Hoit Portland Albert Gallatin Hoit was born in Sandwich, New Hampshire, December 13, 1809, to Gen. Daniel Hoit and Sally Flanders. Siblings included William Henry Hoit. Hoit graduated from Dartmouth College in 1829. He married Susan Hanson in 1838; children included Anna M. Hoit. He "devoted his life to portrait painting, first at Portland, Maine, in 1831, and then in Bangor and Belfast, Maine, and St. John's, N.B. until Boston, Mass., became his permanent home in 1839." He also travelled in Europe, "Oct. 1842 to July 1844, ... enjoying the galleries of art in Italy, Paris, and London. He created portraits of Pietro Bachi, Johanna Robinson Hazen, J. Eames, and others. He painted a portrait of Daniel Webster "for Paran Stevens, which hung for years in the Revere House, Boston, and now belongs to the Union League Club, New York." He was affiliated with the Boston Artists' Association; and exhibited at the gallery of the New England Art Union in the 1850s. In 1848, he kept a studio on Tremont Row in Boston, and lived in Roxbury. By 1852 he had moved his studio to Washington Street. He died in Jamaica Plain, December 18, 1856, at age 47. Works by Hoit are in the collection of the Sandwich Historical Society in New Hampshire, the New Brunswick Museum, the National Gallery of Canada, and the Strawbery Banke Museum in Portsmouth, NH. (Wikipedia) after a visit to White Hills, visited this mountain this afternoon from Senter’s. A fine clear day and beautiful view from the Summit. I am happy to see that my old friend Cook & his family are in good health and spirits much enlivened by the great (?) of company this year. He remembered me perfectly well, though he only saw me once before, and that time was thirteen years ago. I have been here twice: the first time was in 1821 with George Otis, who died in 1828; and Sam A. Otis. Mr. Cook says that was the third party which ever Ascended Red Hill. The second time, was in 1826. Aug. 9 (see other album) I have been thus particular, because the circumstances seem to me peculiar, upon conversing with Mr. Cook. James F. Otis ______________________________________________________________________________ How important that the sparse population now occupying this Romantic region, and who are to be the germ and instructors of the thousands to be here after them-would be deeply imbued with piety and intelligence.

In 1833, Massachusetts was the last state in the nation to “disestablish” taxation and state support for churches.1 What, if any, impact did John Adams have on this process of liberalization? What were Adams’ views on religious freedom and how did they change over time? In this intriguing article Dr. Arthur Scherr traces the evolution, or lack thereof, in Adams’ views on religious freedom from the writing of the original 1780 Massachusetts Constitution to its revision in 1820. He carefully examines contradictory primary and secondary sources and seeks to set the record straight, arguing that there are many unsupported myths and misconceptions about Adams’ role at the 1820 convention.

SEYMOUR BASSETT Cornelius Peter Van Ness was a colorful and vigorous leader in a formative period of Vermont history, hut he has remained in the dusk of that history. In this paper Mr. Bassett has sought to recall __ mm and IUs activities and through him throw definite light on h4s ---------­ eventfultime.l.- -In--this--study Van--N-esr--ir-brought;-w--rlre-dt:a.mot~ months of his attempt in the senatorial election of I826 to succeed Horatio Seymour. 'Ulhen Mr. Bassett has completed his research into thot phase of the career of Van Ness, we hope to present the re­ sults in another paper. Further comment will he found in the Post­ script. Editor. NDIVIDUALISM is the boasted virtue of Vermonters. If they I are right in their boast, biographies of typical Vermonters should re­ veal what individualism has produced. Governor Van Ness was a typical Vermonter of the late nineteenth century, but out of harmony with the Vermont spirit of his day. This essay sketches his meteoric career in administrative, legislative and judicial office, and his control of Vermont federal and state patronage for a decade up to the turning point of his career, the senatorial campaign of 1826.1 His family had come to N ew York in the seventeenth century. 2 His father was by trade a wheelwright, strong-willed, with little book-learning. A Revolutionary colonel and a county judge, his purchase of Lindenwald, an estate at Kinderhook, twenty miles down the Hudson from Albany, marked his social and pecuniary success.s Cornelius was born at Lindenwald on January 26, 1782.

