Typescript article with annotations, "John Berry of Hillsboro, North Carolina," by Eva Ingersoll Gatling, and twelve photographs, apparently intended as illustrations for the article. John Berry (1798-1870?) was, according to Gatling, "one of those almost anonymous builders who worked all his life within the confines of his native state, building simply and directly to meet the needs of the people among whom he lived." The article characterizes the style of the buildings known to have been built by Berry. There are photographs of several of the buildings, including the Berry-McLarty Porter house, Saint Matthew's Church, the Methodist Church, the First Baptist Church, and the Orange County Courthouse in Hillsborough, N.C.; Saint Luke's Church in Salisbury, N.C.; Smith Hall (now Playmakers Theater) at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill; Saint John's College (now Oxford Orphanage) in Oxford, N.C.; and a house on the campus of Wake Forst University, Wake Forest, N.C.
