A doub:Le­ shoulder exterior end chimney occurs at either end. Adjoining. the main block to the west is a secondary structure.. This section is one bay wide and one bay deep and carries a gable roof with boxed eaves A single­ shoulder exterior end chimney occurs on the west end It qontains a single room, and acce ss is gaine d from the bree zeway. On the eas t side of the mai block is a one -story frame addition, two bays wide and one deep, ~vi th a gable roof, and to the rear is a shed roof porch COVEring two of the three bays 0 Both of these addi tions are comparatively recent. The front entrance, in the center bay of the main block, has a molded archi trave _ Covering the entrance is an open-pediment hood ~ ~vhich appears to be a twentieth century addition. The entrance to the smaller section m has flanking, molded panel pilasters supporting a fanlight tvi th an elegant, m radiating geometric design.. The door itself has six raised panels. Fenes­ tration is generally consistent, Axhibiting dimuni tion from nine-over-nine sa.sh to nine-over-six sash The ~vindow surrounds are molded and the second story windows have thick molded sills. The interior of the main block follows a hall-and'-parlor plan, ~vith th entrance opening into the main room. Both the main room and parlor have c: been reworked; they haVB molded' archi traves and a flat board baseboard. (") The mantel in the main room is a curious three-part one with swelling pilas tars and frieze. In the parlor is a simple pilastered mantel of mid-nine­ -f teenth century type G a An enclosed stair ascends from the right front corner of the main room to tJhat is nmv a small hall on the se cond floor.

The molded cornice shelf is embellished with a row of heavy dentil molding. Particularly interesting is the wallpaper, believed to be original, coptaining a brightly colored bouquet of fruit pattern with floral bands at the top and bottom of the paper.

It is a handsome early Federal house to vvhich was added an elaborate late Federal parlor; of particular significance is the remarkably c 0m.Ple te sur vi val of marblei zed v-Toodwork, wallpaper, and carpet, all believed to be original. Rose Hill stands prominently on the Yanceyville-Greensboro Road at Brown I s Store, or Locust Hill as the community became knotm. in the 13408 u IJocust Hill has "safeguarded a small amount of Nort~ Carolina history" :-J . since the late eighteenth century when John Brov-m settled here on the headwaters of Country Line Creek in western Caswell County. 1- Rose Hill was probably built in 1802 (as said to be recorded on a chimney brick) by fJethro Brm,m (1776-1829). Jethro livas a prosperous z planter and tavern keeper v-Fhose tavern was the meeting place in the early nine teenth century of a society "constituted for intellectual improvement, II I one of the two such organizations in the county. His son, Bedford, Hho lJa ... educated at the University of North Carolina, entered politics at the age cf t . tljrenty in 1815 t'Then he was elected to the House of Commons from Cas~Tell (..Ii County. In 1817, follovving the Bedford's marriage, Jethro deeded to him I the. "seat lately occupied bi the said Jethro BroTNTI." The plantation, lo­ cated on Moon's Creek, contained 502 acres and the handsome Federal house Bedford Brown occupied it upon re turning from a wedding t.rip to England and Scotland, financed by his father, with his bride Mary Lumpkin Glenn. Dlrring his political career, which spanned fifty-five years, Bedford Brov-ffi _became one of the best ImOljlTn leaders of the Democratic Party in the South. He served in the North Carolina legislature and distinguished himself in the United States Senate from 1829 to 1840 Follmving a poli tical defeat in 1842, Brov-m and his family sold Rose Hill in 1844 and left North Carolina, liVing for short periods in Hissouri, Virginia, and Maryland.. In 1855 he returned to North Carolina, re-entered political life, and repuTchased Rose Hill, where he remained until his death in 18700 Brown's political leadership ~vas founded on his lifelong devotion to two conflicting principles: those of state rights and allegiance to the Union The greatest battle of his poli tical career 1jvas fought in 1860 and 1861, 1j\Thenhe attempted·:to reconcile the differences behveen North and South Hhile serving in the North Carolina Senate.

  • The Ku Klux Klan in American Politics
    L I B RARY OF THE UN IVERSITY OF ILLINOIS "R3GK. cop. 2. r ILLINOIS HISTORY SURVEY LIBRARY The Ku Klux Klan In American Politics By ARNOLD S. RICE INTRODUCTION BY HARRY GOLDEN Public Affairs Press, Washington, D. C. TO ROSE AND DAVE, JESSIE AND NAT -AND, OF COURSE, TO MARCIA Copyright, 1962, by Public Affairs Press 419 New Jersey Avenue, S. E., Washington 3, D.C. Printed in the United States of America Library of Congress Catalog Card No. 61-8449 Ste3 >. V INTRODUCTION There is something quite frightening about this book. It is not so much that Dr. Rice recounts some of the brutalities and excesses of the Ku Klux Klan or even that he measures the intelligence of those who led the cross-burners as wanting; indeed, those of us who lived through the "kleagling" of the 1920's remember that the Klansmen, while not men, weren't boys either. What is frightening is the amount of practical action the successors to the Klan have learned from it. They have learned not only from the Klan's mistakes but from the Klan's successes. Fortunately, neither the John Birch Society nor the White Citizens Councils nor the revivified Klan nor the McCarthyites have learned well enough to grasp ultimate power. All of them, however, have learned enough so that they are more than an annoyance to the democratic process. Just how successful was the Klan? It never played a crucial role in a national election. The presence of Klansmen on the floor of a national political convention often succeeded in watering down the anti-Klan plank but national candidates, if they chose, could casti- gate the Klan at will.

