comments: james benson tindall, sr. , began his career as a businessman at brown' s landing (now hatton) in 1906 when he rented brown' s store and renamed it' j. b. tindall' s groceries.' in 1914, tindall purchased the store from brown' s descendants and managed it until his death in 1945. this store was built on a strong foundation comprised of large stones that brown took from the james river and kanawha canal lock about one - half mile away. when tindall took the store over, there was a large stone outside its front door, which quite likely came from the old canal lock. the stone stood in full sun during the day and afforded tindall an outstanding location to grow tomatoes from seed. he filled a box with manure, planted tomatoes in it, and sat it on the sun - washed rock to thrive every year until just before he died in 1945. tindall enjoyed great success with his tomato plants and gave away his extra plants free to customers who admired them. shown at right is tindall' s son, jim, jr. , in 1919 as he posed for a photo on his father' s tomato stone .
this country store sold dry goods, groceries, pills, baking soda and sugar in barrels, clothes, hardware, shoes, kerosene oil, and fresh produce with customers across the river in buckingham and the surrounding albemarle countryside. when the store' s grocery shelves needed restocking, tindall rode the train to richmond and shopped at several wholesale houses there. he would get to richmond about 8am and catch the 5 pm train back to hatton, a three hour ride away. drummers also came to hatton to take orders for dry goods and shoes; tindall would measure men for suits and hand the drummer a suit order to be placed. twice a year, the shoe salesman arrived via train from st. louis, missouri, to take shoe orders .

wanted to cater to people of refinement and culture
( spring lake gazette, july 6, 1923) and so in 1882, he purchased three lots on third avenue. he had originally hoped to locate near the railroad station where there were already a number of stores, but the owner of the property he was considering did not want a store on the property. o. h. brown had naturally good taste which was augmented by his frequent buying trips to europe. his store was an immediate success, and he was soon shipping merchandise to all parts of this country .
the brick building was the bakery store. the ovens were in a separate building adjacent to the store. (gray building which looks like a barn to the west) late at night between 10: 00 and 11: 00, young people used to go down to voorhees and buy hot cinnamon buns as they came out of the ovens .

clayton' s also provided a taxi service which would pick up guests at the train station and then deliver them to the hotels .
this was the original dale' s. it could hold about 25 people so every night people would line up outside waiting to get in. because it was so crowded, there was a delivery service. guests at the hotels and residents of spring lake would call in their orders. dale' s advertisements in the spring lake gazette were rather unusual. he advertised :
keep your wife as a pet. eat at dale' s

we cheat you less than the others. eat at dale' s
.

when the automobile became the popular mode of transportation, the stable became a garage. because cars cannot be parked over night on the streets in spring lake, there was a need for places to store the autos that the wealthy summer guests brought with them. hotel guests would use their cars to go out to dinner or to see a show and then turn in their keys to the main desk. the main desk would then call the garage to have the car picked up. clayton' s took care of the automobiles of the shoreham' s and lakeview' s guests. they charged $ 2. 00 a night to store the vehicle and then returned it in the morning to the hotel. so many cars were stored in the garage that the drivers had to crawl out the windows because there wasn' t enough room to open the doors .
in 1891, brown purchased stock in a mining company that soon struck gold and he suddenly became very rich. they moved to denver in 1894 and margaret filled her house with expensive furniture and decorations from around the world. she enjoyed being in the local spotlight and an important part of denver society .
the order would then be delivered to the customer' s home. some customers would send a letter to casagrande' s telling the market when the staff would arrive at the summer home and include a list of items they wished to have stocked in the pantry for the opening of the house for the season .

