Hinks TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS REWARD. Ran away from the subscriber, living in Anne Arundel county, and near the Governor’s Bridge P.O., on Saturday night last, without any cause or provocation, a short, well-set NEGRO MAN, of dark complexion, grum [sic] appearance, down look, slow of speech and motion. He calls himself Perry Anderson, and is about 30 years of age. Had good clothing, such as grey pants, red vest, chocolate colored coat, and black fur hat. There are reasons to suppose he may be lurking in or about the District of Columbia, as it is likely he is in company with a tall bright mulatto man belonging to Mr. James W. Kent, who absconded at the same time, and who has a wife at Mr. Clement Hilliary’s, near Bladensburg. I will give the above reward of two hundred dollars if taken out of the State, and secured so that I get him again, or one hundred dollars any where in the District of Columbia or State of Maryland. DANIEL KENT, M.D. $200 REWARD.—Ran away from Mr. McJilton’s [?] , No. 111 South High street, Baltimore, on Thursday, the 14th May, (where she has been hired for the last twelve months,) my Negro Woman HARRIET, aged about 18 years, about five feet high, stout built [sic] , a heavy suit of hair and of light complexion. She has on one of her hands the mark of a blackberry, also a cavity in one of her fron teeth, which makes her look as though she had lost one of them. No other mark remembered. I will give the above reward for [type missing] apprehension and saf delivery to Mr. JAS. GILM[type missing], No. 3 Aisquith street, if taken out of the State [type missing]aryland, and One Hundred Dollars if taken in the State. JOHN DILLOHAY IMPORTANT INFORMATION SENT TO MARRIED MEN.—Address, with four postage stamps, Dr. A. J. THURDELL, New York city [sic] . $200 Reward I WILL GIVE THE ABOVE REWARD OF $ 00 [sic] for my Negro Man WASHINGTON, if delivered in any Jail in this or the adjoining Counties, or to Mr. W. W. Hall’s Jail in Norfolk city, uninjured. The said Negro is about 5 feet, 7 to 8 inches high, not quick spoken, has a scar on either his right or left hand. Has a father about Deep Creek, and a mother at Mr. F. Perrier’s in Norfolk city. The last I heard of him, he was as a free man, oystering near Norfolk. SUFFOLK. Nov. 29 BENJ. D. SMITH Still Journal C, Page 2 of 330 ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS REWARD.—I will give the above reward for the apprehension of my MEN, BEN and JAMES. When last seen they were in Westmoreland county, Virginia, when they were making great efforts to escape in vessels freighting with wood for the North, and may possibly have succeeded in reaching Baltimore, from which place they will no doubt attempt to go North. Ben is of a light brown complexion, 23 or 24 years old, of ordinary size, has rather a bushy head, with one of his front teeth half broken off. He has with him a good supply of clothes, the kind of which is not particularly known, but I believe there is among them a blue cloth coat with a short skirt, quite wide, and has both a hat and cap. Ben possesses more than ordinary intelligence, and will be very dexterous in making his escape to a free State. James, who is the brother of Ben, is alos of a light brown complexion, about 18 or 20 years old, rather under Ben’s size, but resembles him very much in appearance. Has wide front teeth, and speaks quickly when spoken to. James’ supply of clothes is not very good, nor is the kind known, but I believe he left with a light cloth sack coat and a cap. Ben and James are no doubt in company. I will give the above REWARD of ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS if apprehended out of the State, and FIFTY if taken in, so that I get them again.

His father, a negro, named Noah, formerly the property of the late Thomas Twine, is living in or abo[ut] Norfolk, and it is supposed Andrew is with him.

ANDERSON. FIFTY DOLLARS REWARD.—Ran away from the subscriber, living near Upper Marlborough, Prince George’s county, Md., on Monday, 25th of August, negro man LEWIS. He is about forty years of age, five feet ten or eleven inches high, black complexion, is crippled in the knee and one leg, believed to be the right, and it inclines so much as to run against the other in walking. He generally walks with a cane. He is also suffering from hernia, and is in consequence compelled to wear a truss. I will give a reward of fifty dollars for his apprehension if taken out of the county, and twenty-five dollars if taken in the county. In either case he must be brought home or secured in jail so that I can get him again. THOMAS CLAGETT. $100 REWARD.—Ran away from Mr. E. Wroe’s, Washington city, my Negro Woman CHARLOTTE. She is about 23 years of age, stout made, not over the medium height, of bright copper color, good suit of hair, rather sulky when spoken to. The above reward will be given for her apprehension if taken out of the District of Columbia, and fifty dollars if taken within the limits of the District; in either case she must be secured in the Washington city or Baltimore jails. Any information addressed to G. CLARK, 93 McElderry’s wharf, Baltimo[…]re, will be properly attended to. ELEANOR CONAWAY. FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS REWARD. Ran away from the subscriber, living on Long Green, Baltimore county, Md., NEGRO MAN JAKE, who calls himself JAKE DUPEN; he is a dark mulatto, about thirty years of age, five feet six or seven inches high, rather delicately made; the thumb of the left hand has been sprained, which gives it a clumsy appearance, and has also a large scar on the back of the right, caused by a cut. Had on when he left home (and I believe no others were taken) a pair of blue pants, with a light stripe running down them, black frock coat, and a light colored felt hat.

