  • Eloquent Arguments of Thomas Jefferson Still Resonate by Matthew Rodriguez July 4, 2004
    Eloquent Arguments of Thomas Jefferson Still Resonate by Matthew Rodriguez July 4, 2004 Seattle Times staff reporter "Thomas Jefferson survives," were the last words uttered by John Adams, unaware that his colleague had died hours earlier on July 4, 1826, 50 years after the Declaration of Independence was approved by the Continental Congress. But in a sense, Adams was right: 228 years after America declared its independence, Jefferson's legacy lives on in the Declaration of Independence, which has inspired numerous movements to- ward equality and has become, as one professor put it, an acid test of the American ideal. "From that moment on, Americans kept on testing themselves," said Paul Gilje, a history professor at the University of Oklahoma. "It is something which then dictates the rest of the course of Ameri- can history." The Declaration of Independence was written during a crucial time in the rebellion, a time when the ire of colonists had recently shifted from the king's subordinates to the king himself, according to Pauline Maier's book, "American Scripture." The Second Continental Congress, the federal legislature of the Thirteen Colonies and the body that edited and approved the Declaration of Independence, convened in 1775 after battles with the British at Lexington and Concord, Mass. While the fighting strengthened the most radical element of Congress, the delegates only gradually came to the momentous step of declaring independence. As the British army amassed, a Committee of Five was appointed to draft a document that would clearly state the colonists' intentions, Maier writes. The committee met once or twice, according to Adams' account, between June 11 and June 28, 1776, before turning their outline over to Jefferson, the lead draftsman, Maier said.

  • George Wythe
    GEORGE WYTHE- By L. S. HERRINK, A. B. The Virginian of a century and a quarter ago was inclined, even more than his descendant of the present day, to pride himself on his family history. Judged by this standard, George Wythe would suffer no disparagement, for at the time of his birth in 1726, the Wythe family was one of the most prominent in Eliza­ beth City countY.l His father, Thomas Wythe, was third in descent from the original Thomas Wythe, who had emigrated from England to Elizabeth City county about the middle of the seventeenth century. Each succeeding generation had been prominent in local affairs. 2 George's father was a member of the House of Burgesses and for many years represented his county in that capacity. He owned a plantation on Back River and seems to have been a man of considerable means. Of his private life very little is known, but he was famed for his amiable character, his simplicity and candor of behavior, his parental tenderness, and his prudence in the management of his fortune. a His mother was one of the five daughters of George Keith, a Scotch Quaker, distinguished as a mathematician and Oriental scholar, who immigrated to Hampton, Virginia, about 1684. Keith held radical views in regard to religion and slavery. He was the author of "Exhortation and Caution Against Buying or Keeping Negroes," seemingly the earliest Quaker protest against slavery, and of a treatise on mathematical subjects. 4 -Awarded the Bennett History Meda.l for 1911. lJefferson, P apers 1., 14., 205.

  • The Lee Family and Freedom of the Press in Virginia the Free Press Clause in the First Amendment to the U.S
    ROGER MELLEN The Lee Family and Freedom of the Press in Virginia The free press clause in the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution is considered a unique and important part of our American democracy. While the origins of this right are a key to current legal interpretations, there is much misunderstanding about its genesis. This research uses eighteenth-century personal correspondence, other archival evidence, and published articles to demonstrate new connections between the Lee family of Virginia and the constitutional right to a free press. The important tradition of freedom of the press in the United of Virginia led Madison to pledge proposing a bill of rights if States owes a greater debt to one important family in Virginia than he were elected to Congress.2 When he did join the new House has been previously recognized. When we reflect upon the origins of of Representatives, Madison did as promised and composed the the right to freedom of the press, we tend to remember John Locke, amendments. He had as his template objections voiced to the new John Milton, James Madison, or even Thomas Jefferson. Delving a Constitution by the state ratifying conventions and the bills of bit more deeply, we might even connect to George Mason and the rights passed by many of the states, including the groundbreaking Virginia Declaration of Rights—the first time press freedom was Declaration of Rights of Virginia.3 enshrined within a bill of rights. Looking at British political roots, In the years since the states ratified the First Amendment, we may even link the concept to Sir William Blackstone, Lord many historians and legal theorists have tried to determine Bolingbroke, Cato (John Trenchard and Thomas Gordon), or John its original intent, especially with regards to seditious libel (or Wilkes.

  • 1969 Proposed Legislation. Jackson Skillfully Employed Presidential Per
    1969 BOOK REVIEWS 203 proposed legislation. Jackson skillfully employed Presidential per- suasion to bring appointments of friendly congressmen tocommittees and to whip wavering party members into line. As he campaigned against the BUS in 1832-33, Jackson claimed that only the Presidency was the true representative of the people. Finally he used the power of the Presidency to consolidate the party and to assert the President as the unchallenged party leader. With the end of the Bank War Jackson had transformed the character of the President from the prototype of a prime minister into an office of assertative leadership so necessary for the effective operation of democratic government. This volume is indeed a fine study. The author vividly portrays the principals involved in the fight and superbly captures the drama of the struggle. He explains with considerable clarity the complexities of finance and politics. Though he essentially views the war from the cockpit of the White House, Remini has written a well-balanced and judicious account. Furthermore he supplies an extensive bibliography which includes the more recent scholarship. The Bank War willneed no other history for some time. Indiana University of Pennsylvania W.
