Interview with Edward J. Hendrick 1/30/79 (In Walter Phillips' Home Interview with Edward J. Hendrick 1/30/79 (in Walter Phillips' home) The first question reads, how were you selected to serve in the Clark administration, and what position did you hold? Well, in 1951, I was chief U.S. probation officer for the eastern district of Pennsylvania, located in the Federal Court House at 9th and Market, in those days, or 9th and Chestnut. I think it was probably mid-November or late Nov­ ember, I received a telephone call one day from...I'm not clear just what the group was, but I'd like to say Greater Philadelphia Movement, but I'm not positive that it's that. But they were seeking, obviously, potential names to provide joe uiarK, wno~was tnen alreaHy^rnayor and was going to come in in January to office, for consideration of department heads, commissioners, and so forth...all commissioner posi­ tions and many other positions in the city were totally new under the new charter. I was asked whether I wished to put my hat in the ring for consideration for commissioner of welfare department. My re­ action was immediately very negative, because the experience that I had had with the Department of Public Welfare under the previous administrations, the Republican administrations, was extremely negative. ' ,V (WMP: What were some of the things that were negative?) Well, when Iper'had a probationer parolee in need of welfare services, it was absolutely useless to call anybody in the Department of Public Welfare. They were very understaffed, they had no services, really, to offer. So, we used to have to go to private agencies like Salvation Army, Pennsylvania Prison Society, or other groups like that. You obtained no services, as far as adults were concerned. Now, of course, if a person needed money, that was not the function of the city Department of Welfare; that was the County Board of Assis­ tance or the state Department of Welfare....I'm not speaking of that entity. (WMP: Who was the head of welfare before the Clark administration?) It was a woman, and bpyT' I want to say^Mrs. McCarthy. I'm not sure about that. But it was a woman, and she wa s .y.her title was not commissioner. (WMP: Was there a board? Was she chairman of an agency?) 2 . No, she was the administrator of the Department of Welfare, which before the Clark administration, contained not only the Department of Public Welfare but Recreation as well. The... under the new administration and the new charter, recreation was split away from welfare. But under the Department of Wel­ fare, they operated the old Camp Happy for a summer camp for youngsters up in the Torresdale area, and the Department of Public Welfare had responsibility for all of the playgrounds in the city, such as they were at that time. Most of them were sandlots. (WMP: There was a Bureau of Recreation, wasn't there...not a department, just a bureau.) That's right, that was a bureau, and the same...the Home for the Indigent, which later became Riverview, and the House of Correction were under what was called a Bureau of Charities and Corrections. That also, was under the Department of Pub­ lic Welfare prior to 1952. Well, I did not submit my name. I was happy where I was; I had 12 years in with the Federal Court system, and I couldn't see the advantage of change. Moreover, I was living at that time in Delaware County. In 1940s, to be a Democrat in Dela­ ware County was...to have no vote! Everything was decided, really, at the primary. Whichever Republican won the primary automatically won the general election. So even though I came from a Democratic tradition, living in Delaware County I thought ...well, I want to have some say as to who's in. So I regis­ tered Republican. So even at that point in time, I was a reg­ istered Republican. J I knew I would have to move, even though I was 500 feet out­ side the city...I lived in Yeadon, but I knew that if I moved into the city, I would have to give up a home that I liked and buy another one in the city. So I gave itup Around the middle of December, I guess it was, I got a call from Randy Wise. And of course, Randy Wise and I had been very close and worked with each other since I first met Randy Wise in 1942. And we've been close over the years,* we were both in naval ser­ vice together, though he was on the East coast and I was on the West Coast, we had comparable positions. He was prison admini­ stration officer for the 3rd Naval District, and I was prison administration officer for the 12th Naval District in San Fran­ cisco. And we had worked together. He called me one day...at that time he was with National Proba­ tion and Parole Association which later became the National Council on Crime and Delinquency. And he was traveling the country at that time, so he used to call me when he'd get into town. He called me this afternoon, and said,"Could yotf meet?" v---- vtft I met him and he told me that he had been asked to indicate his interest in being the Commissioner of Public Welfare. And 3 . f t he said, "If I should be selected, would you come as one of my deputys, because I'm allowed two exempt deputy positions under