  • Dignitatis Humanae and the Development of Moral Doctrine: Assessing Change in Catholic Social Teaching on Religious Liberty
    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA Dignitatis humanae and the Development of Moral Doctrine: Assessing Change in Catholic Social Teaching on Religious Liberty A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the School of Theology and Religious Studies Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Philosophy By Barrett Hamilton Turner Washington, D.C 2015 Dignitatis humanae and the Development of Moral Doctrine: Assessing Change in Catholic Social Teaching on Religious Liberty Barrett Hamilton Turner, Ph.D. Director: Joseph E. Capizzi, Ph.D. Vatican II’s Declaration on Religious Liberty, Dignitatis humanae (DH), poses the problem of development in Catholic moral and social doctrine. This problem is threefold, consisting in properly understanding the meaning of pre-conciliar magisterial teaching on religious liberty, the meaning of DH itself, and the Declaration’s implications for how social doctrine develops. A survey of recent scholarship reveals that scholars attend to the first two elements in contradictory ways, and that their accounts of doctrinal development are vague. The dissertation then proceeds to the threefold problematic. Chapter two outlines the general parameters of doctrinal development. The third chapter gives an interpretation of the pre- conciliar teaching from Pius IX to John XXIII. To better determine the meaning of DH, the fourth chapter examines the Declaration’s drafts and the official explanatory speeches (relationes) contained in Vatican II’s Acta synodalia. The fifth chapter discusses how experience may contribute to doctrinal development and proposes an explanation for how the doctrine on religious liberty changed, drawing upon the work of Jacques Maritain and Basile Valuet.

  • Henry Mcneal Turner
    Henry McNeal Turner Nationalist, Repatriationist, PanAfricanist, Minister, Author SECTION ONE SOURCE: https://blackpast.org/aah/turner-henry-mcneal-1834-1915 Black Nationalist, repatriationist, and minister, Henry M. Turner was 31 years old at the time of the Emancipation. Turner was born in 1834 in Newberry Courthouse, South Carolina to free black parents Sarah Greer and Hardy Turner. The self-taught Turner by the age of fifteen worked as a janitor at a law firm in Abbeville, South Carolina. The firm’s lawyers noted his abilities and helped with his education. However, Turner was attracted to the church and after being converted during a Methodist religious revival, decided to become a minister. He joined the African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church and became a licensed minister in 1853 at the age of 19. Turner soon became an itinerant evangelist traveling as far as New Orleans, Louisiana. By 1856 he married Eliza Peacher, the daughter of a wealthy African American house builder in Columbia, South Carolina. The couple had fourteen children but only four of them survived into adulthood. In 1858 Turner entered Trinity College in Baltimore, Maryland where he studied Latin, Greek, Hebrew and theology. Two years later he became the pastor of the Union Bethel Church in Washington, D.C. Turner cultivated friendships with important Republican Congressional figures including Ohio Congressman Benjamin Wade, Pennsylvania Congressman Thaddeus Stevens, and Massachusetts Senator Charles Sumner. Turner had already become a national figure when in 1863 at the age of 29 he was appointed by President Lincoln to the position of Chaplain in the Union Army.

In order to avoid confusion, a date which in the modern calendar would be written 2 February 1714 is written 2 February 1713/4 - i.e. the baptism, marriage or burial occurred in the 3 months (January, February and the first 3 weeks of March) of 1713 which 'rolled over' into what in a modern calendar would be 1714. • Civil registration was introduced in England and Wales in 1837 and records were archived quarterly; hence, for example, 'born in 1840Q1' the author here uses to mean that the birth took place in January, February or March of 1840. Where only a baptism date is given for an individual born after 1837, assume the birth was registered in the same quarter.

  • Richard Allen and the Prehistory of Engaged Community Learning at Hbcus
    © 2011, Elizabeth Kimball. Richard Allen and the Prehistory of Engaged Community Learning at HBCUs Elizabeth Kimball, Drew University This essay argues that African American church founder Richard Allen (1760-1831) developed a rhetorical pedagogy that prefigures the community literacy partnerships of later Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). While Allen did not enjoy the material opportunities of institutionalized higher learning, we can interpret passages from his autobiography as a rhetorical pedagogy that affirms the ways of knowing in language of his community, suggests a relationship between language and the truth, and points toward a community pedagogy rooted in language. Allen also figures as •••••••••••••••••••••••••• a rhetor whose own higher literacy is sponsored by his community, and who returns his rhetorical power to the community for its own betterment. These same dimensions can be witnessed in the pedagogies of later nineteenth-century African American educators, particularly that of Fanny Jackson Coppin of the Institute for Colored Youth, and Daniel A. Payne of Wilberforce University. Moreover, Allen’s very lack of formalized schooling affords us a way of reframing contemporary efforts in university and community partnerships, and offers compelling precedent for Linda Flower’s model of inquiry. For African American higher learning, community literacy partnerships are not merely an additive element of a traditional curriculum; instead, •••••••••••••••••••••••••• they are the lifeblood of the school itself.
