NEA is a volunteer-run organization; without the participation of its members, NEA would cease to function. There are many committees, offices, and projects that need assistance from members. Professionals in the archival field already possess skills and experience needed to support and advance New England Archivists. The opportunity to meet, converse, and do meaningful work with colleagues is of great professional and personal benefit.

While about to do battle against the legions of Maxentius which outnumbered his own 4 to 1, Constantine had a vision in which he saw a compound symbol (chi and rho , the beginning of ) appearing in the cloudy heavens,1 and heard “Under this sign you will be victorious.” He placed the symbol on his helmet and on the shields of his soldiers, and Maxentius’s horse threw him into the water at Milvan (Mulvian) Bridge and the Roman commander was drowned (what more could one ask God for?). 1. In a timeframe in which no real distinction was being made between astrology and astronomy, you will note, seeing a sign like this in the heavens may be classed as astronomy quite as readily as it may be classed as astrology.

  • The French Canadians of Burlington and Colchester, 1850-1890
    HISTORY SPRING 1989 VOL. 57, No. 2 84 Community-Building in Uncertain Times: The French Canadians of Burlington and Colchester, 1850-1860 ... the decade of the 1850s was a momentous one for the area's French Canadians, a period during which they evolved from an ill-defined cluster of settlers to a S•elf-conscious ethnic community. By BETSY BEATTIE he 1850s in Burlington and Colchester were years of economic change and insecurity. New industries rose tentatively out of T the dislocations brought about by the arrival of the railroad, the changing lumber industry, and the failure of the Burlington Mill Com­ pany, which in 1850 had been the largest employer in the area. These new enterprises held out the promise of rekindled, redirected industrial develop­ ment for the region, but by 1860 most of them were struggling just to survive. The financial panic of 1857 and the reduction of tariffs on tex­ tiles further retarded growth. For French Canadians in the Burlington area, the future seemed even less secure. They had been entering Burlington and Colchester in sizable numbers since the 1820s and 1830s, and by 1850 totaled more than one thousand, the largest concentration of French Canadians in the state. While their numbers increased seventy-one percent across the decade of the 1850s, their overall economic status apparently declined, and the changing com­ position of the population caused by the constant influx and outflow of residents added to the general sense of instability. In spite of these serious problems, the decade of the 1850s was a momentous one for the area's French Canadians, a period during which they evolved from an ill-defined cluster of settlers to a self-conscious ethnic community.

  • Chapterfne the Jesuit Heritage in Central Massachusetts
    CHAPTERFNE THE JESUIT HERITAGE IN CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS Worcester County in central Massachusetts embraces a population of close to 640,000 spread throughout fifty-six connecting towns around such major cities as Worcester, Leominster, Fitchburg and Gardner. In this central part of the Bay State, there are some 350,000 Roman Catholics who are members of the Diocese of Worcester which was established on 14 January 1950. The relationship of the Jesuits to this geo­ graphical area can be seen in the early period of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries when Indians from the Jesuit missions of Canada took captives from this area, in the modem period of the nineteenth century when the College of the Holy Cross came into existence, and in the contemporary period of the twentieth century when the Jesuit contribution to Worcester County perdures. I In reviewing the early period of the Jesuits and central Massachusetts, the story is like that of other parts of the Bay State, for Catholics and their priests were held in distrust and hostility here as well. The anti-Jesuit law passed by Massachu­ setts in 1647 was a formal manifestation of this. There is no reason to believe that tho~e who settled such areas as Brook­ field,· Westborough and Worcester before King Philip's War (1675-76) rejected it. And if one may judge from the wor~s listed in the Mather Collection of the American Antiquarian Society in Worcester, the leading· Puritan divines were extreme­ ly interested in anti-Jesuit tracts. Before John Eliot, the first missionary to Worcester, visited the" Nipmuck Indians on Pakachoag Hill (appro~imately the site of the College of the Holy Cross today) in 167 4, he had exhibited remarkable hospitality when Father Gabriel Druil- - 108 - The Jesuit Heritage in Central Massachusetts lettes, a Jesuit missionary to the Abnakis, came to his home in Roxbury on 28 December 1650.

The collection consists of original letters and documents from the year that Fenwick was ordained as a Jesuit [1808] until his death 38 years later. The papers are arranged alphabetically by correspondent in three manuscript boxes. It appears that the Fenwick papers were first put into some kind of order in the 1930's when Fathers Robert H. Lord, John E. Sexton, and Edward T. Harrington were researching and writing their History of the Archdiocese of Boston 1604-1943. At this time the original manuscripts held by the Archdiocese were placed in individual folders and arranged chronologically in file cabinets. One cabinet contained original material and another held typescripts, photostats, and other copies of documents held by other archives that were gathered as part of the research effort. The outside of each folder noted the author and the recipient of the letter. Some of the letters were located in a bound volume along with letters that related to the episcopate of John Bernard Fitzpatrick. These letters had been pasted into the book prior to the time that Lord, Sexton, and Harrington began their research, although the volume was probably rebound at that time. It is possible that the letters had been compiled by either Fenwick or Fitzpatrick and placed randomly in the book.
