    N.

A. T. HALL THE VICTOR VANQUISHED EMANCIPATION IN ST. CROIXJ ITS ANTECEDENTS AND IMMEDIATE AFTERMATH INTRODUCTION The slave uprising of 2-3 July 1848 in St. Croix, Danish West Indies, belongs to that splendidly isolated category of Caribbean slave revolts which succeeded if, that is, one defines success in the narrow sense of the legal termination of servitude. The sequence of events can be briefly rehearsed. On the night of Sunday 2 July, signal fires were lit on the estates of western St. Croix, estate bells began to ring and conch shells blown, and by Monday morning, 3 July, some 8000 slaves had converged in front of Frederiksted fort demanding their freedom. In the early hours of Monday morning, the governor general Peter von Scholten, who had only hours before returned from a visit to neighbouring St. Thomas, sum- moned a meeting of his senior advisers in Christiansted (Bass End), the island's capital. Among them was Lt. Capt. Irminger, commander of the Danish West Indian naval station, who urged the use of force, including bombardment from the sea to disperse the insurgents, and the deployment of a detachment of soldiers and marines from his frigate (f)rnen. Von Scholten kept his own counsels. No troops were despatched along the arterial Centreline road and, although he gave Irminger permission to sail around the coast to beleaguered Frederiksted (West End), he went overland himself and arrived in town sometime around 4 p.m.

  • The Writings of Ladies' Abolitionist Societies in Britain, Anna Wood "In Taking a View of the Means Which May Be Employed W
    The Writings of Ladies' Abolitionist Societies in Britain, 1825-1833 Anna Wood "In taking a view of the means which may be employed with advantage to effect the mitigation and ultimate extinction of NEGRO SLAVERY, it would be unpardonable to overlook THE LADIES OF THE UNITED KINGDOM, of all classes, and especially of the upper ranks, who have now an opportunity of exerting themselves beneficially in behalf of the most deeply injured of the human race." 1 On April 8, 1825, in the home of Lucy Townsend, the wife of an Anglican clergyman, forty four women gathered to establish the first women's anti-slavery society in Britain. Its initial name was the Ladies Society for the Relief of Negro Slaves, but later adopted the name Female Society for Birmingham. This society was committed to the "Amelioration of the Condition of the Unhappy Children of Africa, and especially of Female Negro Slaves."2 This formation preceded that of the first abolition society in the United States, the Boston Female Anti-Slavery Society, by seven years.3 The Birmingham society actively helped other societies form through various religious network connections. They "acted more like a national than a local society, actively promoting the foundation of local women's societies throughout England, and in Wales and Ireland, 1 Negro Slavery, to the Ladies of the United Kingdom, London, 1 824, Slavery and Anti Slavery, Gale, Wichita State University Libraries (DS 103 7001 86). 2 Clare Midgley, Women Against Slavery: The British Campaigns, 1780-1870 (London: Routledge, 1 992), 43-44. ; Wendy Hamand Venet, Neither Ballots nor Bullets: Women Abolitionists and the Civil War(Charlottesville, VA: University Press of Virginia, 1991 ), 4.

  • Records of the Office of Governor, 1820-1858 State Archives Record Group No
    Records of the Office of Governor, 1820-1858 State Archives Record Group No. 005 History Before the adoption of the Constitution of 1818, Connecticut governed itself by the Fundamental Orders (1639) and the Colonial Charter (1662). From 1776 to 1818, the provisions of the Charter remained in force except for the elimination of the words “Crown” and “Parliament.” The Orders and the Charter created the office of the governor, but did not make it an independent executive department. Except when exercising powers in wartime as “Captain-General” of the militia, the governor did not enjoy the powers granted late twentieth-century Connecticut governors. He presided over the General Court, later known as the General Assembly, and could vote only in cases of ties. Under the Charter, he sat as part of the Council, the colonial upper house. The governor could also convene the legislature for special business. In neither government was the governor an independent executive. His influence depended on his political skills. The State’s first written constitution of 1818 created three independent branches of government, the executive, legislative, and judicial. It “vested” the “supreme executive power” in the office of the governor.1 Another clause further mandated that the chief executive “take care that the laws be faithfully executed.” Only white men who were electors and had reached the age of thirty years were eligible for the office of governor. Annually in April all the qualified white electors in each town cast votes for gubernatorial candidates.2 On the first day of the May session of the legislature, the two houses examined the canvass reports and chose the governor.

  • Parker Pillsbury, Masculinity, and Women's Rights Activism in the Nineteenth-Century United States
    "Aunt Nancy Men": Parker Pillsbury, Masculinity, and Women's Rights Activism in the Nineteenth-Century United States Stacey M. Robertson Beginning in 1868 Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, and Parker Pillsbury published a radical women's rights newspaper appropriately entitled, The Revolution. Frustrated because the Fifteenth Amendment proposed to enfranchise Black men, but not women—and infuriated because almost all of their abolitionist colleagues continued to support the amendment despite its neglect of women, these radicals used their newspaper to construct an alternative vision of sexual relations grounded in economic, political, legal, sexual, and social equality.1 In response to this aggressive call for women's rights, the popular press attacked the radicals' sexual identity in an effort to reinforce the traditional gender roles which the women's rights movement openly challenged. "The Revolution,'" according to one Connecticut journalist, "is edited by two old and ugly ladies men, Mr. Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Mrs. Parker Pillsbury, and published by Mr. Susan B. Anthony.... Were we to select our own father from among the three it should be Stanton or Anthony in preference to Granny Pillsbury."2 While attempts to humiliate publicly women's rights activists reveal a basic fear of the threat posed by changes in gender roles for the entire social order, they underscore as well the connection between masculinity and the subordination of women. Pro-feminist men have often been represented as weak, impotent, and lacking in virility by opponents of women's rights and Parker Pillsbury was no 0026-3079/96/3702-033$ 1.50/0 33 Figure 1: Parker Pillsbury.

This sect of Christianity formed itself on the basis that any person could know and communicate with God because of an “Inner Light” that dwelt within all people. In 1668, a young aristocrat named William Penn joined the Society which had become known collectively as the Quakers.
