Abstract:
The second of three articles published under the heading \"A Forum: The Virginia-North Carolina Slave Conspiracy of 1802.\" This article disputes Douglas Egerton's thesis from his article, \"'Fly Across the River': The Easter Slave Conspiracy of 1802\", the first article of the series, stating that  the conspiracy did not originate in Halifax County, Virginia, and spread to other Virginia and North Carolina counties, rather, that the 1802 slave conspiracy consisted of a series of unrelated disturbances.

Abstract:
An examination of the use of convict labor for road building during the years between 1890 and 1917 as a measure of penal reform. Using North Carolina chain gangs as a case study, the article seeks to establish the basis for the penal reform, to determine whether the use of chain gangs for road building was an attempt to rationalize the existing penal system, or if it was related to other progressive activities, and what eventually lead to the failure of the program.
