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.

Robertson, Jr., Chairman History (ABSTRACT) This thesis is a military biography of Benjamin Huger. His reputation before the Civil War was that of a distinguished and highly competent ordnance officer. Huger’s brief and disappointing tenure as a Confederate division commander profoundly changed this. Students and historians of the Civil War remember him only as the one who let General George B. McClelland’s army escape certain destruction during the 1862 Peninsula Campaign. The scope of this study is limited to Huger’s life prior to his resignation from the U.S. Army. It begins with a brief discussion of his family, the influential Hugers of South Carolina. Huger’s father, Francis Kinloch Huger, receives special attention as one who had a major impact on his son’s life. He taught young Huger the importance of personal integrity, self-reliance, and the value of a scientific education. These factors accounted for much of Huger’s success as an officer in America’s antebellum Army. Huger’s professional growth occurred during a time of great technological change.

    Capital Negotiations: Native Diplomats in the American Capital, 1789-1837

    CAPITAL NEGOTIATIONS: NATIVE DIPLOMATS IN THE AMERICAN CAPITAL, 1789-1837 by Stephanie L. Gamble A dissertation submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland October 2014 © 2014 Stephanie L. Gamble All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT “Capital Negotiations: Native Diplomats in the American Capital, 1789-1837,” examines the culture of diplomacy created by Native delegates and American officials as they negotiated in the seat of federal power. Between 1789 and 1837, more than 170 delegations of Native peoples from more than forty nations arrived in the national capital to engage in diplomacy with the United States government. Deputations ranged in size from a single diplomat to several dozen. The majority of delegations consisted of members of only one nation, though a notable minority was comprised of individuals from multiple nations. With many of these visits overlapping, Indian ambassadors were visible, nearly ever-present figures in the capital’s streets, theatres, hotels, and federal offices, as well as on the roads and waterways leading to and from the capital. Examining speeches, government records, newspapers, guidebooks, and personal letters, this dissertation uncovers the evolving expectations and strategies of Native diplomats as well as federal officials’ attempts to control Native visits. This project demonstrates the myriad ways in which Natives and federal officials performed diplomatic identities not just for one another but also for a wider American public, through extensive newspaper reporting and public displays of Native culture and American progress. Further, it establishes the importance of the American capital as a physical and ideological space for Native leaders and diplomats.

    Archives and Special Collections Dickinson College Carlisle, PA COLLECTION REGISTER Name: Buchanan, James (1791-1868) MC 1998.10 Materials: Papers (1808-1991) Volume: 2.5 linear feet (Document Boxes 1-5 and 11 Oversized Folders) Donation: Gifts of Various Donors Usage: These materials have been donated without restrictions on usage. BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE James Buchanan was born on April 23, 1791 near Mercersburg, Pennsylvania to James Buchanan, a store owner and prosperous land owner, and Elizabeth Speer Buchanan. Both parents were of Scotch-Irish descent. James attended Mercersburg Academy near his home until the fall of 1807, when he entered the junior class of Dickinson College in Carlisle, PA. He did not enjoy his years at Dickinson; he found the school in “wretched condition” with “no efficient discipline.” However, his behavior while at Dickinson was far from exemplary. Buchanan states, “ . I engaged in every sort of extravagance and mischief in which the great proficients of the College indulged.” For this behavior, he was expelled during the fall vacation of 1808. After pledging his good behavior to his minister, Dr. John King (a college trustee), he was readmitted to Dickinson. In his senior year, James felt slighted by the faculty because he did not win the top award of the College for which his society had nominated him. Buchanan commented, “I left college, . feeling little attachment to the Alma Mater.” Upon graduation from Dickinson, Buchanan moved to Lancaster to study under the prominent lawyer James Hopkins. After being admitted to the Pennsylvania Bar in 1812, he quickly gained prominence. He was elected to the Pennsylvania House of Representatives in 1814 as a Federalist and was reelected in 1815.

While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.
