Abstract:
There have been four Grand Masters of the Grand Lodge, St. John's Lodge with Grand Jurisdiction of North Carolina. From 1791 to 1811, John Louis Taylor served as Grand Master for three terms, later attaining fame as a lawyer and Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. Following Richard Dobbs Spaight's retirement in 1832, it was not until 1850 that Alonzo T. Jerkins, prominently connected in industry, finance, and transportation, became Grand Master. Following Jerkins three consecutive terms as Grand Master, Charles Cauthen Clark, a native of New Bern and member of Congress, was elected Grand Master in 1870.

Abstract:
Davis illustrates how North Carolina’s Supreme Court from the antebellum period to the Great Depression was heavily influenced by two factors. One is English law, the other three of the state’s law schools. The extent of this influence is examined in how individuals like William Blackstone contributed to the state legislative branch's development. It is also examined in how these law schools’ curricula impacted law reform.
