HE ENVIRONS of the
vicinity possess a pecul
iar charm for visitors
owing to their pietur
esqueness, variety, and
JSxi the glimpse of the quaint
life of the natives which they give. Nu
merous roads lead oft' in many directions,
for in this section, as in the days of olden
Rome, "all roads lead to Pinehurst."
There are many groves of primeval
pine;hroad lowlands, with their luxuri
ous tangle of holly and other shrubs ;
wide expanse of plain, with sedge grass
ind scrub oak; gleaming ponds, with de
caying mills and moss-eovereu waier-
wheels; cotton gins, turpentine distil
leries, tar kilns, lumber mills, fruit or
chards, grape vineyards, and everywhere,
one finds the homes of the natives and
comes in contact with their interesting
occupations.
THAGAKD'S AM) VICINITY.
One of the most popular and easiest
points of access is "Thagard's," located
eight miles in a northeasterly direction,
and reached by a road, once an Indian
trail, which starts from the Palmetto gate
and is plainly marked the entire distance.
The place was formerly a mammoth
plantation of about 2400 acres, and the
home of the Thagard family for nearly
fifty years. Previous to the war, it was
the centre round which the life of the
vicinity radiated, and the old building
which served as postoliice and general
store, is still standing. The old grist
mill is in picturesque ruin, but the pow
erful dam, which holds back Lower Little,
River, maintains a beautiful pond over a
mile in length and nearly half a mile
wide.
The old plantation mansion still stands
and about it are mighty pines which thrill
one with their majesty, forming a large
grove, which is an ideal place for pic
nickers. The semi-cultivated fields of
the plantation are si favorite resort for
quail, woodcock abound in the lowlands,
and the wild turkey is not uncommon.
On the bluff between the grist and saw
mills, is the quarry from which the fam
ous "Climax" mill stones have come.
Lakeview, a small winter resort, lies
beyond Thagard's and is reached by the
road which passes to the right of the
river, from which point it is plainly
marked with signs. The little place is
well located with a pretty pond, a hotel,
stores, and numerous homes.
The Union Home School lies bevond
Thagard's on the great Pee Dee road,
about fourteen miles from Pinehurst. It
is a good example of southern academies.
There is a church near by, and the great
road from Carthage and Cameron cross
here.
MCKKNZIK'S AND VICINITY.
A point of more than ordinary interest
is the MeKenzie plantation, one of the
oldest in the neighborhood, and only two
miles from the Village. A substantial
log house, erected in 1818, is the home of
i typical family of native whites, who
are always glad to see visitors. The
spinning wheel and hand loom are still
in use here, and the simplicity of the na
tive life is well illustrated.
The landscape is most attractive and
the pond, mill, falls, and the ford below
it, are most picturesque. The grist mill
is still in operation and farmers come
f rom miles around, as they have done for
more than half a century, paying toll for
having their grain ground into meal, in
the old-fashioned way.
The route is through the gravel pit gate
at the rear of the power house, from
which point oik; keeps straight ahead,
crossing the Yadkin Road, and passing
"Sunset Lake" at the right, a mile from
the Village. From this point, the plainest
left hand road is followed in a north
westerly direction, the ford crossing the
stream just below the mill with the house
in plain view, on the hill beyond.
One may return the same route, or fol
low the pond road continuing on past the
Wallace Farm, Pine Ridge school house
and Wicker's Goat Farm to the Village, a
distance of about three and a half miles.
This trip is, by the way, a most enjoyable
horseback ride.
McCaskill's Plantation lies beyond Me-
Kenzie's. After crossing the ford follow
the lane up the hill, past the McKenzie
house, on the right, to a point about one
mile away when Nick's Creek is crossed.
The road hen; turns to the riirhtand leads
straight to the plantation. There is an
old farm here, a large pine grove, and a
pond from which power for electric lights
in Carthage, Aberdeen and Southern
Pines is secured.
The Culdee Presbyterian Church lies be
yond McKenzie's. After crossing Nick's
Creek, where a road turns to the right
leading down the creek, follow the direct
road up a steep hill, and continue on the
most direct road. The church is about
four miles from Pinehurst and close by
it, is a burying ground in which the
graves are marked with slabs of native
fat pine, which in this climate, lasts many
years.
Black's Mills also lies beyond McKen
zie's and the route is the same as to Me
Caskill's, as far as Nick's Creek, at which
point oik; turns to the right and passes
Ritter's, then on to the Southern Pines
road to Carthage, which leads to the mills.
r
WICKER'S GOAT FA KM.
Another point, very easy of access, be
ing but two miles distant, is Mack Wick
er's Goat Farm. The route is through
the Goat Farm gate, back of The Caro
lina, taking the left hand road leading in.
a northwesterly direction, and crossing
the ford at .Toe's Fork, which is just be
low the farm buildings. A number of
goats of all ages and conditions will be
found here and their merry frolics fur
nish entertainment for young and old.
The return may be made in the same
way, or one may continue on to the cross
roads near the A. & A. 11. R. track, turn-
