Today we have another collection of what we call “short stories,” bits of Appalachian history that are interesting but which by themselves won’t make for a full podcast episode. On this episode we tell about a strange substance found at a home in Tom’s Creek, Virginia; a criminal who managed to outwit the court system in West Virginia; a vote on Prohibition in Bristol, Virginia; a jailbreak in North Carolina worthy of an episode of the Andy Griffith show; and a murder trial in eastern Kentucky more than two decades after the crime was committed.
