CAROLINA COMMENTS PUBLISHED BIMONTHLY BY THE NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF ARCHIVES AND HISTORY VOLUME XIX, NUMBER 6 NOVEMBER, 1971 Culture Week to he Held in Raleigh North Carolina's annual "Culture Week," a unique gathering of the state's thirteen cultural and historical organizations, returns to its perma­ nent home in Raleigh November 30 through December 4. Headquarters will be at the Sir \Valter Hotel, and programs and reservation forms will be mailed in November. Among this year's outstanding speakers will be Dr. Lyman H. Butterfield, editor in chief of the Adams Papers at the Massachusetts Historical Society, who will deliver the address at the awards session of the Literary and His­ torical Association; and Mrs. S. Henry Edmunds, director of Historic Charleston Foundation, who will be luncheon speaker for the Society for the Preservation of Antiquities. The annual Culture Week reception, to which members of all participating societies are invited, will be held on Wednesday afternoon, December 1, at the North Carolina Museum of Art. The schedule for the various organizations during the week is as follows: Tuesday, Roanoke Island Historical Association and the Federation of Music Clubs; Wednesday, State Art Society; Thursday, Society for the Preservation of Antiquities, Museums Council, and Symphony Society; Fri­ day, Literary and Historical Association, Folklore Society, and Arts Coun­ cil; and Saturday, Society of County and Local Historians, Mayflower So­ ciety, Historical Book Club, and Poetry Society. James Iredell, the first North Carolinian to serve on the United States Supreme Court, is to be the subject of an address by Dr. Don Higginbotham at the annual meeting of the North Carolina Literary and Historical Asso­ ciation. Dr. Higginbotham, professor of his­ tory at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, is editing the Iredell Papers, to be published by the State Department of Archives and History. (Photographs by State Department of Archives and History unless otherwise specified.) The week-long activities have grown up around the North Carolina Liter­ ary and Historical Association, the oldest of the societies, which tradi­ tionally meets the first Friday in December. The name "Culture Week" was first applied by Jonathan Daniels in a tongue-in-cheek editorial in the Raleigh N eu)s and Observer. Far from being upset by the "spoofing" reference, Dr. Christopher Crittenden, then director of the State Depart­ ment of Archives and History and secretary of the Literary and Historical Association, liked the name and informally adopted it. Brantley Appointed Adrninistrator of Tryon Palace Michael W. Brantley, former president of the Mobile Historic Develop­ ment Commission in Alabama, became administrator of Tryon Palace on October 1. Announcement of the appointment was made jointly, on August 27, by Mrs. John A. Kellenberger, chairman of the Tryon Palace Commission, and Dr. H. G. Jones, director of the State Department of Archives and His­ tory. Brantley succeeded Dr. Gertrude S. Carraway, who served as director of the project from the beginning of its restoration in the 1950s. Dr. Carraway is remaining on the staff temporarily to help plan for the official opening of the John Wright Stanly House. A native of Troy, Alabama, Brantley received his bachelor's and master's degrees from the University of Alabama and completed the course work for his Ph.D. at Louisiana State University. He was a Fulbright Fellow at Edinburgh University in Scotland for one year. His teaching experience includes two years at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and four years at Spring Hill College in Alabama. While teaching in college, Brantley became interested in the three­ dimensional aspects of history. He participated in the seminar for historical administrators at Williamsburg in 1970 and served as acting director of the Mobile Historic Development Commission for several months prior to be­ coming its president. He restored a historic house in Mobile for a residence­ a task that he expects to repeat in New Bern, a town noted for its early buildings. As administrator of Tryon Palace, Brantley has taken charge of a com­ plex that encompasses nineteen buildings, including, in addition to the palace, four other period houses and a number of formal gardens. The restoration of the colonial governor's residence was carried out by the Tryon Palace Commission with funds provided by the late Mrs. James Edwin Latham of Greensboro, whose son-in-law and daughter-Mr. and Mrs. John A. Kellenberger-are treasurer and chairman, respectively, of the commission. The properties, after restoration, were accepted by the state for administration by the State Department of Archives and History. Tryon Palace Syn1poshnn Planned The fourth annual Tryon Palace Symposium on the Eighteenth Century Decorative Arts will be held in New Bern on March 12, 13, and 14, 1972. The sessions are sponsored by the Tryon Palace Commission; Division of 102 Continuing Education, East Carolina University; and State Department of Archives and History. The John Wright Stanly House will be the topic of the lectures. Authori­ ties will speak on the architecture, furniture, carpets, and ceramics of this latest addition to the Tryon Palace complex. Tours of the house will be featured as a part of the program. Marvin D. Schwartz of the Metropolitan Museum of Art will close the series of lectures with a presentation of "Colonial American Cabinetmakers, 1670-1780, and their English Models." Registration forms may be obtained from the Division of Continuing Education, Box 2727, East Carolina University, Greenville, North Carolina, 27834.

