  • Paper-Mills in Hampshire
    i PAPER-MILLS IN HAMPSHIRE. By A. H. SHORTER, M.A., F.S.A., F.R.G.S. LMOST all the paper-mills which have been at work at one time or another in Hampshire were established before 1800. A The well-known antiquity of the industry at Laverstoke and near Southampton prompted an inquiry into the origins of other paper-mills, and evidence has now been found of paper-making in six localities in the county before 1700. No doubt the powerful, clear streams were one factor attracting early paper-makers to various parts of the county, and by 1750 the industry was well scattered. Unfortunately, evidence concerning the early paper-makers and paper-mills in the British Isles is extremely dispersed up to 1816, when the Excise authorities,1 who had managed the duty on paper since 1712, issued what is apparently the first of a series of General Letters and Orders giving the names of paper-makers and the names and numbers of paper-mills in England. From these it is possible to reconstruct something of the history of many paper-mills between 1816 and 1852. Most of the Hampshire paper-mills ceased work long ago, this process being part of the general contraction of the paper-making industry geographically from about 1830 to the present time. During this long period, hundreds of paper-mills, especially the smaller and more remote mills, went out of production, the adverse factors including increasing and effective competition from better- situated and better-equipped mills, changes in transport and raw materials, the paper duties and so on.

THE ATLANTIC LEGACIES OF ZEPHANIAH KINGSLEY: BENEVOLENCE, BONDAGE, AND PROSLAVERY FICTIONS IN THE AGE OF EMANCIPATION by MARK J. FLESZAR Under the Direction of Dr. Jeffrey Robert Young and Dr. Jared C. Poley ABSTRACT Nineteenth-century slaveholders of the Atlantic master class had many reasons to be con- cerned with the future. In a world ushered in with the aid of the Haitian Revolution, slave revolts in these sensitive times seemed to erupt with increased frequency, leaving greater destruction in their wakes. Abolition and a transatlantic antislavery movement appeared as determined cru- sades to bring an end not only to human suffering in black chattel slavery but to the system’s un- surpassed wealth. In this era of sweeping changes a vision of British West Indian society with- out slaves was first debated and then made a reality on 1 August 1834.
