Participants attending the second biennial Edenton Symposium this week (April 18-20) are being asked to help with the furnishing of the James Iredell House, now one of the state's historic sites, v; '' Home of the noted Revolutionary leader and Supreme Court judge, the house, built circa 1775, stands as a monument to the early patriot. In 1949 the Edenton Tea Party Chapter, National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution, purchased the house to save it from possible demolition. In 1951, the state of North Carolina assumed ownership and has maintained the house since With the cooperation of the DAR and James Iredell Association. Restoration of the house is ' expected to be completed in the near future, and proper furnishings are a must. Since the James Iredell Association, the DAR, and the Division of Archives and History; like most restoration organizations, have limited funds, and oooaaa, not to maotloa marrlaxa to ovary on&Blaatloa whlob tba to Ufa: to waauoo'a Mllof ink. . raltof.

So the appeal for tax deductible donations of furnishings or cash is going out to sym posium participants and the general public. Since no records specify the furnishings used in the Iredell House, it will be furnished as a typical 1770 1825 Edenton town residence. A guide just issued, based, upon ex tensive research using period sources, outlines thel many and varied needs for the restoration. The organizations involved urgently request the help of everyone in preserving a portion of North Carolina's and the nation's heritage. Some of the items listed in the guide include furniture pieces such as Chippendale style four-post bed, FROM VERMONT , Mrs. Donald F.
