The Bookman tells a story about an
office boy whose share of the days
work is confined largely to sorting ex-
changes. There was sudden need of
information of a medical nature, and
the boy was sent for and asked if any
medical periodical came in. At first
he shook his head. Then after a mo-
ments thought a light broke over his
face yes" he said, there was one
medical publication. 1t was called the

WHIPPING POST AND STOCKS

Raleigh Correspondence Charlotte OBJ


Up until the end of the war and
little while after the whipping post and
stocks stood not far from the north
west corner of the court house and be-
tween that building and the present
postoffice, and there the last whipping
took place. though as 1T began 1t was
sought to be stopped by a federal of
fcer The sheriff was, however. simply
carrying out the mandate of the old
court of pleas and quarter sessions.
In those days the stocks and the
whipping post. too, We're special attrac-
lions, notably TO boys The latter We're
allowed to ridicule people who sat in
the Stocks which held their hands and
feet. but not to throw anything at
them.
or course this deprived the boys of
some degree of pleasure, yet they con-
trived to get u good deal of fun out of
the thing anyway. 1T seems odd now
even to think of such scenes as these
must have been. Figure TO yourself
