Collection Overview
Two photographs depicting Bingham School near Mebane, North Carolina, 1897-1898. The first is of a group of students and teachers posing on the front porch of a building on campus. The people are identified on the reverse of the picture. The second image depicts students and a teacher posing with bicycles.

Olds and the boys standing in a dining hall with a table containing plates of food. The other is an outside view of Col. Olds and the boys positioned on a pier with a recently caught shark. The photographs were taken by J. P. Hayes of Raleigh.
