Item Description
September 30, 1867 Dublin Irelan CDSStampless Cover
Black "3 CENTS" Mark
Scarce Receiving Marking
"U.S 33 NOTES NY"
Addressed to:
Thomas Smyth
Messrs. J. Ellison, Adger & Co
Charleston SC
America
Industrialist. Smyth was born on October 26, 1847, in Charleston, the son of the Reverend Thomas Smyth and Margaret M. Adger. Smyth attended the South Carolina Military Academy, leaving it in 1864 to join the Confederate army. On February 17, 1869, he married Julia Gambrill. During Reconstruction, Smyth was one of the founders of the Carolina Rifle Club, and during the 1876 election campaign that brought Reconstruction to an end, he was captain of the Washington Artillery Rifle Club.
Smyth’s business career began immediately after the Civil War with a position as a junior clerk in the firm of J. E. Adger and Company, a hardware wholesaler. During the 1860s and 1870s, however, Charleston began to lose its dominance over wholesale trade due to unfavorable freight rates and the proliferation of wholesalers in inland towns once supplied by Charleston merchants. By the end of the 1870s Smyth became convinced that it was better to invest in the emerging textile industry of the upstate. In cooperation with the Charleston capitalist Francis J. Pelzer, Smyth decided to organize a cotton mill on the Saluda River in Anderson County. The first mill of the Pelzer Manufacturing Company was built in 1881, and over the next fifteen years three more mills would be added to Pelzer. Smyth served as the president of Pelzer Manufacturing Company for forty-three years until he sold it to Lockwood, Green, and Company in 1923.

Normally, I put all the details I can regarding people mentioned, history,
postmarks, and all I can discern in the listing from the item.
Since much of it is in a text foreign to me, that won't be possible.
If you've gotten this far, you probably will understand it all better than me!
Please view the item's scans! I try to provide the best scans possible!
Enjoy. Discover. Learn. (and bid!)
I have scanned ALL or MOST of the enclosure pages (if any) as well as anything
that might help you to decide whether or not to purchase.
I want you to have as much info on the item as possible.
I will let you read the enclosures for yourselves, as I can only go into so much detail.
I will always try to make the scans large enough to read the writing. Thank You!
This item is in Poor Condition.
Due to age, expect some faults. Please view the scans to form your own opinion on condition.
Additional information upon request. Just message me!
Thanks for looking, and thanks in advance for your bids!
Hi! If an item has an odd price, such as $35.09, it means the item has already been discounted by 22% - 25%, possibly more! In some cases, with a Best Offer, I might be able to take a few more dollars off, but BIG discounts aren't possible. Please keep that in mind when making purchases. If there is no best offer, that means the price is low & very fair to my current (and future!) Hip customers.
As usual, I've been out buying great new items for you, the collector!
This item came from a lot comprised of 19th & 20th century covers, US & Foreign. Condition of these were generally better than usual! Still, some of the covers will have faults typical of items that went through the mail during that time. Some will have less wear, and some will have more, so please, view my high quality scans carefully, and form your own opinion of condition.
In many cases, both sides are scanned so you can hopefully see any/all faults. They should be readily apparent. Please look carefully for any edge wear, tears, missing pieces, corners dents etc.
In general, they will be in fine / very fine condition. Additional information upon request. Just message me! Thanks for looking, and thanks in advance for your purchase!
