In 1850, the Superior Courts Of
Pleas and Grand Sessions were estab-
lished. These courts were presided
over by the Chief Justice and three
associate Justices appointed by the
Governor and met twice a year in
Newbern, Wilmington, Edenton, Hall
fax and Salisbury Districts and sat
for ten days.\
(Col. Records, Vol. rs page 433.)
In 1862, the Superior Courts of
Justice were established. The pro-
vince was divided into five judicial
districts: Wilmington, Newbern,
Edenton, Halifax and Salisbury, and
in each district was established a
Superior Court of Justice. The Court
consisted of the Chief Justice and
associate Justice in the district, except
in the district of Salisbury, where, on
account if its remote distance, an
assistant Judge was appointed, with
full power of the Chief Justice, when
he was unable to be present. Provision
was made for %juries, to consist OF SIX
men, both for the grand and the petit
Jury. A Clerk of the Court was pro-
vided for under appointment OF the
Chief Justice. These were courts OF
final jurisdiction.

In 1857, a new court law was
passed, Hillsboro was added as a
judicial district and in each of the
six districts, court was held by the
Chief Justice and two associates
These courts, while called superior
Courts, were really Supreme Courts.
All members of the Court travelled
to the districts. The same judges pre-
sided over the nisi prius courts and
the appellate courts at the same place.
This system is the basis of GU modern
system of superior courts. The name
was changed in 1777 to Superior
Courts of Law, and then in 1882, to
Superior Courts of Laws and Equity.
In 1868, all distinctions between
matters of law and equity were abo-
lished and one form of action Prescrl-

the General Assembly and left the
Province without any provision for

Der, 1877, there were no higher courts
in North Carolina. Turmoil and con-
fusion set in, with unbridled license
and crime abroad, resulting in a reign
of terror. During this time, the first
State Congress met at Hillsboro and
adopted a form of provisional govern

were composed of bold, intrepid spirits

of great influence in paving the way

NEW POWER PLANT READY
IN SHORT TINE

It is expected that delivery of
power to Baltimore from the
new Safe Harbor development
will begin in a short time.
Construction on the power
plant and dam is in its final
stages, as is the building Of the
new receiving station at Balti-
more, which is necessary for
the reception Of the large adj
ditional block Of electrical en-
ergy. The transmission line
from Safe Harbor to Baltimore
is already virtually completed.
New interconnections to re-
suit from the operation Of the
Safe Harbor plant will form a
regional power system with
generating resources Of 100000
horsepower, which will be cap
able of increase to 1000, 200
horsepower.
The chief purpose of this
power pool" will be to provide
for the electrification require
ments of the Pennsylvania rail
road, with which the CONSOLE
dated Co., of Baltimore, has
entered into a twenty year
contract, covering territory be-
tween the Susquehanna river
and Washington.

FIRE CAUSED BY DEFEC-
TIVE CHIMNEY

The frame dwelling on the
Grant Boyd farm, near Eben-
ezer Church, now owned by
George DeHaven, was destroy
ed by fire on Saturday morning.
The Community Fire Company
was called to the scene about
seven O'Clock, but the flames
had made such Roadway, and
there being no water supply, it
was impossible to save the
building. Most of the house
hold effects were saved.
The Fire Company had been
called TO the place the after
noon before, when the chimney
caught fire. The blaze was
soon extinguished and instruc-
lions left by firemen TO thor
oughly clean the chimney, as
it was badly clogged with SCOT.
Shortly before seven o'clock
Friday morning a member of
the family was awakened by
smoke, and making a hasty in
vestigation discovered the roof,
near the chimney, to be on
fire, and gave the alarm. The
flames spread rapidly, the fam
lily and those who assembled
being able to save the house
hold goods only. There was a
small insurance on the house.

lowering themselves to the
ground on the outside with the
rope.
Anderson was being held for
Court, while Smith was wait
ing to be taken to the House OF
Correction to serve, a six

of their escape.
Sheriff Albert Buckworth re-
ports he has as yet obtained no

SCARCITY OF RABBITS is
LAID TO PHEASANTS

Many sportsmen who have
noted the scarcity of rabbits
have expressed the opinion
that the ringneck pheasants
may be responsible for the de-
struction OF, the cottontails.
The pheasant, it is pointed
out, preys on young rabbits.
Since the liberation Of these
pheasants several years ago by
the State Game Department,
the birds have multiplied in ali
sections, while, there has been
a decrease in the supply of
rabbits.
