Eisen- hower, he was met by the British Mediterranean fleet and saluted by its flagship, H.M.S. "Tiger." Had this chance meeting been with an itinerant merchant vessel named the "Mayflower," doubtless the reporters with the President would have dispatched some analogous comments, but the "Tiger," royal ship of Queen Elizabeth II, rated only a chance notation among the routine events of the day. Yet, in the founding of Anglo-Saxon America, the royal ship "Tiger" of the first Queen Elizabeth was of far more consequence than the revered "Mayflower" of the New England pilgrims. Thirty-four years before the landing at Plymouth Rock and twenty- one years before Jamestown, a "small barcque of her maiesties called 1 the "Tygre," flagship of Sir Richard Grenville's little fleet, landed Ralph Lane on the shores of what is today North Carolina with the first English colony planted in the Western Hemisphere. In recent years the consummate research of Professor David B. 2 Quinn has supplied minute details of this first colony and the move- ment it started. In most libraries throughout the land one can find some information about the principal people involved—Walter Ra- leigh, Richard Grenville, Ralph Lane, John White, Thomas Hariot, and Richard Hakluyt—and the roles they played, but perhaps no person or object was more important to the successful launching of the project than was this ship. Though she was one of the lessor * Mr. Glasgow is a personnel placement counselor, Charlotte. 1 David Beers Quinn (ed.), The Roanoke Voyages, 1584-1590: Documents To Illu- strate the English Voyages to North America Under the Patent Granted to Walter Raleigh in 158U (London: Hakluyt Society [Second Series, No. CIV], 2 volumes, 1955), I, 158, 228, hereinafter cited as Quinn, Roanoke Voyages. 2 David B. Quinn, professor of modern history, University of Liverpool, began his study of Anglo-American colonization for the Hakluyt Society, London, with The Voyages and Colonising Enterprises of Sir Humphrey Gilbert, 2 volumes, 1940. Then followed his monumental Roanoke Voyages; scheduled for publication in the near future is The English Voyages to North America, 1591-1605. Together these will comprise the most exhaustive documentary coverage ever made on this important phase of history.

Her presence in the colonial fleet gave the fleet many times the prestige that could possibly have been had from the inclusion of the very finest private ship afloat. Because she was a well-armed war- ship, she enabled Grenville to capture easily Spanish prizes on the homeward voyage. These acquisitions from England's unofficial enemy proved of sufficient value to provide the financial backers of the enterprise a return on their investment even though the colony 4 failed to materialize. In that pecuniary age, it was no small matter to keep investors interested. Today, it is difficult to assess the full impact of the inclusion of this royal ship on the Elizabethan entre- 5 preneur, but it caused many to view John White's pictures and Thomas Hariot's "A Briefe and True Report of the New Found Land 6 of Virginia," with more than idle curiosity. In 1546, during the reign of King Henry VIII, the original "Tiger" was launched and incorporated into the royal fleet. She was one of a new experimental type of vessel called a galleass; but she bore no resemblance to the vessels of that name in Mediterranean countries. Near her waterline she had a row of ports for oars and in her bow was a heavy, sharp spar for ramming. Otherwise, she was built high like a regular sailing ship with full sails and eight-gun broadside of cannon, but unlike other sailing ships, she had no superstructure or cabins of any sort above her top deck. 7 No evidence exists that the oars or ram, her peculiar galleass fea- tures, were ever used, but as a ship she was a work horse, putting to 8 sea with most royal fleets that sailed during the next fifteen years. 3 R.

