Book excerpt: Excerpt from Publications of the Southern History Association, Vol. 3 It cannot be determined from exterior inspection whether a given mound is mortuary or not. The largest mound at Apopka* contained nothing whatever, and was built for pur poses other than entombment, possibly for domiciliary or ceremonial uses. It will be remembered that Florida is on the whole very flat, and even a slight elevation would prove useful as a lookout station or for signaling purposes by means of fire. From the summit of this great mound not only was a wide stretch of the surrounding country brought into view, but a great portion of the lake was rendered vis ible.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Southern Historical Society Papers, Vol. 3: January to June, 1877 The first and second chapters are devoted to the capture by Farragut of Forts Morgan and Gaines and Powell. Though they are not very accurate, we let them pass. Chapter four is very short, but it contains as many errors as can Well be found in any other chapter not longer. It vindicates, as the author thinks, Canby's selection of his base of operations, which was made upon the eastern shore of Mobile bay, and from which he operated against detached outworks of comparatively little importance.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Publications of the Historical Society, Vol. 3: Of Southern California (Annual Publication of 1893-94-95-96;) The story of the terrible blight that destroyed many of our vine yards should be written the story of the growth of our wine, brandy and raisin industries, of our citrus orchards, of our fruit industries generally - all should be written and made as complete as possible. We should also keep a correct record of local current events. Diaries kept with that object in view would hereafter be invaluable from a historical point of View. The brightest glimpses of the time in which our ancestors lived are given by some of the diaries then written. There is scarcely anything that transpires within our experience that is not worth making a note of when possible. Let the man who erects a building and he who buries a friend, or he who plants a tree, write the story of the event, and, with a com or other token, seal it in glass and place it where, beneath the wall or in the grave, it will make its revelation to the future discoverer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Southern Whigs, 1834-1854 While the function of government is to adjust society to its environment and to adjust groups and individuals within society to one another, and the function of politics is to readjust society in response to changes in the condi tions of life, the adjustment and readjustment are never perfect. Political problems are never fully solved, but always in the process of solution. They could be fully solved only if men's knowledge, intelligence, and self control were perfect, and if men's conditions, interests, and aims were harmonious. Since these are never so, there is never a cessation of political strife, but only an occasional abatement. When, in a republic, relatively permanent differences of condition and interest set off one large ele ment of the people against another, each lull in politics, each era of good feeling, is likely to be succeeded by a revival of the same alignments as before, and a renewal of strife on much the same grounds.

Download or read book Papers of the American Historical Association Vol 2 Classic Reprint written by American Historical Association and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Papers of the American Historical Association, Vol. 2 On the 10th of September, 1884, a little company of historical specialists and their friends assembled in Saratoga to organize an American Historical Association. Forty members were then enrolled. At its third convention the Association numbered over four hundred members, including seventy-five life-members. This body of men and women is a select body. Every one has been chosen by vote of an executive council, and no one has joined by simple application or the mere payment of a membership fee to the treasurer. A careful inspection of the list of elected members will show that the character of the American Historical Association is worthy of its name. Neither local nor provincial, it is a truly national union of the best friends of history in America. It is a striking evidence of the national aims of this growing Association, that it should so early have advanced upon Washington. Two annual meetings were held at Saratoga, where, in September, 1885, among other papers, were read descriptions of those local events which there determined our national independence.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Souvenir History of the New England Southern Conference, Vol. 1 of 3: New Bedford District This History calls attention anew (as many a pastor has found in searching for historical data) to the very important Disciplinary ques tion, Are the records properly kept? Many cases have come under my observation where great and important church projects have been carried out, but not a line can be found in the church records concern ing them. Doubtless many a pastor will look in vain for some refer ence to a successful work done in a former charge - simply because the present pastor in preparing the historical sketch for this work found nothing on the records to indicate such a work. The pictures of distinguished Methodist ministers formerly mem bers of our Conference will be an interesting feature. More will ap pear in Volumes II. And III. We doubt if there is another such a Conference in Methodism that has furnished other Conferences with SO many of their ablest ministers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The James Sprunt Historical Publications, Vol. 11: Published Under the Direction of the North Carolina Historical Society The early settlers of the New England Colonies belonged to the great middle class of Old England and came chie y from the towns, while the early colonists of Virginia, purely English, belonging to the upper and middle classes of the mother country came in the main from the rural districts, and brought with them a large body of servants, who were Sprung from the very lowest classes of England. This approach to white slavery in Virginia was abandoned with the introduction of negroes, but the poor whites then occupied a condition of life scarcely preferable to that of the slave. '1 he result was that in Virginia the upper class grasped the reins of government at the start and held them, While in New England, on the contrary, the mass of the people.

Download or read book Secrets of the Old Biloxi Cemetery written by John Cuevas and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2021-07-19 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The countryside between Mobile and New Orleans teems with memorials, but few historic spots occasion pause for reflection like the Old Biloxi Cemetery. Burials go back to the eighteenth-century French settlement, when Biloxi was the planned capital of the Louisiana territory. Secrets abound in the old cemetery--not exactly buried, since many prominent inhabitants sealed unsolved mysteries with their final remains in the aboveground tombs developed here. Author John Cuevas explores the fascinating history of the cemetery, including the massive restoration of the iconic resting place of his ancestor Juan de Cuevas, great-grandfather to more than nine thousand Gulf Coast families.
