    403 on the Twenty-Ninth Day of May, 1919, Robert Bacon, a Life Mem

    EDITOEIAL COMMENT 403 IN MEMORIAM—ROBERT BACON' On the twenty-ninth day of May, 1919, Robert Bacon, a life mem­ ber of the American Society of International Law, and at one time Assistant, and Secretary of State, Ambassador to France, Major, Lieu­ tenant-Colonel, and Colonel in the American Expeditionary forces in France, died, in the fifty-eighth year of his age, in a hospital in the City of New York. The thing at hand he did, and did well, in college, in business, in civil life and in the military service of his country. As undergraduate of Harvard, in the class of his life-long friend Theodore Roosevelt, he was a good student and easily first in athletics. In business he became the partner and confidant of the late John Pierpont Morgan. Appointed Assistant Secretary of State by Secretary Root, that great statesman and competent judge of men said of him and to him: You have proved yourself far more able and forceful than I dared to hope— possessed of courage to take responsibility and conduct great affairs without flinching or the loss of judgment or nerve—competent to fill any post of govern­ ment with distinction and success. More than that, you have had the imagina­ tion to realize the ultimate objects of policy, and tireless energy and enthusiasm and self-devotion in pressing towards those objects, and your brave-hearted cheer­ fulness and power of friendship and steadfast loyalty have been noble and beautiful. I am sure you have a still more distinguished career before you for all who love you to rejoice in.

    University of Pennsylvania Law Review FOUNDED 1852 Formerly American Law Register VOL. 133 JULY 1985 No. 6 ORIGINS OF FEDERAL COMMON LAW: PART TWO* STEWART JAYt Thomas Jefferson wrote Edmund Randolph in August 1799 of the need "to portray at full length the consequences of this new doctrine, that the common law is the law of the US, & that their courts have, of course, jurisdiction co-extensive with that law, that is to say, general over all cases & persons." 1 Closing the letter in the next line, he re- marked, "But, great heavens! Who could have conceived in 1789 that within ten years we should have to combat such wind-mills." 2 Some- what more than a year later, John Marshall commented in a private correspondence: In political controversy it often happens that the precise opinion of the adversary is not understood, & that we are at much labor to disprove propositions which have never been maintained. A stronger evidence of this cannot I think be given than the manner in which the references to the com- mon law have been treated.' © Copyright 1985 by Stewart Jay.

For extensive correspondence between Helen Nicolay Biographical Notes and others regarding a copy of the Gettysburg Address, see Gettysburg Address Correspondence; 1 box, 0.25 cubic feet. Helen Nicolay (1866-1954) Helen Nicolay was born in 1866 to John G. Nicolay and Therena Bates Nicolay in Paris, where her father served as American Consul. In 1869, the Nicolay family returned to the United States. Helen’s academic training was overseen by her father as well as private tutors. Little is known about Helen Nicolay as a young woman, other than that she helped her father and John Hay write their 10-volume Lincoln biography by taking dictation. She began writing her own books after her father’s death in 1901 and had a summer retreat studio in New Hampshire she used for painting and writing. Her best known work is Lincoln’s Secretary: A Biography of John G. Nicolay. In all, she wrote more than 20 books, mostly history and biography, many of which were intended for children. She described her reason for writing in a letter to a young fan—she wrote books to make “history seem alive and interesting to young people.” Helen Nicolay was also a recognized artist. The Lincoln Museum Collection includes two oil paintings of John G. Nicolay painted by Helen Nicolay.

According to Buchanan's latest biographer, Philip S. Klein, "many people remember Buchanan as the bachelor in the Ahite House who either caused the Civil War or who ought, some- how to have prevented it."2 Few people realize that the fifteenth President was singularly well qualified to occupy the White House. Born in 1791, a native of Pennsylvania, Buchanan graduated from Dickinson College in 1809. and was admitted to the bar three years later. With a good knowledge of the law, he served first in the Pennsylvania house arid then for the next ten years as Congressman. After serving as United States Minister to Russia from 1831-1833, he was elevated to the United States Senate.3 By 1844 he had be- come a leading contender for the Democratic nomination for President, and when James K.

  • The Gettysburg Address - a History Lesson

    The Gettysburg Address - a History Lesson

    THE GETTYSBURG ADDRESS - A HISTORY LESSON The year was 1863. America was two years into the bloodiest war in its history. The previous September, at Antietam Creek, Maryland, America lost more sons in battle than any day before or since in our history. At the beginning of 1863 the war had no end in sight, with bloody battle after bloody battle being fought. But by the end of 1863, not only had the fate of the war been decided but the character of a nation was forever changed. That was also the year President Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation in January, the first powerful blow to the institution of slavery. There could be no turning back for America. Those first three days of July 1863 where three days that changed the course of the civil war, and in turn changed future of the Nation. The decisive battle of the Civil War was fought in a small south central town in Pennsylvania. Gettysburg, a sleepy little town of 3500 was the county of seat of Adams County, Pennsylvania and was a light manufacturing center in addition to its agriculture commerce. At one time it was home to a shoe factory. The Confederates knew this and where in desperate needs of food and supplies. They headed for Gettysburg to see if they could find some shoes. Embolden by their past victories the Confederates had daringly come North to force peace on the North. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia and Meade’s Army of the Potomac converged on Gettysburg almost by chance.

According to the custodians of this important resource, this collection is built from digitally scanned images of microfilmed copies of handwritten documents. Many document images link to searchable text transcriptions. With this resource researchers can now access many of these materials with considerable ease, although the quality of some images varies. The collection is organized into six series dating from 1723 to 1836. It in­ cludes a selection of Madison's father's letters, and documents about Madi­ son's early life and duties as a member of the Virginia House of Delegates and the Continental Congress (1779-82). The site documents Madison's impact on the Constitutional Convention of 1787, his work in the House of Rep­ resentatives, and his time as secretary of state during Thomas Jefferson's administration. Correspondence and notes also trace Madison's two terms as the fourth president. According to the Web site, notable correspondents in this col­ lection include Dolley Madison, Thomas Jefferson, James Monroe, Alexan­ der Hamilton, George Washington, Edmund Randolph, and Noah Webster. Access through this American MemoryProject site also provides researchers with a time line of Madison's life (1751-1836), essays, an introduction to his life and papers, a section on Madison and the Federal Constitutional Con­ vention of 1787, and an interesting section on the codes and ciphers Madi­ son employed to keep unauthorized people from reading private and pub­ lic correspondence.
