    PVHS Proceedings of the Vermont Historical Society 1942 NEW SERIES' MARCH VOL. X No. I THE RISE OF CORNELIUS PETER VAN NESS 1782- 18 26 By T. D. SEYMOUR BASSETT Cornelius Peter Van Ness was a colorful and vigorous leader in a formative period of Vermont history, hut he has remained in the dusk of that history. In this paper Mr. Bassett has sought to recall __ mm and IUs activities and through him throw definite light on h4s ---------­ eventfultime.l.- -In--this--study Van--N-esr--ir-brought;-w--rlre-dt:a.mot~ months of his attempt in the senatorial election of I826 to succeed Horatio Seymour. 'Ulhen Mr. Bassett has completed his research into thot phase of the career of Van Ness, we hope to present the re­ sults in another paper. Further comment will he found in the Post­ script. Editor. NDIVIDUALISM is the boasted virtue of Vermonters. If they I are right in their boast, biographies of typical Vermonters should re­ veal what individualism has produced. Governor Van Ness was a typical Vermonter of the late nineteenth century, but out of harmony with the Vermont spirit of his day. This essay sketches his meteoric career in administrative, legislative and judicial office, and his control of Vermont federal and state patronage for a decade up to the turning point of his career, the senatorial campaign of 1826.1 His family had come to N ew York in the seventeenth century. 2 His father was by trade a wheelwright, strong-willed, with little book-learning. A Revolutionary colonel and a county judge, his purchase of Lindenwald, an estate at Kinderhook, twenty miles down the Hudson from Albany, marked his social and pecuniary success.s Cornelius was born at Lindenwald on January 26, 1782.

    The Vermont Gubernatorial Election of 1826

    Anticipating Antimasonry: The Vermont Gubernatorial Election of 1826 As early as the gubernatorial election of 1826, many issues that underlay the multifaceted antimasonic crusade were already being subjected to spirited debate in Vermont. By Kenneth A. Degree iscussing political antimasonry during the spring of 1829, Jonathan Allen of Middlebury commented that until re- Dcently, the “excitement” engendered by the movement had but slightly touched the Green Mountains. “The last four months, how- ever,” he wrote, “have seen it burst upon us like the sudden explosion of a volcano.”1 Allen leaves his readers with the impression that no one could have anticipated the antimasonic eruption, which raged through- out the state during its brief existence, leaving scorched earth, scars, and gouges in the political landscape. It would have taken quite a seer to predict the fury sparked by the disappearance and possible murder of William Morgan in upstate New York in 1826 for threatening to ex- pose Masonic secrets. Yet in retrospect, the widespread misgivings, discontent, and concerns that accompanied the rise of the new eco- nomic order taking shape in Vermont after the War of 1812 can be viewed as the initial bursts of steam and ash from the crater, to carry this volcanic metaphor to its conclusion. ..................... Kenneth A. Degree has long been captivated by the history of his native state, particularly antebellum politics. The author of several books and articles on Ver- mont, he is currently working on a biography of William Slade.
