In his short time in the latter office, Philpott was a key ally in the legislature for Governor Terry Sanford. Sanford originally wished that Philpott would succeed him as governor, but this was cut short by Philpott's sudden death eight months into his term. Early life. Harvey Cloyd Philpott was born on April 6, 1909 in Bassett, Virginia, United States to Benjamin Cabell Philpott Sr. and Daisy Hundley Philpott.

After completing his education, he entered the furniture industry, working in various departments of the United Furniture Corporation and serving as its secretary-treasurer. He eventually rose to become president of the company. In 1955, following the death of his father, Philpott was appointed chairman of the board of United Furniture Corporation. The following year the company, under his direction, launched a new subsidiary, Philpott Furniture Corporation, of which he also became president. He served one term as president of the Southern Furniture 	Harvey Cloyd Philpott

He also served on the board of directors of the Commercial Bank of Lexington and the Mutual Savings and Loan Association in Lexington. From 1946 to 1959 he served on the board of trustees of the Baptist Children's Homes of North Carolina. Political career. Local offices. In 1934 Philpott was elected to the Lexington School Board. He later attributed his interest in politics to his time on the school board. He served on  the board until 1945, acting as chairman for the last two years. In 1945 he was elected Mayor of Lexington. He held the office for four years, and thereafter served on the Lexington Utilities Committee until 1956. Legislative career. In 1953 Philpott was elected to the North Carolina House of Representatives. Over the course of his tenure he served on various House committees, including those on Agriculture, Education, Roads and Highway Safety, Appropriations, and Finance. On June 21, 1955 Governor Luther H. Hodges added Philpott to the North Carolina Advisory Committee on Education—commonly dubbed the Pearsall Committee after its  chairman, Thomas J. Pearsall. The committee's task was to create the state's response to the United States Supreme Court's decision in "Brown v. Board of Education" to mandate the racial integration of public schools. It released its recommendations to the governor in early 1956, advising the state to respect the legality of the Supreme Court's decision but urging the government to refrain from compelling white children to attend integrated schools and establish grants to allow for white children to enroll in segregated white schools. In July 1956 Governor Hodges, heeding the advice of the Pearsall Committee , called the North Carolina General Assembly into special session to discuss its proposals. Philpott joined three other legislators in introducing a joint resolution "of condemnation and protest against oppressive usurpation of power by the Supreme Court of the United States." In 1957 Philpott urged the legislature to adopt a state minimum wage law, arguing that the previous adoption of a federal minimum wage law had spurred economic growth in the American South. Though many conservatives and businessmen were opposed to the measure, Philpott's support helped ensure that a minimum wage statute was adopted. In 1958 Philpott chaired the Commission  of Reorganization of State Government and served as finance director for the North Carolina Democratic Party during that year's election cycle. He supported much of Hodges' legislative program during the 1959 Assembly session, but vacated his House seat later that year. Lieutenant Governor. On January 29, 1960 Philpott declared his candidacy for the office of Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina. In his announcement he declared that he would seek to raise the average income of state residents to match the national earnings average. Terry Sanford, who was launching a candidacy to become Governor of North Carolina, had considered making  Philpott his campaign manager until Philpott announced his own bid for office. The two became friends over the course of their respective bids, and Philpott endorsed Sanford's plans to increase spending on public education. Philpott enjoyed the tacit support of Sanford's campaign manager, Bert Bennett, and the retiring Governor Hodges. In the Democratic primary election he faced C. V. Henkel. He earned 238,353 votes to Henkel's 175,150, thus securing the Democratic nomination. In the general election he faced Republican S. Clyde Eggers. He won 765,519 votes to his opponent's 532,445 votes. Sanford also won his election  and became Governor. The two were sworn-in on January 5, 1961. As Lieutenant Governor, Philpott had the responsibility of making committee appointments in the North Carolina Senate and had considerable influence over the body's workflow. Instead of honoring the tradition of awarding committee chairs to senators with seniority, he appointed first-term Senator Thomas Jackson White—his friend—as Chairman of the Committee on Finance. The 1961 session of the General Assembly had the responsibility of redrawing Congressional districts throughout the state in wake of the 1960 United States census. Philpott made an agreement with presumptive with Speaker  of the State House of Representatives Joseph M. Hunt Jr. before the opening of the session to appoint special committees to draft relevant bills on the matter in each respective house. Contrary to precedent, the committees consisted of 12 Democrats each with no Republicans represented. Philpott acted as Sanford's main ally in the Senate, and Sanford later credited him with helping to convince the General Assembly to raise taxes to increase education funding. He hoped to support Philpott in a bid to succeed him as Governor in 1964. Philpott went on a trip to Hawaii during the last week  of the 1961 legislative session, leaving the responsibility of presiding over the Senate to the president "pro tempore". Death. On the morning of August 16, 1961 at his country residence near High Rock Lake, Philpott became stricken by severe chest and abdominal pains. He walked to a neighboring doctor's cabin, and the doctor called for an ambulance which transported him to N.C. Baptist Hospital in Winston-Salem. Doctors later determined that he was suffering from aortic dissection. He died at 5:45 PM on August 19 at the hospital. A funeral was held on August 21 in Lexington at the  First Baptist Church and Philpott was subsequently buried in Forest Hill Memorial Park. Many newspaper editorials commented on the lost potential of a Philpott candidacy for Governor in 1964. Philpott was the first Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina to die in office during the 20th century, and his death left the office vacant until the election of 1964, as there was no constitutional mechanism to fill the vacancy. His death also prompted questions and debates concerning the gubernatorial order of succession, as it became unclear who would hypothetically assume the governor's office if the Governor of North Carolina died  while there was no sitting Lieutenant Governor. State Senator T. Clarence Stone assumed the responsibility of presiding over the Senate. Philpott's family and friends established a scholarship fund in his name for aspiring Davidson County college students.