  • Did You Know? North Carolina
    Did You Know? North Carolina Discover the history, geography, and government of North Carolina. The Land and Its People The state is divided into three distinct topographical regions: the Coastal Plain, the Piedmont Plateau, and the Appalachian Mountains. The Coastal Plain affords opportunities for farming, fishing, recreation, and manufacturing. The leading crops of this area are bright-leaf tobacco, peanuts, soybeans, and sweet potatoes. Large forested areas, mostly pine, support pulp manufacturing and other forest-related industries. Commercial and sport fishing are done extensively on the coast, and thousands of tourists visit the state’s many beaches. The mainland coast is protected by a slender chain of islands known as the Outer Banks. The Appalachian Mountains—including Mount Mitchell, the highest peak in eastern America (6,684 feet)—add to the variety that is apparent in the state’s topography. More than 200 mountains rise 5,000 feet or more. In this area, widely acclaimed for its beauty, tourism is an outstanding business. The valleys and some of the hillsides serve as small farms and apple orchards; and here and there are business enterprises, ranging from small craft shops to large paper and textile manufacturing plants. The Piedmont Plateau, though dotted with many small rolling farms, is primarily a manufacturing area in which the chief industries are furniture, tobacco, and textiles. Here are located North Carolina’s five largest cities. In the southeastern section of the Piedmont—known as the Sandhills, where peaches grow in abundance—is a winter resort area known also for its nationally famous golf courses and stables.

  • A Manual of North Carolina
    A MANUAL OF NORTH CAROLINA I SSU t -> BY THE NORTH CAROLINA HISTORICAL COMMISSION FOR THE USE OF Members of the General Assembly SESSION 1915 COMPILED AND EDITED BY R. D. W. CON NOR SECRETARY NORTH CAROLINa'hISTORICAL COM M ISSION RALEIGH EDWARDS^. BROUCHTON PRINTING COMPANY STATE PRI NTE RS 1915 1915 PREFACE. This volume is issued by the North Carolina Historical Commission in order to furnish to the members of the General Assembly of 1915, in convenient form, information about the State which otherwise would require much investigation in many different sources. It is also hoped that it may prove of value and service to others who desire to have in succinct form such data about North Carolina. Similar Manuals, issued in 1903, 1905, and 1907 by the Secretary of State, and in 1909, 1911, and 1913 by the North Carolina Historical Commission, have proven of very general utility and interest. Re- quests for copies have come not only from all over North Carolina, but from most of the States of the Union, and the demand for them has been so great that all of these editions except those for 1909 and 1913 have long been exhausted, and it is now extremely difficult to secure a copy. The Historical Commission trusts that the members of the General Assembly of 1915 will find this volume of service to them in their work. NORTH CAROLINA HISTORICAL COMMISSION. J.

  • Andrew Joyner, Jr. Collection
    GHM ARCHIVES MSS. COLL. #33 MSS. Collection #33 Andrew Joyner Jr. Collection, ca. 1717-1972. 4 boxes (ca. 600 items.) NOTE: The numbers cited in parentheses, e.g. 1:5, refer the researcher to the Series#:Folder# in which that name/topic will be found. INTRODUCTION The Andrew Joyner Jr. Collection is primarily an artificial collection of autographs and letters, with some photos and prints of the related individuals. Arrangement: The Joyner Collection is arranged into seven series: Correspondence, 1942- 1972; Currency, ca. 1860s; Literary; Photographs; Printed Materials, 1907-1955; Prints; and Autographs. The bulk of the material is grouped in Series 7, the Autograph Collection. Provenance: Many of the more valuable autographs and letters were sold at auction after Mr. Joyner's death, after selected portions of the collection were given to the Museum. There is, however, information documenting some of these more valuable autographs (1:6) as well as the items that did come to the Museum, in the GHM Archives “Legal File.” The bulk of the collection came in 1973 (1973.11), but he presented several items in 1966 (1966.4) and a few additional items came in 1974 (1974.39).

  • Chapter 4 Council of State and Executive Branch
    THE COUNCIL OF STATE The Council of State and the Executive Branch Under provisions in the Constitution of North Carolina, the three branches of state government - legislative, executive and judicial - are distinct and separate from each other (Article I, Section 6). This separation of powers has been a fundamental principal of state government’s organizational structure since North Carolina’s independence. In the nearly two hundred years since the formation of the state of North Carolina, many changes have occurred in that structure. State and local governments in North Carolina have grown from minimal organizations comprising a handful of employees statewide in 1776 to the current multi-billion dollar enterprise that employs thousands of public servants all over the state and provides services for millions of North Carolina’s citizens each year. The increasing number of services and programs that state and local governments provide to citizens and businesses throughout the state has brought with it management challenges. In 1970 the state’s executive branch included over 200 independent agencies. Recognizing the need to streamline and simplify the executive branch’s organization, the General Assembly undertook a major reorganization of state government. The legislators began the reorganization by defining the activities that most appropriately should be entrusted to executive branch agencies. In an October 27, 1967, speech, Governor Dan K. Moore urged the North Carolina State Bar to take the lead in sponsoring a study to determine the need for revising or rewriting the Constitution of North Carolina. The Council of the North Carolina State Bar and the North Carolina Association joined in appointing a steering committee that selected twenty-five people for a North Carolina State Constitution Commission.
