John Brown Dillon was born near Wellsburg, Brooke county, in what is now West Virginia, and not far from Steuhenville, Ohio. When he was an infant his father removed to Belmont county, Ohio, where the son had the limited opportunities of instruction which the rural schools, during the winter terms, afforded, and where he acquired a scant knowledge of reading, writing and arithmetic. At the tender age of nine years he lost his father, when he was thrust upon his own resources and returned to his native county, where he soon became an apprentice to a printer at Charleston. Having acquired some knowledge of the "art preservative" he directed his footsteps toward Cincinnati, his outfit and fortune consisting of his compositors rule and a resolute purpose to use it. It was during the period of his apprenticeship there that he had fostered his affection for the Muses, and developed that passion for poetry, which blossomed so early in sweet and beautiful creations. In 1826 he conceived the poem entitled, "The Burial of the Beautiful," which was produced in the Cincinnati Gazette, and which made him conspicuous as a writer of verse among the young men of that city who paid court to Parnassus. During the year following he was an occasional contributor to Flint's Western Review, and in 1829 he wrote "The Orphan's Lament," which appeared in The Western Souvenir. His poetic adventures continued, and in 1831 he combined with William D. Gallagher, subsequently an editor and author of versatile and graphic power, for the composition of a New Year's lay for the carrier-boy of the Cincinnati Mirror. In that poem the stanzas on The Funeral of the Year were included, beginning: "Come to the funeral of the year! Not with spirits worn by sadness -" From Cincinnati Mr. Dillon removed to Logansport, Indiana, where, between editorial work and diversions at the "case," he prosecuted the studies in which he had been previously engaged, in pursuance of which he made application, was admitted to the bar, and began practicing law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is offered to the consideration of all students of American history, and especially those readers who have neither time nor opportunities to extend their historical inquiries through the very large number of printed volumes and manuscripts from which the facts embodied in this work have been compiled. No attempt has been made either to magnify or to diminish the real significance of any of the facts which are recorded. As a general rule, they are submitted, without comment, to the consideration and judgment of the reader. The exact words in which certain remarkable statutes were enacted, place before the minds of those who may read them, the most authentic evidence of the official opinions of many early American colonial legislators. Historical truths have been, very often, either overlooked or suppressed by different kinds of prejudices, or transformed into errors by the misleading brilliancy of the style of a historian. "Elegance," says Sir William Jones, " on a subject so delicate as Law, must be sacrificed, without mercy, to exactness." (J. B. Dillon)

Download or read book Ponteach Or The Savages of America written by Robert Rogers and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pontiac, or Ponteach, was a Native American leader who made war upon the British in what became known as Pontiac's Rebellion (1763 to 1766). One of the earliest accounts of Pontiac is a play, written in 1766 by the famous frontier soldier Robert Rogers, of the Rangers. Ponteach, or the Savages of America is one of the only early dramatic works composed by an author with personal knowledge of the Indigenous nations of North America. Important both as a literary work and as a historical document, Ponteach interrogates eighteenth-century Europe's widespread ideological constructions of Indigenous peoples as either innocent and noble savages, or monstrous and violent Others. Presented for the first time in a fully annotated edition, Ponteach takes on questions of nationalism, religion, race, cultural identity, gender, and sexuality; the play offers a unique perspective on the Rebellion and on the emergence of Canadian and American identities. Tiffany Potter's edition is supplemented by an introduction that critically and contextually frames the play, as well as by important appendices, including Rogers' ethnographic accounts of the Great Lakes nations.
