Watson: But I got hung up in a different way. Just as I was getting in my car, my trousers got caught on a piece of broken metal at the back of the car. Professor Sadler ran into it yesterday – and ripped my trouser leg right down so I had to rush back and change my pants. Hopkins: I'm sorry for the cause, but I'm kind of glad you were delayed. This was an interesting telephone conversation. It was with a fellow named Gordon who is the head of the company that made the silver bowl and he just wanted some assurance it was all right and so forth. He's a very, very attractive fellow, but I have just barely met him though. I donʼt know him well at all. Childs: It looked like a beautiful bowl. I trust it's as beautiful as it looked there. Is it? It's a perfect reproduction, isnʼt it? Hopkins: Just a perfect reproduction. It is very beautiful, very beautiful. Childs: I told you ahead of time I wasn't going to get to your dinner. But I did. I was so glad… so thrilled by it. It was wonderful.

Eastman and his wife, Elaine Goodale Eastman, right, left the Lakota reservation in South Dakota and relocated to St. Paul in 1893, they chose a place where Charles had deep ancestral roots as can be seen in this excerpt from Joseph Nicollet’s 1843 map of the Hydrographic Basin of the Upper Mississippi. Nicollet labelled the area where the Mississippi River meets the Minnesota River MDEWAKANTON COUNTRY. It is also known to Dakota as Bdote, the place “where two waters come together.” Barely discernible on the map are the locations of Fort Snelling, St. Anthony Falls, the lakes of Minneapolis, and Carver’s Cave, sites that today are in Minneapolis and St. Paul.

  • Medway in 1713 Included the Land We Presently Know As Millis and Medway
    COMMUNITY CHURCH HISTORY The incorporation of Medway in 1713 included the land we presently know as Millis and Medway. The two sections are often re- ferred to as the East Precinct (Millis), and the West Precinct (Medway). The Black Swamp, a massive area of dense forests and swamps, was the geographical center between both precincts. The First Church of Christ in Medway was established in the more populous area east of the Black Swamp. In colonial days, attendance at church services was an obligation. Services were lengthy, involving both morning and afternoon sessions, with a short intermission to eat, warm up if it was cold, and socialize in the adja- cent “noon houses.” Weather was always an issue, but winter was especially difficult due to the cold and lack of heat in the meet- ing house. As the population of Medway grew, settlers began building in the West Precinct. Increasingly, as early as 1731, they began to ex- plore alternatives to attending church services and town meetings at such a distance. The Black Swamp was a major obstacle to these settlers and their families, who travelled by foot, wagon, or horseback to attend services in the east. It was difficult, inconve- nient, and nearly impossible to travel several miles from home, over rutted pathways, across the often flooded swampy area, to -ar rive at the meeting house in time to hear the bell ringing, calling all to worship. Several proposals were made to make it easier for the West Precinct settlers to attend worship services. After failing to find a work- able solution, the settlers petitioned the General Court in 1748 for permission to separate from the East Precinct and to build their own meeting house.

  • The Transformation of Kate Sanborn (1838−1917) ― Humor As a Prescription to Face a Vanishing America
    The Transformation of Kate Sanborn (1838−1917) ― Humor as a Prescription to Face a Vanishing America Keiko N. Sugiyama Introduction Around 1911, toward the end of her career, Kate Sanborn published the book entitled Hunting Indians in a Taxi−Cab(1). The book was an ef- fort by Sanborn to preserve images of vanishing Native Americans through photographs of the wooden statues of Native Americans com- monly found in front of tobacco shops. I must note that the statues were not made by Native Americans. To be precise, Sanborn wanted to pre- serve statues that portrayed Native Americans in the western images held by white Americans. Sanborn wrote nostalgically and with well−in- tentioned commentary expressing support for the Native Americans . She was critical of a proposal to erect an enormous statue of a Native American on Staten Island overlooking Manhattan Bay, proposed by the Wanamaker Department Store. What a sarcasm of Destiny it is that when we have driven out and killed off all the Indians who were so happy here, we write poetry praising them, novels about the good looking, brave, and almost too saintly Red Man. And now it is seriously urged that a suitable Me- morial be erected in New York Harbor to the Memory of the North -65- American Indian whose ranks are thinning so rapidly that within a comparatively few years more, the race will be obliterated by the advance of the white man’s civilization. That was rather a rosy way of describing the treatment the Indian has received.(2) Her way of paying homage, instead, was to “rescue these statues from oblivion,” in her words,(3) and to place them where she thought they belonged: on her farm beside a constructed fake teepee.

However, in terms of "discoverability" (to use the current term), it is not enough to represent each of the 600-plus titles in the online catalog. We hope that our students, faculty, and other researchers will appreciate this series of annotated guides to our LITERATURE periodicals, broken down into basic themes (politics, music, science and medicine, children, education, women, etc.), Introduction and listed in chronological order by date ofthe title's Constituting one of the largest parts of our American first issue.
