INTRODUCTION 1 Purpose and Scope Methodology II. INDEX S BIBLIOGRAPHY 40 ii CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION An index, as defined in the American Library Association's Glossary of Terms, is "a list of topics, names, et cetera, treated in a book or a group of books, with references to pages where they occur." Robert Collison said: The indexing of periodicals is based on the same principles as those for the indexing of books, but it involves a stricter discipline, a wider knowledge of unswerving consistency. ...An index to perioci- cals is however an operation carried out over a long period ... and it covers a greater amount and variety of material, generally speaking. Continuative indexing means that the principles on which the index is compiled in one month must be strictly followed in all further installments if the reader is to discover quickly and easily all the material on his subject.2 At the time of the first publication of the Bulletin of Atlanta 3 University in June, 1883, the University itself had been in existence for fourteen years. The Bulletin was a link which provided reports on the progress of the University as well as progress of the South in general.

  • Microfilm Publication M617, Returns from U.S
    Publication Number: M-617 Publication Title: Returns from U.S. Military Posts, 1800-1916 Date Published: 1968 RETURNS FROM U.S. MILITARY POSTS, 1800-1916 On the 1550 rolls of this microfilm publication, M617, are reproduced returns from U.S. military posts from the early 1800's to 1916, with a few returns extending through 1917. Most of the returns are part of Record Group 94, Records of the Adjutant General's Office; the remainder is part of Record Group 393, Records of United States Army Continental Commands, 1821-1920, and Record Group 395, Records of United States Army Overseas Operations and Commands, 1898-1942. The commanding officer of every post, as well ad commanders of all other bodies of troops such as department, division, brigade, regiment, or detachment, was required by Army Regulations to submit a return (a type of personnel report) to The Adjutant General at specified intervals, usually monthly, on forms provided by that office. Several additions and modifications were made in the form over the years, but basically it was designed to show the units that were stationed at a particular post and their strength, the names and duties of the officers, the number of officers present and absent, a listing of official communications received, and a record of events. In the early 19th century the form used for the post return usually was the same as the one used for regimental or organizational returns. Printed forms were issued by the Adjutant General’s Office, but more commonly used were manuscript forms patterned after the printed forms.

  • 318 E. Durham St. Nominator Comment
    Comment from nominator received by the Philadelphia Historical Commission regarding the nomination for 318 E. Durham Street Response to PHC Staff Comments – 318 E Durham St. Historic Nomination Paula & Kelly O’Day, 6/28/21 1. “… this building’s connection to Tourison is tenuous at best. The fact that Tourison reportedly renovated this building does not qualify it for historic designation.” Alexander Bartlett, Germantown Historical Society Archivist/ Librarian1, has provided additional information on the 4‐photo before – after collage of the conversion of the former 7131 Sprague St. stable/ barn to the 318 E Durham St. house that was included in the December 2020 nomination submission. Exhibit A shows a most recent scan of the before‐ after collage provided by the Germantown Historical Society. Mr. Bartlett reports “… that these photos are from the collections of Joseph Eddleman, Jr., who was the great grandson of Ashton Tourison.” Jim Duffin2 received a copy of Mr. Bartlett’s 6/22/21 email and commented that “I notice Lisabeth Holloway's handwriting there and even my own ‐‐ the address number in brackets.” He goes on to say “Unfortunately I wasn't around when the Eddelmans let the GHS copy the images. They are great and a wonderful example of what was the common way of doing real estate development in Philadelphia up to WWII ‐‐ reusing existing structures.” The provenance of the 4‐photo before‐after collage of the 318 E Durham St. house is very strong: The 4‐photos before‐after collage was found in joseph Edelson’s, Ashton Tourison’s great grandson’s, collection at the Germantown Historical Society archives by Alexander Bartlett.

  • THE AFTERMATH of the ANGLO-BOER WAR the Peace
    University of Pretoria etd – Wassermann, J M (2005) 437 CHAPTER 13 THE END AND THE BEGINNING - THE AFTERMATH OF THE ANGLO-BOER WAR The peace treaty of Vereeniging signed by the Boer Republics and Great Britain, on 31 May 1902, brought the Anglo-Boer War to an end. The plight of Natal Afrikaners, unlike at the peace negotiations between Botha and Kitchener at Middelburg in February 1901, hardly featured in the treaty. Consequently, and because of the unflinching attitude of the Natal Government, Natal rebels received no concessions. Although the question of rebels remained foremost on the agenda for the Natal Government, they also faced other post-war questions such as the smooth incorporation of several Transvaal districts into the Colony, and how to reconcile with their alienated Afrikaner subjects. In this unequal power relationship, the Natal Afrikaners had no voice and were at the mercy of their government. 13.1 Geo-political changes in Natal and their impact on Natal Afrikaners Towards the end of 1901 the Natal Government requested that the Transvaal districts of Vryheid and Utrecht in total, parts of the Wakkerstroom district, and the whole of the OFS districts of Vrede and Harrismith, be transferred to the Colony. The rationale for this request was Athe close connection, commercial, agricultural, social and familial@ that existed between the residents of these districts and Natal. With reference to the OFS districts a guarantee was given that Athe increase of the Dutch electorate, tempered by the large British population of the town of Harrismith, would not appreciably affect the predominance of British sentiment of the electorate or the Parliament of the Colony.@ The suggested transfer of the two districts was nevertheless opposed by the lieutenant-governor of the Free State, Hamilton Goold-Adams, who feared a Alasting grievance@, and that the anti-British sentiment in Natal would be strengthened by 15 000 Free Staters.
