Book excerpt: Excerpt from The James Sprunt Historical Publications, Vol. 14: Published Under the Direction of the North Carolina Historical Society Charles Wilson Harris graduated at Princeton in 17 92 and was awarded the Mathematical oration. He then spent one, or two, years with his half - uncle, Dr. Charles Harris. At Favoni, the home Of the latter upon an estate adjoming that of Robert Harris and part of the original property Of the eldest Charles Harris. Here he applied himself to the study Of medicine under his uncle's guidance, apparently with the intention Of entering that profession. Nevertheless, in 1795, at the date Of his election to the tutorship of Mathe maties in the University Of North Carolina, he was teaching in Prince Edward County, Virginia. His letters thereafter, with the notes subjoined, sufficiently outline his life and services. They disclose a character of worth and dignity. At twenty-five years of age he was presiding over the fortunes of the state's infant University and in this role he manifests a maturity unusual even in that period Of our state and national life in which abilities ripened early. The trustees relinquished his services with great reluctance. His seven years of life after entering upon the practice of law at Hali fax were filled with earnest and successful endeavor and undoubtedly would have been crowned with high achieve ment but for his early death.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The James Sprunt Historical Publications, Vol. 14 The Harris letters which appear in this issue of the james sprunt historical publications represent, for the most part, a collection of the letters of Charles Wilson Har ris (b. 1771, d. 1804) to his uncle, Dr. Charles Harris, and to his brother, Robert Wilson Harris. They were do mated by William Shakespeare Harris, a son of Dr. Charles Harris, to the North Carolina Historical Society at an nu known date, but probably before the Civil War. The other Charles Wilson Harris letters, those written during his con nection with the University of N orth Carolina (1795 were found in a bound volume of manuscripts in the early faculty records of the University. They are about ten in number, and along with them have been inserted two Cald well letters to Harris. There are two other Harris letters in addition, one by Robert Harris, father, and one by Rob ert Wilson Harris, brother of Charles Wilson Harris. The sources whence these were obtained are subjects of a foot-note to the respective letters.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The James Sprunt Historical Publications, Vol. 12: Published Under the Direction of the North Carolina Historical Society Few colonies could show a more consistent discontent, more bitter party feeling and personal hostility than did North Oar olina. Even more than its neighbors it suffered from foolish laws and injudicious instructions, as well as from bad govern ors. To the rulers in England and to the Board of Trade it must have seemed a hot-bed of bickering and discontent, yet were the full truth known, as it cannot be for the lack of indisputable evidence, it might be seen that this discontent was due to the attempts of a body of poor but honest settlers to get the most of the circumstances in which they were placed, despite the policy of the rulers in England and the self-seeking activities of their appointees. An understanding of these conditions is essential to follow closely the differences which sprang up between the colony of North Carolina and its mother country and which form the nucleus around which the history of the Royal period is woven.