tHe charter." "Well", I said, "Randy, why don't you see first, whether you do, before I make you a commitment". He was selected, I think toward the end of Dec^mbp.r^. T think it was firmed u p . .6f ' 517^ He came to m e . i t.pi1 v. and frankly, I went through maybe three or four days of soul- searching and conversation with my wife as to whether I did want to or did not want to. Anyhow I made the decision and initially Manny Kaufman and I were selected as his two depu­ ties. Then Randy was....I think Randy was sworn in either the same day as Mayor Clark was sworn in, or maybe the day after...I think the same day. So that was in January. The deputies were really not selected until two or three weeks later. I know I started on the job February 11th of 1952, ...cause I can always remember...I went on the job and the next day was Lincoln's birthday and it was a holiday. And I went home to my wife and I said, "Well, this is not bad. I work one day and already there's a holiday!" That hadn't been a holiday in the federal government. was quickly recognized that the work in the welfare de­ partment would require much more attention than just the com­ missioner and two deputies could handle, because the children's side, from a standpoint of records, accountability as to where the children under the charge of the Department of Welfare were, was almost non-existent. I think the central office of the Department of Public Welfare in 1952, when we came in, occupied the entire -floor ... 4th floor.. .of ..City Hall Annex. And if you were to ask me as to how many people were actually in there, at that time, excluding the recreation division, my recollection would be something like eight or ten...was the entire staff. (WMP: And they had the whole floor?) Had the whole floor. (WMP: What did they do with it?) t4V Well, we were literally rolling around I mean, up in the side facing....on Juniper Street side, was Randy's office, and then - 7 we divided up there, and in addition to...Well, Johannes Hoeber was brought on then. He came on as the third deputy. And Randy, Manny Kaufman, Johannes and myself used to meet every day for two or three hours, you know, planning directions...where we were going from here. In addition to that, the only other people around initially, were a secretary, a switchboard operator, and a woman who gen­ erally handled accounts. Some humorous things we found at that time...there was a tremen- 4 . dous safe in that office. And when Randy finally succeeded in opening it, there was nothing but a couple of old city deeds to city property... in this tremendous safe. But in the drawers of the workers down the hall, were uncashed money orders, cash, payments for children's support....I don't know what the purpose, but there was money loose all over the place, you know, in desk drawers...but nothing valuable in this tremendous safel So those were some of the situations. Now, as I said, I became deputy commissioner and my function was to be adult services...under the charter, it's spelled out under welfare department^^the department would be responsible for all dependent neglected and delinquent children. And then responsible for the aged infirm who were at the Home for the Indigent, or...I was always amused at the....I call it a Phila- delphiaism...the pronunciation. So many people seriously call­ ed it the Home for the Indignant!!! And really, that was my first shock...I think, the first field trip I went out and that was probably within the week of appointment...Randy and I, prob­ ably Manny and Johannes...we went up to inspect the Home for the Indigent.on State Road.

FABRIC SUMMARY: CONSTRUCTION, ALTERATIONS, AND USES OF SPACE (for documentation, see Appendices A and B, by date, and C, by location) Jeffrey A. Cohen § A. Front Building (figs. C3.1 - C3.19) Work began in the 1823 building season, following the commencement of the perimeter walls and preceding that of the cellblocks. In August 1824 all the active stonecutters were employed cutting stones for the front building, though others were idled by a shortage of stone. Twenty-foot walls to the north were added in the 1826 season bounding the warden's yard and the keepers' yard. Construction of the center, the first three wings, the front building and the perimeter walls were largely complete when the building commissioners turned the building over to the Board of Inspectors in July 1829. The half of the building east of the gateway held the residential apartments of the warden. The west side initially had the kitchen, bakery, and other service functions in the basement, apartments for the keepers and a corner meeting room for the inspectors on the main floor, and infirmary rooms on the upper story. The latter were used at first, but in September 1831 the physician criticized their distant location and lack of effective separation, preferring that certain cells in each block be set aside for the sick. By the time Demetz and Blouet visited, about 1836, ill prisoners were separated rather than being placed in a common infirmary, and plans were afoot for a group of cells for the sick, with doors left ajar like others.

