Please make plans to attend the next meeting of the CFCWRT’s continuing 2014-2015 Program Year. Visitors are always welcome – this year, BRING a friend to join you. Each of our speakers strives to enlighten, entertain, and add to our knowledge of Civil War history. This serves our mission of encouraging education and research into this seminal event in our nation’s past. ***** November Program ***** Could the South Have Won? Dr. Melton McLaurin will present his analysis of the possibilities of the South winning its independence during the American Civil War 1861-1865.

Fayetteville native Melton Alonza McLaurin received his Ph.D. in American history from the University of South Carolina in 1967 and taught at the University of South Alabama prior to joining the UNCW department of history as chairperson in 1977. From 1996 until 2003 he served as Associate Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs, retiring in 2004. He authored or co-authored nine books (Celia, A Slave; The Marines of Montford Point: America’s First Black Marines) and numerous articles on various aspects of the history of the American South Melton McLaurin and race relations.

  • “It Would Just Kill Me to Marry Mary Todd”: Courtship and Marriage
    Chapter Six “It Would Just Kill Me to Marry Mary Todd”: Courtship and Marriage (1840-1842) In 1842, Lincoln married Mary Todd, a woman who was to make his domestic life “a burning, scorching hell,” as “terrible as death and as gloomy as the grave,” according to one who knew him well.1 COURTING MARY OWENS Lincoln’s courtship of Mary Todd is poorly documented, but indirect light on it is shed by his earlier, well-documented romance with Mary S. Owens. Born in Kentucky a few months before Lincoln, Mary Owens received a good education at the home of her wealthy father, a planter in Green County.2 She “was very different from Anne Rutledge.” Not only was she older, bigger, better-educated, and raised “in the most refined society,” she also “dressed much finer than any of the ladies who lived about New 1 William H. Herndon, quoted in Michael Burlingame, The Inner World of Abraham Lincoln (Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 1994), 268. 2 Nathaniel Owens, out “of his deep concern for the education of his children . maintained a private school in his pretentious plantation home, to which came instructors from Transylvania University, Ky., to give instruction to his children and those of his neighbors.” On his 5000-acre plantation he grew cotton and tobacco, which he farmed with the help of two dozen slaves. Notes on Nathaniel Owens, Fern Nance Pond Papers, Menard County Historical Museum, Petersburg, Illinois. According to William B. Allen, Owens “was a farmer of good education for the times, and of a high order of native intellect.

  • Hodes-Mourning Lincoln-Copy
    Good Friday, 1865 the play had already started when the Lincolns arrived. As the honored guests made their way up the stairway to the dress circle, the actors stopped and the audience cheered. As the band struck up “Hail to the Chief,” the president took an impromptu bow. It was Good Friday, April , . The Washington Evening Star had carried a front-page advertisement for Laura Keene’s appearance at Ford’s Theatre in the lighthearted com- edy Our American Cousin, and an announcement inside indicated that the president and Mrs. Lincoln would be attending that night. The Lincolns had extended an invitation to General Ulysses S. Grant and his wife, Julia, and when they declined, to Assistant Secretary of War Thomas Eckert, who declined as well. Next down the list were Clara Harris and Major Henry Rathbone, who happily accepted. She was the daughter of a New York senator, and he, Clara’s stepbrother and fiancé. It was an evening that would ruin their lives. The presidential box, personally decorated by one of the Ford brothers for the occasion, hovered above stage left. Lincoln lowered himself into the walnut rocking chair, with Mary seated to his right. At perhaps a quarter past ten, the audience roared with laughter as the actor Harry Hawk, in the role of the backwoods American cousin of British relatives, uttered the 1 YALE hodes.indd 1 10/14/14 1:36 PM 2 good friday, 1865 John Wilkes Booth fires into the back of Lincoln’s head.

We call these men Founding Fathers. George Washington was probably the tallest, at six feet tall. Imagine a guy that big riding on a horse! Must have been a big horse. George fought in the French and Indian Wars in loads of battles and was even a captive of the French for a time. That’s brave! I don’t mind a small war with the dog down the street, but not the kind of war George was in! He kept a diary, and it was published, making him pretty famous in the colonies. War is never pretty but sometimes it becomes necessary. If I go to war again, no sword or other weapon can match these claws. But George had to fight without enough weapons! I guess he and his men wanted independence and were willing to fight and die for it. Luckily, we enjoy that independence today.
