  • United States V. Hodges: Treason, Jury Trials, and the War of 1812
    FOREWORD: Title United States v. Hodges: Treason, Jury Trials, and the War of 1812 Author Jennifer Elisa Smith Document Type Article Publication Date 2016 Keywords Legal history, treason, jury, Justice Gabriel Duvall, War of 1812 Abstract In August 1814 a number of British soldiers were arrested as stragglers or deserters in the town of Upper Marlboro, Maryland. Upon learning of the soldiers’ absences the British military took local physician, Dr. William Beanes, and two other residents into custody and threatened to burn Upper Marlboro if the British soldiers were not returned. John Hodges, a local attorney, arranged the soldiers’ return to the British military. For this, Hodges was charged with high treason for “adhering to [the] enemies, giving them aid and comfort.” The resulting jury trial was presided over by Justice Gabriel Duvall, a Supreme Court Justice and Prince Georges County native, and highlights how the crime of treason was viewed in early American culture and the role of the jury as deciders of the facts and the law in early American jurisprudence. Contextually, Hodges’ trial took place against the backdrop of the War of 1812 and was informed by the 1807 treason trial of Aaron Burr. Disciplines Law, constitutional history, legal history 1 UNITED STATES V.

    NOTES ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE LINGUISTIC SOCIETY OF AMERICA 1924 TO 1950 MARTIN JOOS for JENNIE MAE JOOS FORE\\ORO It is important for the reader of this document to know how it came to be written and what function it is intended to serve. In the early 1970s, when the Executive Committee and the Committee on Pub1ications of the linguistic Society of America v.ere planning for the observance of its Golden Anniversary, they decided to sponsor the preparation of a history of the Society's first fifty years, to be published as part of the celebration. The task was entrusted to the three living Secretaries, J M. Cowan{who had served from 1940 to 1950), Archibald A. Hill {1951-1969), and Thomas A. Sebeok {1970-1973). Each was asked to survey the period of his tenure; in addition, Cowan,who had learned the craft of the office from the Society's first Secretary, Roland G. Kent {deceased 1952),was to cover Kent's period of service. At the time, CO'flal'\was just embarking on a new career. He therefore asked his close friend Martin Joos to take on his share of the task, and to that end gave Joos all his files. Joos then did the bulk of the research and writing, but the~ conferred repeatedly, Cowansupplying information to which Joos v.t>uldnot otherwise have had access. Joos and HiU completed their assignments in time for the planned publication, but Sebeok, burdened with other responsibilities, was unable to do so. Since the Society did not wish to bring out an incomplete history, the project was suspended.

  • A Guide to the Records of the Mayor and City Council at the Baltimore City Archives
    Governing Baltimore: A Guide to the Records of the Mayor and City Council at the Baltimore City Archives William G. LeFurgy, Susan Wertheimer David, and Richard J. Cox Baltimore City Archives and Records Management Office Department of Legislative Reference 1981 Table of Contents Preface i History of the Mayor and City Council 1 Scope and Content 3 Series Descriptions 5 Bibliography 18 Appendix: Mayors of Baltimore 19 Index 20 1 Preface Sweeping changes occurred in Baltimore society, commerce, and government during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. From incorporation in 1796 the municipal government's evolution has been indicative of this process. From its inception the city government has been dominated by the mayor and city council. The records of these chief administrative units, spanning nearly the entire history of Baltimore, are among the most significant sources for this city's history. This guide is the product of a two year effort in arranging and describing the mayor and city council records funded by the National Historical Publications and Records Commission. These records are the backbone of the historical records of the municipal government which now total over three thousand cubic feet and are available for researchers. The publication of this guide, and three others available on other records, is preliminary to a guide to the complete holdings of the Baltimore City Archives scheduled for publication in 1983. During the last two years many debts to individuals were accumulated. First and foremost is my gratitude to the staff of the NHPRC, most especially William Fraley and Larry Hackman, who made numerous suggestions regarding the original proposal and assisted with problems that appeared during the project.

