Henry's Room #337

Perched above the stately columns on the front of The Inn at Wise, Room 337 is more than a guestroom it is a space steeped in history and storytelling. In 1936, this room served as a refuge for journalists. Among them was the inspiration for Henry Jernigan, the world-weary reporter immortalized in Sharyn McCrumb’s acclaimed novel The Devil Amongst the Lawyers. Room 337 became a vantage point for those narratives. Today, Henry’s Room stands as a tribute to truth and fiction.
