Book excerpt: Excerpt from Celebration of the Two Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary of the Settlement of Suffield, Connecticut, October 12, 13 and 14, 1920: With Sketches From Its Past and Some Record of Its Last Half Century and of Its Present A generation pauses at a milestone of the family and com munity life of an old New England town, commemorates two centuries of civic existence, reviews the lengthening past, recalls its traditions and revives its memories. As life goes on, familiar faces disappear; new figures move and meet upon the ancient streets, another cemetery upon another hill raises its monu ments over other graves, one by one as that generation vanishes. Then its children and its grandchildren, themselves grown to maturity or even passed into the gathering twilight of their lives, pause at another milestone, commemorate another half century of their Old New England town and reread the story of its longer past.

Download or read book A Colossal Hoax written by Scott Tribble and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2008-12-16 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In October 1869, as America stood on the brink of becoming a thoroughly modern nation, workers unearthed what appeared to be a petrified ten-foot giant on a remote farm in upstate New York. The discovery caused a sensation. Over the next several months, newspapers devoted daily headlines to the story and tens of thousands of Americans—including Oliver Wendell Holmes, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and the great showman P. T. Barnum—flocked to see the giant on exhibition. In the colossus, many saw evidence that their continent, and the tiny hamlet of Cardiff, had ties to Biblical history. American science also weighed in on the discovery, and in doing so revealed its own growing pains, including the shortcomings of traditional education, the weaknesses of archaeological methodology, as well as the vexing presence of amateurs and charlatans within its ranks. A national debate ensued over the giant's origins, and was played out in the daily press. Ultimately, the discovery proved to be an elaborate hoax. Still, the story of the Cardiff Giant reveals many things about America in the post-Civil War years. After four years of destruction on an unimagined scale, Americans had increasingly turned their attention to the renewal of progress. But the story of the Cardiff Giant seemed to shed light on a complicated, mysterious past, and for a time scientists, clergymen, newspaper editors, and ordinary Americans struggled to make sense of it. Hucksters, of course, did their best to take advantage of it. The Cardiff Giant was one of the leading questions of the day, and how citizens answered it said much about Americans in 1869 as well as about America more generally.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Celebration of the Two Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary of the Adoption of the First Constitution of the State of Connecticut: By the Connecticut Historical Society and the Towns of Windsor, Hartford, and Wethersfield, Thursday, January 24th, A. D. 1889 The first action of the Connecticut Historical Society with reference to the celebration of the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the adoption of the first Constitution of the State of Connecticut was taken on the third day of January, 1888, when, upon motion of J. F. Morris, it was Voted, That a committee be appointed to prepare a plan looking to the celebration of the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the establishment of the first Constitution in the Connecticut Colony; which anniversary will occur in January, 1889 and that the committee shall report at a future meeting. The following were appointed members of the committee: J. H. Trumbull, J. F, Morris, and C. J. Hoadly. At a meeting of the Society on the third of April, 1888, The committee appointed to consider the matter of a celebration of the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the establishment of the Constitution of Connecticut, reported through Mr. J. F. Morris, but suggested no definite plan. After discussion by the president, Messrs. Morris, Hoadly, Stedman, and Adams, on motion, it was Voted, That S. W. Adams, and Jabez H. Hayden, Esq., of Windsor, be added to the committee, and that it be instructed to prepare an address to the people of the three towns, Windsor, Wethersfield, and Hartford, calling their attention to the matter, and asking their co-operation, the same to be published before the next meeting.

Download or read book Prudence Crandall s Legacy written by Donald E. Williams and published by Wesleyan University Press. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The “compelling and lively” story of a pioneering abolitionist schoolteacher and her far-reaching influence on civil rights and American law (Richard S. Newman, author of Freedom’s Prophet). When Prudence Crandall, a Canterbury, Connecticut schoolteacher, accepted a black woman as a student, she unleashed a storm of controversy that catapulted her to national notoriety, and drew the attention of the most significant pro- and anti-slavery activists of the early nineteenth century. The Connecticut state legislature passed its infamous Black Law in an attempt to close down her school. Crandall was arrested and jailed—but her legal legacy had a lasting impact. Crandall v. State was the first full-throated civil rights case in U.S. history. The arguments by attorneys in Crandall played a role in two of the most fateful Supreme Court decisions, Dred Scott v. Sandford, and the landmark case of Brown v. Board of Education. In this book, author and lawyer Donald E. Williams Jr. marshals a wealth of detail concerning the life and work of Prudence Crandall, her unique role in the fight for civil rights, and her influence on legal arguments for equality in America that, in the words of Brown v. Board attorney Jack Greenberg, “serves to remind us once more about how close in time America is to the darkest days of our history.” “The book offers substantive and well-rounded portraits of abolitionists, colonizationists, and opponents of black equality―portraits that really dig beneath the surface to explain the individuals’ motivations, weaknesses, politics, and life paths.” ―The New England Quarterly “Taking readers from Connecticut schoolrooms to the highest court in the land, [Williams] gives us heroes and villains, triumph and tragedy, equity and injustice on the rough road to full freedom.” —Richard S. Newman, author of Freedom’s Prophet
