    Unduly Harsh and Unworkably Rigid: The Death Penalty in North Carolina, 1910- 1961 Seth Kotch A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2008 Approved by: Advisor: W. Fitzhugh Brundage Reader: Jacquelyn Dowd Hall Reader: John F. Kasson Reader: David Garland Reader: Timothy Marr © 2008 Seth Kotch ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT SETH KOTCH: Unduly Harsh and Unworkably Rigid: The Death Penalty in North Carolina, 1910-1961 (Under the direction of W. Fitzhugh Brundage) Some contemporary observers believe that southern states’ prolific execution record can be traced back to a violent southern past. But an examination of concerns about the pain inflicted by the noose, the electric chair, and the gas chamber; of the complex influence of race on the death penalty process; of recommendations of mercy by jurors and governors’ acts of executive clemency; and of the controversy that these issues raised reveals that the history of the death penalty in North Carolina, the South, and the nation, is much more nuanced. Concerns about pain and its effects on an audience inspired lawmakers to try to make executions less painful and less visible. North Carolina became among the nation’s first adopters of the electric chair and the gas chamber, but failed to dull public interest in executions and focused the conversation about the death penalty on methods rather than motivations. The racism of the Jim Crow South informed the death penalty, and North Carolina disproportionately executed African Americans, especially those who committed crimes against whites.
