DAILY TIMES [LEAVENWORTH, KS] March 26, 1864 – November 11, 1864 DAILY TIMES [LEAVENWORTH, KS], March 26, 1864, p. 2, c. 4 Correspondence of the Times. Fort Smith, Ark., March 7th, 1864. Spring is now at hand and the military is beginning to show considerable signs of activity. Gen. Thayer has moved nearly all the troops out of the town, and is having the place thoroughly cleansed. He is also erecting suitable fortifications for the defense of the place by a small force, when the grand move on Texas is made, which nearly all the soldiers will hail with delight, as they look on the conquest of that State as virtually ending the war west of the Mississippi. There are about 900 men at this place who have taken the prescribed oath preparatory to voting next Monday. A great many of them are not of the purest water, but would turn every day to be at the top of the pile. Gen. Thayer addressed a large and enthusiastic meeting here last Wednesday evening, on the subject of reorganization of the State Government and military policy, in a very eloquent and forcible speech of nearly two hours. He caused a little fluttering in certain quarters a few evening's since under the following circumstances: The rebel Captain and Adj. Gen. Russell, C. S. A., had been paroled to the limits of the town, and had commenced making his mark among certain women of rebel proclivities, who lionized him, gave him grand reception balls, and grand ovations during the few days he was on parole, which gave said women an opportunity to express and make demonstrations of their sympathy with treason, and in the presence of Federal officers at that, who so far countenanced them as to be present and share the festivities with them. On the evening referred to, they prepared to give him another grand reception ball at the house of Mrs. Myers, a noted rebel. Everything was ready, but the military band smelling a rat, refused by play for them; but they were determined not to be outdone; two persons were at length found who would furnish the music. The party assembled. Maj. S---, Captains H---, S---- and other officers were present in their gayest outfit; but there was one missing; it was impossible to give life and zest to the festivities without him; the hours hung heavily; he came not, and they had to retire at an early hour with saddened hearts and gloomy forebodings. "O, dear, what can the matter be?" At last morning came, and with its early dawn the following circular, which fully explained the cause of their favorite's absence: Headquarters Dist. of the Frontier,} Department of Arkansas, } Fort Smith, Ark., March 4, 1864. } Colonel: You will cause Capt. Russell, prisoner of war, to be confined to the limits within the garrison, as specified in my previous communication to you, and all communication with him by any one outside the walls is prohibited, unless by permission of these Headquarters. This course is adopted on account of certain ladies in the city having taken occasion to abuse the freedom extended to Capt. Russell on account of illness, by demonstrations of sympathy with treason. Very respectfully yours, John M. Thayer, Brig. Gen., Commanding. Col. John Edwards, Dist. Pro. Mar. Three "intelligent and reliable contrabands" arrived from the enemy's lines last Friday. They state that there is plenty of meat and grain in Texas, and that there are thousands of contrabands just inside their lines, but the rebels are expecting us down before long, and are preparing to send them off to the interior. I saw a train of emigrant wagons pass down the street a few days since, on their way to Kansas, and many others are preparing to follow soon. Gen. Blunt is expected here soon, but unless there is some other arrangements made, he will have a slim command, as the military Post here only includes sixty acres, and no troops in it, though the 2d Kan. Col., and five companies of the 11th U. S. Co., are just over the line in the Indian Territory. When shall we hear the last of the cotton fraud? Another lot of about fifty bales was levied on, to-day, by a Special Treasury Agent from Little Rock, found safely stowed away in the cellar of the stone house of the prince of sutlers A. McDonald & Co. No doubt the firm will use all its power and influence to have it released, and as it is a very extensive one, and generally believed here includes men of high position, they may succeed in making the transactions all appear regular, but that there is a grand swindle in it but few here will deny.

The finder of the above articles will be liberally rewarded by leaving them at the State and Express Office, under the Planters' House. DAILY TIMES [LEAVENWORTH, KS], April 2, 1864, p. 2, c. 3 The Order. That secret society, known as the Knights of the Golden Circle, is the cause of all the mischief which has occurred in Illinois, Indiana and Ohio. It is the means through which rebels at heart have resisted the good cause, and defied the law. That it has some strength all over the West, and in the cities of the East, is known. That its purpose is to overthrow the Government, all admit. Yet, in ritual and form and outward declaration, it is Conservative. So artfully covered, too, is its Conservatism, that, at a glance, one not initiated would not understand its purpose or get at the heart of the Order. This is its pledge: "I solemnly pledge my word and honor to the members of this organization, that I will not reveal its existence to any one whose political principles I do not know to be unmistakably the same as our own, and whom I desire to initiate. That I will not reveal its pass words or signs, or any of its secrets, to any one not regularly initiated into its ranks. That I will stand shoulder to shoulder with this brother hood in a faithful and manly support of its purposes and principles, and that I will at all times promptly obey every order that shall be given me under its regulation, if in my power so to do. I pledge the honor of a freeman, and one who desires to continue so, that I will keep these promises faithfully." The "charge" is seemingly fair, if partisan. It invokes law, and declares that the law must be sustained. It appeals to freemen to sustain freedom. But the liberty it asks is their own liberty—not a principle, not a universal, fundamental law—but, a liberty limited by their theory, and to be established by their practice. Logically, it is a South Carolina Texas order in Illinois and Indiana, and intended to do, in the future, what "their brethren" are now seeking to accomplish in the rebel States. We copy portions of the charge: ["] A single thread is easily broken, but combine many such threads into a cable, and it will resist a giant's strength. One man, however brave of heart and patriotic of purpose, can offer no effective resistance to the armed and leagued minions of abolition; but let all true men touch elbows, and stand firmly together in this perilous hour, for their mutual protection and the maintenance of the right; and their united voices will be heard, their united power respected, and the giant despotism which now threatens us be checked and mastered.

