A collection of pamphlets, booklets, manus- cripts, magazine and newspaper articles, mostly from the collection of Charles W. Moores (1862-1923) Charles W. Moores, lawyer, one-time President of the Board of School Commissioners in Indianapolis, life- long Lincoln scholar and collector: he began his study of Lincoln at a time when many of Lincoln's friends and foes, neighbors and associates were still alive. Moores pub- lished several works about Lincoln, most notably an address read first before the meeting of the American Bar Association in Chattanooga, Tennessee, on September 1, 1910. This address was subsequently pub- lished in the American Law Review and also as a separate printing. Our collection contains not only the printed text as well as the author's profusely annotated typescript of The Career of a_ Country Lawyer ; Abraham Lincoln, but also Moores' ensuing correspondence with other Lincoln scholars and collectors, and other manuscript material. Butler University acquired Moores' collection of Lincolniana in 1925. Many of the books are housed in the Irwin Library's open stacks. The rare books, those that are limited in copies printed, inscribed by their authors; early works, and all pamphlets, newspapers, manuscripts, and paraphernalia are housed in the Hugh Thomas Miller Rare Book Room. We are especially proud of an early Lincoln manuscript, a note written and signed by Lincoln in the suit of Pearson and Anderson versus Bird Monroe, filed in the Circuit Court of Coles Co., Illinois, May 24, 1842. Lincoln represented the defendant. This catalogue of Lincolniana lists only the pamphlet collection, not the larger books, the Lincoln manuscript, or our collection of April 1865 newspapers. The pamphlet collection is of special importance. Subjects range from eyewitness accounts of the Republican Convention of 1860 to ser- mons and eulogies of 1865; from arguments about the suspension of the Writ of Habeas Corpus during Civil War times to foreign policy matters; from gossip to statesmanship. Lincoln's major speeches, state papers, contemporary campaign literature, accounts of assassination and trial. Civil War episodes, unionist and secessionist arguments and propaganda, a bit of everything is here, and many of the pieces that Moores collected, are not found in larger, better-known Lincoln collections elsewhere. Charles W. Moores was not, however, the sole contributor to this collection. More recent items came from Donald C. Durman, M.D., of Saginaw, Michigan, friend to Dr. Richard Mudd, the grandson of Dr. Samuel Mudd. Durman' s files about Lincoln statues and their sculptors remain yet to be sorted. Manuscript and photographic materials have been incorporated with the printed items, to accompany the pieces to which they refer. Unless otherwise noted, each piece is in its original binding.

Acknowledgments & Dedication Lord Acton wrote, “Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men.” In politics, academia, science, business, media and even religion, the record of history confirms Acton’s aphorism. True greatness is found in a heart of non-negotiable norms and nobility; a life that transforms the world for good. Most so- called ‘conservative’ and/or ‘Christian’ leaders today are polished but treacherous, seeking their own career advancement over real reformation.

  • Anon. 1909. Charles Darwin. Santa Cruz Sentinel, (27 February), P
    RECORD: Anon. 1909. Charles Darwin. Santa Cruz Sentinel, (27 February), p. 2. REVISION HISTORY: Transcribed by Christine Chua and edited by John van Wyhe 2.2020. RN1. [page] 2 Lincoln’s “Emancipation Proclamation” and Darwin’s “Origin of Species” are the great epoch- making literary documents of the nineteenth century. It is certainly a most remarkable coincidence that the two authors were born on the same day and the same year, and that the two documents appeared only a few years apart, the one in 1859 and the other in 1863. The one pre-eminently emphasizes the brotherhood of man; the other the common brotherhood of man and beast. Both documents aroused intense feelings of bitterness and malice, and both came forth triumphantly from the hotly contested battlefield. To the one we owe our common civil liberty; to the other our national view of the universe and its great Creator. Abraham Lincoln has become the saint of his nation, the greatest of modern Americans. Charles Darwin lies buried in Westminster Abbey, the greatest of modern Englishmen. Both are greater than their respective nations. They are citizens “par excellence” in the vast empire of the human race. Darwin’s theory of evolution as laid down in his immortal book, “On the Origin of Species, by Means of Natural Selection or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle of Life,” sets forth the following two theses: 1. – All higher animals and plants are descended from a few very simple primitive forms whose offspring acquired in the course of numberless generations, an increasingly higher organization, thus establishing a sort of blood relationship among all organic beings.

After Andersonville: Survivors, Memory and the Bloody Shirt Abstract This article details the experiences of survivors of the Andersonville prison camp after the Civil War. Feeling marginalized by the public after returning to the North, prisoners of war worked to demonstrate that their experiences were exceptional enough to merit the same kind of respect and adoration given to other war veterans. In particular survivors utilized the strategy of "waving the bloody shirt," describing purported Confederate atrocities at the camp to a Northern audience looking for figures to blame for the horrors of war. Through prison narratives, veteran organizations, the erection of memorials, and reunions years later, Andersonville survivors worked to establish
