Abstract:
When Lady Susana Carolina Matilda, a sister of England's Queen Charlotte, visited New Bern and Wilmington, she was wined and dined. She was, however, Sarah Wilson, a former royal maid, who stole jewels and clothing from the royal household. Condemned to death, she was deported to Maryland at the last moment. There she escaped and began her assumed identity. In Charleston, South Carolina, she was arrested - the how and what happened later is history's mystery.

Abstract:
The Country Doctor Museum in Bailey was created in 1967 by physicians Gloria F. Graham and Josephine P. Newell. Housed in doctors' offices dating back to 1887, the museum harkens back to a time when doctors made house calls and measured their own medicine. Among the exhibits are eleventh century apothecary jars, bleeding bowls, ear trumpets, gunshot forceps, and the surgical tools used to amputate the left arm of Stonewall Jackson.
