IF YOU walked around town and asked five or six elder citizens where the old “tan-yard” was located, chances are that more than one would ask, “what’s a tan-yard?”
The dictionary defines tanning as “to convert (a skin) into leather; originally and still generally by impregnation with an infusion of oak bark or other form of tannic acid.” The resulting leather is tan in color, hence the name. A tan-yard is a place where this process is carried out.
The most recent tan-yard in this city was probably located at the north end of Monroe St. (23rd Ave.) close to the Warrior River. It is shown on the projection map of Tuscaloosa dated 1887 as the small building next to the river. This is the one I remember.
An older and larger tan-yard is mentioned in Matt Clinton’s history of Tuscaloosa on page 46. This was owned by Petite Marlow, a wealthy free Negro. It was indicated on an old map as being between the Sander’s Ferry Road and the river and what would be 42nd St (just west of the present Tuscaloosa Country Club).
An interesting by-product of a tannery is the discarded oak bark after it has served in the leather making process. It is considered ideal for circus rings, athletic running tracks, and if enough is available, for horse racing tracks.

AT THE foot of “River Hill” (24th Ave.) an interesting complex of manufacturing plants were located. Included in this group were:
A cotton mill.
A plow manufacturing company.
A foundry.
A “shot tower”.
What is a “shot tower”? Well it is a tall tower resembling a smokestack. The one mentioned above was made of brick masonry. At the top molten lead was poured through a wire screen. The size of the mesh determined the size of the shot.
As these lead pellets or droplets fell the height of the shot tower they solidified into round shot suitable for use in a shotgun. The final catch basin was filled with either water or oil depending on whether the final shot would be “soft” or “chilled”.

Late in the Nineteenth Century Tuscaloosa obtained its “tap” water from a private company later purchased and operated by the city (circa 1910).
The “Pump House” was just west of Riverview and the water was drawn from the bottom of the river some distance from the riverbank and thence bumped to the “Water Tower” located on 27th Ave. just north of 5th St.
Many citizens filtered the water to remove the muddy discoloration while most families boiled their drinking water or imported in jugs or demi johns the necessary drinking water.
To obtain a better and more palatable supply of drinking water the City of Tuscaloosa had an artesian well and drinking fountain installed in the heart of town. The four-sided fountain was installed in the center of the intersection of 6th St. and 24th Ave. The well was bored midway between the Alston Building and a store, just east of the line of pedestrian traffic. The pump and motor were in a pit below ground. This water was extensively used for drinking for all who would come after it.
An interesting incident occurred one day when the water failed to flow although the pump was operating at normal speed. City policeman Alex Simpson was accompanying Clayton Strickland who was called to locate and repair the trouble. The trouble was located instantly. When a match was struck in the pit there was a terrific explosion. The well was emitting an inflammatory gas instead of water. Clayton Strickland received severe injuries from this explosion resulting in lifetime facial scars and the loss of most of the exterior of his ears.
Soon after this incident the city filtered and treated the “tap” water so the fountain was no longer needed and was removed.

IF YOU like excitement together with a spice of danger you should have made a trip at night through the old Northport Covered Bridge under the following conditions:
This covered bridge, about 60 feet long, was located between the Warrior River Bridge and the M&O overhead trestle in Northport spanning a ravine on the street paralleling the river.
Many Northport boys were jealous of Tuscaloosa boys who called on Northport girls. Should a Tuscaloosa swain have a date with the best of a Northport dandy, the strategic spot to get even was within this covered bridge.
Usually the attack came from above from overhead rafters: Perched on this lofty seat, bricks and rocks were dropped in an indiscriminate manner. A pistol shot in this enclosed corridor sounded like a cannon. If you were driving a horse and buggy the horse also shared your consternation.
No matter how brave you felt, on approaching the covered bridge the goose pimples always came and the uncertainty of a surprise attack gave you a wonderful feeling when you had made it to the Tuscaloosa side.

DO YOU remember Tuscaloosa’s cigar factory and its “Bushy Tail” cigar? It was located on University Blvd. just west of Johnny’s Restaurant on 24th Ave.
It was a “one man” factory, and Gonzales, who was both proprietor and staff, seemed to be an indefatigable worker. His workbench was back of a front window of the shop so any passerby could get a good look at the process of rolling cigars.
The fine point in making cigars was in fabricating the wrapper around the filler in such a manner that one end (the end for the smoker’s mouth) came to a sealed point which had to be cut, or bitten off, so that the cigar would draw when lit at the other end.
Gonzales, a Spaniard I believe, had a special way of finishing up the lighting end. Where all other cigars were cut off square at this end, he made a kind of brush out of the filler extending beyond the end of the wrapper. This facilitated the lighting of the cigar but created quite a hazard when bits of burning loose ends fell on the clothes or upholstery of the unwary user. The trade name of this type of cigar was “Bushy Tail.”
Many a time when I was sent to the Atlanta Store (First National Bank corner) to get a spool of thread in a hurry I forgot my haste if I passed the cigar shop, for it was fascinating to see the skill and dexterity of the artisan who made them.

