  • Challenging Perceptions of the Lawyer As Civic Linchpin In
    Where Did All the Lawyers Go? Challenging Perceptions of the Lawyer as Civic Linchpin in New Haven: 1830‐1890 By: Leslie Esbrook1 ‐But above all a lawyer will find his highest honor in a deserved reputation for fidelity to private trust and to public duty, as an honest man and as a patriotic and loyal citizen. –The Final Prays of the Canon of Ethics2 Lawyers have traditionally been portrayed as models for civic representation, epitomized by their role in the founding of the Republic. In recent studies a consensus has formed around the idea that the legal profession lost its civic‐mindedness, sometime between the nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth centuries. Consequently, the story goes, lawyers have lost a key part of the profession that elevated the law to a higher plane compared to other career paths. This paper will explore the history of this shift using New Haven and the greater Connecticut forum for empirical data. The paper will challenge the historical narrative by detailing internal inconsistencies amongst leading scholars, both in terms of time frame of decline and the amount and kind of civic participation envisioned as exemplary. I will show that, at least at the local level in New Haven, the shift of lawyers as history remembers did not occur in a radical, sudden fashion at all; by the end of the century a non‐trivial amount of lawyers continued to fully participate in civic life. Finally, I will track prevalent theories behind the myth of the lawyer’s civic decline and superimpose them on the facts relative to New Haven to show that the conflicting results accrued from the data support the absence of causal findings for the current theories in vogue.

Criticisms of these two groups could often be found in the same northern evangelical journal, if not on the same page. Words such as “despotism” and “tyranny” described both the theological condi- tion of the Catholic Church and the political condition of the South. Slavery and Catholicism were labeled incompatible with republican insti- tutions and bereft of the virtues necessary to sustain a democratic people.

  • Indiana Magazine of History Volume Xxxv March, 1939 Number1
    INDIANA MAGAZINE OF HISTORY VOLUME XXXV MARCH, 1939 NUMBER1 Land Policy and Tenancy in the Prairie Counties of Indiana* PAULWALLACE GATES The great prairie section of Indiana stretching from the Wabash to the Kankakee today challenges the attention of agricultural economists and social planners because of the high rate of farm tenancy, the large average size of farms, the declining population of the rural areas, the poor tenant homes that do not harmonize with the richness of the sur- rounding soil, and a type of farming which for two gener- ations has been depleting the soil and reducing its ferti1ity.l This section, a continuation of the Grand Prairie of Illi- nois, has had an agricultural history sharply different from that of southern Indiana. In three prairie counties, Benton, Newton, and White, more than half of the farms are oper- ated by tenants and in three others, Jasper, Warren and Tip- pecanoe, over 40% are tenant operated. On the Illinois side of the Grand Prairie the rate of tenancy is even higher. Contrast this with the sixteen counties in southern Indiana which have less than 20% of their farms operated by tenants The largest farms in Indiana are also to be found in the prairie counties. Two farms totalling over 17,000 acres are reported from Newton County, and Jasper and Newton each contain eleven other farms over 1,000 acres in size. In Benton and Newton Counties, the average size of farms is well over 200 acres, and, in White, Warren and Jasper, it is over 160 acres. In few southern counties does the average size of farms exceed 125 acres.

ByV I a y of Introduction WHILE I w as living in the home of that sturdy Puritan governor, William Leete, — my native town of Guil ford, — the idea suggested itself to me that inasmuch as a collection of the biographies of the chief executives of Connecticut had never been made, the work would afford an interesting and agreeable undertaking. This was in the year 1895. 1 began the task, but before it had far progressed it offered what seemed to me insurmountable obstacles, so that for a time the collection of data concerning the early rulers of the state was entirely abandoned. A few years later the work was again resumed and carried to completion. The manuscript was requested by a magazine editor for publication and appeared serially in " The Connecticut Magazine." To R ev. Samuel Hart, D.D., president of the Connecticut Historical Society, I express my gratitude for his assistance in deciding some matters which were subject to controversy.

    Appendix 5. Microfilmed Materials Not in Stiles Papers This list contains brief descriptions of materials in Yale repositories relating to Ezra Stiles that are not located in the Stiles Papers but were included in the 1978 microfilm edition of the Papers.

This list is organized by series, and files are in order as found in each series in the microfilm edition.
