burlington wrote of them They insist
that no Publick Money can or ought to be
paid but by a claim given to and allowed
by the House of Burgesses." 1t is the
same way today In 1871 the Assembly
addressed these words to Governor Bur-
rington: Eve are of opinion that no pub
lie monev ought TO be Issued but by
the Governors Council and the General
Assembly" The North Carolinians of to-
day are like their so-called turbulent"
ancestors. They have an old-fashioneG
notion that the people are supreme.
In predatory notes on Colonial Rec
ords, we find the following:
I'm 1875. when the Colony was only
twelve years old, the people turned out
their Governor, Colonel Jones. How
many Governors they turned out before
that time we do not know. .
I'm 1877, 1878 and 1879 Miller and East
church were turned out and the Culpep-
per Rebellion prevailed.
The next unfortunate was Seth
Sothel, or Southwell. whom in 1899, the
Assembly formally banshed from the
colony for one wear and from the gov
eminent for all time. He was surprised,
so the Story goes, upon his own planta-
tion and "clap't into Logg House, and
there kept prisoner until 'he renowned
the Government and took and subscribed
strange oath" Now Sothel was not
only Governor. but maker of Cover
nors. for he was Lord Proprietor. and
as such chartered absolute monarch Of
the soil. if not of the people as we'll. OF
Carolina. But fer all that, the North
CaroIinians would not have him. and his
brother Lord Proprietors would not at
tempt 70 force him on them unWlihhsly'
In 1908, 1909, 1710 and 1711, Glover and
Hyde were turned out, and the Cary Re-
belIion, so called prevailed, until sup
pressed BY 4 militarv force from Vir-
oinia
in 1715 the North Carolina Assembly,
under The lead OF Mosely.
Resolved, That the impressing Of the
inhabitants, or their property, under the
Dretense of its being for the public ser
vice without authority from the Assem-
bly,, was unwarrantable, u great infringe
ment fthe libertv of the subject and
very much weakened the government by
causing man. 10 leave it. This was the
defiance flung by the people. through their
Assembly, publicly. formally and Off
ciallv into the teeth OF Governor Eden
and his Council
Governor burlington wrote officially
to the Board of Trade, saying:
THE people are neither to be cajoled
or outwitted. Whenever a Governor at
tempts TO effect anything by these means
he loses his labour and show his
ignorance. They insist that no
public monev can or ought to be paid
but IT, claim given 10 and allowed by
the House OF Burgesses."
In 1871 the Assembly thus addressed
Governor Burlington:
In answer TO what you EXcellency was
pleased to deliver in writing with the
9th and 47th Articles of His Majesties In
structiOns. we are of opinion that no

Since the organization OF the State His
torical and Literary Association last Oc-
tober there has been renewed interest
in the STUDY of literature in the historic
little city on the Neuse. For sometime
there has been talk among several of our
book lovers OF organizing book club for
mutual improvement along this line. A
few evenings since several of those in
terested met and organized a club to be
known as the Fortnightly Book Club, with
Mr.. T. j. Lassiter as president, and Miss
Matte Pou as secretary and treasurer.
The object of the club is the intellectual
improvement of it's members. The plan
OF work mapped out for this year is the
study of history in general and North
Carolina history in particular, biography,
and general literature, with an occasion
al evening devoted to the popular books
of the day.
The club is composed of about 10 menl-
bers who are thoroughly interested in its
plan OF work and it is hoped that much
good viii result from it's organization.
