Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fort Edward Book: Containing Some Historical Sketches With Illustrations, and Family Records No one can know better, no one can more deeply regret, than the author, the defects and omissions of the present volume. If it has any virtues, they should be ascribed to my esteemed friend, Mr. James D. Keating, the publisher; except for his encouragement, enterprise and industry, it had never been printed; its faults, and they are legion, are all my own. Some of them might have been avoided, but most of them are due to reasons imperative in their nature. The following pages will be found to contain some historical material never before published. For all that is most valuable the author is indebted to many kind friends, and this indebtedness the reader will generally find acknowledged throughout the subsequent pages, but to dare to hope that I have always adequately expressed my obligations in this regard, would be perhaps to dare too much. The subject, "Fort Edward," furnishes a theme sufficient attractive for the pen of a "ready writer." That the town has never had a local historian must be a subject of regret. That some day there will be written, and published, a history of Fort Edward that shall be worthy of the name, is the earnest hope of one who now gives to the world some of the humble gleanings of an unskilled stroller along a classic highway.

This book was released on 2013-06-28 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Survival of the Historically Black Colleges and Universities as edited by North Carolina A&T State University Chancellor Emeritus Edward Fort, conceptualizes the strategies, strategic planning energies, and delivery systems which might be of assistance to HBCU's as they continue to survive in this age of uncertainty. Its insightful chapters, as penned by Fort and a number of his colleagues (including former Presidents and Chancellors of Black campuses) are data driven and experientially based. The challenges encountered by the HBCU leaders are described as multiple and include fiscal accountability and the continued need to assist the public schools as related to the twin problems of the achievement gap and Clark's "Cult of Cultural Deprivation." The author and his colleagues outline viable strategies geared to address these challenges. The latter represent but two of a number of other challenges confronting HBCU's. These include, but are not limited to (1) enrollment competition with majority institutions, (2) cultivation of alumni support, (3) the garnering of fiscal equity via such avenues as increased federal agency and foundation/corporate support. Considerable space is devoted to the critical issue of institutional leadership. Here, strategies and delivery systems are explored as associated with the HBCU leader's aggressive determination to provide the best possible crucible of learning for students attending the institution. The issues of fiscal accountability and its ever-present spectra of prospective gloom and doom lurks as an enemy to be constantly confronted. Many pages are devoted to the conceptualization of prescriptive strategies, which can be applied to present day campus situations. Leaders of historically black campuses can benefit from these writings as these institutions constantly face the heartache of state revenue shortfall, private university funding sources evaporation and the demoralizing impact of cut backs in program, capital construction, and scholarship support. Creativity protocols are described in detail and forward moving processes poised for prospective success enunciated. Navigating the problem of K-12 economic inequality and its impact upon HBCU's is also explored, as well as the need to enhance "leveraging" for federal support, including the United States Department of Agriculture. Ultimately, alumni support is vigorously support, as an HBCU leadership must.

TAXATION AND ASSESSMENTS, INCLUDING SOME OF THE PRINCIPAL TAXPAYERS IN THE EARLY DAYS.--SUPERVISORS' UNIQUE RECORDS. The earliest assessment roll preserved in the town clerk's office is for the year 1820, by which roll it appears that there was at that time in this town, 161 resident taxpayers and eight non-resident taxpayers. Forty-six of the resident taxpayers were assessed for personal property. William Finn was the largest land-owner in town at that time. He was assessed for 4738 acres of land and his personal assessment was for $3,000. The land throughout the town was assessed at the uniform rate of $1.00 per acre, and Mr. Finn was therefore assessed for $7,738, upon which assessment he paid a tax of $30.56. He was not only the largest landowner, but he was also the largest taxpayer in town. In 1826 the town raised for the support of the poor, $150; for town expenses, $199.85; for the support of common schools, $95.04; for county tax, $352.22, and for the collector's fee on school tax, $4.75, making a total levy in town of $801.86. The next year the levy was something less, being only $743.22. In 1830 the aggregate valuation of the resident taxpayers was $177,630. This valuation was reduced four per cent, by the Board of Supervisors, and Ira Parmely, Supervisors' clerk, certified that "there is to be levied in Fort Edward this year (1830) for town expenses, $133.13; for the support of common schools, $101.58; for county tax, $622.40; for collector's fees on school tax, $5.08, a total of $862.19." In 1831 the total assessed acreage was 15,733. The valuation of the real estate was $163,482; the personal assessment was $16,409; the aggregate valuation $179,891; and the total tax was $515.92. In 1832 the aggregate...
