Book excerpt: Excerpt from The James Sprunt Historical Publications, Vol. 14: Published Under the Direction of the North Carolina Historical Society Charles Wilson Harris graduated at Princeton in 17 92 and was awarded the Mathematical oration. He then spent one, or two, years with his half - uncle, Dr. Charles Harris. At Favoni, the home Of the latter upon an estate adjoming that of Robert Harris and part of the original property Of the eldest Charles Harris. Here he applied himself to the study Of medicine under his uncle's guidance, apparently with the intention Of entering that profession. Nevertheless, in 1795, at the date Of his election to the tutorship of Mathe maties in the University Of North Carolina, he was teaching in Prince Edward County, Virginia. His letters thereafter, with the notes subjoined, sufficiently outline his life and services. They disclose a character of worth and dignity. At twenty-five years of age he was presiding over the fortunes of the state's infant University and in this role he manifests a maturity unusual even in that period Of our state and national life in which abilities ripened early. The trustees relinquished his services with great reluctance. His seven years of life after entering upon the practice of law at Hali fax were filled with earnest and successful endeavor and undoubtedly would have been crowned with high achieve ment but for his early death.

They are about ten in number, and along with them have been inserted two Cald well letters to Harris.

Download or read book Texas Divided written by James Marten and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Civil War hardly scratched the Confederate state of Texas. Thousands of Texans died on battlefields hundreds of miles to the east, of course, but the war did not destroy Texas's farms or plantations or her few miles of railroads. Although unchallenged from without, Confederate Texans faced challenges from within—from fellow Texans who opposed their cause. Dissension sprang from a multitude of seeds. It emerged from prewar political and ethnic differences; it surfaced after wartime hardships and potential danger wore down the resistance of less-than-enthusiastic rebels; it flourished, as some reaped huge profits from the bizarre war economy of Texas. Texas Divided is neither the history of the Civil War in Texas, nor of secession or Reconstruction. Rather, it is the history of men dealing with the sometimes fragmented southern society in which they lived—some fighting to change it, others to preserve it—and an examination of the lines that divided Texas and Texans during the sectional conflict of the nineteenth century.
