Abstract:
The four-day siege and capture of the federal post at Plymouth, North Carolina, on 20 April 1864, spawned stories afterward of the murder of captured \"Buffaloes\" (white North Carolina Unionists) and blacks. Because of the disputed, contradictory, and inconclusive nature of the evidence, historians' views of events have differed. A review of a more comprehensive collection of evidence suggests that, despite arguments to the contrary, there was a massacre that took the lives of approximately fifty of the nearly 4,500 military and civilian persons in Plymouth on 20 April.

Abstract:
An examination of a five year controversy surrounding the North Carolina Speaker Ban Law, a statute proposed in June of 1963 that prohibited the appearance of visiting speakers who were \"known\" members of the Communist Party, who were \"known\" to advocate the overthrow of the constitutions of North Carolina or of the United States, or who had pleaded the Fifth Amendment in refusing to answer questions about Communist subversion at any public colleges or universities. Particular attention is given to UNC President William Friday's role in the controversy.
