  • "Fifth" Maryland at Guilford Courthouse: an Exercise in Historical Accuracy - L
    HOME CMTE. SUBMISSIONS THE "FIFTH" MARYLAND AT GUILFORD COURTHOUSE: AN EXERCISE IN HISTORICAL ACCURACY - L. E. Babits, February 1988 Over the years, an error has gradually crept into the history of the Maryland Line. The error involves a case of mistaken regimental identity in which the Fifth Maryland is credited with participation in the battle of Guilford Courthouse at the expense of the Second Maryland.[1] When this error appeared in the Maryland Historical Magazine,[2] it seemed time to set the record straight. The various errors seem to originate with Mark Boatner. In his Encyclopedia of the American Revolution, Boatner, while describing the fight at Guilford Courthouse, states: As the 2/Gds prepared to attack without waiting for the three other regiments to arrive, Otho Williams, "charmed with the late demeanor of the first regiment (I Md), hastened toward the second (5th Md) expecting a similar display...". But the 5th Maryland was virtually a new regiment. "The sight of the scarlet and steel was too much for their nerves," says Ward.[3] In this paragraph Boatner demonstrates an ignorance of the actual command and organizational structure of Greene's Southern Army because he quotes from Ward's l94l work on the Delaware Line and Henry Lee's recollections of the war, both of which correctly identify the unit in question as the Second Maryland Regiment.[4] The writer of the Kerrenhappuch Turner article simply referred to Boatner's general reference on the Revolutionary War for the regimental designation.[5] Other writers have done

They are confined to a brief period of great excitement in Baltimore, viz, after the riot of April 19, 1861, when Federal troops were attacked by the mob while being marched through the City streets, up to May 13th of that year, when General Butler, with a large body of troops occupied Federal Hill, after which Baltimore was substantially under control of the 1 Some months before his death in 1942 the late Charles McHenry Howard (a grandson of Charles Howard, president of the Board of Police in 1861) placed the papers here printed in the Editor's hands for examination, and offered to write an introduction if the Committee on Publications found them acceptable for the Magazine.

  • Pennsylvania Magazine
    THE PENNSYLVANIA MAGAZINE OF HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY. VOL. XXXVIII. 1914. No. 3. CHAELES WILLSON PEALE, ARTIST— SOLDIER. BY HORACE WELLS SELLERS. Writing from Arlington House in August 1857, to Rembrandt Peale the son, George Washington Parke Curtis pays this tribute to the father:— "Honor to the memory of the Soldier Artist, who hung up his palette in the Spring, girded on his sword and fought a campaign in the War of Independence— then resumed his palette and painted the portraits of the general officers and without whose artistic labors we should not have had the likeness of the illustrious soldier (Greene) who was only second to him who was first of all." This reference to the artist's services during the Revolution recalls an interesting period in his life but little known to his biographers and overshadowed per- haps by his later and better remembered activities. It is interesting to note that the career of Charles Willson Peale as a portrait painter had its beginning coincident with the events leading directly to the War, for it was about the year 1765 that he determined to make the art of painting his profession and finally abandoned the occupation on which, until then, he de- pended for a livelihood. VOL. XXXVIII.—17 257 258 Charles Willson Peale, Artist—Soldier. The death of his father in 1750, had left his family in reduced circumstances and four years later, at the age of thirteen, young Peale was apprenticed to one Nathan Waters, a saddler at Annapolis. In his auto- biography* he dwells at length upon his early experi- ences, and it appears that in return for special diligence and attention to his master's interests the term of his indenture was shortened, thus enabling him, at the age of twenty, to gain his freedom.

    REVOLUTIONARY MAIL BAG GOVERNOR THOMAS SIM LEE'S CORRESPONDENCE 1779 -1782 FROM ORIGINAL PENCIL DRAWING HY ROBERT S. PEABODY, IN POSSESSION OE AUTHOR. REVOLUTIONARY MAIL BAG: GOVERNOR THOMAS SIM LEE'S CORRESPONDENCE, 1779-1782 Edited by HELEN LEE PEABODY HE contents of a chest of several hundred unpublished letters T and papers, belonging to Thomas Sim Lee, Governor of Maryland during the American Revolution, form the basis of the following pages.1 The chest, containing these letters and private papers, together with the rest of his personal possessions, was inherited by his youngest son, John Lee, the only unmarried child still living with his father at the time of his death. John Lee, my grandfather, left his inheritance, the old family mansion, " Needwood," in Frederick County, and all it contained, to my father, Charles Carroll Lee. In this manner the chest of letters descended to the present generation. 1 There is no life of Lee. Standard accounts are to be found in the Dictionary of American Biography, XI, 132, and H.E. Buchholz, Governors of Maryland (Baltimore, 1908), pp. 9-13. 1 2 MARYLAND HISTORICAL MAGAZINE The papers—designated hereafter as the T. S. Lee Collection— when found, comprised over a thousand items. The papers were arranged in packages, tied with tape, and tabulated, which facili­ tated the onerous task of sorting and reading. Many had to be laid aside, as totally unsuited to a compilation of this kind. These comprised invoices, bills of lading, acknowledgements by London firms of hogsheads of tobacco received, orders for furniture, clothing, household utensils—all, in short, that made up the inter­ change of life between our Colonial ancestors and British mer­ chants.

  • Nathanael Greene, Thomas Jefferson and the Challenge of the Virginia Militia, 1780-1781*
    “This Dangerous Fire”: Nathanael Greene, Thomas Jefferson and the Challenge of the Virginia Militia, 1780-1781* John R. Maass From his army’s South Carolina bivouac along the upper Pee Dee River, the new Continental commander of the Southern Department, Major General Nathanael Greene, penned a lengthy letter on 10 January 1781 to his old friend Alexander Hamilton, with whom he had previously served in the northern theatre. Greene reported the numerous problems he faced in “keeping shoals of Militia on foot.”1 While he acknowledged the efficacy of some mounted militia units, Greene lamented that “the rest of the Militia are calculated [more] to destroy provisions than oppose the Enemy. .” This revealing letter epitomizes the general’s persistent complaint of “the folly of employing Militia” during his trying tenure as Continental commander in the southern states during the latter years of the war. This was particularly true regarding the unceasing attempts by Greene and Virginia Governor Thomas Jefferson to exploit the Old Dominion’s manpower resources in 1780 and 1781.2 Scholars have detailed the weaknesses of inexperienced, poorly equipped militia companies in battles against British regulars, as well as the chaos that resulted in the South when traditional norms surrounding violence broke down.3 Fewer studies, however, have detailed the larger challenge faced by General Greene and other local, state, and Continental officers throughout the war in the South: raising, equipping and keeping militia units in the field in a manner helpful to the American prosecution of the war. Although numerous contemporaries disparaged the militia for its many limitations, senior officers in the South were dependent on it to wage the war.
