ARCHAEOLOGICAL EXCAVATION OF STATE CIRCLE, ANNAPOLIS, MARYLAND by Esther Doyle Read Contributions by Jean Russo George Logan Brett Burk Mark P. Leone, PhD Barbara J. Little, PhD Principal Investigators 30 June 1990 Report prepared for the City of Annapolis by "Archaeology in Annapolis" A cooperative project between The Historic Annapolis Foundation and The University of Maryland, College Park ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Funding for the State Circle Archaeological Project was provided by the City of Annapolis. The State of Maryland provided the City with the bulk of funding for the undergrounding of the utilities and also provided the bulk of the funds for the archaeological component of the project. All of the State funds were administered through the State's Department of General Services. The funds allotted to the City were administered by the City's Department of Public Works. The City of Annapolis, Department of Public Works administered the funds for the archaeological project. Historic Annapolis Foundation administered the funds for the archaeological project under an agreement with the city's Department of Public Works. The University of Maryland, College Park, through its Department of Anthropology, provided all the labor and supervision for the archaeological project. The Maryland Historical Trust, a division of the State's Department of Housing and Community Development facilitated the agreements between the State, the City, and Historic Annapolis k oundation. Numerous individuals contributed to the success of this project. I would like to thank Govenor William Donald Schaffer for his support of the archaeological work done on State Circle. Earl Seboda, Director of the State Department of General Services and Jerry Walls, Chief of the Department of General Services Police, as well as their staffs, were always supportive throughout the project. -
A TUB to the WHALE": the FOUNDING FATHERS and ADOPTION of the FEDERAL BILL of RIGHTS Kenneth R
"A TUB TO THE WHALE": THE FOUNDING FATHERS AND ADOPTION OF THE FEDERAL BILL OF RIGHTS Kenneth R. Bowling Seamen have a custom, when they meet a whale, to fling him out an empty tub by way of amusement, to divert him from laying violent hands upon the ship. Jonathan Swift, Tale of a Tub (1704) Like a barrel thrown to the whale, the people were to be amused with fancied amendments, until the harpoon of power, should secure its prey and render resistance ineffectual. [Samuel Bryan], ''Centinel NO. 19, ' ' (Philadel- phia) Independent Gazetteer, October 7, 1788 The constitutional role of the federal Bill of Rights has been monu- mental. This fact would surprise most members of the First Federal Congress, the body which reluctantly proposed to the states the con- stitutional amendments later called the Bill of Rights.' The Federalist Mr. Bowling is a member of the First Federal Congress Project at George Wash- ington University, Washington, D.C. This article is based upon a chapter in his "Politics in the First Congress, 1789-1791" (Ph.D. diss., University of Wisconsin 1968). Additional research was conducted under a grant from the National Endow- ment for the Humanities. ' Although much has been written about the Bill of Rights, very little of it re- lates to the legislative history of its adoption. This is particularly true about the polit- ical aspects, most of which are contained in previously unstudied manuscripts. Robert A. Rutland, The Birth of the Bill of Rights, 1776-1791 (Chapel Hill 1955), which focuses on the background of the amendments, aptly summarizes its passage through the First Federal Congress. -

BULL RUN MOUNTAIN HOUSE, SITE 44FQ0313 Fauquier County, Virginia WSSI #22316.01
BULL RUN MOUNTAIN HOUSE, SITE 44FQ0313 Fauquier County, Virginia WSSI #22316.01 Phase I Archeological Investigation (±0.65 acres) December, 2013 Prepared for: Fauquier County Department of Community Development 10 Hotel Street, 3rd Floor Warrenton, Virginia 20186 Prepared by: Boyd Sipe, M.A., RPA and Andrés E. Garzón-Oechsle 5300 Wellington Branch Drive, Suite 100 Gainesville, Virginia 20155 Tel: 703-679-5600 Email: [email protected] www.wetlandstudies.com ABSTRACT A Phase I archeological investigation was conducted within a ±0.65 acre portion of the ±3.3 acre site 44FQ0313, the Bull Run Mountain House site located in Bull Run Mountains Natural Area Preserve in Fauquier County, Virginia. Additionally, a public outreach component was undertaken that included the excavation of two test units. Thunderbird Archeology, a division of Wetland Studies and Solutions, Inc., of Gainesville, Virginia, conducted the studies for Fauquier County Planning Division of Warrenton, Virginia. The fieldwork was carried out in September and October of 2013. The historic artifact assemblage recovered from the site indicates that the intensive historic occupation of site 44FQ0313 may have dated from circa 1785 to circa 1825 during John Monday’s ownership of the property. The late historic finds, represented primarily by bottle glass dating to the late 19th century and early 20th century may be associated with the reported ephemeral use of the property as a hunting lodge or retreat during these periods. A previously unknown prehistoric component of the site that likely dates to the Archaic period (8000 B.C. – 1000 B.C.) was also discovered during the Phase I investigations. -
MIDNIGHT JUDGES KATHRYN Turnu I
[Vol.109 THE MIDNIGHT JUDGES KATHRYN TuRNu I "The Federalists have retired into the judiciary as a strong- hold . and from that battery all the works of republicanism are to be beaten down and erased." ' This bitter lament of Thomas Jefferson after he had succeeded to the Presidency referred to the final legacy bequeathed him by the Federalist party. Passed during the closing weeks of the Adams administration, the Judiciary Act of 1801 2 pro- vided the Chief Executive with an opportunity to fill new judicial offices carrying tenure for life before his authority ended on March 4, 1801. Because of the last-minute rush in accomplishing this purpose, those men then appointed have since been known by the familiar generic designation, "the midnight judges." This flight of Federalists into the sanctuary of an expanded federal judiciary was, of course, viewed by the Republicans as the last of many partisan outrages, and was to furnish the focus for Republican retaliation once the Jeffersonian Congress convened in the fall of 1801. That the Judiciary Act of 1801 was repealed and the new judges deprived of their new offices in the first of the party battles of the Jeffersonian period is well known. However, the circumstances surrounding the appointment of "the midnight judges" have never been recounted, and even the names of those appointed have vanished from studies of the period. It is the purpose of this Article to provide some further information about the final event of the Federalist decade. A cardinal feature of the Judiciary Act of 1801 was a reform long advocated-the reorganization of the circuit courts.' Under the Judiciary Act of 1789, the judicial districts of the United States had been grouped into three circuits-Eastern, Middle, and Southern-in which circuit court was held by two justices of the Supreme Court (after 1793, by one justice) ' and the district judge of the district in which the court was sitting.5 The Act of 1801 grouped the districts t Assistant Professor of History, Wellesley College. -
