Camden, NJ

9th
Street


NINTH STREET first appears in Camden City Directories in 1878, and over the years expanded far beyond its original length, now running south to north, with a few major interruptions, from Morgan Boulevard to Pyne Point in North Camden. 

Do you have a NINTH Street memory or picture. Let me know by e-mail so it can be included here.

William O. Sawyer

William O. Sawyer is listed at 901 Walnut Street in the 1906 City Directory. It appears that he bought adjoining homes at 953 and 955 South 9th Street shortly afterwards. The 1910 Census shows William O. and Kate Sawyer at 955 South 9th Street. Daughter Katie and her husband William Rogers lived with them, daughter Adaline and her husband James Hughes lived next door at 953 South 9th Street. William O. Sawyer was still serving as a member of the Camden Fire Department when the 1914 City Directory was compiled. He had by this time been promoted to the rank of Lieutenant. He and wife Kate were then living at 953 South 9th Street and were still at that address in late 1918.

Judge Pancoast Proves to 2I That Honesty Is Best Policy

If there’s anything Police Judge Pancoast doesn’t like it's to have people trying to fool him, he said. So yesterday Pancoast sent two alleged speakeasy inmates to jail for 6o days and gave the confessed proprietor only 50 days.

Emil Hatter, 35, of 829 Carpenter Street, was arrested for violating the ordinance prohibiting congregation of disorder1y persons on the premises by Lieutenant Herbert Anderson Thursday. Hatter told the court that he was proprietor and was in the illegal liquor business to provide for his two children.

"That's no excuse," said the judge, "you should provide for them without breaking the law."

He fined Hatter $50 and sentenced him to 50 days when he was unable to pay. The judge then turned to Edward Mackay, 38, of 531 Ray Street, and Alfred Brooks, 45, of 700 Pearl Street [wrong address - PMC], who, Andersen said, were drunk in Hatter's establishment.

Both men admitted having a few drinks, elsewhere, but insisted they were sober and that they did not buy the drinks from Hatter.

"I'm good and tired of having peop1e trying to fool me," said Pancoast. "I don't know what they take me for. I'm going to end it, though, by giving each of you 60 days."

Unable to pay a fine of $100, George Young, 29, colored, 954 South Ninth Street, was sentenced to 100 days when he pleaded guilty to operating a "wash­boiler" still in violation of the city speakeasy ordinance. His wife, Ethel, 19, and Annie Fussel, 37, of 614 Chestnut Street, alleged inmates, were given 30 days each in default of $25 fines.
