Also known as &#8220;The Retreat,&#8221; the home was built by African American A. B. Raddick around 1905. In 1913, chemist James Norris Gamble and Thomas White of White Sewing Machine Company, purchased the home for Bethune. On December 2, 1974, the historic house was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. In 2006, the museum closed for renovation and conservation. It reopened in April of 2011.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"RICHES MI has added a number of photographs to the\u00a0Mary McLeod Bethune Foundation Collection.
