Data SourcesRaleigh Standard 9/3/1835. The official return for Pasquotank County is located in the N.C. Department of Archives and History, and it agrees with the report in the Standard. Perquimans County was not given in the county breakdown provided by the Standard; its votes are derived by subtraction.
Description First District Democrats held a convention around 5/15/1835 and nominated Pipkin, who was then a delegate to the state constitutional convention (Raleigh Standard, 5/29/1835). Pipkin withdrew from the race after 7/8/1835 (Greensboro Patriot, 7/8/1835). Afterwards, newspapers reported that Shepard was running unopposed.
