Abstract:
George V. Strong became the Confederate States attorney for the District of North Carolina on June 17, 1861. His first task was to go to New Bern and deal with three admiralty cases. Admiralty cases were not Strong's specialty and, in general, presented a convoluted area of the law for any practicing lawyer of the time. The article reviews how Strong called upon those more experienced to deal with specific admiralty cases in the state at the opening of the Civil War.
