Abstract:

Archival material, like books, letters and photographs, are susceptible to theft like other historic objects. Dispute over ownership of historic material, court documents related to William Hooper, led to the North Carolina v. B.C. West Jr. in October 1975. The case would reach the North Carolina Supreme Court in March 1977 which upheld the ruling that \"public record cannot be destroyed, defaced, or given up without authority from the source that required it to be made.\"
