Nevertheless, there is still room for a brief voltime upon the subject; all the world knows that the Revolution really began almost fifteen 5^ars before its beginning, because of the efforts of'Hhe British government to give greater unity and stiff- ness to its colonial system, both as to government and as to trade with other nations; but the real motives underlying the uneasiness of the colonies still need enlightenment. In the arrangement of The American Nation, both Greene's Provincial America (vol. VI.) and Thwaites's France in America (vol. VII.) are in- troductory to this volume: the one showing the organization of government against which they complained, and the other the danger from the French, the removal of which opened the way for revolution; the volume is also most closely linked with Van Tyne's American Revolution (vol. IX.). Professor Howard opens with two chapters on the conditions and political standards of the Americans on their side of the ocean, and of the . xiv EDITOR'S INTRODUCTION British on their side; then follows (chap, iii.) an account of the system of Navigation Acts as it then existed, which may well be compared with chapters i. and xix. of Andrews's Colonial Self- Government, and chapters iii. and xviii. of Greene's Provincial America. The two preliminary episodes of the Parson's Cause and Writs of Assistance (chaps, iv. and v.) are followed by a discussion of the Sugar Act of 1766, which Professor Howard considers the starting-point of the Revolution. In three chapters (vii., viii., ix.) the Stamp Act, Stamp Act Congress, and repeal are considered; in two more chapters the Townshend Acts and the attempts to enforce them by the military are described. The narrative then gives way to an indispensable discussion of the Anglican Episcopate, which fits into Greene's discussion of the same subject in an earlier volimie {Provincial America, chap, vi.)- The first appearance of the West as a distinct factor in national life is described in chapter xiii. and will be resumed in Van Tyne's American Revolution (chap. XV.) ; and, in a later stage, in McLaughlin's Confederation and Constitution (vol. X., chaps, vii., viii.). The final steps leading up to revolution, from 1773 to 1775, occupy chapters xiv. to xvii. The last chapter of text is the argument of the loyalists, a strong presentation of the reasons which led so many thousand Americans to adhere to the mother- country. It should be compared with Van Tyne's 2 EDITOR'S INTRODUCTION xv American Revolution (chap. xiv.). The Critical Essay on Authorities is conveniently classified by subjects .which do not follow strictly the order of the chapters. The aim of the voliime is to show what the issue really was and why people who had lived under one general government for a century and a half could no longer get on together. Professor Howard's investigations bring him to about the same point as those of earlier writers—viz., that war was inevitable because of long antecedent causes tending to inde- pendence, and was precipitated by the failure of the home government to understand either the sit- uation or the American people ; but that it was not a result of direct and conscious oppression. Yet this fresh study of the evidence results in a clearer view of the difficulties of the imperial problem; and brings out in sharper relief the reasons for the apparent paradox that the freest people then on earth insisted on and deserved a larger freedom.

    JAMES KENDALL HOSMER HDT WHAT? INDEX JAMES KENDALL HOSMER REV. PROF. JAMES K. HOSMER 1635 In Concord, Samuel Swan rented the Wright Tavern to two bakers, Thomas Safford and Deacon Francis Jarvis. According to the Deacon’s son Dr. Edward Jarvis’s TRADITIONS AND REMINISCENCES OF CONCORD, MASSACHUSETTS 1779-1878 (as edited by Sarah Chapin and published in 1993 by the U of Massachusetts P): In 1790 my father [Deacon Francis Jarvis] with Thomas Safford took the bake house which was in the building that was the Wright Tavern in the Revolutionary War, opposite the Middlesex House, adjoining the tavern. Soon Mr. Safford went to Lancaster, and my father carried on the business until 1824 and lived in the house until 1832. He then bought and removed to the farm, lately the property of Col. John Buttrick, and lived there until he died in 1840. The farm was occupied by my brother the late Capt. Francis Jarvis until his death in 1875. Since then it has been owned and occupied by his children, Joseph Derby and wife, and Cyrus H. Jarvis. From the early years of his residence in the town my father owned and cultivated lands sufficient for a small farm in the center of Concord until he went to the Buttrick farm. My mother was Millicent Hosmer, daughter of James H[osmer], granddaughter of Stephen and great-granddaughter of Stephen, who were the descendants of James [Hosmer], one of the first settlers in Concord in 1635. HDT WHAT? INDEX JAMES KENDALL HOSMER REV. PROF. JAMES K. HOSMER 1834 January 29, Wednesday: James Kendall Hosmer was born in Northfield, Massachusetts, a son of the Reverend George Washington Hosmer of Concord.

Winthrop makes no division into chapters. In this edition the text has, for the reader's convenience, been broken by headings repre- senting the years. These, however, in accordance with modern usage, have been set at the beginning of January, not at the date with which Winthrop began his year, the first of March.

    THE PEOPLE OF CONCORD:HORACE RICE HOSMER HORACE RICE HOSMER Horace Rice Hosmer, store clerk, inventor, pencil maker and salesman, painter, handyman, farmer, son of Joseph Hosmer (1735- 1821) and brother of Joseph Hosmer, Jr., the abolitionist, a schoolmate of the Thoreau brothers, whose farm a mile and a half north of Concord was used in the Underground Railroad. Young Horace himself attended the Concord Academy, where he was tutored by John Thoreau, Jr. HDT WHAT? INDEX THE PEOPLE OF CONCORD: HORACE RICE HOSMER 1635 According to a still-extant fragment from the earliest Concord records, it was “Ordered that the meeting-house stande on the hill near the brook on the easte of Goodman Judgson’s lott.” Public Buildings — Meeting-houses. — To provide suitable accommodations for public religious worship, was one of the first acts of the town after its incorporation. And hence we find it recorded in a fragment of the proceedings of the town in 1635 — “Ordered that the meeting-house stande on the hill near the brook on the easte of Goodman Judgson’s lott.” Tradition informs us, that this was on the hill some distance easterly from the common. This house served as a place of worship about 30 years. ... A town bell was procured very early, but at what time does not appear. At first it was hung on a tree, and its tones are said to have been terrible to the neighboring Indians. About 1696 it was broken, and sent to England to be recast. In 1700 it was “hanged on the meeting-house in the turret,” where it remained till the court-house was built, on which it was placed til 1791, when it was removed to the meeting- house.

Aubut, “Sheldon Aubut’s Minneapolis History,” http://www.cityhistory.us/minneapolis/misc3.htm Sarah Biro History 399: Senior Thesis May 4, 2009 Acknowledgements I would like to especially thank and acknowledge Martha Tomhave Bleauvelt, my professor and sponsor, for her guidance, assistance, and encouragement along the way. To my classmates in History 399, particularly Elyse Rethlake, Abby Regis, and Joanna Stelzner, thank you for your encouragement and advice. To the librarians in the James K. Hosmer Special Collections at the Minneapolis Public Library, thank you for assisting me in my primary research by pulling relevant materials, as well as giving advice. In addition, thank you to the Interlibrary Loan staff at Clemens Library for processing my countless book and copy requests. Finally, I would like to especially thank my family for their support and love. It is their influence that led me to my love of public libraries, the inspiration for this project. While grateful for the assistance of these individuals, I alone am responsible for any errors in my work. Thank you. “How to reach the busy men and women, how to carry wholesome and enjoyable books to the far-away corners of the city, how to enlist the interest of tired factory girls, how to put the working-man in touch with the art books relating to his craft and so increase the value of his labor and the dignity of his day’s work--these are some of the things which I conceive to be my duty to study, if I would help this public library to become what it is for.”1—Gratia Alta Countryman Think back to your high school United States History class.
