Exhibit on King writings closes with crowd



ATLANTA (AP) -- An exhibit featuring the writings and documents of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. closed Sunday after drawing record crowds, officials said.
Another big turnout at the Atlanta History Center on Sunday to the four-month exhibit on the city's most famous native boosted the total attendance to about 65,000, museum officials said.
"By far, this is the most popular exhibit we've had," said Sean Thorndike, vice president of operations for the center.
The "I Have A Dream: The Morehouse College Martin Luther King Jr. Collection" exhibit gave the public a rare opportunity to see King's original writings.
