  • Early Puritanism in the Southern and Island Colonies
    Early Puritanism in the Southern and Island Colonies BY BABETTE M. LEVY Preface NE of the pleasant by-products of doing research O work is the realization of how generously help has been given when it was needed. The author owes much to many people who proved their interest in this attempt to see America's past a little more clearly. The Institute of Early American History and Culture gave two grants that enabled me to devote a sabbatical leave and a summer to direct searching of colony and church records. Librarians and archivists have been cooperative beyond the call of regular duty. Not a few scholars have read the study in whole or part to give me the benefit of their knowledge and judgment. I must mention among them Professor Josephine W, Bennett of the Hunter College English Department; Miss Madge McLain, formerly of the Hunter College Classics Department; the late Dr. William W. Rockwell, Librarian Emeritus of Union Theological Seminary, whose vast scholarship and his willingness to share it will remain with all who knew him as long as they have memories; Professor Matthew Spinka of the Hartford Theological Sem- inary; and my mother, who did not allow illness to keep her from listening attentively and critically as I read to her chapter after chapter. All students who are interested 7O AMERICAN ANTIQUARIAN SOCIETY in problems concerning the early churches along the Atlantic seaboard and the occupants of their pulpits are indebted to the labors of Dr. Frederick Lewis Weis and his invaluable compendiums on the clergymen and parishes of the various colonies.

History of the College of the Holy Cross Naval ROTC Unit Introduction In the 90-year history of the Naval Reserve Officer Training Corps (NROTC) program, one of its most challenging periods came in the second half of the Vietnam War and its aftermath when several host colleges and universities terminated their NROTC programs to express opposition to the war. One bright spot for the Navy was the decision of the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts, after a lengthy review, to retain its NROTC program, the only one of the six unrestricted NROTC host institutions in New England to do so.1 The Holy Cross NROTC Unit celebrates its 75th anniversary in 20162 and, to commemorate the event, this history of the Unit has been prepared by the Holy Cross O’Callahan Society.
