  • The Domestic Life of William Gaston, Catholic Jurist
    THE DOMESTIC LIFE OF WILLIAM GASTON, CATHOLIC JURIST By J. HERMAN SCHAUINGER Assistant Professor of History in Gannon College Reprinted from THE CATHOLIC HISTORICAL REVIEW Vol. XXX, No. 4, January, 1945 THE DOMESTIC LIFE OF WILLIAM GASTON, CATHOLIC JURIST By J. HERMAN SCHAUINGER Assistant Professor of History in Gannon College Reprinted from THE CATHOLIC HISTORICAL REVIEW Vol. XXX, No. 4, January, 1945 D igitized by the Internet Archive in 2013 http://archive.org/details/domesticlifeofwischa THE DOMESTIC LIFE OF WILLIAM GASTON, CATHOLIC JURIST WHILE the most important facts in the lives of the men of the law can be gleaned from their legal decisions and political actions, the student may not overlook their domestic affairs, for very often explanations for their actions are only to be found in their private lives. So it was in the case of William Gaston, North Carolina legislator and jurist, an exemplary Catholic layman, friend of bishops and priests, kindly husband and father, and southern gentleman. The training of a pious mother and the teaching and example of the Jesuit fathers at Georgetown College laid the basis of his remarkable career. William J. Gaston was born in New Bern, North Carolina on September 19, 1778, and became one of the most famous lawyers and jurists that state ever produced. 1 His father, Alexander, was active in the patriot cause before the outbreak of the Revolution and was killed by the Tories in the midst of the war. Dr. Alexander Gaston came to New Bern sometime before May 1, 1764. 2 He was born in Ballymena, County Antrim, Ireland; the Gastons trace their family back to Jean Gaston, a French Huguenot, who fled to Scotland around 1640.

    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA A Church Apart: The Catholic Church in the Rural South, 1939-1990 A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the Department of History School of Arts & Sciences Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Philosophy By Seth R. Smith Washington, D.C. 2016 A Church Apart: The Catholic Church in the Rural South, 1939-1990 Seth R. Smith, Ph.D. Director: Leslie Woodcock Tentler, Ph.D. This dissertation examines Catholicism in the rural South to answer three questions. The first is how did priests and lay Catholics engage in a pluralistic American society before and after Vatican II while drastically outnumbered? The second is what did it mean to be part of the universal Catholic Church while isolated geographically, socially, and institutionally? Finally, how do we balance the impact of major national and international events on the Catholicism in the rural South with the importance of local context? This dissertation seeks to answer these questions by examining the history of seven parishes – four pastored by Glenmary Home Missioners and three pastored by non-Glenmarians – in the rural South between 1939 and 1990. Throughout much of the twentieth century, Southern Catholics were regarded with suspicion by their neighbors without the protections offered by numbers or their own confessional institutions. Catholics in the rural South dealt with this in two ways. The first was by emphasizing their Southerness. Apart from their religious beliefs, they were virtually indistinguishable from their fellow Southerners, and their views on politics, economics, and race hewed much closer to their non-Catholic neighbors than their co-religionists in the North.

    National Park Service Andersonville National Historic Site U.S. Department of the Interior The Trial of Henry Wirz Role - Sheet Mock Trial Curriculum Defense Team You are the defense team for Captain Henry Wirz. You are a civilian attorney that has been assigned by the United States government to defend Wirz against charges that he violated the laws of war. You must convince the members of the military tribunal that although conditions were bad at Andersonville, Henry Wirz did the best he could under the circumstances and did not intentionally mistreat prisoners or violate the laws of war. Your case: 1. Capt. Henry Wirz did not have command of the hospital or the medical care at Andersonville. Surgeons and other officers that outranked Wirz were responsible for those functions. 2. Capt. Henry Wirz was not responsible for who was sent to Andersonville; therefore he cannot be held responsible for the overcrowding. 3. Although there were shortages of food and clothing, Capt. Henry Wirz did the best he could to ensure that these supplies were given to the prisoners in a fair way. He was not responsible for the shortages. These resulted from the deteriorating economy of the Confederacy at the end of the war. Louis Schade - Defense Attorney for Henry Wirz 4. Capt. Henry Wirz did not beat, kill, or torture prisoners, or order others under his command to do so. 5. Capt. Henry Wirz was a member of the Confederate Army, and therefore cannot be held on trial by the United States Army, which he was not a member of.

  • Atlanta Catholic Centennial
    Atlanta Catholic Centennial Introduction OUR CITY'S CENTENNIAL: 1837 - 1937 CATHOLICISM IN THE EARLY DAYS This history of the Catholic Community of Atlanta, from its beginning through 1937, was published as a series of articles in the Saint Anthony's Parish News, Volumes 6 and 7, 1937-8. The first installment appeared in July 1937 as part of Atlanta's centennial celebrations. The importance of this work by T. J. O'Keefe, the founding editor of this unique monthly is two-fold. It is the only printed history of our community from the earliest days, and it corrects oversights made by other writers (see Appendix). May this be an interim testimonial to the big-heartedness and Catholic spirit of those who made Saint Anthony's Parish News, through the years. My personal thanks to Sister Mary Carmel Najjar, C.S.J., who typed this manuscript. Father John C. Kieran Saint Anthony's April 30, 1972 Conception and Birth The year 1837 saw the location of Atlanta actually determined by the driving of a stake at what is now the southwest corner of the junction of Central Avenue and Wall Street. This location was chosen by Stephen H. Long, Engineer-in-Chief of the authorized Western and Atlantic Railroad in compliance with an act of the Georgia Legislature and signed by Governor William Schley in December, 1836. It is doubtful whether the Governor or any of the legislators had the slightest idea that they had ordered the selection of a site for a town, let alone the metropolis of Atlanta, when they ordered a point selected for a railroad junction.
