Delno C. West Award Winner: Using And Abusing Delegated Power In Elizabethan England, James H. Forse
Delno C. West Award Winner: Using And Abusing Delegated Power In Elizabethan England, James H. Forse
Quidditas
Queen Elizabeth's government, like most early modern European governments, was one that sought to extend its influence and power throughout the realm. But at the same time it possessed minimal financial resources and coercive machinery of power, and therefore, while it issued mandates, it had to depend upon local officials and individuals to whom it delegated power. Nor did Elizabeth’s government have any machinery of oversight to “watch-dog” those delegated powers. Only when issues came to the attention of the Privy Council after-the-fact did the government, occasionally, intervene to redress abuses of those delegated powers. Two areas in which these …

Special Feature: The Swiss In Eighteenth-Century South Carolina: Response To Kristina Marcy's "Review Essay", Carol Williams
Swiss American Historical Society Review
Like most white South Carolinians of my generation, I have various strands of European ancestry: Scots-Irish, English, German, Swiss, and since my name is "Williams," probably Welsh by way of England, then Ulster. However, it was the Swiss strand that I was most conscious of when growing up because I knew a little more about it. A grandmother often talked to us children about "our people," about "dear old Grandfather," whose own grandfather had come from Switzerland in the mid-eighteenth century: George Sightler (Seitler, Siteler, Sitler); and we had a written history of his family in South Carolina.
Under His Own Flag: John Baker’S Gravestone Memorial In Retrospect, George L. Findlen
Under His Own Flag: John Baker’S Gravestone Memorial In Retrospect, George L. Findlen
Maine History
John Baker is an enigmatic figure, half hero and half scoundrel His actions in raising the American flag on the north shore of the St. John River in July 1827, in defiance of British authorities, contributed to the tensions that resulted in the “Bloodless” Aroostook War in 1839, and this in turn provided the impetus for settling the U.S.-Canadian boundary along the St. John River according to the Webster-Ashburton Treaty of 1842. Jn 1868 the State of Maine erected a monument of sorts to the memory of John Baker in a cemetery near Fort Fairfield. Pondering why the monument was …

Theology His Profession, Botany His Passion: Thomas A. Bruhin, 1835-1895, Herbert Bruhin
Swiss American Historical Society Review
In the little town of Schwyz, in the heart of the Swiss Confederation, on April 20, 1642, the joyous strains of Easter Mass had scarcely died away when a cry of "Fire!" was raised. Less than two hours later, the greater part of the town, which lies at the foot of the twin Mythen peaks about an hour's journey from Lake Lucerne, was a smoking ruin. Among the 47 houses destroyed were the presbytery, dating from 1594, the school, two inns, the mill with the mint, and the church with its tower and bells. Fortunately, it had been possible to …
To ‘Make This Port Union All Over’: Longshore Militancy In Portland, 1911-1913, Michael C. Connelly
To ‘Make This Port Union All Over’: Longshore Militancy In Portland, 1911-1913, Michael C. Connelly
Maine History
n 1853 the Grand Trunk Railroad connected Portland to Montreal and to the grain trade of the Canadian interior. Some three decades later, the city's predominantly Irish longshoremen formed a Benevolent Society and, in an ongoing search for job security in this volatile trade they voted, just before World War I, to affiliate with the International Longshoremen’s Association, hoping “to make this port Union all over." Michael Connolly's article explores the decisions and actions that led up to this important event in Maine's labor history. Dr. Connolly is the grandson of a charter member of the Society. He is Associate …

Gertrude Hofmann Langer. The Story Of A Life, Edward G. Langer
Swiss American Historical Society Review
I was born on May 1, 1911 in Kttsnacht, Canton Zttrich, Switzerland. That day is a national holiday in Switzerland which is their equivalent of our Labor Day. It certainly was Labor Day for my mother, Marie Walder Hofmann. (December 22, 1890 - August 23, 1959). The name Kttsnacht means a kiss in the night. My name was a very common name in Switzerland at the time. I had no middle name. The Swiss spelling of my name is Gertrud.

Technology Across The Border, New England And The Southern New Brunswick Cotton Industry, 1880-1884, Judith Rygiel
Technology Across The Border, New England And The Southern New Brunswick Cotton Industry, 1880-1884, Judith Rygiel
Maine History
New England textile entrepreneurs, mill architects, and consultants had a direct influence on cotton textile production in southern New Brunswick in the early 1880s. In an advisory capacity, they offered advice on capitalization, equipment, labor models, product, and management strategies, vastly affecting the community landscape in Maritime textile towns. This paper examines the distinct influences of New England's textile entrepreneurs on three southern New Brunswick cotton mills built in the early 1880s. Judith Rygiel is a doctoral student in history at Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada. She grew up in Moncton, New Brunswick, near a cotton mill. Her 1998 M.A. …

Bound To Serve: Indentured Servitude In Colonial Virginia, 1624-177 6, Penny Howard
Bound To Serve: Indentured Servitude In Colonial Virginia, 1624-177 6, Penny Howard
The Corinthian
Was indentured servitude the cornerstone of slavery? If such a premise is to be accepted, then the indentured may be termed "white slaves." Yet not all historians are so quick to place the label of slave on servants who worked for a set term. Other historians argue that servitude was a form of apprenticeship and servants were treated no worse than their European counterparts. Indeed, historians rightly contend that precedent in English common law set the precedent for Virginia statutes regarding servitude.
Education And The Rural Middle Class: Limington Academy, 1848-1860, Lynne Benoit-Vashon
Education And The Rural Middle Class: Limington Academy, 1848-1860, Lynne Benoit-Vashon
Maine History
The founding of academies in Maine during the early nineteenth-century expanded educational options for rural families, but academies also played an important role in the development of a rural middle class. In her study of Limington Academy, Lynne Benoit-Vachon finds that the school's by-laws, curriculum, course materials, and extra-curricular activities all worked to inculcate middle-class values of hard work, sobriety, self-improvement, and self-reliance in the Academy's young charges - training which would lead many of them into middle-class occupations beyond Limington’s borders. Benoit-Vachon, a graduate of the University of Maine, works as Education Programs Coordinator at the Currier Gallery of …
The Milk Connection: Portland’S Infant Milk Station And Public Health Education, Annette Vance Dorey
The Milk Connection: Portland’S Infant Milk Station And Public Health Education, Annette Vance Dorey
Maine History
Progressive Era reformers worked to improve the health standards and living conditions of poor and immigrant populations in United States cities. In this article, Annette K. Vance Dorey highlights the often overlooked work of the nurses who managed “milk stations” - early public health clinics established for distributing clean milk in urban neighborhoods. Dorey argues that these nurses, who also conducted parent education classes and provided access to a range of health services, played an important role in the reduction of urban infant mortality rales and the development of the public health profession. Dorey is an educator specializing in teacher …

Swiss American Historical Society Review
At 10:00 A.M., President Karl I. Niederer called the business meeting to order. He expressed the Society's thanks to His Excellency, Ambassador Alfred Defago for hosting this meeting and to staff Member Ms. Florence Nicole for having so efficiently taken care of all the local arrangements. The Society has traditionally met here in Washington every third year. Our Washington meetings also mark the conclusion of outgoing officers' three-year terms and the election of new officers, so meeting in this place has a special significance. Mr. Niederer also expressed his deep appreciation to Ambassador and Mrs. Defago for welcoming us to …
