Book excerpt: The Lydia R. Baldwin Phelps Papers consist of correspondence, compositions, a certificate, and a biographical note. The papers chiefly reflect her activities as a student at Mount Holyoke Female Seminary in South Hadley, Massachusetts from 1843-1845. In six letters to family members she discusses her studies, domestic work, daily schedule, expenses for the purchase of books, and the food, regulations and religious life at the school. She notes the occurrences of such illnesses as scarlet fever, smallpox, and "lung fever" (tuberculosis) among students, teachers and area residents and discusses her dental problems, Several of the letters mention Mary Lyon's enthusiasm for missionary work and funds raised by teachers and students to support this effort; she also comments on missionary meetings at the Seminary including one where a student who was the daughter of missionaries appeared in native costume. Letters written in June 1844 and July 1845 describe Mountain Day expeditions, one of them featuring lectures by Edward Hitchcock and a number of other Amherst College professors. An additional letter is from Martha Lyman regarding her possible enrollment in the Seminary. Fourteen compositions in the collection reflect English language instruction in writing at the school and concern subjects such as a "Tour to the North Pole," "The Natural Sciences and Mathematics compared," "Popery," and "A Mother's Love." The compositions include some comments by teachers and often reflect the importance of religion at Mount Holyoke. These papers also include a certificate from her minister M. E. White attesting to Phelps' good character and a biographical note from about 1872.

Download or read book Connecticut in the Golden Age of Spiritualism written by Elaine M. Kuzmeskus and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2016-09-26 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the aftermath of the Civil War, distraught Connecticut residents turned to Spiritualism as a means of connecting with their lost loved ones. Daniel Dunglas Home of New London held his first public séance as a teenager in 1851, and he reportedly levitated and handled hot coals without injury. Famous Litchfield native Harriet Beecher Stowe and her husband, Calvin, were believers, and Harriet's sister Isabella Beecher Hooker practiced mediumship. After the death of their son Willie, President Abraham Lincoln and the first lady invited Hartford medium Nettie Colburn Maynard to conduct secret séances at the White House. Even today, believers congregate at the Pine Grove Spiritualist Camp. Author Elaine Kuzmeskus investigates this dramatic, mystical history.
