The Murder of Laura Foster

“The Ballad of Tom Dooley” is one of the most well-known folk ballads to come out of Appalachia but it’s based on a real murder. Tom Dula was a Confederate soldier and rumored ladies man who had a fling with his neighbor Anne when he was only 12. 

After the war, he met Anne’s cousin Laura and began a relationship with her. She got pregnant and they made plans to elope. In 1866, Laura was found stabbed in the chest. Dula fled the state before being captured. 

He was held in the Wilkes County Jail, pictured above, leading up to his trial. The former governor Zebulon Vance represented him pro bono and maintained that Dula was innocent. But Dula was ultimately convicted and executed two years later. The curious can now visit the cell where he was held and his grave nearby.

There are a few theories about what truly happened including Laura being killed by a jealous Anne. Another claims that Dula killed Laura for giving him syphilis. Whatever the case, the events inspired the song, which was recorded by The Kingston Trio in 1958.

On June 18, 1866, the body of Laura Foster was found in a shallow grave in Wilkes County.  She had been stabbed in the chest and reportedly was pregnant at the time of her death.

Foster had last been seen on May 25 riding a horse down Stony Fork Road.  Tom Dula, who had liaisons with both Foster and Ann Melton, was charged with her murder.  Dula, a Confederate veteran, was returned to North Carolina from Tennessee, where he had fled.

Melton and Dula were brought to trial for murder during the fall term of Wilkes County court, but a change of venue moved the trial to Iredell County.  Dula was convicted but Melton was found not guilty.  The North Carolina Supreme Court overturned Dula’s conviction and he was tried again in January 1868 only to be convicted a second time.  This time the verdict was sustained by the Supreme Court.

Dula was hanged in May 1868 in Statesville.  The subject of mountain folk ballads sung even before his execution, Dula and Foster were immortalized in the best-selling “ Tom Dooley,” recorded by the Kingston Trio in 1958.

Seeing as we’ve been posting a lot about festivals recently..

Leeds festival 2015 was fairly quiet after DJs and bands finished last year..Some of us at New Vibez found ourselves wondering round at 4am thinking it’s rather quiet, where was the out of tune shouting/singing we were used to hearing until 6am?

Festival Republic, who runs Leeds & Reading Festival removed the Silent Disco from it's northern festival but kept it its "twin" festival, Reading. Fan of the disco, Laura Jade Foster took to petition website, Change.org for support in getting it returned to Leeds Festival. Over 1,000 signatures later Reading & Leeds announced that the Silent Disco tent would be returning for 2016! Well done Laura and well done to everyone who signed it! New Vibez will catch dancing to some cheesy tunes there this year!