, spring lake design assistance committee, 1995 .
one of the early businesses on third avenue, bennett and height served the people and hotels of spring lake from the early 1890' s until the late 1960' s. before the days of refrigerated cases, bennett and height erected a large cold storage plant in manasquan in which to keep their meat. in the back section of this building was a. stulz giford and sons seafood. the butcher block was here after bennett & height' s, followed by a number of banks .
he later moved his business to third avenue and replaced his horses with trucks. during good weather, baskets of fruits and vegetables lined the sidewalk in front of his store. these outdoor displays were very attractive to customers but also to a dalmation who lived down the street and belonged to a competitor. micky thought manahan' s lettuces were irresistible and so he stole one every morning and brought it home to eat .
there was much activity in and around the store, ferry, and train station. two railroad tracks ran through hatton: the mainline and a sidetrack. often forty wagons a day, loaded with railroad ties, would cross the river via the hatton ferry from timber - rich buckingham. railroad ties or pulpwood was stacked between the landing road and the railroad track and left there to dry to reduce rail transportation costs. when the wood was dried, the railroad inspected the ties and paid tindall about $ 1 per tie. the ties were then loaded on freight cars for shipment. much of the pulpwood at hatton went to buena vista or covington. tindall hauled surplus ties to lexington where coal mine operators purchased them for shoring up mine tunnels .
after the second world war, more people made spring lake their permanent home. today, most spring lakers are year round residents and third avenue' s businesses stay open all year .
this store which specialized in foreign and domestic groceries, was established in 1884. staple and fancy groceries were offered as well as wines and imported liquors. his business was once located on jersey avenue but as the third avenue began to flourish, mr. getsinger purchased this property .
this was an old business established near the end of the 19th century. it was a two - story wood frame building which is what all the businesses were at that time. the driveway to the south of the building today, was originally the coal lot. there was a 100 horse power coal fed boiler used to clean the laundry. there had to be an engineer in attendance 24 hours a day to keep the boiler fed and regulated. before bleach, whites had to be boiled to keep them white. the laundry for the hotels and the bath and tennis club was done here as well as the laundry for some of the hotels in avon, and private residences in the area. two types of laundry were done here, wet wash and flat wash. wet wash involved washing the laundry, spinning it dry, and delivering it damp in laundry bags to private homes in town where it would be ironed by the household staff or the lady of the house. flat wash was washed, spun dry, and ironed before delivery .
by the time the carpathia reached new york, she had established the survivor' s committee, been elected the chair and raised almost $ 10, 000 for those who had lost everything .
this coffee shop was a mom and pop store owned by eveline and manny. because they didn' t drive, they came to work each morning in a taxi. most of the family was involved in the business. their son rick ran the counter and their grandchildren worked in the kitchen .
myron o. morris was otto morris' s son and served as borough clerk for 38 years. because he was the borough clerk, a lot of borough business was conducted in the real estate office .
manny had come to this country as a young man from south america. he went to new orleans and found a job on a ocean liner as a pastry chef. when the voorhees bakery closed, eveline and manny decided that spring lake needed a place to get fresh baked goods so they opened their coffee and sandwich shop. everything was home made, the soups, the pastries and the sandwiches. they picked a perfect location for their business, right across the street from the bus stop. early morning commuters to new york would pop in for a cup of coffee and a homemade doughnut .
because mr. crisanti was a perfectionist who never took shortcuts, his customers were very loyal. some of mr. crisanti' s customers included jim ameche, gil mcdougald, a former yankee infielder, and mayor frank marucci .
originally located in a small wood building in the middle of the block on the east side, the business was established by orazio marucci in 1900. orazio had come to this country from riccia, italy. he stayed in new york for a short time before moving to spring lake to start the family tailoring and dry cleaning business. his son otto morris (he changed his last name) was actually the first in the family to come to spring lake. in 1882, he opened the otto morris shaving parlor near the railroad depot. he told his father that he would not go back to new york, so orazio came to spring lake .
the store also contained the hatton post office for which tindall was the appointed postmaster. some customers came four times a week to pick up their mail; others, once a week on a trip that coincided with their need to buy groceries or other supplies. tindall employed several young men to help with such store duties as taking orders or stocking shelves. johnny jones, a young black man, came to work for tindall at age 15 and was of invaluable assistance. johnny could not read, but he excelled at stocking grocery shelves by matching the labels. he also was extremely honest; if he found a piece of change on the floor, johnny would put it on the cash register with the statement ,
' tain' t mine !
one day a customer found a coin on tindall' s floor and started to put it in his pocket. johnny saw him do it and said matter - of - factly ,
tain' t yours !
i also found people who were interested in the history of spring lake, and they shared their research with the society. if you wish to know more about third avenue or spring lake' s history, these are the people to talk to :
hills' pharmacy with its cool and inviting porch
( spring lake gazette, july 11, 1902) was a popular spot during the summer with spring lake residents and summer guests. here they enjoyed the ice cream soda for which hills had become famous. the store had a soda fountain, a prescription department, choice confections, druggists sundries, and a public telephone in 1902 .
the burkes had a soda fountain in their store which served soda, ice cream and sandwiches. customers could be served at the fountain or on the patio under the portico. the door which led to the patio can still be seen, although it is now boarded up. jerry fabrey operated the soda fountain and later opened his own soda fountain and lucheonette down the street, one block south .
at one time, there were two a & p' s in town simultaneously. this was the big a & p. it seems unusual to us today to have two a & p' s, meat markets, fruit and vegetable markets, and fish markets on the same street. this was before large supermarkets. markets tended to be small and specialized. also, before refrigerators, people kept their food in ice boxes and so bought only enough food for the day. summer guests brought their entire households with them and so large amounts of food had to be purchased daily .

smith and clayton' s had the added attraction of dr. charles h. perry, a graduate of the new york veterinary college and school of comparative medicine, who had his office at the stable. according to a 1902 article in the spring lake gazette, he was known for his thorough knowledge of horses and could treat other domestic animals as well .
the macgowan agency, which was established in 1946, rented the northern half of the building for many years (where pappas and pappas is now). when mrs. voorhees decided to sell the bakery, the macgowans bought the building. for several years mr. macgowan ran back and forth between the real estate office and the bakery, waiting on customers and selling real estate. one business was enough to run, so he moved the real estate office to where the bakery store was and rented out the other half of the building .
margaret then used her fame to promote women' s rights, becoming active in politics and, in 1914; she became the first woman to run for the us congress. she also helped erect the titanic memorial in washington and continued to serve on the survivors committee but was annoyed that as a woman she wasn' t allowed to participate in the titanic hearings .

