Photographic Survey Of Historic Charleston - 70 Tradd Street - To Search For Historic Charleston Homes For Sale See http://www.ourcharlestonhome.com/Historic-Charleston-Homes 70 Tradd St. c.1774 Judge Robert Pringle built this large brick single house in 1774, placing the date on a plaque on the house, with that date. After his death in 1776, the house passed to his son John Julius Pringle, who studied law at The Temple in London, and was attorney general of South Carolina for 16 years. President Washington appointed him District Attorney for South Carolina and he declined Jefferson's appointment of him as Attorney General of the U.S. The house remained in the Pringle family until 1886. The Pringle house is a substantial three and one-half story brick, on a high brick basement. lt has superb Georgian interior features, a Regency piazza and a Victorian front bay window.

Fraser" scratched his name and that date on a windowpane. The pane probably immortalizes Frederick Fraser, the then 12-year-old grandson of Frederick Grimke. Whether Grimke built or bought the house is not known. Another Grimke grandson, the miniature painter Charles Fraser, brother of Frederick, lived here. The Grimkes and Frasers were Protestants, but a tradition persists that the first Roman Catholic Mass in Charleston was celebrated here in 1786, by an ltalian priest en route to Latin America. Tradition says that Mass led to the establishment of St. Mary's Catholic Church. (Ravenel, DYKYC, Oct. 19, 1942; Simmons; Stoney, This is Charleston, p. 105.)
