COVER DESCRIPTION: "Different kinds of moonlight change the shape of the river." Steamboat pilots had to know the shape of the river better than the shape of their front hall at home. Thomas Hart Benton provided this 7"x4i/2" gouache painting for Mark Twain's Life on the Mississippi. An article regarding Benton's illustrations for three of Mark Twain's classics appears in this issue of the REVIEW. Many works by Benton will be exhibited, beginning August 1, in the State Historical Society Art Gallery, open Monday through Friday from 8:30 A.M. to 4:00 P.M., excepting legal holidays.

For more than seventy years thousands of Missourians who have be­ longed to the Society have been responsible primarily for building its great research collections and libraries. They have given it the support which makes it the largest organization of its type in the United States. The quest for interested new members goes on continually, and your help is solicited in obtaining them. In every family, and in every community, there are individuals who are sincerely interested in the collection, preservation and dissemination of the his­ tory of Missouri. Why not nominate these people for membership? Annual dues are only $2.00, Life Memberships $40.00. Richard S. Brownlee Director and Secretary State Historical Society of Missouri 1020 Lowry Street Columbia, Missouri 65201 in AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE The editorial staff of the MISSOURI HISTORICAL REVIEW asks that members of the State Historical So­ ciety of Missouri, who are moving or have moved to a new location, please inform the Society of changes of address, as soon as possible. To remail a returned issue of the REVIEW under new postal rates is very expensive. In addition to elim­ inating this costly procedure, the immediate notifica­ tion of a change of address will enable the member to receive the REVIEW at an earlier date. Changes of address should be sent to: State Historical Society of Missouri 1020 Lowry Street Columbia, Missouri 65201 IV SOCIETY TO PRESENT AWARDS At the Annual Meeting in October the Society will confer three awards. An engraved citation and a me­ dallion will be awarded to a member who has given distinguished service to the Society and to the State of Missouri in the promotion and dissemination of knowl­ edge concerning the history of our region. A second engraved citation and a one-hundred-dollar cash award will be given for the REVIEW article during the calendar year which has contributed most in depth in a scholarly and popular sense to the history of our State. The two-hundred-fifty-dollar Floyd C. Shoe­ maker History Award will be presented to a junior class student in a Missouri college or university who has written the best historical article that relates to Missouri events or personalities. The distinguished member will be selected by a three-member committee appointed by the Society president. One member of the selection committee will serve for two years and two members for one year. No active officers or trustees of the Society, with the ex­ ception of past presidents, may be nominated for the Distinguished Service Award. Nominations should be made in writing to Richard S. Brownlee, director of the Society, any time during the calendar year. The prize-winning article will be selected by three his­ torians appointed by the editor of the REVIEW. The selection committee will be changed each year with the exception of one member who will be replaced after two years. Articles submitted for the Floyd C. Shoemaker History Award will be judged by the De­ partment of History of the University of Missouri- Columbia.

Along with selected works by George Caleb Bingham, which are on permanent display, the Art Gallery will feature a number of watercolors, temperas, and pen, brush, and ink drawings executed by Thomas Hart Benton for the Mark Twain classics, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Life on the Mississippi. These Twain volumes were published by The Limited Edition Club of New York City in 1939, 1942 and 1944, respec­ tively. Besides the works included in this exhibit, which are taken from the 203 items given to the State Historical Society by the Neosho-born artist, Benton donated the paintings Negro Soldier and Embarkation (Prelude to Death). Other Benton paint­ ings owned by the State Historical Society are his "Year of Perir series, a gift of Abbott Laboratories. Born on April 15, 1889, Benton spent his early life in South­ west Missouri and Washington, D. C, where his father was a 385 member of the United States Congress. While the family resided in the Washington, D. C. area, Tom Benton studied at the Cor­ coran Gallery of Art. His official artistic career began in 1906 when he worked as a cartoonist for the Joplin American. In 1907 he studied at the Art Institute of Chicago. The next year Benton traveled to Paris where he lived through 1911. While there he studied at the Academie Julian and the Academie Collarossi. Dur­ ing World War I, Benton served as a naval draftsman and at that time forsook the abstract theories of art he had studied and turned to depicting, in realistic terms, the American scene. His marriage to a former student, Rita Piacenza, provided the atmosphere for Benton to embark upon a successful artistic career. He is con­ sidered Missouri's most important twentieth-century artist and America's foremost muralist during his lifetime. Missourians have an opportunity to view four of Benton's most important murals at the Harry S. Truman Library, Independence; Harzfeld's, Kansas City; the Municipal Building, Joplin; and the House of Repre­ sentatives Lounge in the State Capitol, Jefferson City.

