Next we drove through the Quapaw Quarter, which includes the Governor's Mansion, Mt. Holly Cemetery, and the Villa Marre, the old house used in the exterior shots on the television show, "Designing Women."
We also went to the Mount Holly Cemetery, which is called "the Westminster Abbey of Arkansas" (according to the brochure). Among the many famous Arkansans buried here is David O. Dodd, who was hanged during the Civil War at age 17, for being a Confederate spy.
We also went to MacArthur Park, and saw a statue of Gen. MacArthur, and the old arsenal used during the War.