The first motion picture to be exhibited in Tuscaloosa was one of the feature attractions of a transient street fair or carnival (circa 1905) which set up its tents in the street in the heart of town before these streets were paved. The moving picture tent was located in the middle of Greensboro Ave. between Brown’s Dept. Store and what is now Black, Friedman & Winston.
When Thomas A. Edison invented the moving picture camera and the projector (circa 1893) there were no movie studios, directors or producers so Mr. Edison set up to make his own films as the first director and producer. If not the first picture, it was by far the most notable he produced. The name of this picture was “The Great Train Robbery” and was released circa 1903. This was the picture shown in the first exhibition outline above as Tuscaloosa’s introduction to the movies.
Only a short while later a vacant store (about 514 24th Ave.) opened up as Tuscaloosa’s first movie theatre. It was named or known as “The Nickelodeon” as were many others over the country that charged an admission fee of five cents. It was not too much later that the fee was raised to 10 cents, but the name nickelodeon remained.
A little later The Nickelodeon moved one block south on 24th Ave. to where Stallworth’s meat market had been located. To the best of my recollection Dave Cypress operated this picture show at each of these locations.
The first movie theater to be built as such was the Diamond which was erected on the corner of 7th St. and 24th Ave. (now occupied by Quinn’s Hardware Store). This was a joint enterprise by J.Q. Bush and R.H. Little and they soon added the Belvedere (next to the Alston Bldg.) and the Princess on University Blvd., where Gray’s Men’s Shop is now located.
When the Belvedere burned in 1921 it was rebuilt as the Ritz and operated by C.B. Grimes who introduced the first talking pictures in Tuscaloosa. When the First National Bank 10-story building was erected in 1934 the Bama Theatre was built. In 1938 the Bama moved to the new City Hall Bldg. at 6th St. and 24th Ave. and the Druid took over the old Bama location next to the bank.
Today there are many suburban and/or open air movie theatres in the Tuscaloosa area, however none of these have the personality or individuality of the early local movie theatres (the “flickers”). So I would like to end this article with a salute to Pearl White and the “Perils of Pauline” and the other continued weekly series that held such a captive audience in suspense.

Many of you will remember our “River Hill” (the extension of 24th Ave. northward from corner of 5th St. and 24th Ave.) prior to the widening and improvements made in 1951. You will recall the row of shanties and poorly constructed sidewalk along the east side.
How much do you remember about the west side of River Hill? First there was no sidewalk of any sort. Yes, the electric service to Northport was on this side. How well do you remember the small, unique and mysterious structure about midway of River Hill? This building was of good quality brick masonry, with first class roof and heavy steel plate door.
The heavy brass padlock was very similar to those used at the calaboose (city jail). The building was unique in that there were no windows or visible ventilation and no sign or label to disclose its identity. Its miniature size (about 10 feet by 10 feet) gave it a tinge of mystery.
Over a period of many years I asked dozens of friends as to the identity of this building and I do not recall a single correct answer. Some thought it a burial vault; some guessed it to be a jail of some sort.
Well, what was it?
“It” was a powder magazine known as the “powder house.” A city ordinance prohibited more than a certain maximum storage of dynamite or other explosives (such as gun powder) in a vendor’s place of business. The City of Tuscaloosa built this powder magazine many years before the Civil War for a safe storage place for any excess explosives that a merchant might receive in a new shipment.
The city marshall kept the only key to the powder house so a merchant had to contact him to obtain any explosive material stored there.
When River Hill was widened and otherwise improved with curb and gutter in 1951 the powder house vanished.

A casual ride anywhere around Tuscaloosa will reveal many good public eating places and many small hot dog and barbecue stands. Many are brilliantly lighted and sparkle with new and efficient equipment and sanitary features, and they all seem to be very popular.
Compare this with the period of, say 1900-1920 in our city. The best known “eating places” included the following four:
1. The McLester Hotel, located at corner of 6th St. and 24th Ave. This was Tuscaloosa’s best, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner.
2. The Busy Bee restaurant, located in the east (one-story) part of the Alston Building on 6th St. and 24th Ave. In addition to regular meals the short order department operated from dawn to late at night.
3. Mr. Willingham operated a very small “hut” place between the curb and the sidewalks located first at the Brown Department Store corner, 5th St. and 24th Ave., and later at the Kress store corner, 5th St. and 23rd Ave. His hot dogs and barbecue sandwiches were excellent.
4. The Whole-Hog-and-Biscuit was operated by W. H. (Bill) Rohrer. It was located on the east side of 24th Ave. between 6th and 7th Streets. The Court House was located on what is now the Alston Building corner and the Diamond Theater on the corner of 7th St. and 24th Ave. The Court House moved to its present site about 1907 and Bill Rohrer moved to the southeast corner of 7th St. and 24th Ave. where Pure Oil filling station now is located.
A great many out of town people were served by the Whole-Hog-and-Biscuit while attending to business at the Court House. But a large amount of trade came from school age children who have an insatiable appetite and patronized this place especially before, during and after the picture show.
So “you just paid your money and took your choice.”

