NORTH GflFIDLINA HISTORY
EXHIBIT AT JAMESTOWN
(By MAIIY MILLIARD HINTON.)
There la an historical awakening
in North Carolina. If this continues
and the enthusiasm shown increases I
annually as it has done for the. past
live years, not many legislatures -will
convene before a sufficient appropri
ation will bo made for the erection
of a hnndsome, fire-proof Hall of
History in our state capital. In no
oikv undertaking has this change
been revealed more than in our His
tory 'Exhibit at Jamestown Imposi
tion.: This was done with the peo
ples' money, by the people and for
the. people. Its work is chiefly edu
cationalt Tiie result has been sur
prising .and 'gratifying' to the ladies
in eliargJ. Crowds visit this exhibit
daily and have done so since the dale
of the foru'il opening August '12.
Innumerable visitors come just to
see this collection and visit no other
in tile building. During those strenu
ous days before the History Build
ing was thrown open to the public,
when valuables Were being un
packed and placed, 'It was considered
necessary to restrict admission to
cards. North Carolina's guests kept
the Powhatan Guard stationed at the
entrance, the courteous Custodian
and Superintendent busy daily an
nouncing and admitting the said par
ties. .;,'', ;
Not. only was the exhibit of deep
est interest to Tar Heels, but from
various states of the union came per
sons who found here material of
worth to them personally. The As
sistant Attorney-General of New Jeiv
sey, during a call one morning, was
questioned as to the meaning of his
middle name, l!urr. IIo replied he
was descended from the Hurts.
"Then you are related to Theo-
dosia. hanging yonder," remarked
the custodian.
The gentleman rose at once for a
closer inspection of said portrait
wit h the thrilling history of that lady
with the tragic tale. He saw a
marked familv' resemblance in the
heavy jaw and requested that, he
might be allowed to have a photo
graph taken of this.
On another occasion a lady of the
Clan Olugariy, Scotland; came to see
the four pieces of the silver service
presented by Prince Charles Edward
to the brave Flora MacDonald. She
belonged to the same family and was
a namesake of this Scotch lassie.
Her interest was refreshing to iwlt
ness. She, too, must have a photo
graph of these heirlooms if such a.
privilege could be granted. .' '.'. ,
The?e are only a few of 'the. In
stances', showing the- value this is to
the limit itude.
The Jamestown Historical Com
mission, who planned, collected and
installed this exhibit is composed of
Mrs. Lindsay Patterson, chairman;
Miss Rebecca Schenck, of Greens
boro, and Miss Mary Hilliard Ilinlon,
of Raleigh. They have worked
steadily on It since November 1.".,
IflOfi. The appropriation set aside
for the purpose by the Jamestown
Commission of North Carolina was
not large, but generous considering
the sum Appropriated by the legis
lature for the various exhibits and
the state building at the exposition.
The commonwealth of Pennsylvania
gave ft 00,(M)U. fur.,. -.representation
there. This was only used for erect
ing and maintaining their stale
building an exact reproduction of
Independence Hall and tlw exten
sive exhlliit In the history building,
which Is by far the finest of all.
North Carolina deserves much credit
for exhibiting a collection of relics
that compares so favorably with that

from the wealthiest state In the
union.
Ours is said by competent judges
to be the best representative his
torical exhibit in the History Building-
for not only are the . great
events in our history shown, but the
life of the people and the noble men
and women who have given their
best services to their state and aided
in making her great.
The space allotted us is rather lim
ited 22 by 28 feet. Application
was made for more room several
times but it could not bo secured.
Owing to this fact, the collection was
restricted to the Revolutionary and
Colonial periods, and much of our
most valuable history is omitted.
The arrangement of the relics is
in chronological order, save where
an artistic effect cannot be sacri
ficed. The first event depicted is the
planting of the earliest English set
tlement at Roanoke Island in 15S."i
by Sir Walter Raleigh. His coat-of-arms,
the splendid collection of the
White Pictures, eighteen in number,
representing the features of the In
dians on Roanoke Island, their modes
of dressing, fishing, eating, and
prayer, their tombs and villages, and
the twelve fine views In oils of the
islam!,- painted by Mr. Jacques Bus
bee, "laim much attention. The origi
nals of the White Pictures were
painted at the command of Queen
Elizabeth by John White in 1585,
who remained on Roanoke Island a
year lacking five days for that pur
pose, and are now in the British
Museum. The copies are made by
Mr. Albert Sterner and are the gen
erous gift of Colonel Benehan 'Cam
eron. Mr. Husbee received the ordor
from the State Historical Commis
sion to paint the scenes on the is
land. The sad fate of the Lost Col
ony is told in the monument erected
to Virginia Dare.
"The Kdenton Tea Party" attracts
considerable notice.. The very unique,
little model of Mrs. Elizabeth King's
residence, in which the "Tea Party"
was held, was presented by Dr. Rich
ard Dillard, of Edenton, and is placed
beneath the painting of that me
morable event; also his gift to the
State Library. ' The excellent photo-
! graph of Mrs.. Penelope Barker, the
; President of the "Tea Party," the
handsome portrait of Mrs. Winifred
! Hoskins, the secretary, the candle1
stand used - on that occasion, the
china plates, owned by Mrs. Hoskins
and Mrs. Elizabeth'-. Horniblow are
shown. The booklets are placed on
exhibition four volumes. The pro
ceeds from tills publication will bo
used in erecting a memorial to the
fifty-one signers of that extraordinary
Declaration of Independence,, .which
will he unveiled in the Capitol at
Raleigh sometime this autumn.
The collection of MSS is inval
uable. There are letters from Gov
ernor Samuel Johnston, Judges Ire
dell and Henderson, Generals Greene,
Graham, Wayne, and La Fayette,
Willie Jones and many others, while
documents are shown with ifanios of
Governors Arthur Dobbs, Richard
Caswell, Charles Eden, Chief Justice
Gales and others subscribed. The
court-martial drawn in the hand
writing of John Paul Jones is (ho
gem or the collection. The .account
book of General Jelhro Sumner is
valuable from many standpoints.

The handsomest case is that do
voted to the silver. .This represents
the aristocracy of our colony and
shows North Carolina received within
her boundaries-' some of the gentry
of other lands. It was arranged to
prove the falsity of -Flake's, Colonel

indentured criminals of the worst
kind. The Cameron service, bearing

to Rev. William Hooper came from
Fayetteville.
The collection handed down in
Blount and Harvey families, loaned
by Miss Rodman, of Washington, deserves-an
article for that alone, to
receive justice.
The. buttle case, contains relics
that, figured in the l.altle of Ala

Mountain, and Guilford Court House.
Many fire-arms used during the Rev
olution adorn the space.

from that quaint town. Never be
