  • William Lincoln
    424 American Antiquarian Society. [Oct. WILLIAM LINCOLN. BY CHARLES A. CHASE. IT has been the good fortune of this Society, through the four-score years of its existence, that at every period in its history there has been at least one man who stood forward to render such service as should best promote its interests. Our founder gave his valuable collection of books and newspapers as a nucleus for the library, and bestowed upon us the first library-building as a depository for its treasures and such accretions as it should receive in follow- ing years ; finally crowning his frequent benefactions with rich bequests for its maintenance and perpetuation. In later years, the work has been well kept up ; now by those who were diligent and unwearying in gleaning from every field the choicest grains, to be garnered in the magazine ; now by those whose intelligent munificence has builded a newer and a larger storehouse, or has furnished the means to employ skilful reapers, or to increase the gathered har- vest. Prominent among those to whom the Society must ever be indebted, stands the name of William Lincoln, who gave it his unintermitted attention during his all-too- brief a lifetime. Mr. Lincoln was the brother, and by twenty years the junior, of the Hon. Levi Lincoln, long a Councillor of the Society. Born at Worcester, on September 26, 1802, he • was the seventh and youngest child of that Levi Lincoln who, coming to Worcester in December, 1775, was at once appointed Clerk of the courts which had then just been re-opened, was for four years Judge of Probate, was 1891.] William Lincoln.

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.
