What Do You Know of North Carolina?
A quiz recalls how Salisbury students flogging punishment began the practice as farm work was required. Colonel Isaac Shelby, later in Tennessee, served Virginia legislature in 1778 then NC House in 1882. North Carolina fame reached Rome by 1700 via John Lawson. Judge Archibald Murphey, jailed for debt in 1829, left a public-spirited but tragic legacy. Nathaniel Rochester’s 1779 treasurer election was ruled illegal and NC legislature punished resigning Continental officers in 1777.
