Although we have been in our present quarters for only four years, we have added yet another office this year. In addition to our offices for the magazine, the sales room and the library with its reading room, we have acquired another of­ fice for the administration of our business. We have bought two computers and are learning how to make them work for us. Our library has increased by about 225 books, and our sales room seems to pulsate with reprints coming in and mail bags going out. One of our major acquisitions has yet to materialize, but the wheels are in motion, and we are eagerly awaiting six boxes of books from the library of Mr. John Codding­ ton, who was our guest in October. This will greatly expand our New England collec­ tion. The item on disappearing family cemeteries, which appeared in this column in our Summer issue, has generated response from several people. The latest is a letter from Deloris Wynne-Riley of San Antonio. Her great-great-grandparents are buried in a family plot on what was the old Wynne farm near the Naval Air Base at Millington, Shelby Co., TN. A 1971 photograph shows the broken stones in disarray, but a search last year failed to reveal even the fragments. Buried there are: Peter Davis Wynne, died 11 May 1859 aged 68 years; Mary Ann Jones Persons Wynne, his wife, born 4 Nov 1800 - died 12 Nov 1848; Mary A.J. Wynne, 1st wife of John W. Bond. Mrs. Wynne­ Riley has records of the Wynne, Persons, Davis and Terrell lines, which she is will­ ing to share. Interested persons may write to her at 103 Hunters Branch South, San Antonio, TX 78231. Another interesting letter came from John T. Hunley, Destinations Unlimited, 7240 Crowder Blvd. #100, New Orleans, LA 70127-1910. He says that on 17 Feb 1864 the CSS H.L. Hunley sank the Union frigate, USS Housatonic, off the coast of Charleston, SC. That event made the Hunley the world's first successful submarine. Because the sub­ marine was built in Mobile, AL, there will be a celebration in that city at the Admiral Semmes Hotel on 17 Feb 1989. Anyone with an interest in the Hunley/Hundley name is invited to attend and bring whatever information he/she may have to share. For further information you may write Mr. Hunley at the above address or call him at this number •.. (504) 241-7997. This is the time of the year to think of calendars, and although we will be well in­ to the new year by the time you receive this issue, perhaps this next item will be helpful still. It is a Genealogical Notebook Calendar for 1989. The format is in book form, 8~xll and plastic spiral-bound, printed on ecru heavy stock paper. The right-hand pages carry the calendar, leaving room for notes to be added by you. The left-hand pages hold general information on genealogy, thereby becoming a quick and handy reference tool for all researchers. Some of the information topics are: Information Available in Census Records (title of each column heading for 1790-1910); Sources for Genealogical Research (an extensive check-list); Genealogy Terminology; U.S. Vital Records for Each State (addresses of every office and price for copies) and the Dewey Decimal System Numbers for Countries, Regions, and States. The price is $7.00, and the calendar may be ordered from Old Time Publications, N. 3420 Don­ wood, Spokane, WA 99216-1707 (WA residents add 7.8% sales tax, please). Thanks to Clarence W. Spence, this issue contains our newly computerized index. He has spent countless hours mastering the beast, and promises that it will not be so time-consuming in the future. Thank you for your patience with modern progress. Winter 1988 147 ONTO THEIR SWORDS - The Army of Tennessee at Franklin by Kevin Duke, Company C, 7th Tennessee Cavalry, Re-enactment Unit On the last day of November 1864, while Grant's army lay siege to Richmond and Peters­ burg, and Sherman's army burned its way through Georgia, one of the Civil War's bloodiest battles broke out in the small Tennessee town of Franklin. Why? In July of that year, John Bell Hood replaced Joe Johnston as commander of the Con­ federate Army of Tennessee. His bloody frontal assaults failed to save Atlanta, as did his subsequent maneuvers to lure Sherman north, in order to retake the city. Groping for a way to "turn the War around," Hood renewed the old Confederate dream of invading the North. While Sherman would "march to the sea," Hood intended to march to the Ohio River. Sherman let him go, believing he had left enough troops behind to deal with the rem­ nants of Hood's army. However, the Union forces were much dispersed, spread out to cover Sherman's supply lines during the Atlanta campaign. Hood moved quickly, and gobbled up several small garrisons. It appeared that he might defeat such garrisons all the way into Nashville, if he continued to move quickly. Unfortunately, Hood paused two weeks, awaiting supplies and crossing the Tennessee River. The delay al­ lowed Union forces to concentrate two strong corps under Gen. John Schofield at the Duck River crossings in Columbia, Tennessee. On November 29, Hood launched a bold plan that almost worked. Leaving his artillery and one of his three corps to hold Schofield's attention at Columbia, Hood threw his other two corps, well vanguarded by the cavalry of Nathan Bedford Forrest, around Schofield's flank.

  • Medical Appropriation in the 'Red' Atlantic: Translating a Mi'kmaq
    1 Medical Appropriation in the ‘Red’ Atlantic: Translating a Mi’kmaq smallpox cure in the mid-nineteenth century Farrah Lawrence-Mackey University College London Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History and Philosophy of Science Department of Science and Technology Studies 2018 2 I, Farrah Mary Lawrence-Mackey confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 3 ABSTRACT This thesis answers the questions of what was travelling, how, and why, when a Kanien’kehaka woman living amongst the Mi’kmaq at Shubenacadie sold a remedy for smallpox to British and Haligonian colonisers in 1861. I trace the movement of the plant (known as: Mqo’oqewi’k, Indian Remedy, Sarracenia purpurea, and Limonio congener) and knowledges of its use from Britain back across the Atlantic. In exploring how this remedy travelled, why at this time and what contexts were included with the plant’s removal I show that rising scientific racism in the nineteenth century did not mean that Indigenous medical flora and knowledge were dismissed wholesale, as scholars like Londa Schiebinger have suggested. Instead conceptions of indigeneity were fluid, often lending authority to appropriated flora and knowledge while the contexts of nineteenth-century Britain, Halifax and Shubenacadie created the Sarracenia purpurea, Indian Remedy and Mqo’oqewi’k as it moved through and between these spaces. Traditional accounts of bio-prospecting argue that as Indigenous flora moved, Indigenous contexts were consistently stripped away. This process of stripping shapes Indigenous origins as essentialised and static.

  • 'Grey's Anatomy' Star Talks About Black Representation in Media As Well As His Provocative Acceptance Speech at the 2016 BET Awards
    Philip Martin Gallery At the opening of photographer Kwame Brathwaite's new show "Celebrity and the Everyday," the 'Grey's Anatomy' star talks about black representation in media as well as his provocative acceptance speech at the 2016 BET Awards Fans of Grey’s Anatomy grew concerned last month when the dashing Dr. Jackson Avery, played by Jesse Williams, vanished from the popular TV show for a few weeks, fueling speculation until his recent return. "I was off shooting a movie called Random Acts of Violence, and I'm back. Crisis of conscience, lost his child, lost his ex-wife, lost a patient, so ventured out into the woods and find himself, which I think men need to do more often.
