A history of the old store is interesting. In 1838, when Springfield was j o ing and Abraham Lincoln was the idol of the Whig party in the General Atsrtn- bly, there came out from rennsylvmla two young men, Dr. William S. Wal- lace and Jonathan Roland Diller, druggist They started a drug store in CON-SAN- of Fifth street When the "new state house, now the Sangamon county court house, was built In 1842, Wallace A Dillon bought the frame building that had been temporarily used as the state house and moved It to Sixth street opposite the now remodeled court house. There they remained In the drug business until 1849, when the firm of Wallace & Diller was succeeded by Corneau A Diller, the Diller of the new firm being Roland W. Diller, a cousin of the first Diller. The first Diller, J. Roland, waa a noted Democrat. In 1848 Thomas Harris bast Stephen T. Logan for Congress. The night the result of the election was known Diller coated himself with phosphorous snd went out on the street to celebrate. In his enthusiasm he caught fire and would have burned up alive had he not plunged into a horse trough at a corner of the square.

One day Judge Logan was in the midst of a fire of raillery, busily engaged In slicing off chunks of the chair on whirh Mnroln was sitting. This was mors than Mr. Diller could stand. Judge, said he, there Is a pine box in the back yard, and if It will do as well as that chair I wish you would whittle on it. Judge Ixigan waa so offended that ha left the store, snd for a week did not return. But, passing one day, he caught lght of a few friends Inside, and, picking up a pine board, he walked in, and, eating himself In the arm chair, remarked: Well, Rolla, I guess I've been s fool long enough; I've brought a piece of that pine box with me.