  • Loudon Park National Cemetery Lodge
    HISTORIC AMERICAN LANDSCAPES SURVEY LOUDON PARK NATIONAL CEMETERY, LODGE HALS No. MD-5-A Location: 3445 Frederick Avenue, Baltimore, (Independent City), Maryland. The coordinates for the Loudon Park National Cemetery, Lodge are 76.683404 W and 39.2722228 N, and they were obtained in August 2012 with, it is assumed, NAD 1983. There is no restriction on the release of the locational data to the public. Present Owner: National Cemetery Administration, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Prior to 1988, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs was known as the Veterans Administration. The Veterans Administration took over management of Loudon Park National Cemetery from the U.S. Army in 1973 (Public Law 93-43). Date: 1885-86. Builder/Contractor: William Roussey. Description: The lodge for Loudon Park retained the three-room, L-shaped plan developed for the Second Empire style lodges, however, it assumed a Victorian-era cottage aesthetic with cross gable roofs, overhanging eaves, decorative bargeboards and brackets, paired double-hung sash glazed with two-over-two lights and operable shutters on the exterior. The millwork inside plus the built-in cabinet and corner stair contributed to the overall cottage-like characteristics of the building. The principal elevation faces west toward the entrance drive. The building is two stories in height and was constructed of brick, complete with a water table. The chimneys were built of brick as well. Granite was used for the sills. Inside, the floors are wood, and the wood doors are paneled. In the mid-1920s electricity came to the lodge, and by the decade’s end, its heating system had been modernized as well.

  • The Mayor and the President by George W. Liebmann
    The Mayor and the President by George W. Liebmann This symposium has unlikely origins. It was in some measure prompted by a recent speech before the Supreme Court Historical Society by the celebrated Professor John Yoo. By way of demonstrating that the policies relating to detention and interrogation with which he is identified were consonant with American traditions, Professor Yoo delivered an address contending that the Merryman and Milligan cases were aberrations, what Justice Frankfurter called in another context, “derelicts on the waters of the law”. He alleged that “Merryman remains unknown to almost all but those scholars who toil in the academic fields of the separation of powers or the early days of the Civil War.”1 Merryman of course is better known than that. It was the subject of a centennial symposium in the federal district court for Maryland in 1961, addressed by William L. Marbury, Chief Judge Roszel C. Thomsen and Taney’s biographer H.H.Walker Lewis.2 It figures prominently in a number of books on executive power in wartime by such as Carl Brent Swisher (1974)3, Clinton Rossiter (1945)4, Frederick Bernays Wiener (1940)5 and Charles Warren (1935)6 that you will not find prominently cited in the recent writings of Professor Yoo, as well as in Chief Justice Rehnquist’s book on the subject.7 In 1961, executive detention without trial was not a burning issue. It is now. There is a vast literature, and there is therefore no excuse for another redundant discussion. The remarks of all three speakers today will therefore focus on unpublished documents by or about the contending 1 protagonists.

  • Three Centuries of Southern Poetry
    THREE CENTURIES OF Southern Poetry (1607-1907) CARL HOLLIDAY, M.A. Professor of English Literature, Cox College, Atlanta. Author of A History of Southern Literature^ The Cotton- Picker and Other Poems, Etc. Nashville, Tenn.; Dallas, Tex. Publishing House of the M. E. Church, South Smith & Lamar, Agents Copyright, 1908, BY Smith & Lamar. "hat most pleasant of men lnd most zealous of teachers, ir. (Eljarbfi HiUimn KfttJ PREFACE. Within the last decade the interest in Southern literature has become widespread. Nearly every Southern college and university now offers a course in the subject, and the summer schools and Chautauquas frequently make it a special feature. All this is as it should be. There nre Southern writers scarce- ly known by name to-day who are deserving of careful atten- tion. Especially is this true among the Southern poets, who, amidst prosperity and adversity, have sung songs of gladness and of sorrow that stand among the finest productions in American literature. How few of them are intimately, lov- ingly known at the present day! This collection is made in the hope that still further in- terest may be aroused. Other collections have been made, but they have dealt almost entirely with the poets living in the first sixty years of the nineteenth century. In the present compilation specimens are given from three centuries of Southern verse—from 1607 to 1907. Because of this fact the book, it is hoped, will be of interest not only to students of literature, but also to students of history and to lovers of the old and curious in general.
