Abstract:

Another story of unusual interest about old homes is that of Myrtle Bower, in Edgecombe County, built in the 1820s. Home of the Hart family for generations, down its shady avenue rode the gentry of a century ago, and along the same road came the marauding army, or parts of it, of the notorious Sherman in 1865.
