Raleigh A Charming City Historic Associations and Charm
Col Fred A Olds extols Raleigh as a city of historic ties, moral debates, and inviting roads. He notes its state purchase for the Capitol plan, Civil War landmarks, cemeteries, and Worth Bagley’s grave, plus Confederate sites and a growing winter resort appeal with clubs, golf, and a nine‑hole course. The piece highlights New England migration, hotels, colleges, museums, parks, and nearby mills within a mild climate and easy access to North Carolina and New York locations.
