Abstract:
In this collection of local stories, John Handy, a black man, had a writing spider in 1887. Another story tells of a man named Lassiter from Greene County whose little seven year old son had eyes with the word "America" written around each pupil. In 1879, Gov. Zeb V. Vance helped advertise the award winning apple brandy of R. A. Bynum of Pitt County. Gov. Thomas J. Jarvis would also later do the same.
