NEW CARLISLE the Story of Our Town 1835-1955 By: Marguerite Mccord Watt and Kathlyn V
NEW CARLISLE The Story of Our Town 1835-1955 By: Marguerite McCord Watt And Kathlyn V. Wade With Illustrations by John D. Miller TOPOGRAPHY The middle section of Olive Township is crossed by the Valparaiso Moraine. This ridge runs a little north of east through the township until it abruptly ends at about the middle of the Studebaker Providing Grounds on State Route 2, some two miles south and one half mile east of New Carlisle. The Valparaiso Moraine was undoubtedly the ridge of a high hill which held back the waters of the slowly melting glaciers. There is evidence that one of the mighty rivers from this source ran east from Lake Michigan through what is now Terre Coupe prairie until stopped by the high hills in the eastern part Warren Township. The water rose higher and higher until it finally ran over the hills in the vicinity of the proving grounds and thereby found a way south until it mingled it’s waters with the Kankakee River. The long continued flow of water finally washed the moraine entirely away and deposited it’s gravel and clay on the marsh land south of that point, where it eventually covered by muck. The valley of the old river was from eight to twelve miles wide and as century followed century, it became smaller and left it’s old shore shelves behind. New Carlisle is situated on the last of these shelves. Many years ago the land was covered by a heavy growth of timber, but a narrow belt of land about three-fourths of a mile wide always remained clear of timber.

'So Much Love in the Air'
Emmaus Walk Faith teaches us that prayer changes things, writes columnist Debra Tomaselli, page 12. Serving the Church in Central and Southern Indiana Since 1960 CriterionOnline.com February 22, 2019 Vol. LIX, No. 19 75¢ McCarrick removed ‘So much love in the air’ from the priesthood after being found guilty of abuse VATICAN CITY (CNS)—Pope Francis has confirmed the removal from the priesthood and episcopate of Theodore E. McCarrick, the 88-year-old former cardinal and archbishop of Washington. The Vatican announced the decision on Feb. 16, saying he was found guilty of “solicitation in the sacrament of confession and sins against the Sixth Commandment with minors and with adults, with the aggravating factor of the abuse of power.” A panel of the Congregation for Theodore E. Doctrine of the Faith McCarrick found him guilty on Jan. 11, the Vatican said. McCarrick appealed the decision, but the appeal was rejected on Feb. 13 by the congregation itself. McCarrick was informed of the decision on Feb. 15, and Pope Francis “recognized the definitive nature of this decision made in accord with law,” making a further appeal impossible. By ordering McCarrick’s “dismissal from the clerical state,” the decision means that McCarrick loses all rights and duties associated with being a priest and a bishop, Members of the archdiocesan group that traveled to World Youth Day in Panama pause for a photo amid the ruins of a Jesuit church in Panama City, a cannot present himself as a priest or a bishop, church that burned down in the mid-18th century and was never rebuilt.

The Race Issue in Indiana Politics During the Civil
The Race Issue in Indiana Politics during the Civil War Emma Lou Thornbrough* In recent years the Tallmadges-father and son-have won elections in Georgia by campaigning on the issue of "white supremacy." This type of appeal has not been limited to Georgia. The race question has also played a part in other states with heavy colored populations, but such campaigns are confined to the South today. However this has not always been the case. In the middle of the nineteenth century the race question was a very live political issue in Indiana. The census of 1860 showed Indiana as having a popula- tion of 11,428 Negroes as compared with a total of 1,338,710 whites. In other words the Negroes constituted less than one per cent of the total. Figures of successive censuses from 1800 to 1860 showed that the number of Negroes in Indiana relative to the white population had steadily declined.' Nev- ertheless the race issue had a conspicuous place in Indiana politics until after the Civil War. It is well known that there had been an influential pro- slavery group in Indiana Territory and that the territorial legislature had passed an indenture law which amounted to a thinly disguised slavery.* With the achievement of state- hood the party opposed to slavery was in the ascendancy, but the state legislature continued to manifest a strong bias against the free Negroes already in the state and took mea- sures to prevent an increase in their numbers. Not only were Negroes and Mulattoes denied the vote and the privilege of serving in the militia, they were also prevented by law from testifying in court in a case in which a white man was a On the subject of marriage between members of the white and colored races Indiana's legislators enacted more *Emma Lou "hombrou h is an associate professor of history at Butler University, Indianapais, Indiana.
