Simon Major General Harry Hill Bandholtz was America’s representative to the Inter-Allied Supreme Command’s Military Mission in Hungary at the end of World War I. Before the first world war, Bandholtz was Chief of the American Constabulary in the Philippines from 1907 until 1913. During WWI Bandholtz was the Provost Marshal General in General Pershing’s American Expeditionary Forces in France. His organization, 463 officers and 15,912 men, was the world’s largest military police command at the time. Directing it was a huge responsibility. Despite his qualifications and experience, his six-month assignment to Budapest was apparently the most frustrating encounter in General Bandholtz’s distinguished military career.

  • THE HISTORY of the PIETERSBURG [POLOKWANE] JEWISH COMMUNITY by CHARLOTTE WIENER Submitted in Fulfillment of the Requirements
    THE HISTORY OF THE PIETERSBURG [POLOKWANE] JEWISH COMMUNITY by CHARLOTTE WIENER Submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the subject JUDAICA at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA SUPERVISOR: MR CEDRIC GINSBERG NOVEMBER 2006 SUMMARY Jews were present in Pietersburg [Polokwane] from the time of its establishment in 1868. They came from Lithuania, England and Germany. They were attracted by the discovery of gold, land and work opportunities. The first Jewish cemetery was established on land granted by President Paul Kruger in 1895. The Zoutpansberg Hebrew Congregation, which included Pietersburg and Louis Trichardt was established around 1897. In 1912, Pietersburg founded its own congregation, the Pietersburg Hebrew Congregation. A Jewish burial society, a benevolent society and the Pietersburg-Zoutpansberg Zionist Society was formed. A communal hall was built in 1921 and a synagogue in 1953. Jews contributed to the development of Pietersburg and held high office. There was little anti-Semitism. From the 1960s, Jews began moving to the cities. The communal hall and minister’s house were sold in 1994 and the synagogue in 2003. Only the Jewish cemetery remains in Pietersburg. 10 key words: 1] Pietersburg [Polokwane] 2] Zoutpansberg 3] Anglo-Boer War 4] Jew 5] Synagogue 6] Cemetery 7] Rabbi 8] Hebrew 9] Zionist 10] Anti-Semitism ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank the following: Mr Cedric Ginsberg, my supervisor, for his invaluable assistance, patience and meticulous corrections The late Mr Wally Levy for his information concerning families and events in the Northern Transvaal.

Spring is now at hand and the military is beginning to show considerable signs of activity. Gen. Thayer has moved nearly all the troops out of the town, and is having the place thoroughly cleansed. He is also erecting suitable fortifications for the defense of the place by a small force, when the grand move on Texas is made, which nearly all the soldiers will hail with delight, as they look on the conquest of that State as virtually ending the war west of the Mississippi. There are about 900 men at this place who have taken the prescribed oath preparatory to voting next Monday. A great many of them are not of the purest water, but would turn every day to be at the top of the pile.

  • A Prisoner and Agent in 1944 Romania. a Fragment of the Memoirs of Pilot Officer Bertrand Whitley*
    Philobiblon – Vol. XIX (2014) No. 2 © Philobiblon. Transylvanian Journal of Multidisciplinary Research in Humanities A Prisoner and Agent in 1944 Romania. A Fragment of the Memoirs of Pilot Officer Bertrand Whitley* Adrian BODA Researcher, Lucian Blaga Central University Library, Cluj-Napoca Keywords: War Memoirs, Prisoner, S.O.E. agent, Romania Abstract. The article presents a fragment from the manuscript of R.A.F pilot officer Bertrand Whitley, focusing on his experience as prisoner of war and S.O.E. agent in Romania. This part of the memoirs is especially relevant for Romanian readers, as it presents the conditions of 1944 Romania, perceived by an Englishman. The author’s experiences placed him in the position to know both rural Romania and the elite of Bucharest, as he witnessed the events of 23 August and the ensuing Soviet occupation. Apart from this, Whitley proved to be a fine observer of the period’s moral standards, as well as a good portrait writer: the manuscript contains portraits of personalities of the time, like King Mihai I of Romania or Major Ivor Porter. E-mail: [email protected] * WarWarWar memoirs have become one of the richest sources for the research of military history in the past century. The soldiers’ experiences, whether in the trench wars of WWI or the horrors of the soldiers fighting in various theatres of operations in WWII, persisted in their memories, and not a few of them shared with society their individual perspectives on the war by volumes of memoirs. The evolution of mankind and the recurring military conflicts throughout its history place war narratives among the most frequent genres, as long as taking part in the war practically meant taking part in the making of history.1 As regards the production of war memoirs, the 20th century witnessed a boom in such writings, apparent both from the impressive number of such works published, and the broad typology of the genre.

An Abstract Of Bumpkins and Bostonnais: Detroit, 1805-1812 By Jeffrey Robert Pollock Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Arts Degree in History The University of Toledo December 2013 This work focuses on Detroit from 1805 to 1812, with a focus on the changes brought about by the advent of the Michigan Territory and the reaction to those changes by the predominantly French-speaking citizens of the town. This work relies on previously underutilized petitions and memorials drafted and circulated by the francophone citizens of Detroit to argue that these citizens had a real and profound interest in the political and legal future of their town, contrary to what past historians have written. The thesis is organized into three chapters. The first gives a brief history of Detroit from its founding in 1701 until the start of the Territory of Michigan in 1805. The second examines the conflicting desires of the local population and the new administration in rebuilding the towns following its destruction by fire in June 1805, in particular the issues involving land title, locations of new lots, and the enclosure of Detroit’s commons.

  • An Undiplomatic Diary
    AN UNDIPLOMATIC DIARY BY THE AMERICAN MEMBER OF THE INTER-ALLIED MILITARY MISSION TO HUNGARY · 1919-1920 MAJ. GEN. HARRY HILL BANDHOLTZ, U. S. A. EDITED BY FRITZ-KONRAD KRUGER PROFESSOR OF POLITICAL SCIENCE WITTENBERG COLLEGE NEW YORK MCMXXXIII COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY PRESS Copyright 1933 COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY PRESS Published 1933 2 Editor’s Preface This Diary of the late Maj. Gen. Harry Hill Bandholtz was not written for publication. However, when I happened to see it, I recognized its importance as a historical document of the World War period and was happy to secure from the widow of General Bandholtz, Mrs. Inez Clair Bandholtz, permission to make the contents of the Diary available to students of history and diplomacy. I believe that the Diary is a monument to an upright, fair-minded and humane American, who has represented the best type of his countrymen in an unfortunate land. The attitude and activity of General Bandholtz in Hungary may, mutatis mutandis, be compared to that of Gen. H. T. Allen in Germany. I wish to express my appreciation to Mrs. Inez Clair Bandholtz, whose support in editing this Diary was valuable to me. Special credit is due to Miss Georgia W. Read, of the Columbia University Press, for many helpful suggestions and for her fine coöperation in the editing of this book.