  • The Walnut Street Prison: Pennsylvania's First Penitentiary*
    THE WALNUT STREET PRISON: PENNSYLVANIA'S FIRST PENITENTIARY* By LEROY B. DEPUY THE MEDIEVAL fortress on Cherry Hill which is Phila- delphia's Eastern State Penitentiary and the Bastille-like West- ern State Penitentiary at Pittsburgh, each weathered by over a century, appear to moderns as primordial types of prison establish- ments. When first erected, however, these were advanced, even radical, institutions which had developed only after extensive ex- perimentation at Pennsylvania's first State penitentiary, the Walnut Street Prison, for a half century a landmark alongside Independ- ence Square. The parent institution, now forgotten except by a few specialists, played a most significant role, influencing both prison architecture and prison administration in Pennsylvania, in Amer- ica, and in the world. It is perhaps significant that this first of all penitentiaries, an institution which in its own somewhat grisly fashion also brought relief to the oppressed, rubbed shoulders so intimately with the Hall made memorable by the conventions of the founding fathers. It is worth noting, too, that the life span of the Walnut Street Prison matches almost exactly that of Pennsyl- vania's first State constitution, in effect from 1790 to 1838. During a period marked by reforms, enlightened humanitarians in Phila- delphia, chiefly Quakers, came to realize that cruelty of punishment was failing to deter from crime, and at very considerable sacrifice of their own convenience and comfort, initiated at the Walnut Street Prison a new and improved method for dealing with con- *Mr. DePuy, a member of the staff of the Division of Public Records of the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, originally prepared this historical sketch of the old Walnut Street Prison for publication in the Annual Report of the Philadelphia County Prison.

Cluster 3 consists of two portions of Philadelphia immediately to the south and north of the city’s original incorporated boundaries of South Street and Vine Street lying within the City of Philadelphia’s Planning District 1 (figure 1) and exclusive of the areas included in existing historic districts. The northern study area is bounded on the south by Vine Street, by the Delaware River on the east, and Poplar Street and Girard Avenue on the north, and by Fairmount Park and the Parkway (which are contained in existing National Register Historic districts) on the west. This area corresponds to the early nineteenth century districts of Northern Liberties and Spring Garden in the former Philadelphia County before the 1854 Consolidation. The southern study area corresponds to the northernmost areas of the city’s eighteenth and early nineteenth century districts of Moyamensing and Passyunk (before the reconfiguration of these districts in 1848), and is bounded on the north by South Street, on the west by the Schuylkill River, on the south by Washington Avenue and Christian Street, and on the east by 6th Street, and excludes the former district of Southwark because that has been included in a National Register of Historic Places District.