Before the first world war, Bandholtz was Chief of the American Constabulary in the Philippines from 1907 until 1913. During WWI Bandholtz was the Provost Marshal General in General Pershing’s American Expeditionary Forces in France. His organization, 463 officers and 15,912 men, was the world’s largest military police command at the time. Directing it was a huge responsibility. Despite his qualifications and experience, his six-month assignment to Budapest was apparently the most frustrating encounter in General Bandholtz’s distinguished military career.

  • THE HISTORY of the PIETERSBURG [POLOKWANE] JEWISH COMMUNITY by CHARLOTTE WIENER Submitted in Fulfillment of the Requirements
    THE HISTORY OF THE PIETERSBURG [POLOKWANE] JEWISH COMMUNITY by CHARLOTTE WIENER Submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the subject JUDAICA at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA SUPERVISOR: MR CEDRIC GINSBERG NOVEMBER 2006 SUMMARY Jews were present in Pietersburg [Polokwane] from the time of its establishment in 1868. They came from Lithuania, England and Germany. They were attracted by the discovery of gold, land and work opportunities. The first Jewish cemetery was established on land granted by President Paul Kruger in 1895. The Zoutpansberg Hebrew Congregation, which included Pietersburg and Louis Trichardt was established around 1897. In 1912, Pietersburg founded its own congregation, the Pietersburg Hebrew Congregation. A Jewish burial society, a benevolent society and the Pietersburg-Zoutpansberg Zionist Society was formed. A communal hall was built in 1921 and a synagogue in 1953. Jews contributed to the development of Pietersburg and held high office. There was little anti-Semitism. From the 1960s, Jews began moving to the cities. The communal hall and minister’s house were sold in 1994 and the synagogue in 2003. Only the Jewish cemetery remains in Pietersburg. 10 key words: 1] Pietersburg [Polokwane] 2] Zoutpansberg 3] Anglo-Boer War 4] Jew 5] Synagogue 6] Cemetery 7] Rabbi 8] Hebrew 9] Zionist 10] Anti-Semitism ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank the following: Mr Cedric Ginsberg, my supervisor, for his invaluable assistance, patience and meticulous corrections The late Mr Wally Levy for his information concerning families and events in the Northern Transvaal. His prodigious memory was extremely helpful to me My husband Dennis and children Janine, Elian and Mandy, for their patience with my obsession to finish this thesis.

In over a century of performance, the army branch adjusted to changing times and new technological advances from single-shot to multiple-shot hand weapons for a person on horseback, to rapid-fire rifles, and eventually to an even more mobile horseless, motor-mounted force. After that change, some Americans still longed for at least one regiment to be remounted on horses, as General John Knowles Herr, the last chief of cavalry in the United States Army, appealed in 1953.

  • “Remarkable Stratagems and Conspiracies” : How Unscrupulous
    “REMARKABLE STRATAGEMS AND CONSPIRACIES”: HOW UNSCRUPULOUS LAWYERS AND CREDULOUS JUDGES CREATED AN EXCEPTION TO THE HEARSAY RULE Marianne Wesson* This essay has a somewhat different goal than the other contributions to this Symposium: rather than considering present-day ethical predicaments, it aims to inspire reflection on an episode in which improper and unprofessional conduct by attorneys contributed to the creation of the law of evidence. In particular, it considers the events that led to the formulation and enactment of a rule that persistently affects the conduct of trials even by the most responsible and ethical lawyers: the hearsay exception codified as Federal Rule of Evidence 803(3).1 The bare bones of the narrative are well-known to nearly every lawyer, as it has formed a staple of the study of the law of evidence since the date of the U.S. Supreme Court’s first decision on the matter in 1892, in Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York v. Hillmon.2 Even the lay public was transfixed by the story in its time; the tale of John Hillmon was the subject * Marianne Wesson, Professor of Law, Wolf-Nichol Fellow, and President’s Teaching Scholar, University of Colorado School of Law. The author is grateful for the excellent research and editorial assistance of Andrea Viedt in the preparation of this essay. 1. The rule provides an exception to the general rule excluding hearsay for a statement of the declarant’s then existing state of mind, emotion, sensation, or physical condition (such as intent, plan, motive, design, mental feeling, pain, and bodily health), but not including a statement of memory or belief to prove the fact remembered or believed unless it relates to the execution, revocation, identification, or terms of declarant’s will.
