I n- just criticism cannot rectify the errors that are sure to apjiear, and the author feels assured that all thoughtful jjeople will recognize and a])preciate the undertaking, also realize that a i)ublic benefit has been accomplished.

  • Morris Birkbeck's Estimate of the People of Princeton in 1817
    Morris Birkbeck’s Estimate of the People of Princeton in 1817 By LUCIUSC. EMBREE. A paper read at the meeting of the Southwestern Indiana Historical Society, May 27, 1925, at Newburg. It is a matter challenging the notice of the people of south- western Indiana, and especially of those of them who are descended from the pioneers of the early years of the nine- teenth century, that, on the part of the biographers of Abra- ham Lincoln, apparently very little effort has been made to ascertain the degree that the development of his nature and character was infiuenced by his environment, and associa- tions, during the fourteen years that he spent as a boy and young man in Spencer County and the surrounding localities. The attitude seems to have been that Lincoln’s contacts and associations during this period were negligible, and the im- pression conveyed by some of them is that the people of south- western Indiana, at that day, were ignorant, uncouth and lawless. In view of this attitude, and of the impression which it engenders in the minds of the readers of these productions, it behooves the good peop!e of the locality in question, and those of them especially who are the descendants of the pioneers, to take up arms in defense of the character and qualities of those who have gone before them. Persistence in ignoring, and misrepresenting, the people with whom the boy Lincoln came in contact in his early years, while he was growing from child- hood to man’s estate in this region, and in conveying the im- pression that these people were ignorant, uncouth and lawless, not only becomes tiresome, but demonstrates that those who have assumed to portray the life of Lincoln, and to define the process by which he became the man he was, have been want- ing in industry, and have neglected one of the most promising fields of inquiry.

    The 58th Annual High School Art Show: Virtual Exhibition Work by students from Gibson, Posey, Vanderburgh and Warrick Counties in Southwestern Indiana March 28 - April 25, 2021 This exhibition is presented in memory of Shirley K. Wright with a generous gift from Robert B. and Marianna S. Wright in partnership with The Friends of the Evansville Museum Erin Berger Claudia Congleton & Timothy Weir Kimberly & Douglas Johnson Princeton Community High School Jon Siau This Exhibition is presented in Memory of Shirley Kremp Wright (1929-2003) Shirley Wright is remembered as a woman of tremendous style and a great love of the arts. A wife, mother of five and grandmother to ten, she had an amazing ability to provide encouragement and was considered to be “the glue that held her family together.” In 1963, only one year after the Evansville Museum Guild was formed, Shirley Wright suggested that the volunteer association organize an art exhibition of the work of local high school students. The High School Art Show has made an important impact on the lives of literally thousands of young artists enrolled in public, private, and parochial high schools in Southwestern Indiana. In recognition of Shirley Wright’s myriad gifts and the tremendous legacy she has provided with the establishment of this annual art competition, we are deeply honored to dedicate this exhibition to her memory. JUROR’S STATEMENT Henri Mattise said, “Creativity takes courage”. As I judged the many wonderful submissions for this year’s art show, the one consistent theme that tied each piece together for me was just that… courage.