  • Commission on Public Art Inventory Review Online Comment Submissions the Public Comments in This Document Were Collected from Au
    Commission on Public Art inventory review online comment submissions The public comments in this document were collected from August 15 to September 5. They are in response to a call from Mayor Greg Fischer, encouraging the public to add their voice to the review of public art that can be interpreted to honor bigotry, discrimination, racism and/or slavery. 40204: I am not opposed to removing the Castleman statue. I would miss having a horse in the neighborhood, however, so if it could be replaced by another rider, perhaps Oliver Lewis and Aristides, the first KY Derby winners. That would be cool. Any statue with Confederate imagery should be removed. Period. 40299: We should not have public murals and statues of leaders of the confederacy. The bottom line is that these men of the confederacy fought to keep hatred, bigotry and racism alive. I don't want our city to have statues honoring these men, because I know Louisville is an inclusive community dedicated to bringing different folks together. 40212: Remove all statues glorifying these traitors. I can’t imagine what a PoC feels about these abominations. 40243: Please leave history ALONE... 40208: A democracy should have monuments celebrating the oppressed and not the oppressors. We need to tear down any monuments celebrating the Confederacy. I also think you should add to this list nude portraits, paintings objectifying women, and paintings featuring people in poverty. I would recommend going through the library and removing all books before 1975 and blocking all websites that involve actual thinking. History has been written, to ignore it is unwise.

    Book Reviews Henry Watterson: Reconstructed Rebel. By Joseph Frazier Wall. (New York: Oxford University Press, 1956. Pp. xvi, 337. Notes and index. $6.00.) One of the last two ferries to shuttle the Ohio between Louisville, Kentucky, and Jeffersonville, Indiana, was the “Henry Watterson”--so named, in the words of its co-owner, “because both were symbols in the effort to unite the North and the South.” Appropriately, the bottle of water that launched this boat was a blend from wells on both sides of the dividing line-from Mansfield, “Marse Henry’s” estate, and from Captain James E. Howard’s mansion near Jeffer- sonville, whence three generations of Howards also had helped link the North and South by building over four hun- dred steamboats. This biography of the legendary editor of the Louisville Courier-Joumdwhich for fifty-three years (1868-1921) served as a diary of this reconstructed rebel’s struggle to reconciliate first the North and the South, and then the Democratic party-should be of particular interest to Hoosiers. As Irvin S. Cobb reminded us a generation ago in a “guyed book” to Indiana, “There is a good deal of the Southerner in the composition of the typical Hoosier.” To this day, some profess that a more realistic Mason-Dixon Line (than its projection down the Ohio) slices Indiana along an approximation of U.S. Route 40. Certainly, during the Civil War, in the Copperhead country of Indiana below the Na- tional Road, countless Hoosiers would have understood why young Watterson’s loyalty to the South outweighed his love for the Union and his hatred of slavery.

Planter Reaction in North Carolina to Presidential Reconstruction, 1865-1867. (1964) Directed by: Dr. James S. Ferguson. PP« 92. When the Civil iar ended, the planter faced many- problems. The physical and economic destruction to the South had necessitated rebuilding. The capital with which to accomplish tnis had either been destroyed or had fled the region. In addition, the labor base of the region— slavery—had been eradicated. These were the major pro- blems which confronted the planter. Although North Carolina planters had differences, their enthusiastic support of Henry Clay they had in com- mon. Most of tiem had been Unionists during the seces- sion controversy. Under Presidential Reconstruction, Provisional Governor William if. Holden called a convention which met and outlawed the secession ordinance, abolished slavery, and cancelled the war debt. There was little disagreement among planters on the first two issues, but they did not relish repudiation.