NEW DIRECTIONS OF PLAY: NATIVE AMERICAN ORIGINS OF MODERN LACROSSE A Thesis Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for the Degree Master of Arts History by Jeff Carey August 2012 Accepted by: Dr. Paul Anderson, Committee Chair Dr. James Jeffries Dr. Alan Grubb ABSTRACT The purpose of this thesis is to provide a history of lacrosse from the seventeenth century, when the game was played exclusively by Native Americans, to the early decades of the twentieth century, when the game began to flourish in non-Native settings in Canada and the United States. While the game was first developed by Native Americans well before contact with Europeans, lacrosse became standardized by a group of Canadians led by George Beers in 1867, and has continued to develop into the twenty- first century. The thesis aims to illuminate the historical linkages between the ball game that existed among Native Americans at the time of contact with Europeans and the ball game that was eventually adopted and shaped into modern lacrosse by European Americans.

    ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ INDIGENEITY, SETTLER COLONIALISM AND HISTORICAL MEMORY IN CANADA’S LARGEST CITY By Victoria Jane Freeman A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto ©Copyright by Victoria Jane Freeman 2010 ABSTRACT ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ ABSTRACT ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ INDIGENEITY, SETTLER COLONIALISM AND HISTORICAL MEMORY IN CANADA’S LARGEST CITY Doctor of Philosophy 2010 Victoria Jane Freeman Graduate Department of History University of Toronto The Indigenous past is largely absent from settler representations of the history of the city of Toronto, Canada. Nineteenth and twentieth century historical chroniclers often downplayed the historic presence of the Mississaugas and their Indigenous predecessors by drawing on doctrines of terra nullius , ignoring the significance of the Toronto Purchase, and changing the city’s foundational story from the establishment of York in 1793 to the incorporation of the City of Toronto in 1834. These chroniclers usually assumed that “real Indians” and urban life were inimical. Often their representations implied that local Indigenous peoples had no significant history and thus the region had little or no history before the arrival of Europeans. Alternatively, narratives of ethical settler indigenization positioned the Indigenous past as the uncivilized starting point in a monological European theory of historical development. i i iii In many civic discourses, the city stood in for the nation as a symbol of its future, and national history stood in for the region’s local history. The national replaced ‘the Indigenous’ in an ideological process that peaked between the 1880s and the 1930s.

    Kolomoki Memoirs

    Kolomoki Memoirs By Williams H. Sears Edited with a Preface By Mark Williams and Karl T. Steinen University of Georgia and University of West Georgia University of Georgia Laboratory of Archaeology Series Report Number 70 2013 Preface Mark Williams and Karl T. Steinen This document was written by Bill Sears about 1988 at his home in Vero Beach, Florida. He had retired in 1982 after a career teaching anthropology and archaeology at from Florida Atlantic University. He was working on a book of his professional memoirs, intended to summarize the many archaeological sites he had worked on in Georgia and Florida from 1947 until his retirement. He wrote chapters on his 1948 excavation at the Wilbanks site (9CK5) in the Allatoona Reservoir (Sears 1958), on his 1953 excavation at the famous Etowah site (9BR1), and on his 1947-1951 excavations at the Kolomoki site (9ER1) published in four volumes (Sears 1951a, 1951b, 1953, 1956). These three sites constituted the bulk of his archaeological excavations in Georgia. Apparently he never wrote the intended chapters on his archaeological work in Florida, and the book was never completed. Following his death in December of 1996 (see Ruhl and Steinen 1997), his wife Elsie found the three chapters in a box and passed them on to one of us (Steinen). The chapters on Etowah and Wilbanks are being published separately. The document we present here is his unpublished chapter on the Kolomoki site. It provides a fascinating look at the state of archaeology in Georgia 65 years ago and is filled with pointed insights on many people.
