This ante-bellum structure once stood on Orangeburg's Public Square. In 1865 it was occupied by Federal troops. From 1924 to 1955 it housed the first public library in Orangeburg County, organized by the Dixie Club (1896). Given to the Orangeburg County Historical Society, it was moved in 1955 to its present site—the Pioneer Graveyard (1749).