  • The Bingham Family from the Old
    THE FILSON CLUB HISTORY QUARTERLY VOL. 61 JANUARY 1987 NO. 1 THE BINGHAM FAMILY: FROM THE OLD SOUTH TO THE NEW SOUTH AND BEYOND WILLIAM E. ELLIS After reading Gone With the Wind in early 1937, Robert Worth Bingham, American Ambassador to Great Britain and son of a Confederate veteran, reacted effusively to Margaret Mitchell's classic novel. He exclaimed : I do not thank you for "Gone With the Wind" -- I bless you .... I know every phase of it all; the poverty and the pride, the gentility, the gracious manners, the romance, the preservation of dignity and high and generous humanity in rags and semi-starvation. 1 If Mitchell's epic synthesized the popular 1930s interpretation of the Civil War and Reconstruction, to Bingham it meant much more. He believed the book exonerated the history of his father's generation and vindicated his own behavior. Here was no rabid racist of the Tom Watson variety. In his public life Bingham epitomized the best of the southern ethos of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. He fought against political cor- ruption in the Progressive Era as a young lawyer, mayor, and judge in Louisville, Kentucky. After purchasing the Louisville Courier-Journal in 1918, he continued his crusade against Ken- tucky's Gothic political system until his death in late 1937. More- over, he led the effort to develop a nationwide system of farmer cooperatives in the early twenties3 Bingham never transcended his southern background of the WILLIAM E.

  • The Us Senate Leadership Portrait Collection
    THE U.S. SENATE LEADERSHIP PORTRAIT COllEctION THE U.S. SENATE LEADERSHIP PORTRAIT COllEctION History of the Collection Interest in memorializing Senate leaders was sparked by the Leader’s Lecture Series, a program that presented outstanding former Senate leaders with the opportunity to share their insights about the Senate’s recent history and long-term practices. Established by Senator Trent Lott of Mississippi, the series was developed “to foster a deeper appre- ciation of the Senate as an institution,” and “to consider the wisdom—and enjoy the wit—of those who have been giants in our time.” To honor its past leaders, the United States Senate has established the Senate Leadership Portrait Collection. While the Senate has long hon- ored vice presidents with marble portrait busts in the Capitol, this leadership series Howard Baker, Jr., of Tennessee, Republican leader 1977–1985, is the Senate’s first by Herbert Abrams effort to develop a comprehensive portrait collection of presidents pro tempore and majority and minority leaders. Although several former leaders are already repre- sented by paintings in the U.S. Senate Collection, a portrait of Majority Leader Howard Baker, Jr., of Tennessee by artist Herbert Abrams was the first piece acquired for the newly established Senate Leadership Portrait Collection. This paint- ing was presented as a gift to the Senate by the Dirksen Congressional Center in Pekin, Illinois. Historical Highlights Who leads the Senate? The U.S. Constitution specifies that “the Vice President of the United States shall be President of the Senate.” It also pro- vides that the Senate may elect one of its own members as pres- ident pro tempore to Willie Person Mangum of North serve in the vice presi- Carolina, president pro tempore dent’s absence.

  • The Roles of George Perkins and Frank Munsey in the Progressive
    “A Progressive Conservative”: The Roles of George Perkins and Frank Munsey in the Progressive Party Campaign of 1912 A thesis submitted by Marena Cole in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Tufts University May 2017 Adviser: Reed Ueda Abstract The election of 1912 was a contest between four parties. Among them was the Progressive Party, a movement begun by former president Theodore Roosevelt. George Perkins and Frank Munsey, two wealthy businessmen with interests in business policy and reform, provided the bulk of the Progressive Party’s funding and proved crucial to its operations. This stirred up considerable controversy, particularly amongst the party’s radical wing. One Progressive, Amos Pinchot, would later say that the two corrupted and destroyed the movement. While Pinchot’s charge is too severe, particularly given the support Perkins and Munsey had from Roosevelt, the two did push the Progressive Party to adopt a softer program on antitrust regulation and enforcement of the Sherman Antitrust Act. The Progressive Party’s official position on antitrust and the Sherman Act, as shaped by Munsey and Perkins, would cause internal ideological schisms within the party that would ultimately contribute to the party’s dissolution. ii Acknowledgements This thesis finalizes my time at the Tufts University Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, which has been a tremendously challenging and fulfilling place to study. I would first like to thank those faculty at Boston College who helped me find my way to Tufts. I have tremendous gratitude to Lori Harrison-Kahan, who patiently guided me through my first experiences with archival research.
