00:07: It seems to Mr. Keller that most people in the area worked in some capacity with the college.
2:05: Megginson is interested in what civic organizations might have been around during Mr. Keller's youth. He states that there were very few unlike today; churches seemed to handle these issues. Social activities such as picnics, suppers, and dances were organized by local churches. The various churches all seemed to cooperate well with each other.
5:36: Mr. Keller was a freemason, joining after World War II.
7:00: The two discuss "pressing clubs" in the days before dry cleaning.
10:00: Cadet uniforms were wool and extremely hot.
10:57: When Mr. Keller was a youth, there were no street lights in Calhoun.
11:10: The two discuss the formation and evolution of the police force in the area.
13:40: Megginson notes several pictures hanging in the Keller's store: Keller's parents and himself when he was a baby; Keller himself with his wife and child; and a certificate from Royal Tailor's of Chicago recognizing Isaac Keller's fine work.
15:00: Mr. Keller is named for William Jennings Bryan. A portrait of Bryan hangs in the store. Isaac Keller greatly admired Bryan. A picture of Napoleon is also displayed. Mr. Keller is not sure, but thinks this may trace to the fact that the French may have settled Abbeville. In addition there are several photographs that depict the current "Judge" Keller while he was in the military in World War II.
16:32: Megginson would like to know how Clemson has changed. Keller states that it has gotten bigger, and more famous. His father wouldn't have minded the fact that female students now attend.
17:55: Megginson thanks Mr. Keller for the interview.
17:59: Audio ends.
