  • William Preston and the Revolutionary Settlement
    Journal of Backcountry Studies EDITOR’S NOTE: This is the third and last installment of the author’s 1990 University of Maryland dissertation, directed by Professor Emory Evans, to be republished in JBS. Dr. Osborn is President of Pacific Union College. William Preston and the Revolutionary Settlement BY RICHARD OSBORN Patriot (1775-1778) Revolutions ultimately conclude with a large scale resolution in the major political, social, and economic issues raised by the upheaval. During the final two years of the American Revolution, William Preston struggled to anticipate and participate in the emerging American regime. For Preston, the American Revolution involved two challenges--Indians and Loyalists. The outcome of his struggles with both groups would help determine the results of the Revolution in Virginia. If Preston could keep the various Indian tribes subdued with minimal help from the rest of Virginia, then more Virginians would be free to join the American armies fighting the English. But if he was unsuccessful, Virginia would have to divert resources and manpower away from the broader colonial effort to its own protection. The other challenge represented an internal one. A large number of Loyalist neighbors continually tested Preston's abilities to forge a unified government on the frontier which could, in turn, challenge the Indians effectivel y and the British, if they brought the war to Virginia. In these struggles, he even had to prove he was a Patriot. Preston clearly placed his allegiance with the revolutionary movement when he joined with other freeholders from Fincastle County on January 20, 1775 to organize their local county committee in response to requests by the Continental Congress that such committees be established.

DEDICATION TO ri Harrisori CHRISTIAN GENTLEMAN; PATRIOTIC CITIZEN; BRAVE SOLDIER; WISE STATESMAN AND 23d President of tKe United States. THIS VOLUME IS RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED BY THE OLD TIPPECANOE CLUB OF CHICAGO. PRESS OF PEERLESS PRINTING CO., 107 FIFTH AVE., CHICAGO, PREFACE. the unique Presidential campaign in UNQUESTIONABLYthis country was that of 1840. A stupendous, peaceful rev- olution! When forty-eight years later the surviving followers of that gloriously successful chieftain, numbering no less than fifty thousand souls, received the glad tidings that the National Re- publican Convention had nominated his distinguished grandson, Benjamin Harrison, for President of the United States, they ral- lied as if by bugle call, formed themselves into scores of Tippe- canoe Clubs, held spirited, soul-stirring meetings, as in days of yore, buckled on the armor, and unfurling their time-worn banner to the breeze, again marched forth to battle and to victory. Most of the veterans, conscious of having participated in their last Presidential conflict, were then ready to exclaim with Simeon of " old: Lord, now lettest thou Thy servant depart in peace, for mine eyes have seen Thy salvation." It is improbable that similar coincidences will ever reappear in history, in that the identical principles sacredly maintained by so large a body of voters during almost half a century, notwith- standing the vicissitudes, oft times tumultuous, to which the re- public had meanwhile been exposed, including the unfortunate canvass of 1884, should again be the battle-cry and win popular favor and endorsement and that under consanguineous marshal- ship.

An exploration of the records of first ladies will elicit diverse insights about the historical impact of these women in their times. Interpretive theories that explain modern first ladies are still tentative and exploratory. The contention in the essays, however, is that whatever direction historical writing on presidential wives may follow, there is little question that the future role of first ladies is more likely to expand than to recede to the days of relatively silent and passive helpmates. Following a foreword and an introduction, essays in the collection and their authors are, as follows: "Meeting a New Century: The Papers of Four Twentieth-Century First Ladies" (Mary M.
