If walls could talk, those of the University of North Georgia’s dining hall banquet room would have had a lot to say Friday afternoon. The world’s only full size, hand-painted replica of the Bayeux Tapestry was on display at the university’s Dahlonega campus. The 224-foot tapestry covered the walls of the entire room and was donated to UNG last year by E.D. Wheeler, a retired judge and former dean at Oglethorpe University.
