A poem from Mt. Vernon North Carolina dated October 1885 opens with prayers for sleep and protection from turmoil. The text shifts to a rustic anecdote about a butter-peddler recounting a neighbor’s gin troubles and a jealous husband chase, ending with a dramatic stall in the road as two lovers reunite at a hill near their kin’s house.

Race for a kiss sparks hilltop chase in tale and law

In a vivid reminiscence a playful chase ends with Nell and Kitty provoking Ben and leading a hill race. The scene shifts to a North Carolina legal measure repealing and reworking deed registration rules effective December 1 1885 with provisions on conveyances and affidavits and penalties.
