(PRN) LUMPKIN, Georgia (PRN) The Bedingfield Inn, which has survived from the period when Lumpkin was a frontier town, has been restored by the Steward County Historical Commission. It is being furnished throughout as it would have been for the use of a prosperous family and as an inn in a relatively affluent period, about 1840. The Inn was built about &and served as a family residence as well as a stopping place for stagecoaches and other travelers. It was located approximately a day’s travel from Columbus on the north, and Fort Gaines and Cuthbert on the south. It provided a convenient stopping place for travelers between Americus and Eufaula, Alabama to the West. In that period, Lumpkin was a busy frontier town and the Inn provided a center for commercial and community activity. Dr. Bedingfield, the builder, was the first physician in Stewart County and his son, Dr. Samuel Bedingfield, who grew up in the Inn, was the first white male child born in the County. The unusual and delightfully bright colors found throughout the Inn are close reproductions of the original colors in all the rooms. You Are Invited To Attend Our fprand Opening '■ow In Progress...

Masonic Meeting The Public or Inn Room, to the right as you enter the building, was the room where the men gathered to talk crops, exenange political views and news, smoke and drink. Since ladies never frequented the Inn Room, a Ladies Parlor was located on the same floor. The room over the Public or Inn Room was the Common Room. Here cheap accommodations were provided for those travelers who lacked the means to engage a private room. These guests often slept several to a bed or pallet on the floor. Since the pay for this room was negligible, the owner felt no obligation to provide heat. It is the only room in the Inn without a fireplace. Some pieces of furniture in the Inn were made by fine cabinetmakers of the West Georgia area. The Tourist Division of the Georgia Department of Industry and Trade suggests a visit to nearby Westville. The citizens are striving to make Westville the same type of community it was in the 1830’s. Westville s aim is to present a true, living sample of the preindustrial culture which shapes the actions and ideals of people who made America great.
