Excerpt from The North Carolina Historical Review, Vol. 4: Issued Quarterly; Numbers 1-4, January-October 1927 Nothing was accomplished under the resolution, but the Legislature of 1848-1849, after hearing read a letter Of George Bancroft to Swain, on the North Carolina records in England, passed a resolution empowering the Governor to secure copies Of them and to expend if necessary one thousand dollars for the purpose. TO appreciate fully the significance of this act, one must recall the fact not only of North Carolina's oft-boasted economical strain, but also that one thousand dollars was a very respectable sum of money in that day.
