If you would like more information, please contact us at [email protected]. INTRODUCTION At age 24, Mary Dwight Eaman spent a year traveling around the world with her cousin, Mary A. Eaman. Traveling westward, they made stops in Hawaii, Japan, China, Southeast Asia, India, the Middle East, Europe, Scandinavia, Russia, and New York City. The journal, correspondence, photographs, and postcards in the collection relate specifically to this trip. DONOR INFORMATION The papers were donated to the University of Missouri by Frances B. Kerridge on 29 April 1983 (Accession No. 4504). BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Mary Dwight Eaman was born to Charles and Harriet Martin Eaman in Arizona Territory on 3 November 1888. She moved to Garden City, Kansas, at age 10. After her marriage on 16 May 1915 to Haden H. Bright, brother of Clarkson Joel Bright and Rella Bright Evans, she moved to Mildred, Montana. She had one daughter, Harriet Frances Bright (Kerridge). In 1936 they moved to Columbia, Missouri, and lived in Haden House on the Bright family farm. Mary died at age 93 in Columbia on 12 December 1981. SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE This collection gives a fascinating account of a trip around the world by a young school teacher and her elderly cousin. In the journal, which she kept daily, and the letters and postcards which she wrote to her parents, Mary Eaman not only described the places she visited, the people she saw, her travel companions, the food, accommodations, and transportation, but she also gave her reactions to the many new experiences. She delighted in her rides on elephants, camels, and donkeys and in her camping trips through the deserts of Egypt and Palestine. She commented on the people and events back home that her parents wrote about. Some of her letters were published by her hometown newspaper. Several of the letters in the collection were written by cousin Mary A. Eaman to Mary’s parents. The journal begins on 9 September 1912 as Mary left Kansas and ends on 6 September 1913 with her arrival in New York City. The correspondence dates from 10 September 1912 to 24 September 1913. Letters from April 1913 are missing. The correspondence is filed chronologically. The photographs and postcards are grouped geographically by country in the order in which she visited them. Tour programs, maps, receipts, menus, tickets, etc., are filed at the end of the collection.

  • Those Who Set the Stage to Understand the 1916 Rising and The
    3.0 Those who Set the Stage To understand the 1916 Rising and the motivation and points of view of the participants it is necessary to study the political, social, cultural and intellectual background. Most of the personalities reviewed in this section did not take part in the Rising - many of them were absolutely opposed - but all contributed directly or indirectly. Since the time of Parnell constitutional nationalists aimed at securing Home Rule, that is, a limited measure of self-government to be exercised through a parliament in Dublin. Following the general elections of 1910, the nationalist Irish Parliamentary Party led by John Redmond held the balance of power in the House of Commons, a position which enabled them to force Asquith’s Liberal government to address the issue of Home Rule for Ireland. The House of Lords was implacably opposed, but their power of veto over legislation was drastically curbed by the Parliament Act (1911). Faced with the prospect of Home Rule and an Irish parliament in which they would be outnumbered by Catholic nationalists, the Protestant Ulster unionists, led by Sir Edward Carson and James Craig, reacted strongly. In September 1912, over 200,000 men signed the Solemn League and Covenant pledging resistance to Home Rule. The following January, the Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) was established, a quota of 100,000 signatories of the Covenant soon being enrolled. In effect, the unionists established a private army to oppose the enactment or implementation of Home Rule - drilling was allowed provided it was authorised by two magistrates. 1 3.0 Those who set the stage When the government attempted to take action, fifty-eight senior army officers at army headquarters at the Curragh, Co.

  • The Buffalo Soldiers in Vermont, 1909–1913
    The Buffalo Soldiers in Vermont, 1909–1913 The arrival of the Tenth Cavalry sent Burlington into demographic shock. Almost overnight the small city acquired a substantial black community, a situation that clearly dismayed many residents. By David Work n July 1909, the Tenth United States Cavalry Regiment, one of four regular army black regiments collectively known as the Buffalo ISoldiers, arrived in Burlington, Vermont, to begin a four-year tour of duty at Fort Ethan Allen in neighboring Colchester. Their arrival alarmed the almost exclusively white population. Many people feared the presence of sizable numbers of African American soldiers in their community and a bitter debate ensued over whether the city should adopt Jim Crow facilities. For the next four years, the Tenth Cavalry would encounter similar reactions as it traveled throughout the north- east and as far south as Winchester, Virginia. Wherever they went, the black soldiers faced fear and suspicion and had to demonstrate good behavior to win the acceptance of the white population. Created in 1866, the Tenth Cavalry achieved its greatest fame in the late nineteenth century on the western frontier and then served with distinction during the Spanish-American War. In that conflict, the regi- ment charged up San Juan Hill with Theodore Roosevelt’s Rough Riders and won public renown as the “fighting Tenth Cavalry.” In the early twentieth century, the Tenth fought in the Philippine War, served in ..................... DAVID WORK earned his Ph.D. in American history in May 2004 at Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas. He is currently teaching at Texas A&M Uni- versity in Doha, Qatar.

Yeats's "September 1913" and the Irish P By Memory Inspired: W. B. Yeats's "September 1913" and the Irish Political Ballad by ADELE M. DALSIMER B. YEATS wrote five poems in response to the controversy stirred W• by Sir Hugh Lane's offer of his collection of paintings to the city of Dublin. Of these Poems Written in Discouragement, "September 1913" is deservedly the best known and the most significant. Indeed, "September 1913" is a brilliant response to a specific public controversy as well as to a condition which Yeats perceived in Ireland as a whole. Following a venerable Irish tradition, he chose the ballad form to ex­ press his attitudes towards a national situation. In 1907 Sir Hugh Lane, Lady Gregory's nephew and a man greatly respected by Yeats, lent his excellent collection of modern French paintings to Dublin and offered to give them to the city if the Municipal Corporation could assure him that they would be appropriately housed. Lane favored a design by the English architect Sir Edward Luytens for a bridge gallery over the Liffey, but this plan gained little support.
