Old Cotton Bales Sell From 1862 Plantations in Rock Hill
On Tuesday, R. E. Guthrie, administrator for the estate of J. Harvey Williamson of Bethesda township, sold two bales of cotton grown by slave labor in 1862 from Williamson’s plantation. The crop, stored since the war, fetched eight and a quarter cents per pound in gold equivalent, with a strange history of holding despite a higher offer and gold premium. The bales, packed with iron ties and Hickory witches binds, remain in good preservation and were bought by W. L. Roddey & Co. at eight and a quarter cents per pound. The sale occurred as market prices dipped below the postwar highs.
