Rep. Harold Brubaker remembers things differently.

On the stand yesterday, former Speaker Jim Black told a damning story about the Randolph County Republican's time as speaker in 1997.

According to Black, Brubaker wooed then Rep. Robert Brawley Jr., an Iredell County Republican. Black said that Brawley wanted a $300,000 contribution to his children's trust fund.

But Brubaker told the Greensboro News & Record that wasn't the case:

"First of all, I don't do that. That's something I've never been involved in,'' Brubaker said during an interview at his legislative office. "I was shocked when I heard about that."

Brawley, meantime, had his own version of events. 

More after the jump.
