Ionic columns with forward projecting scrolls on the: capitals support a heavy entablature and . form a wide two-story portico on three sides of the house. These projecting or turned capitals here are unusual as generally they appear only at a corne of such a colonnade. On the front facade heavy decorative bracketing for a second story balcony emphasizes the main entrance and the two flanking windows. Tho closely spaced turned bannisters make up the balustrade of this balcony that extends only along the front facade. The interior of Bellevue features immense hallways and outstanding plaster cornices. Behind the house was a kitchen. Far to the rear were the slave quarters orchards, and vegetable gardens. The kitchen which was once removed from m the house, now has a serving and pantry area connecting it. to the main • house. A back porch has also been added. m The grounds originally covered 1200 acres and were enclosed by a stone wall and massive gates, replicas of gates at the White House and said to • 1 cost $12,000. n H 10 (••> i; K i o o t' £Vi»jfJ» O/io or Moro as Appropriate) 23 Pic-Columbian!

Built .in two years and said to be designed by a Mr. Taylor, Bellevue is an outstanding example of the Greek Revival style. The house, superbly sited on a slight rise, was introduced by an entrance lane, now called Ben Kill Street, lined with crepe myrtle and juniper trees. Each feature of u detail and design is manifested in an elegantly elaborated form. 'The heavy ID entablature above the columns and the window frames exaggerate the details and form. The scrolled bracketing above the front facade windows arid the unusual turned Ionic capitals add an almost baroque quality to this classical form. Benjamin Harvey Hill had. Bellevue built for his wife, Catherine Holt, sometime between 1853 and 1855. Hill was reared in Troup County from the Hi age of ten, attended the University of Georgia at Athens and returned to LaGrange to practice law* He was elected to the Lower House of Georgia's LJ General Assembly in 1851; was elected a member of the State Senate in 1859? elected to Congress from the 9th District in 1875; and elected to the j United States Senate in 1877. Especially noted for his oratorical abilities, Hill, a Unionist and a Fillmore supporter, debated Robert Toombs and Alexander Stephens on the issues of the 1856 presidential campaign. These well-known heated debates precipitated Stephens' duel challenge to Hill, which was refused and followed by a fiery correspondence. Hill worked hard against secession, but once secession became a reality, he supported diligently the Confederacy when original secessionists deserted. After the war, although ardently opposed to the Reconstruction Acts, Hill again altered his policie: with the altered circumstances and worked once more for the Union. Bellevue, now preserved by the LaGrange Woman's Club , serves as a ^meeting place as well as a memorial to one of Georgia's outstanding • statesmen. • . .• ' .'' ' • . • • ! Coulter, E. Morton.

With its massive Ionic columns on three sides and elaborat* door and window treatments it is as powerful visually as its original owner, Benjamin Harvey Hill, was verbally and .politically. It is said to have been „ built by a Mr. Taylor over a period of two years, 1853-5; each feature of ^ detail and design is manifested in an elegantly, elaborated form. On the front facade heavy decorative bracketing for a second story balcony emphasizes the main entrance and the two flanking windows. The immense hallway features elaborate cornice work and massive, garlanded door treatments. Few changes have been made; only simple rear additions have been made to the original structure. Bellevue, beautifully preserved and maintained by the LaGrange Woman's Club, is one of the most exceptional Greek Revival style houses in a state well-known for its "White Columns".

  • Athens Campus
    Athens Campus Athens Campus Introduction The University of Georgia is centered around the town of Athens, located approximately 60 miles northeast of the capital of Atlanta, Georgia. The University was incorporated by an act of the General Assembly on January 25, 1785, as the first state-chartered and supported college in the United States. The campus began to take physical form after a 633-acre parcel of land was donated for this purpose in 1801. The university’s first building—Franklin College, now Old College—was completed in 1806. Initially a liberal-arts focused college, University of Georgia remained modest in size and grew slowly during the Figure 48. Emblem of the antebellum years of the nineteenth century. In 1862, passage of the Morrill Act University of Georgia. by Congress would eventually lead to dramatic changes in the focus, curriculum, and educational opportunities afforded at the University of Georgia. The Morrill Act authorized the establishment of a system of land grant colleges, which supported, among other initiatives, agricultural education within the United States. The University of Georgia began to receive federal funds as a land grant college in 1872 and to offer instruction in agriculture and mechanical arts. The role of agricultural education and research has continued to grow ever since, and is now supported by experiment stations, 4-H centers, and marine institutes located throughout the state. The Athens campus forms the heart of the University of Georgia’s educational program. The university is composed of seventeen colleges and schools, some of which include auxiliary divisions that offer teaching, research, and service activities.
