Abstract:

In the fall of 1900, Sarah and Retyre Couch and their two friends traveled by schooner wagon from the Sandhills to Greensboro. Because the roads between towns were not fully recovered after the war, the women often preferred walking to riding. The groups final exploration was of the Guilford Courthouse battleground. Sixteen days after they set out, the four returned home to Southern Pines.
