Abstract:
Judge William Pless discusses what North Carolina courts should do with juvenile first offenders. Often, due to the lack of reformatory facilities, these juveniles are paroled into the care of parents or guardians who fail to properly direct the children, and often they are seen in the courts again. Pless argues that \"prison camps\" that can demonstrate life in prison for young boys may help prevent them from continuing on a path of crime.

Abstract:
Thomas Bragg, a member of the prominent Bragg family of Warren County, served two terms as Governor, assuming office on January 1, 1855.
