Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Exercises in Connection With the Presentation to the State by the North Carolina Historical Commission of a Bust of John Motley Morehead: Hall of the House of Representatives, December 4, 1912 An Address Delivered in the Hall of the House of Representatives, December 4, 1912, upon the Presentation to the State of a Bust of Governor Morehead by the North Carolina Historical Commission. Along the line of the North Carolina Railroad, from its eastern terminus at Goldsboro to its western terminus at Charlotte, lie eleven counties embracing six thousand square miles of territory, now one of the most prosperous and productive regions in North Carolina. During the decade from 1840 to 1850, perhaps no other State on the entire Atlantic seaboard could have exhibited a stretch of country of equal area which presented to the patriotic citizen so discouraging a prospect or so hopeless an outlook. Such a citizen traversing this region would have found public roads and methods of travel and transportation that were primitive when George III claimed the allegiance of the American colonies. Delays, inconveniences, and discomforts were the least of the evils that beset the traveler who entrusted life and limbs to the public conveyances of that period.
