Macon Georgia
Ritchie Yorke, ZigZag, March 1974
THIS HUGE OLD Southern mansion has seen much better days. The dozen giant columns which surrounded it are flecked by peeling paint, grimly revealing the grey tin beneath. The verandahs are littered by clumps of leaves and fading newspapers. The gardens are spoiled by weeds. Everything man-made is parched of paint.