HELP!
When I agreed to write a few articles for Graphic I stated that they would be “off the cuff” type from memory and were not to include any research. One item I thought to be of interest and not be too difficult to verify – I well remember early in my life that I was told one of the churches in Tuscaloosa was in the process of having a church bell cast. The foundry men told them that a quantity of silver mixed in with the bell metal would give the bell a soft and mellow “silver tone.” A group of church members got up a purse of about 300 silver dollars and shipped this coin silver to the factory for inclusion in the bell metal.
Well, for the life of me I cannot remember which church was involved. Either the Methodist or Presbyterian Church seems to ring a bell in my memory.
In an attempt to set the record straight I’ve called many older citizens, deacons, elders and others and have found out many interesting things regarding our church bells but no one seems to know about the coin silver that went into the bell in question.
Included in the information that has come to light at this time, I find that the bell in the original First Methodist Church in Tuscaloosa was cast by Paul Revere, a famous copper and silversmith of Philadelphia—also famous for his night ride on horseback calling “the British are coming.”
I was also told that Mrs. Belle Harrison, sometime later, wrote the Paul Revere foundry for certain information about the bell and was told in substance that Paul Revere made only three church bells. They knew where two of the bells were located; that the third bell was sent to Mobile for shipment by river boat “somewhere,” having never heard further about this third bell they had assumed the riverboat had sunk and that the bell was the bottom of the river.
I hope some good reader can give me some authentic information regarding the “silver toned bell” so that it can be added to its church history.

The era 1905-12 saw a big change in family transportation. This was the period that transition from horse and buggy travel to the automobile was being experience by local families and commercial travelers.
Most families had used horse and buggy means of local travel for a long time. Many families became attached to the horses and I am leaving it to these individuals to recount the interesting stories of their favorites.
I would like to tell of two pair of horses that were much in the public eye and were widely admired in Tuscaloosa.
“Peaches and Cream” were the names of two lovely Palominos—light cream color with long white mane and tails. Their place of residence was a livery stable located at what is now the site of Perry’s Pride (corner University Blvd. and 22nds Ave.). Their harness was resplendent with bright metal and patent leather trimmings. The most popular “rig” or vehicle to which they were hitched was a landau—a four-wheel vehicle with top divided so it could be used open or closed.
Although sometimes used at weddings, formal parties and dances, the prime use of this horse and carriage was to transport and provide a sideline seat at football and baseball games at the University of Alabama for the beautiful young ladies who were sponsors and maids for the game. They were escorted by the team manager and assistant manager since the team captain and his assistant were both players.
The landau had two seats facing each other. The coachman was resplendent with top hat, long coat and other trappings and he had a high front driver’s seat on his rig.
“Samson and Dewey” were the names of the other pair of horses. Their residence was at the City Fire Station located on the northwest corner of the Court House square until about 1907 and thence on 7th St. about the center of the block east of the Court House square.
These handsome steeds were large, coal black in color with a white “star” on their foreheads. A Mr. Weatherby was caretaker and custodian of the fire station and he made an excellent trainer. At the sound of a gong and trip of the chain across the horse stalls the horses rushed up to their places under the suspended harness. It was only a matter of seconds to snap the horse collars together and snap the driver lines (bridle reins) to the horse bit, and all was ready for the driver’s command, “let’s go.”
The horse cart or fire wagon was painted a brilliant red. It was equipped with fire hose, two small extension ladders, and two chemical fire extinguishers. It was a thrilling sight to see the fire wagon go by with the horses in full gallop.
There were no successors to these two famous pair of horses. “Peaches and Cream” were replaced by Packards, Cadillacs, etc., and “Samson and Dewey” lost their job to a larger red fire truck (circa 1910) whose successors now have a high pressure water booster pump, snorkels, self-erecting ladders and other sophisticated equipment.
“Samson and Dewey” were kept by the city and used to pull a wagon for collecting ashes since without gas service both stores and residences largely used coal for heating. One day the ash wagon was parked within one half a block of the fire station while the driver was loading ashes. True to tradition when these horses heard the alarm and gong they took off on their own, driverless, and followed the truck to the fire, spilling ashes right and left from the wagon.