  • Ch 5 NC Legislature.Indd
    The State Legislature The General Assembly is the oldest governmental body in North Carolina. According to tradition, a “legislative assembly of free holders” met for the first time around 1666. No documentary proof, however, exists proving that this assembly actually met. Provisions for a representative assembly in Proprietary North Carolina can be traced to the Concessions and Agreements, adopted in 1665, which called for an unicameral body composed of the governor, his council and twelve delegates selected annually to sit as a legislature. This system of representation prevailed until 1670, when Albemarle County was divided into three precincts. Berkeley Precinct, Carteret Precinct and Shaftsbury Precinct were apparently each allowed five representatives. Around 1682, four new precincts were created from the original three as the colony’s population grew and the frontier moved westward. The new precincts were usually allotted two representatives, although some were granted more. Beginning with the Assembly of 1723, several of the larger, more important towns were allowed to elect their own representatives. Edenton was the first town granted this privilege, followed by Bath, New Bern, Wilmington, Brunswick, Halifax, Campbellton (Fayetteville), Salisbury, Hillsborough and Tarborough. Around 1735 Albemarle and Bath Counties were dissolved and the precincts became counties. The unicameral legislature continued until around 1697, when a bicameral form was adopted. The governor or chief executive at the time, and his council constituted the upper house. The lower house, the House of Burgesses, was composed of representatives elected from the colony’s various precincts. The lower house could adopt its own rules of procedure and elect its own speaker and other officers.

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

I, Asa Biggs, was born on 4th day of February 1811, so that now I am in the fifty fifth year of my age; and although I have passed through many vicissitudes yet upon a general review of my history I have abundant cause of gratitude and thankfulness to Almighty God for His supporting and directing care and for the eminent success with which I have been able to surmount difficulties and to attain among my fellow men my present distinguished position. I have concluded, my dear children, if time and opportunity are afforded me, to note for your instruction and information some of the incidents of my life, with the hope that this legacy of affection may prove useful and entertaining to you, in the journey of life on which you have entered, and may stimu- late you to a course of conduct in ivhich, on the termination of your journey you may have as much cause to felicitate yourselves as your affectionate father. I shall not write with a view of critical composi- tion, but to detail facts, with such lessons of experience as may suggest themselves as I pass along.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Party Formation in the United States Adissertationsubmittedinpartialsatisfactionofthe requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science by Darin Dion DeWitt 2013 c Copyright by Darin Dion DeWitt 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Party Formation in the United States by Darin Dion DeWitt Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science University of California, Los Angeles, 2013 Professor Thomas Schwartz, Chair This dissertation is about how political parties formed in the world’s first mass democracy, the United States. I trace the process of party formation from the bottom up. First, I ask: How do individuals become engaged in politics and develop political affiliations? In most states, throughout the antebellum era, the county was the primary unit of political admin- istration and electoral representation. Owing to their small size, contiguity, and economic homogeneity, I expect that each county’s active citizens will form a county-wide governing coalition that organizes and dominates local politics. Second, I ask: Which political actor had incentives to lure county organizations into one coalition? I argue that the institutional rules for electing United States Senators – indirect election by state legislature – induced prospective United States Senators to construct a majority coalition in the state legislature. Drawing on nineteenth century newspapers, I construct a new dataset from the minutes of political meetings in three states between 1820 and 1860. I find that United States Senators created state parties out of homogeneous counties. They encouraged cooperation among county-wide governing coalitions by canvassing annual county political meetings, drafting ii and revising a multi-issue policy platform that had the potential to unite a majority of the state’s county governing coalitions, encouraging individual counties to create county- wide committees of correspondence and vigilance, and, finally, organizing a permanent state central committee and regular state-wide conventions.

  • The North Carolina Historical Review
    The North Carolina Historical Review Volume XXXI October, 1954 Number 4 THE NICHOLITES OF NORTH CAROLINA By Kenneth L. Carroll During the last quarter of the eighteenth century there existed in Guilford County a group of people known as the Nicholites. This band of believers, who lived near Deep River, was an off-shoot of a larger body which settled on the Delaware-Maryland border. 1 Like those who remained in Maryland and Delaware, the Nicholites of North Carolina took their name from Joseph Nichols, the founder of their religious society. Joseph Nichols, the little-known spiritual leader whose religious call took him on preaching trips throughout Dela- ware, both shores of Maryland, and to Philadelphia, was born near Dover, Delaware, about 1730. In his youth and early manhood his vivacity and humor led many of his neigh- bors to seek his company, so that on Sundays (or first-days as the Nicholites came to call them) and at other times of leisure many of his companions gathered to share in his entertaining pastime. It was at one of these gatherings for pleasure that one of Nichols's close friends was taken ill and died suddenly at the place where they had assembled. This event was credited by Nichols as having awakened his attention, showing him the uncertainty of life, and bringing about a radical change in 2 his character. When his neighbors gathered around him 1 Concerning the Nicholites in Maryland and Delaware, see Kenneth L.
