               Highlights from the David Lindsay Pettus collection: 




In September 1960, Winthrop College along with the York County Historical Commission created a play depicting the history of the Catawba Indian Nation. Patterned after other historical dramas of the period it was a success. Surprisingly in this era of segregation, several Catawba Indians were asked to be part of the drama, although the majority of the cast were white.
