Book excerpt: Excerpt from The North Carolina Historical Review, Vol. 31: January-October 1954 Like most Of \those engaged in the promotion Of agricul tural reform, Weller was a farmer himself. He moved from Orange County in New York to Brinkleyville in Halifax County, North Carolina, in the 1820's, settling in that place on a 400-acre farm, for which he paid a dollar and a half an acre. This land was described as miserably and prover bially poor and was said to be dear at that price. With the aid Of hired hands and the application of the most advanced farming methods, this farm was brought into a high state of productivity and became a source Of satisfactory profit to the owner. 13 Weller never became a planter in the traditional sense, but engaged instead in general farming, viniculture, and in the operation of a small nursery.