( looking west on washington ave .) where edmonds real estate is now, was once leonard newman plumbing and later dangler' s plumbing. in september, 1934, the morro castle caught fire off our coast. area residents manned boats and helped to rescue victims from the storm tossed sea. pathe' news set up cameras on the second story porch and filmed the survivors being taken to the first aid building for treatment. the newsreels were shown in theaters throughout the country .
this was a favorite with the kids of spring lake because it was a good place to buy toys and novelties. almost every child invited to a birthday party in the 40' s bought his gift at this shop. the proprietors were mollie and birdie and there was a white elephant in the corner with a big yellow bow tied around its neck. tb shop here was an adventure for young spring lakers because the shop was dark, a little spooky, and filled with the scent of incense. two black cats used to sit in the windows .

at 11: 40 pm on 14 april a crewmember spotted an iceberg, but it was too late. three hours later the titanic sank to the bottom of the atlantic ocean. of the more than two thousand passengers on board only seven hundred survived, as the titanic did not have enough lifeboats for all the passengers and crew .
margaret was one of the lucky ones who survived. when they were rescued by the carpathia, she worked tirelessly, helping the other survivors by handing out food, drinks and blankets. as the ship arrived in new york, margaret found herself in the spotlight, as everyone had already heard about her bravery and good deeds .
when world war i broke out, margaret travelled to france and helped establish a relief station for the soldiers .
she was awarded the french legion of honour in 1932 for her work for titanic survivors, her organisation of the alliance francais and her relief efforts during the war .

when the historical society began working on this tour, i began searching for a 120 year old spring laker to talk to. such a person could not he found, but i was able to find a number of people who knew a good deal about spring lake and third avenue. many had been born in spring lake and had spent all of their lives here. others had spent much of their lives, or many summers in spring lake. fortunately, all had good memories and had been very observant while growing up .
j. a. osborn livery and boarding stables (extended from where the spring lake pizzeria is today, to the corner of passaic and third) built in 1876, this was one of several livery stables in spring lake. most people arrived by train and needed a means of getting about once they got here. others arrived in their own carriages and needed a place to board their horses. an early description stated :
his stables are large, well ventilated and particularly well adapted for the accommodation of boarders... about twenty head of good horses are hired to responsible parties for business or pleasure driving and experienced and careful drivers provided if desired... the carriages are newly painted and rubber tired ...
spring lake gazette, july 11, 1902
mr. charles lewis purchased the land the livery stable had been on, in 1920 and erected this business building a short time later. it was home to many fine stores and the colonial tea room which was located where kate & co. is now. the tea room served lunch and dinner and ice cream out on the patio during the summer .
it is fondly remembered for the beautiful view of divine park that could be enjoyed with the meal .
frank, another son, took over the tailoring business at age 14 having apprenticed as a tailor at brooks brothers in new york city. in 1910, frank built the marucci building as a new modern facility for the tailor shop. he used the northern half of the building for his shop and rented out the southern half .
frank marucci served as a borough councilman from 1916 - 1936, and as the mayor from 1936 until his death on dec. 15, 1956. he was well thought of, and was elected for 40 consecutive years. in 1959, marucci memorial park was dedicated and named in his honor .
otto morris built the building to include the otto morris shaving parlor and a theater. above the theater there was a ballroom. years after, criso crisanti bought the building .
an earlier location of this business was the northwest corner of morris and third avenues. the business later moved to the southeast corner of morris and third. criso crisanti started working as a shoemaker with his father at the age of 5 in sorano, italy (about 150 miles north of rome). he would get up at 5 a. m. and work several hours before going to school. during world war i, he served in the italian army (then fighting on the allied side). he was captured by the austrians in the alps and held as a prisoner of war. in 1919 he emigrated to the united states with little money and even less english. after working as a cobbler in cranford, roselle park, and belmar, he moved to spring lake in 1925. in that same year, mr. crisanti returned to italy and married his childhood sweetheart, fausta. she was not able to join her husband in spring lake until 1927 when mr. crisanti was able to get the necessary papers .
apparently, it was difficult to tell the triplets apart. an accomplished runner challenged one of the burke brothers to a long distance race from lakewood to asbury park. the challenger expected to win hands down and was very surprised to see that the burke brother had finished the race, and even more surprised by the fact that the burke brother seemed to have handled the race so much better than the challenger had. what the challenger didn' t know is that the three brothers kept changing places during the race.