Engstrom offers an important, historically grounded perspective on the stakes of congressional redistricting by evaluating the impact of gerrymandering on elections and on party control of the U.S. national government from 1789 through the reapportionment revolution of the 1960s. In this era before the courts supervised redistricting, state parties enjoyed wide discretion with regard to the timing and structure of their districting choices. Although Congress occasionally added language to federal- apportionment acts requiring equally populous districts, there is little evidence this legislation was enforced. Essentially, states could redistrict largely whenever and however they wanted, and so, not surpris- ingly, political considerations dominated the process. Engstrom employs the abundant cross- sectional and temporal varia- tion in redistricting plans and their electoral results from all the states— throughout U.S. history— in order to investigate the causes and con- sequences of partisan redistricting.

  • Evolution of the White Mountain Magnia Series
    EVOLUTION OF THE WHITE MOUNTAIN MAGNIA SERIES RaNoor.pn W. CnapuaN, Vassar College CnenrBs R. wrr";;: , Cambri.d,ge,Mass. PART I. DATA Pnosr.BM In recent years, a number of intensive field and laboratory studies of the rocks of the White Mountain district in New Hamp- shire have been carried out. One result of these investigations is to show that there exists in this area a group of rocks with marked alkaline affinities (3)* to which the name White Mountain magma serieshas been applied (5, p.56). The various rock types of this group form a definite series,and wherever found in the area they possessthe same relative ages.Such a sequenceis of greatestim- portance to petrology and necessitatesan explanation. Accord- ingly, the writers have undertaken a study of this problem, the results of which are presented in this paper. ft is not pretended that this work is complete or that the problem has been entirely solved. Certain definite conclusions have been reached, however, and it is hoped that these may lead to a more complete under- standing of the evolution of the White Mountain magma series. The writers are especiallyindebted to ProfessorMarland Billings of Harvard University for his valuable assistancein preparing this paper. Several of the major ideas presentedhere were first sug- gested by Professor Billings, and these have led to a clearer under- standing of many of the intricate problems encountered in the course of the work. The writers also wish to thank ProfessorEsper S. Larsen, Jr., and ProfessorR. A. Daly for their many helpful suggestionsand criticisms.

  • Winter Breeze
    The Southeast Breeze Quarterly newsletter of the Appalachian Mountain Club, Southeastern Massachusetts Chapter Winter 2011/2012 — December, January, February View from the Chair By Jim Plouffe, Chapter Chair It‘s been one year; one year since I accepted the position as Chapter Chair for the Chapter. It is the ultimate of volunteer positions, in this type of club. While some volunteers give up a Saturday here or there and some volunteers lead a hike or a bike or a paddle, once in a while, this position, as Chapter Chair, has me running regular meetings, planning club wide events, coordinating weekend events, attending other meetings, annual dinners, retreats, and many other things that take up time. The work as a Chapter Chair goes beyond these ―time taking‖ events and includes the time it takes to prepare agendas, write articles, and collect paperwork and other less noticeable but important tasks that take place behind the scenes. I tell you this, not to pat myself on the back, because I don‘t really need the pat on the back. I enjoy doing this type of work and find it rewarding just to see that I can make a difference in my microcosm. I have told you this because last night I sat in a room with ―my‖ Executive Board and conducted a meeting that will hopefully bring this Chapter forward in the year 2012. At this meeting, I was looking around and realized that for every minute I spend planning, executing and attending my meetings and events, the people in front of me, acting in their volunteer capacity, spent an equal amount of time doing their best to try and achieve the same goals and intentions that I strive to accomplish.
