This had the desired effect. His first appearance in political life was in the campaign of 1840, when he cast his first vote for "Tippecanoe and Tyler too." He is a man of magnificent abilities, and his life has not been lived " apart unto himself," but his talents and energies have been directed toward the upbuilding of his state, and the uplifting of her people. THOMAS A. GREEN, a member of the banking house of Green, Foy & Co., was born in Newbern, N. C, June 25, 1846, and is a son of Thomas and Annie M. (Curtis) Green, both of Craven county, N. C. The father was a sea captain, being joint owner in the vessel he commanded, which was in the West India trade. He was lost at sea in 1852. Our subject was raised in Newbern, and received his scholastic training in the public schools of that town. At the age of twelve years Mr. Green was "bound out" to Mr. Fred Lane, by his guardian, A. T. Jerkins, Esq., to learn the carpenter's trade. On the 14th day of March, 1862, the city of Newbern was captured by Gen. Burnside, and on that day he was left a barefooted and bare-headed boy, without a penny to call his own. During the war he obtained employment at such odd jobs as he could pick up, and in 1868, having saved his earnings, he engaged in the mercantile business with Capt. Gates, the firm name being Gates & Green. In 1872 Mr. Green purchased the entire business, which he successfully conducted until 1885. In the latter year he became associated in the banking business with the present firm of Green, Foy & Co., he controlling a one-half interest. Early in life he was thrown on his own resources, and the reputation he has won as an able business man is vastly more to his credit than if he had not...

Download or read book George Henry White written by Benjamin R. Justesen and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2012-07-02 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although he was one of the most important African American political leaders during the last decade of the nineteenth century, George Henry White has been one of the least remembered. A North Carolina representative from 1897 to 1901, White was the last man of his race to serve in the Congress during the post-Reconstruction period, and his departure left a void that would go unfilled for nearly thirty years. At once the most acclaimed and reviled symbol of the freed slaves whose cause he heralded, White remains today largely a footnote to history. In this exhaustively researched biography, Benjamin R. Justesen rescues from obscurity the fascinating story of this compelling figure's life and accomplishments. The mixed-race son of a free turpentine farmer, White became a teacher, lawyer, and prosecutor in rural North Carolina. From these modest beginnings he rose in 1896 to become the only black member of the House of Representatives and perhaps the most nationally visible African American politician of his time. White was outspoken in his challenge to racial injustice, but, as Justesen shows, he was no militant racial extremist as antagonistic white democrats charged. His plea was always for simple justice in a nation whose democratic principles he passionately loved. A conservative by philosophy, he was a dedicated Republican to the end. After he retired from Congress, he remained active in the fight against racial discrimination, working with national leaderas of both races, from Booker T. Washington to the founders of the NAACP. Through judicious use of public documents, White's speeches, newspapers, letters, and secondary sources, Justesen creates an authoritative and balanced portrait of this complex man and proves him to be a much more effective leader than previously believed.
Download or read book Wandering to Glory written by Dewitt Boyd Stone and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Wandering to Glory DeWitt Boyd Stone, Jr., pieces together the words of officers and soldiers in an imaginative, nontraditional brigade history of one of the Confederacy's most active combat troops. Stone blends firsthand accounts from a variety of sources to tell the colorful story of Brigadier General Nathan George Shanks Evans and his Tramp Brigade. An independent South Carolina unit never permanently attached to a particular army, Evans's Brigade traveled widely, making its way from one frontline to another and earning its nickname. Stone profiles the unit's accomplished but egotistical commander, who gained fame as a hero at the First Battle of Manassas, and traces its impressive war record, which began at Second Manassas and included its moment of glory at ground zero during the Battle of the Crater, at Petersburg, Virginia. Nearly ten percent of all South Carolinians who fought in the Confederate army were members of Evan's Brigade, which included South Carolina's 17th, 18th, 22nd, and 23rd Regiments, the Macbeth Light Artillery, and the infantry companies of the Holcombe Legion. Later the 26th Regiment of South Carolina Volunteers joined the unit. The troops numbered
Download or read book Long Green written by Eldred E. Prince and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive history of Bright Leaf tobacco culture of any state to appear in fifty years, this book explores tobacco's influence in South Carolina from its beginnings in the colonial period to its heyday at the turn of the century, the impact of the Depression, the New Deal, and World War II, and on to present-day controversies about health risks due to smoking. The book examines the tobacco growers' struggle against the monopolistic practices of manufacturers, explains the failures of the cooperative reform movement and the Hoover administration's farm policies, and describes how Franklin Delano Roosevelt's New Deal rescued southern agriculture from the Depression and forged a lasting and successful partnership between tobacco farmers and government. The technological revolutions of the post-World War II era and subsequent tobacco economy hardships due to increasingly negative public perception of tobacco use are also highlighted.The book details the roles and motives of key individuals in the development of tobacco culture, including firsthand experiences related by farmers and warehousemen, and offers informed speculations on the future of tobacco culture. Long Green allows readers to better understand the full significance of this cash crop in the history and economy of South Carolina and the American South.