  • THE POLITICS of SLAVERY and FREEDOM in PHILADELPHIA, 1820-1847 a Dissertation Submitted To
    NEITHER NORTHERN NOR SOUTHERN: THE POLITICS OF SLAVERY AND FREEDOM IN PHILADELPHIA, 1820-1847 A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Elliott Drago May, 2017 Examining Committee Members: Andrew Isenberg, Chair, Temple University, History Harvey Neptune, Temple University, History Jessica Roney, Temple University, History Jonathan Wells, University of Michigan, History Judith Giesberg, Villanova University, History Randall Miller, External Member, Saint Joseph’s University, History © Copyright 2017 by Elliott Drago All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the conflict over slavery and freedom in Philadelphia from 1820 to 1847. As the northernmost southern city in a state that bordered three slave states, Philadelphia maintained a long tradition of abolitionism and fugitive slave activity. Conflicts that arose over fugitive slaves and the kidnapping of free African-Americans forced Philadelphians to confront the politics of slavery. This dissertation argues that until 1847, Pennsylvania was in effect a slave state. The work of proslavery groups, namely slave masters, their agents, white and black kidnappers, and local, state, and national political supporters, undermined the ostensible successes of state laws designed to protect the freedom of African-Americans in Pennsylvania. Commonly referred to as “liberty laws,” this legislation exposed the inherent difficulty in determining the free or enslaved status of not only fugitive slaves but also African-American kidnapping victims. By studying the specific fugitive or kidnapping cases that inspired these liberty laws, one finds that time and again African-Americans and their allies forced white politicians to grapple with the reality that Pennsylvania was not a safe-haven for African-Americans, regardless of their condition of bondage or freedom.

  • In Philadelphia from the Proceeds of the Sale of the Walnut Street Plant
    9 THE PLACE OF "THE PHILADELPHIA SOCIETY * FOR ALLEVIATING THE MISERIES OF PUBLIC PRISONS" IN AMERICAN PRISON REFORM By HARRY ELMER BARNES, PH.D., PROFESSOR OF HISTORY, CLARK UNIVERSITY (Continued from the April number) . THE NEW PENITENTIARY , It was due in large part to this memorial of 1818 that an act was passed March 3, 1818, appropriating sixty thousand dollars for building a peniten- tiary at Allegheny on the principle of solitary confinement. This same act au- thorized, but did not command, the sale of the Walnut Street jail, the removal ?f the prisoners to the Arch Street prison, and the erection of a new penitentiary In Philadelphia from the proceeds of the sale of the Walnut Street plant. As no definite action was taken on this authorization of 1818 with respect to build- 1119 a new penitentiary in Philadelphia, the society came forward with the fol- lowing final memorial of 1821, which succeeded in securing the passage of the tlct of March 20, 1821, appropriating one hundred thousand dollars for the Section of a state penitentiary in the county of Philadelphia capable of receiv- Ing two hundred and fifty convicts.

  • Gender, Crime, and Punishment in Antebellum Pennsylvania
    Troublesome Women: Gender, Crime, and Punishment in Antebellum Pennsylvania Erica Rhodes Hayden April 22, 2019 Dr. Erica Rhodes Hayden, Class of 2007, is Associate Professor of History at Trevecca Nazarene University. n March 5, 1851, Elizabeth Wagstaff, an inmate in the female ward of Moyamensing Prison, O Philadelphia County’s jail, was put in a dark cell for being insolent to the keepers. The staff deemed Wagstaff “a great anoyance [sic] to the Prison.” In August of that year, the visiting inspectors were called to observe Wagstaff, as “her conduct is so bad, she keeps the place in Continual Excitement.” In early February 1852, the inspectors were called again to visit Wagstaff because “her conduct is so outrageous that the Keepers cannot do anything with her she [sic] has destroyed the discipline of the prison.” One month later, Wagstaff spent several days in the dark cell for being unruly and refusing to eat. Throughout 1852, Wagstaff plagued the employees with her behavior and thwarted prison order. She was strapped several times for abusing the matron and for noise infractions. Prison officials realized that “good treatment makes her worse” and that “she is so outrageous that she keeps the place in a continual uproar from Morning until night.” In April 1853, she was strapped again for “breaking her door by hamering [sic].”1 After such a record of resistance to prison discipline, it is doubtful that prison officials were upset at the expiration of her sentence on August 9, 1853. Elizabeth Wagstaff was just one of thousands of troublesome women who entered into the criminal justice and prison systems in Pennsylvania during the decades leading up to the Civil War.
