Eller House, Greenville, North Carolina, 27858. Cover: Portion of the James Wimble map of North Carolina (1738) showing location of the Scuppernong River (North Carolina State Archives). Cover design concept: Nadine Kopp. ii DEDICATION This publication is dedicated to the people of Columbia, for their unwavering hospitality during the 2011 Scuppernong River Project. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This project and the products that have emerged from it would not have been possible without the assistance of a congregation of people from a host of institutions across eastern North Carolina. From the outset, this project was designed with collaboration at its core. In investigating the history and archaeology of Tyrrell County, we wanted this to be a project that left something for the people of the area to have once we packed up and returned from where we came. We hope that our work lives up to their expectations. At the UNC-Coastal Studies Institute, John McCord and David Sybert were involved in every facet of the project; not only did they coordinate local outreach and education events (in conjunction with Lauren Heesemann, NOAA) and film activities for a short documentary, but they also “took the plunge” when instrumentation disappeared into the tea-stained Scuppernong.

Utilities Commission Hearing Schedule • UNC Board of Governors • Other Meetings and Events of Interest News Summary Special Legislative Election Voters who successfully sued to strike down nearly 30 North Carolina General Assembly districts told a federal court Friday they want new maps drawn by late January and a special legislative election sometime in 2017. The lawyers for the voters filed a short report laying out an accelerated schedule they want the legislature to follow to replace the current boundaries. Republican legislative leaders, through their attorneys, offered their own competing proposal earlier Friday that would give them until next July to enact new maps and until November 2018 to hold elections, which would be in keeping with the current biennial schedule. A three-judge panel last month determined 19 House and nine Senate districts were illegal racial gerrymanders. The judges decided it was too late in the election cycle to redraw new maps and conduct elections under them in November, so instead they directed the General Assembly to retool the districts in the 2017-2018 session.
