Pump could have had a hard time priming itself. Battery likely went dead again cause of old battery terminal wires, loose connections or shorts. Check all your battery terminal connections and terminals good and tight & terminal wires may be corroded or burned inside the insulation. Check all fuses/relays. Have alternator tested. Fuel pump may have went bad as a fuel pump (the worst is the after-market cheapo's) will go bad if ran dry (tank empty) even if new, so fill up when down to an 1/8 tank of fuel.
