Abstract:
Bryant continues his series of articles, this time recalling one of the most sensational murder cases ever tried in North Carolina. It was one of the most mysterious events to happen in Elizabeth City. Nellie M. Cropsey disappeared from her home on the night of November 20, 1901. Twenty-six days later her body was found in the river, and her suitor was charged with her murder. The trial attracted nationwide attention. Yet questions still remain over some details of the case.

Abstract:
The shortia, so far as known, grows nowhere else in the world except in certain area of the state's mountains. The flower was found by Andre Michaux, the famous French botanist, on a trip through the state's mountains in 1787. It remained unnamed until Dr. Asa Gray, the American botanist, discovered it on a trip to Paris in 1838 and named it in honor of Professor Short of Kentucky. It was rediscovered in the mountains in 1877.
