LEAMON T he Search for Security Maine after Penobscot The Penobscot campaign of 1779 made little impact on the military outcome of the American Revolution. The focus of military action was shifting to the southern states when the British seized Bagaduce (Castine) at the mouth of the Penobscot River and defeated the expedition dispatched by Massachusetts to drive them out.1 For people in the District of Maine, however, the Penobscot defeat represented a calamity of the first order. During the rest of the war, they had to contend with a garrison of regular British troops in their midst. To Bagaduce flocked loyalists who, with a vigor sharpened by vengeance, joined the regulars in plundering the coast. Active loyalist participation injected a new note of personal vindictiveness in what now became a civil war. Amid internal dissension and a growing sense of isolation and despair, unified defense collapsed throughout the District. -

Loyalists in New Hampshire During the American Revolution
Wesleyan University The Honors College Those “Inimical to the American Cause”: Loyalists in New Hampshire during the American Revolution by Eric Spierer Class of 2010 A thesis submitted to the faculty of Wesleyan University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts with Departmental Honors in History Middletown, Connecticut April, 2010 Table of Contents Acknowledgements 3 A Note on Terms, Spelling, and Abbreviations 6 Introduction 8 Chapter One: A New Political Reality 19 Chapter Two: The ―Cause of Liberty‖ the Imprisonment of Loyalists 52 Chapter Three: ―the Cries of my Wife and Sufforing Babes‖ 69 Conclusion: Loyalist or Not? 102 Bibliography 113 2 Acknowledgements ―Research, of course, is no substitute for wisdom The sum of a million facts is not the truth,‖ wrote William Manchester in The Death of a President. He was right: research and facts cannot replace wisdom and truth. This is why budding historians need help—and lots of it—to combine their research and their ideas into an original thesis that hopefully grasps at the smallest bit of wisdom and truth. The kind and knowledgeable staff members of the New Hampshire State Archives deserve my ultimate praise and appreciation for their help with this project. I especially valued the advice and guidance I received from my many conversations with State Archivist Dr. Frank Mevers, whose willingness to help was unwavering. Brian Nelson and Benoit Shoja were generous with their time and patience when I needed help finding a source or could not decipher the eighteenth century script. The staff at the New Hampshire Historical Society, and particularly Bill Copeley, was repeatedly helpful during my frequent trips. -
Ernest Martin Hopkins ʻ01 President, Emeritus
Ernest Martin Hopkins ʻ01 President, Emeritus An interview conducted by Edward Connery Lathem ʻ51 Hanover, NH February 21- March 14, 1958 Reels 1-9 Rauner Special Collections Library Dartmouth College Hanover, NH Ernest Martin Hopkins Interview Reel #1 Hopkins: I'm very apologetic for being late, but every time I have a definite appointment, I get hung up on the telephone. Watson: But I got hung up in a different way. Just as I was getting in my car, my trousers got caught on a piece of broken metal at the back of the car. Professor Sadler ran into it yesterday – and ripped my trouser leg right down so I had to rush back and change my pants. Hopkins: I'm sorry for the cause, but I'm kind of glad you were delayed. This was an interesting telephone conversation. It was with a fellow named Gordon who is the head of the company that made the silver bowl and he just wanted some assurance it was all right and so forth. He's a very, very attractive fellow, but I have just barely met him though. I donʼt know him well at all. Childs: It looked like a beautiful bowl. I trust it's as beautiful as it looked there. Is it? It's a perfect reproduction, isnʼt it? Hopkins: Just a perfect reproduction. It is very beautiful, very beautiful. Childs: I told you ahead of time I wasn't going to get to your dinner. But I did. I was so glad… so thrilled by it. It was wonderful. -

THOMAS JOHNSON: GENTLEMAN, VERMONTER, PATRIOT A Thesis Presented by Angela Grove to The Faculty of the Graduate College of The University of Vermont In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Specializing in History October, 2015 Defense Date: June 8, 2015 Thesis Examination Committee: Andrew Buchanan, Ph. D, Advisor Barbara Saylor Rodgers, Ph. D, Chairperson Jacqueline Carr, Ph. D Cynthia J. Forehand, Ph. D, Dean of the Graduate College ABSTRACT This thesis is a micro-history of the formation of the various identities that shaped the Revolutionary War experiences of one eighteenth-century Vermonter (Thomas Johnson) whose life is documented in a manuscript collection at the Vermont Historical Society. I break down Johnson’s identities into three levels: social class, state, and national. My argument is that what it meant to be a provincial gentleman, to be a Vermonter, and to be an American were still being constructed at the time of the Revolution and were therefore in a state of flux. -

Patrician Leadership and the American Revolution in New England , Four Case Studies by Bruce C
Patrician Leadership and the American Revolution in New England , Four Case Studies by Bruce C. DANIELS* The first exposure most new students of American history have to problems of scholarly interpretation invariably centres on the modem chestnut "conflict or consensus." Is American history the product of a long series of battles between diametrically opposed forces reflecting a society with deep internal divisions or of a slow evolutionary liberal process of change reflecting a society in essential agreement? A general weariness with the debate seems to be setting in but the historical profes sion has so far been unable to formulate a new paradigm to replace the old one. One problem bedevils both the consensus and the conflict historians of the American Revolution. Proponents of the consensual model, no matter how much they emphasize the shared experience of the revolu tionaries, cannot dispel from most minds the conviction that at the very least geographic disputes between East and West, agricultural countryside and commercial urban areas, seacoast and backcountry, or river valley and uplands, split the revolutionaries. Given the wide acceptance by historians of one of these splits in most colonies, it is hard to imagine that there would not be political divisions. Yet, while the conflict historians score this basic telling point, they cannot explain what held the rev olutionaries together enough to enable theni to be so successful. Given internal conflict, why did the revolutionary movement not disintegrate into warring factions? Why was one insurrection, Shay's Rebellion, the only serious internal challenge to the orderly process of fighting a war and forming a nation? When this cohesion is juxtaposed with the evidence of serious divisions, we seem to be left with the conclusion that the revolutionary movement had some conflict and some consensus ; enough of one to make the road from colony to nation bumpy but enough of the other to ensure a safe arrival at the destination. -
