The Chattanooga Times recounts Cahaba, Alabama, once the state capital and cultural hub, dwindling after railroads bypassed it. The old capital building, churches, and student academies fall to ruin while Capt. Cliff Kirkpatrick’s plantation thrives nearby, preserving remnants of a grand era.

Williams County North Dakota Offers Rich Lands and Growth

Williams County sits in the northwest of North Dakota along the Missouri River with about 250 miles of river frontage. It spans roughly 4,000,000 acres with rich soil, abundant cereals, and extensive lignite coal and sulfur beds. The area supports stock raising, farming, and brick making, with mild winters and extensive grazing nearly year round. Williston, the county seat, lies on the Great Northern Railroad twenty miles from Fort Buford and features multiple industries, hotels, and services, acting as a robust freight division hub.
