Restored Bedingfield Inn at Lumpkin. (PRN)
TOUR
GEORGIA
f LUMPKIN, Georgia (PRN)
a — The Bedingfield Inn, which
I has survived from the period
I when Lumpkin was a frontier
J town, has been restored by the
1 Steward County Historical
I Commission. It is being
J furnished throughout as it
I would have been for the use of
| a prosperous family and as an
1 inn in a relatively affluent
1 period, about 1840.
The Inn was built about
i 1836 by Dr. Bryan Bedingfield
I and served as a family
I residence as well as a stopping
J place for stagecoaches and
I other travelers. It was located
I approximately a day’s travel
L 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.
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.
Plans call for a cotton gin
and a wooden screw press for
baling cotton, both to be
operated by mule power.
There will be a potter,
shoemaker, cabinetmaker,
tinsmith, offices for a doctor
and a lawyer, a general store,
churches, an academy and a
newspaper.
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.

OUTDOORS
ATLANTA (PRN) - It
hasn't been so long since
hunters and fishermen camped
in pretty rugged conditions.
This is not to say they didn’t
have comfortable camps, but
camps were likely to be pretty
remote, and campsites
anything but refined.
While there has been a
tremendous boom in camping,
and great progress in camping
equipment, sportsmen still
often find themselves camping
in pretty remote areas. In
some cases this is by choice,
though the trend seems to be
to more and more comfortable
living afield.
Pickup campers and travel
trailers seem to be cropping up
everywhere among
outdoorsmen, especially
hunters who like the extra
warmth and comfort afforded
by them, during the cold
weather when they hunt.
This type campers, of
course, can provide a great
many comforts on their own,
whether improved facilities are
available or not. . .provided a
place to put them can be
found, and that such places
are not too difficult to get to.
While camping has shown
tremendous growth lately, and
it is true that many of the
recent converts to camping
care little or nothing for
hunting or fishing, camping
certainly has become no less
popular with the hunter or
fisherman.
And though some folks like
to rough it, many a sportsman
would, if he could, set up his
traveling home- away-from
home al more luxurious sites.
Fisherman don’t have as
much problem here as do
hunters. Lakes and streams are
naturals for campsites and
many such waters of Georgia

Camps To Be Near
Fishing, Hunting
have good campgrounds
nearby. Yet, on summer
weekends, most campgrounds
in such locations are filled to
overflowing.
This being the case, it may
be that Georgia campers, and
particularly hunters and
fishermen, may welcome the
news that a new campground
chain is building campsites in
various locations around the
state. Safari Campgrounds says
they plan to locate their
campgrounds as closely as
possible to good fishing and
hunting areas.
At the moment, plans are
to put in a campground near
Ringgold, off 1-75, not far
from Chattanooga. Another is
to be put in toward the other
end of Georgia’s part of that
same interstate highway, this
one is to be near Macon.
Construction is expected to
begin any day, and both
should be open by June. By
that time, there’s a chance
that several other Safari
campgrounds will be under
construction within our state,
according to Wayne Fears of
Athens, a company
representative.
Wayne, formerly with the
Coastal Plain Area Planning
and Development Commission
in Valdosta as an outdoor
recreation specialist, told me
of these plans at a recent
meeting of the Georgia
Outdoor Writers Association,
where his firm contributed to
the festivities of the meeting.
It is good news that there
will be more ultra-modem,
well-planned camping spaces
in the state. If you’ll recall
your last summer weekend
campout, I’m sure you’ll agree
that there’s a need for more
and better camping areas.
