1909Best.-Nr. 399497Lumberton N.C.: Lumbee Publishing Company / Freeman Printing Company 1909. Softcover. Near Fine. Fourth edition of the Norment account; and first edition with the updated history of Robeson County with particular emphasis on the Tuscarora and Lumbee Indians by Olds. Octavo. 192pp. illustrated from photographs. Illustrated printed brown wrappers. Slight loss at the spine ends but a handsome else near fine copy. Henry Berry Lowrie of mixed Native American Portuguese and probably African-American blood was made an outlaw in part to escape conscription in the Confederate forces in the Civil War and for possessing firearms which mixed race people were forbidden to own since the Nat Turner Rebellion and led a gang of similarly stigmatized blacks and Native Americans in North Carolina and was considered something of a Robin Hood figure. After the War Lowrie and his gang while by no means angels engaging in robbery and murder of establishment figures fought against the reinforcement of white supremacy by reconstruction officials and gained the sympathy and protection of the non-white population. While most of the gang was eventually killed or captured Henry Berry Lowrie's fate in true legendary fashion was disputed: some saying he died cleaning his shotgun others that he escaped and was occasionally seen in the area. This initial account by Mary Norment whose husband was killed by the Lowries while unsympathetic is nevertheless compelling. Usually found rebound and this copy is very scarce the wrappers.
