  • Charles Mason First New Orleanian to Play Big League Ball
    A Schott From The Bleachers Charles Mason First New Orleanian to Play Big League Ball by Arthur O. Schott Listed on the roster of major league players is one Charles E. Mason. He appeared in a total of 21 games, hitting .183, with 15 hits in 82 times at bat. His career began in the old National Association (a predecessor of the National League) on April 26, 1875, with the Centennials of Philadelphia. After twelve games there, Mason went to the Washington club in the same league for eight games. Mason’s career ended in 1883 when “base ball” was still being written as two words. He appeared in the old American Association major league. He made one hit in two times at bat (a .500 average for his short career there). Why is this seemingly insignificant performance so long ago worthy of mention? Charles Mason was born on June 25, 1853 in New Orleans, Louisiana, and died October 21, 1936 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. That fact, coupled with his short major league career, entitles him to a record that can never be equaled: he was the first New Orleans native to play in a league of major classification. The accompanying box score is that of Charles Mason’s first game, when the New Orleans native played right field for the Centennials and contributed two hits in four times at bat.

  • Untitled, Undated Fragment of Newspaper Article Describes the Cellars One Hundred Years Later
    This page intentionally left blank PREFACE This report was commissioned by the Taft Museum of Art and Reed Hilderbrand Associates, Inc, Landscape Architecture, as part of the museum's expansion and renovation program. In early 2001, as it became clear that the Taft gardens would be thoroughly renovated and rebuilt, the need emerged for a documentary history that captured the design intentions, construction and evolution of several generations of landscape development. The following narrative records that history and anticipates a new chapter in the Taft's relationship to its site. The author gratefully acknowledges the invaluable assistance of Phillip Long, David Johnson, Lea Emery, Susan Hudson and Mark Allen of the Taft Museum of Art; the staff of the Cincinnati Historical Society, in particular Linda Bailey; the staff of the Cincinnati Public Library and that of the Lloyd Horticultural Library; Beth Sullebarger of the Cincinnati Preservation Society, and Nicholas Longworth's two great-great-great granddaughters, Mary Mitchell Cushing and Rosalie Mitchell Robertson. TAFf MUSEUM OF ART 2 A LANDSCAPE HIsTORY INTRODUCTION The Taft Museum of Art houses one of America's notable private collections of art, one that distinctly reflects Anna and Charles Taft's desire to leave an outstanding and permanent contribution to cultural life in Cincinnati, Ohio. No less important is the extraordinary inheritance embodied in the site and the impressive structure in which the collection is displayed, a building considered among America's finest early nineteenth­ century homes. This study documents and interprets the valuable inheritance conveyed through the history of the Taft site and its associated designed landscape at a moment when the museum itself is undergoing significant changes to revive and extend its legacy-changes that will make its collection and its site more manageable and more accessible to a wider audience.

    WENNAWOODS PUBLISHING Quality Reprints---Rare Books---Historical Artwork Dedicated to the preservation of books and artwork relating to 17th and 18th century life on America’s Eastern Frontier SPRING & SUMMER ’99 CATALOG #8 Dear Wennawoods Publishing Customers, We hope everyone will enjoy our Spring‘99 catalog. Four new titles are introduced in this catalog. The Lenape and Their Legends, the 11th title in our Great Pennsylvania Frontier Series, is a classic on Lenape or Delaware Indian history. Originally published in 1885 by Daniel Brinton, this numbered title is limited to 1,000 copies and contains the original translation of the Walum Olum, the Lenape’s ancient migration story. Anyone who is a student of Eastern Frontier history will need to own this scarce and hard to find book. Our second release is David Zeisberger’s History of the Indians of the Northern American Indians of Ohio, New York and Pennsylvania in 18th Century America. Seldom does a book come along that contains such an outstanding collection of notes on Eastern Frontier Indian history. Zeisberger, a missionary in the wilderness among the Indians of the East for over 60 years, gives us some of the most intimate details we know today. Two new titles in our paperback Pennsylvania History and Legends Series are: TE-A-O-GA: Annals of a Valley by Elsie Murray and Journal of Samuel Maclay by John F. Meginness; two excellent short stories about two vital areas of significance in Pennsylvania Indian history. Other books released in last 6 months are 1) 30,000 Miles With John Heckewelder or Travels Among the Indians of Pennsylvania, New York, Ohio in the 18th Century, 2) Early Western Journals, 3) A Pennsylvania Bison Hunt, and 4) Luke Swetland’s Captivity.
