Matching Funds Must Be Raised The Perquimans County Restoration Association, Inc. will be the recipient of grants totaling $37,500 provided matching funds can be raised by July 1, 1973. Those funds must be raised locally or through an outside source or the county does not get that grant money. This and other important information was revealed at a meeting last week attended by some Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors members, members of the Town Council and the Restoration Association. Total cost of restoring the. Newbold-White House will be about $80,000 total cost of the entire project, that is opening the house and ground to tourists and moving the Theopholus White House to the area to be used as a museum will be about $200,000. A lot of money? Indeed, it is. But it can mean so much more to the county so far as visitors and what they spend here are concerned. This has been proven in other areas and we can do the same. The Newbold-White House, according to the State Depart ment of Archives and History, is the oldest building in North Carolina, and that fact alone means a tremendous tourist attraction. The Theopholus White House, which dates back to about 1700, will be a skeletal museum so that visitors can see how homes were put together in those days. Tools and equipment will also be on display. The only other such known exhibit is in the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. Rev. Edwin Williams, executive director of the Restoration Association, said the Newbold-White House, even though far from being officially opened, has, since last Sep tember, attracted 360 visitors. ' They have made special arrangements to see it so it doesn't take much imagination to know how many people it will attract as a regular tourist site. Rev. Williams also reported Artists And Craftsmen Inbd to Participate In connection with the June 11-18 Anniversary Celebration of Edenton, North Carolina; Artists and Craftsmen are in vited to participate in a Display and Sell Show on Saturday, June 17 from 10 o'clock a.m. until 6 o'clock p.m. The Show will be housed in the Art Studio, located on South Broad Street over the 20th Century Barber Shop and the Building and Loan Office. Exhibitors will be responsible for staging and exhibits. Anyone interested please notify Mrs. Frank M. Holmes, Blount Street, Edenton, N.C. Phone: 482-2539, Edenton, N.C, by noon Thursday, June 15. Exhibits should be set up, if possible, -on Friday, June 16. The Studio win be open from 10 o'clock a.m. until 5 o'clock p.m. MR 3 I that more than 100 people visited a booth at the recent two-day housing fair held in Edenton. And slides of both old houses, taken by Chamber Manager Frank Roberts, have been shown in programs to various clubs and organizations in our, and neighboring, counties, peaking still more interest. Goal for the opening of this tourist attraction is 1976. In the meanwhile it will take the help of everyone in the country financially and otherwise, to make it a reality. The Restorations Association and the Chamber of Commerce will conduct, later in the year, a fund-raising campaign; they will continue to publicize the building and, as Rev. Williams said, "it will really make friends for this county." 1,064 Turn Out For Second Primary DEMOCRATIC . , i" TICKET i ? .f U.S.Sen.te V- Nick Galifianakis 146 179 60 28 56 53 112 634 B.E.
