Dale Wainwright he Society’s dual mission of preserving the history of the courts and Teducating the public about that history is again in full bloom this year. On March 8, the Society will sponsor an informative session at the annual meeting of the Texas State Historical Association in San Marcos. The Society’s participation in this statewide forum is central to our educational mission, and I look forward to moderating this year’s panel discussion on lawyers and judges in early Texas. See page 89 in this issue for program and registration information. In January, the Society cosponsored, with the Texas Supreme Court, a special portrait dedication ceremony for two Reconstruction-era justices—Colbert Coldwell and Wesley B. Ogden. Justice Coldwell served on the Court during the post-Civil War period from 1867 to 1869 and was removed from office by the U.S. military. Chief Justice Ogden served on the Court from 1870 to January of 1874, when he was unceremoniously ousted from office after he and the other justices issued the controversial opinion in the “Semicolon Case.” In Ex parte On January 10, the Society joined the Texas Supreme Court in Rodriguez, the Court’s opinion dedicating the portraits of Reconstruction-era Chief Justice Wesley invalidated the state election Ogden (left) and Justice Colbert Coldwell (right). of 1873; however, newly Photo by Mark Matson. elected Governor Richard Coke refused to enforce the decision and took office by force. The historical period during which they served and the recounted circumstances combined to result in neither Ogden nor Coldwell having received formal recognition of their historical significance. The portrait ceremony in the 1 Supreme Court was an important step in continuing to complete the history of the Texas judicial system. The story to be told in the next issue of this journal is how Society board member Bill Ogden, a great grandson of Wesley Ogden, and Society member Colbert Coldwell, a great grandson of his namesake ancestor, took the initiative to approach the Society and the Court to make it happen. The Society’s Fellows are also promoting our educational mission through the Taming Texas Judicial Civics and Court History Project. The project’s classroom program on the history and operations of our state’s courts was introduced two years ago and has reached thousands of seventh-grade Texas history students so far. The Houston Bar Association’s Teach Texas Committee is preparing to launch this year’s program in Houston area schools. You’ll hear more about the curriculum and the new book in the Taming Texas series this spring. When the Society’s board travels to Dallas for its March 28 meeting, we’ll hear reports from the various committees that do the majority of the work of this organization. At last fall’s meeting in Austin, I was impressed by how much is accomplished by a group of volunteers who are extremely busy in their legal careers. I know that the spring meeting will be equally productive. The post-meeting field trip to the George W. Bush Presidential Library will be a special treat, and I greatly appreciate Cynthia Timms’s efforts in planning it for us.

Return to Journal Index 2 Executive Director’s Page TSHA Annual Meetings Have Tangible, Intangible Takeaways Sharon Sandle ast year I had the chance to attend the LTexas State Historical Association’s Annual Meeting in Houston. Although I attended many fascinating sessions, one of the highlights of the meeting, for me, was browsing the books in the exhibitor hall. Some of the books available are new publications from the university presses in Texas, but there are also sellers who have items of historical significance for sale. One item that I came across ended up returning home with me. It’s a narrow pamphlet entitled Hand-book of Legal Forms, by John W.

The first will be a great and total eclipse, on Friday March 15th, at 9h. 28m. morning, but by reason of the moon's south latitude, her shadow will not touch any part of North America. The course of the general eclipse will be from southwest to north- east, from the Pacific Ocean a little west of Chili to the Arabian Gulf and southeastern part of the Mediterranean Sea. The termination of this grand and sublime phenomenon will probably be witnessed from the summit of some of those stupendous monuments of ancient industry and folly, the vast and lofty pyramids on the banks of the Nile in lower Egypt. The principal cities and places that will be to- tally shadowed in this eclipse, are Valparaiso, Mendoza, Cordova, Assumption, St. Salvador and Pernambuco, in South America, and Sierra Leone, Teemboo, Tombucto and Fezzan, in Africa. At each of these places the duration of total darkness will be from one to six minutes, and several of the planets and fixed stars will probably be visible. 2. The other will also be a grand and beautiful eclipse, on Satur- day, September 7th, at 5h. 35m. evening, but on account of the Mnon's low latitude, and happening so late in the afternoon, no part of it will be visible in North America.

  • Civil War in the Lone Star State
    page 1 Dear Texas History Lover, Texas has a special place in history and in the minds of people throughout the world. It has a mystique that no other state and few foreign countries have ever equaled. Texas also has the distinction of being the only state in America that was an independent country for almost 10 years, free and separate, recognized as a sovereign gov- ernment by the United States, France and England. The pride and confidence of Texans started in those years, and the “Lone Star” emblem, a symbol of those feelings, was developed through the adventures and sacrifices of those that came before us. The Handbook of Texas Online is a digital project of the Texas State Historical Association. The online handbook offers a full-text searchable version of the complete text of the original two printed volumes (1952), the six-volume printed set (1996), and approximately 400 articles not included in the print editions due to space limitations. The Handbook of Texas Online officially launched on February 15, 1999, and currently includes nearly 27,000 en- tries that are free and accessible to everyone. The development of an encyclopedia, whether digital or print, is an inherently collaborative process. The Texas State Historical Association is deeply grateful to the contributors, Handbook of Texas Online staff, and Digital Projects staff whose dedication led to the launch of the Handbook of Civil War Texas in April 2011. As the sesquicentennial of the war draws to a close, the Texas State Historical Association is offering a special e- book to highlight the role of Texans in the Union and Confederate war efforts.
