
As Angels exulting wafted her soul to Heaven
So her Friends cheerfully consigned
her body to the Tomb ;
Confident that thus sown in
weakness and corruption
Would be raised at the last day, in
incurruption, and Glory;
Through Jesus Christ, our Lord.

Beneath this Marble,
the too perishable Monument of a Widow's Love,
are deposited the bones and ashes
of ROBERT Y. HAYNE.
No sculptured stone is needed to perpetuate
the memory of this illustrious name.
The Archives of his Country
are ennobled by his Honors,
and his public services are stamped
for Immortality
Upon the face of his native state,
and upon the Institutions of the Union,
It is the smitten Heart
that would would relieve its anguish
by this record of his rare virtues,
his real nobleness, his incomparable excellence.
That heart alone can know how far
The Wisdom of the Statesman, the eloquence of the Senator,
and the courage of the Hero
were transcended by those sublimer qualities
which made him the Idol of his Wife,
the Pattern of his Children
the guide of his Friends,
the honest, incorruptible Patriot,
The Wisdom which counselled Nations, ruled his Home,
The Tongue which swayed the People, charmed his Fireside,
The Heart which nerved a state, allured his Household,
His Widow and his Children
could find no consolation in his loss
save in the humble hope
that they have given him up to that God
who is the Father of the Fatherless

No son of South Carolina
Was ever more cherished by his noble Mother
Than the subject of this memorial.
Her honors were heaped upon him in early
and rapid succession.
Elected at his majority to her House of Representatives
He soon became its Speaker;
And was thence transferred to the responsible
station of Attorney General.
When just old enough to claim his seat.
He was chosen to represent Her
In the Senate of the Union.
Having eloquently vindicated her Principles,
In her moment of extreme peril,
She entrusted her Honor to his keeping,
laying upon his shoulders
the burden of her Government.
No sooner was the sword sheathed
than she summoned him to advocate the interest
of her Agriculture and Commerce.
In the fulfillment of these trusts
He sacrificed his Life
having lived long enough for his own fame :
having died too soon for his Country's good.

JURIST. ORATOR, STATESMAN, PATRIOT.
Future times will hardly know how great a life
This simple stone commemorates, —
The tradition of his Eloquence, his
Wisdom and Wit may fade;
But he lived for ends more durable than fame.
His eloquence was the protection of the poor and wronged
His Learning illuminated the principles of Law —
In the admiration of his Peers,
In the respect of his People
In the affection of his Family,
His was the highest place;
The just meed
Of his kindness and forbearance.
His dignity and simplicity
His brilliant Genius and his unwearied industry,
Unawed by Opinion,
Unseduced by Flattery
Undismayed by disaster.
He confronted Life with antique Courage
^ And Death with Christian Hope.
In the great Civil War
He withstood his People for his Country,
But his People did homage to the Man
Who held his conscience higher than their praise;
And his Country
Heaped her honours on the grave of the Patriot,
To whom, living.
His own righteous self-respect sufficed.
Alike for Motive and Reward.

In the business of life.
He acquired the esteem of men.
Cheerful and amiable
He won their attachment.
Conspicuous among his graces
Was that genuine filial love
Which in its duties finds its pleasures.
The principles
Which should govern his conduct.
Were sought in the precepts
of our holy religion;
For in very early youth he had been led
to acknowledge before the world
Him who is "The way, the Truth, the Life,"
And through Whom
"Death is swallowed up in victory."

But death was his great gain
For he passed from the joys of earth

For many years an eminent lawyer
In this city, he was not less admired
For his knowledge which was various
And profound, than for
Those qualities of heart and mind
Which made it honorably & practically useful
Preferring the calm of retirement
To the distinction of public life.
He rather shunned than sought office :
And was as remarkable for declining.
As many are, for courting its honors
But the appointments which he did accept
Both elevated and responsible,
Were discharged with learning.
Ability and fidelity.
He submitted patiently to the infirmities
Of age, and died with the resignation
of a Christian.

With the qualities of the head, heart.

The loveliest of her Sex ;
These were rendered the more estimable
By her discreet, moral and pious conduct.
In her life she was therefore much beloved.
And at her death much lamented.
But her afflicted husband and children
"Sorrowed not as those without hope."
For they were by this hope consoled.
That GOD had willed to translate her.
From this frail and fleeting existence
To one of everlasting bliss.
And that by His grace they may so live
Here, as to be reunited to her hereafter.

MISS ANN F. SIMONTON

The South Carolina Society
Have erected this Tablet.
Recommendations from the most respectable
sources of the high attainments of this lady
induced the Trustees of the Academies
established by the Society to select her as
the Principal of the Female department.
Urged by a pious sense of filial duty
To contribute to the comfort of an aged mother
she sought the responsible office,
and in a short time fulfilled the hopes
which her reputation had authorised.
To an energy not inconsistent with the
character of the softer sex
She added an urbanity, which tempered
without impairing her discipline.
The interesting objects of her care
acknowledged the justness of her decisions
whilst they were grateful for the mildness
with which these were enforced.
Zealous and cheerful in the discharge
of her duties, she won the studious application
of her admiring pupils, whose innocent tears
consecrate the memory of her Virtues,
and afford the best illustration
of her eminent worth.

The mortal body freed from pain.
That debt by nature must be paid
For all return to dust again ;
Tho all that's mortal must decay.
Their is a part which cannot die.
And that — will waft its onward way
To meet — its just reward on high.
