A display in the museum’s library, next to the gift shop, shares information about two medical legacies in North Carolina. The display features information about Dr. Manassa Thomas Pope, an 1886 graduate of the Leonard School of Medicine at Shaw University, Raleigh. After serving in the Spanish-American War, Dr. Pope established a practice in Raleigh at the turn of the century. The display also features an image of Dr. Milton Quigless, who settled in Tarboro, NC in the 1930s, and established the Quigless Clinic and Hospital to serve his patients.
