    Silenced by a Pistol John Hampden Pleasants, Slavery and the Disappearance of Dissent in Virginia

    Silenced by a Pistol John Hampden Pleasants, Slavery and the Disappearance of Dissent in Virginia Suzanne Cooper Guasco, Ph.D. Queens University of Charlotte 7-17-2015 Cooper Guasco 1 On the wet and dreary morning of Wednesday, February 25, 1846 John Hampden Pleasants, the former editor of the Richmond Whig, and Thomas Ritchie, Jr., the co-editor of the Richmond Enquirer, met on the canal tow path in Manchester City, just across the James River from Richmond. Armed with pistols, swords and bowie knives, both men faced one another squarely, separated by a few hundred feet while their seconds attempted to negotiate an amicable resolution to the conflict. When they failed, Pleasants initiated the duel by calmly walking directly toward Ritchie. Initially, both men refrained from discharging their weapons, but once Pleasants was within range, Ritchie opened fire “throwing down his pistols as fast as he fired.” Certainly several of his shots hit their mark, but Pleasants marched forward “without falling in the least,” refusing to fire “his first pistol” until he was within ten feet of his opponent. Pleasants then closed in on Ritchie, “struck him with his pistol in the mouth” and lunged forward with his sword cane, intent on running him through. “Ritchie, in the meantime, was constantly firing, until at last he drew his sword” and the men “were parted.” Pleasants then fell to the ground, struck by six bullets and wounded in the hand, arm, chest and leg. Thomas Dean and Jefferson Archer placed the mortally wounded Pleasants in a carriage and transported him back to his room in the city.

So it has been at the College of William and Mary, often in curious ways. For example, those delving into its history long overlooked the College’s eighteenth century plantation worked by slaves for ninety years to raise tobacco.1 Although it seems easy to understand that omission, it is harder to understand why the College’s 1760 affiliation with a school for black children2 was overlooked, or its president in 1807 being half-sympathetic to a black man seeking to sit in on science lectures,3 or its awarding an honorary degree to the famous English abolitionist Granville Sharp in 1791,4 all indications of forgotten anti-slavery thought at the College. To account for these memory lapses, we must look to a pivotal time in the late- nineteenth and early-twentieth century when the College, Williamsburg, and Virginia * Chancellor Professor of English, College of William and Mary, Williamsburg, Virginia, [email protected].
