North Carolina Corn Fields Submerged by Flood Waters
Heavy rain swelled streams and rivers across North Carolina. The Neuse ran very high as corn fields ten or twelve feet tall were flooded. river approaches to Cape Fear bridge near the Sea board Ar Line lines were within five feet of the bridge. A mad dog attack near Edenton led to a deputy sheriff being wounded by the animal. Three men were charged with passing counterfeit silver. Edenton and surrounding areas faced washouts delaying a Chattanooga Norfolk run. Political discussion in the Populist camp highlighted alliances with Democrats and the issue of free silver.
