Durrill Abstract Rehearsal for Redemption: The Politics of Post-Emancipation Violence in Kentucky’s Bluegrass Region By James Michael Rhyne In the late antebellum period, changing economic and social realities fostered conflicts among Kentuckians as tension built over a number of issues, especially the future of slavery. Local clashes matured into widespread, violent confrontations during the Civil War, as an ugly guerrilla war raged through much of the state. Additionally, African Americans engaged in a wartime contest over the meaning of freedom. Nowhere were these interconnected conflicts more clearly evidenced than in the Bluegrass Region. Though Kentucky had never seceded, the Freedmen’s Bureau established a branch in the Commonwealth after the war. -

Most commonly, he appears as follows. The infantryman stands with one foot forward, the butt of the rifle (rifled musket) between his feet, hands grasping the muzzle, left over right, accoutrements and bayonet suspended from his waist belt, and the coat’s hood falling over the shoulders as a cape. He wears facial hair and the uniform hat which was known as the kepi when worn by an officer, sometimes as a “bummer” when worn by an enlisted man. The kepi was indeed generally worn; it is an authentic and realistic feature; slouch hats were popular in the Western theater. The soldier enerally is of stone, usually granite, but sometimes bronze. P There is something special about such an object, as it provides a tangible link to the past. Thousands of local townsmen who long ago formed the state’s volunteer regiments, who engaged the Rebel army in legendary battles like Antietam, Gettysburg, and Cold Harbor, who perished in Andersonville prison, and who returned but never forgot, are encapsulated into this communal form. -

A key underpinning for the necessity of the legislation was provided by the opinions of two Supreme Court justices. Yet, for the past nine years, Congress has gone silent on the same topic. This Article argues that it is past time for Congress to reconsider this topic, and that if it will not do so, the Supreme Court can rectify the situation without engaging in judicial legislation. -

Sir : — la compliance with the requirements of chapter 458 of the Acts of the year 1894, the Board of Registration in Medicine submits its annual report for the year ending Dec. 31, 1896. The number of applications received during the year is 508; the number of applicants registered is 452; rejected, 56 ; making a per centum of 89 registered and 11 rejected. The regular meetings of the Board as required by law are held on the second Tuesday in March, July and November. No dates, other than the regular meetings, are especially assigned for the examination of applicants. During the past year three special meetings have been held. Except in certain cases owing to physical inability to ■write, or for some other substantial reason, the examinations are conducted wholly in writing. It is the intention of the Board to make its examinations as practical as possible, free from technicalities and catch-questions, the object being to “ test the qualifications of the candidate as a practitioner of medicine.” The questions given to the different members in a class are the same; the answers are marked on a scale of 1 to 10, and the rating is obtained by making an average of the footings in the different subjects. -
