Picture of mural at the post office on the campus of UNC Chapel Hill. John Grant Rencher immigrated from Ireland and picture symbolizes what he did. Was a land manager. Don't know why they only showed him from the back. But the mural is very large and commemorative of early settlers of the area and all their activities.
