  • Virginia Teachers' Directory
    L 903 .V8 P3 Copy 1 VIRGINIA TEilGHER8 ?!r DIREGTORY VIRGINIA ^ TEAGIII Compiled and Published, —w-by,-w— J J. S. QRUVER, A. B., Principal of the Shenandoah Normal College, Reliance, Virginia. Successor to W. A, Zehring, Cutting & Wallihan, Print, Reliance, Va, -ico riiii^ci V c^J, l^^liHmrs of QcKgresi, MAR 20 1900 In offering the Virginia Teachers' Directory to the public, the Author feels called upon to explain the mission of the book and the cause leading to its publication. Each year there are numerous calls from all parts of the country for the names and addresses of the teachers of Virginia, and almost as many calls as are made, are unanswered, not because the recipients of these letters are un- willing to respond, but because it is the next thing to impossible to comply toith all such requests. These requests are invariably addressed to the Superintendent of Public Instruction, the City or County Superintendent. If these gentlemen were to answer all such requests, they would have but little time to devote to official duty. When these letters remain unanswered, the writers become irate and censui-e the Superintendent, never stopping to think that his missive was only one of the many similar letters received by the school officers. Heuce in order to relieve the Superintendents and at the same time supply this felt need, the Virginia Teachers' Directory goes forth on its mission. The Author is very grateful to the Superintendent of Public Instruction, City and County Superintendents for their aid in compiling the Directory. Reliance, Va., -- Feb.

  • January L, 1870: a Happy New Year Is It? Well, I Will Call It So
    1 TRANSCRIPTION OF A DIARY WRITTEN IN 1870 BY DENNIS PRIEST CURTIS AS HIS FAMILY PREPARES FOR AND JOURNEYS ON A TRIP FROM ST. JOSEPH, BERRIEN COUNTY, MICHIGAN TO THE AREA THAT WAS TO BECOME KNOWN AS FREEMONT, GRUNDY COUNTY, TN (Transcribed by Jackie Layne Partin) At home in Levinsloar Barn on Lake Michigan Shore—8:10 P.M., cloudy and cold, some snow in the night. January l, 1870: A happy New year is it? Well, I will call it so. I get up when I get ready as I generally do and take breakfast. I fire one shot with my pistol at the old stable as father had begun the day by firing on the barn. I fiddle as usual while father mends my boot then we all put on our best, go down to Ed Cadwells and I start on foot for town. I meet Horace Williams and his sister coming in the wagon up by Voles Jordan’s place, talk a half a minute and on we go. Dr. Petitt overtakes me up by Mr. Williams. I ride up to Wm. Watson’s with him. I leave my rubbers there and go downtown, look for E. W. and W. P. C., do not find them, put on my skates after going down to the river. I skate up the river, find no one. I am acquainted with the skating being poor and as skates ran hard, I just get back to the house as fast as I can. I sit a few minutes and I go downtown and look for Will and Ed, find Will, but lose track of him again.

  • MANDOLIN ORANGE – Short
    MANDOLIN ORANGE – Short Mandolin Orange makes music that WNYC describes as being “laced with bluegrass, country and folk…often wistful and contemplative without being somber, and always firmly grounded in the South.” The duo, comprised of Andrew Marlin and Emily Frantz, have just announced the May 5 release of Such Jubilee , their second studio album for Yep Roc Records. The group’s 2013 debut for Yep Roc, This Side of Jordan , was released to critical acclaim which included coverage from American Songwriter, Magnet and a coveted year-end spot on NPR’s list of Top 10 Folk & Americana Releases. In 2014 the duo played sold-out shows across the country alongside many festivals, including Merlefest, Newport Folk Festival and Pickathon. MANDOLIN ORANGE - Medium After the breakout critical success of Mandolin Orange's 2013 Yep Roc debut, This Side of Jordan , you'd be forgiven for expecting the classic "road record." Instead, the North Carolina duo of Andrew Marlin and Emily Frantz have crafted Such Jubilee , a gorgeous, deeply moving about album about home. "When you're gone so much, you start realizing what you have and what's waiting for you," explains Marlin. "You realize this there's place to come back to at the end of the journey. The road has been good to Mandolin Orange since releasing This Side of Jordan . NPR called the album "effortless and beautiful," naming it one of the year's best folk/Americana releases, while Magnet dubbed it "magnificent." It earned them performances everywhere from the iconic Newport Folk Festival to Pickathon, as well as tours with Willie Watson, Gregory Alan Isakov, The Wood Brothers, and more.
