Improving Special Collections Discovery With Dcx Digital Exhibits, Rachel S. Evans Dec 2021

Improving Special Collections Discovery With Dcx Digital Exhibits, Rachel S. Evans

Sandbox Series

This short paper and presentation is an update on the previously presented in July of 2021 titled “Automation Using Metadata Filters & Leveraging Research Assistants” with Savanna Nolan. Since that presentation, UGA Law Library served as a beta tester for Elsevier’s DCX – the Digital Commons exhibit solution. Launched late summer 2021, the exhibits that went live from UGA Law pleasantly surprised librarians who were lucky enough to discover that researchers were already retrieving the new digital exhibit content in their search engine results. This short paper shares the reasons why I have preferred working in DCX to build digital …

Diary Of Kena Fries, Jean Yothers Dec 2021

Diary Of Kena Fries, Jean Yothers

Florida Historical Quarterly

In 1870, a few Swedes led by Dr. William A. Henschen and his brother Esaias settled on Henry S. Sanford’s lands lying on the south shore of Lake Monroe. Other Swedes were not long in following them to central Florida. Sanford, in need of labor for the development of his new town and the care of his groves, employed Henschen as his agent to return to Sweden to recruit immigrants. In May 1871, Henschen returned with the first of two groups of Swedes. Many of their countrymen, hearing of the Swedish colony at New Uppsala near Sanford, came and established …

A French Would-Be Settler On Lafayette's Florida Township, Lucretia Ramsey Bishko

Florida Historical Quarterly

Lewis A. Pellerin, thirty-seven years old, a native of Normandy, sailed up the Mississippi to New Orleans in late March 1833. After taking part in the July Revolution of 1830 in France, he had suffered severe financial losses and was emigrating, together with his wife and two children, to the New World in search of a better fortune.


War Comes To San Marcos, Lawrence Kinnaird Dec 2021

War Comes To San Marcos, Lawrence Kinnaird

Florida Historical Quarterly

Of all the military posts established by Spain in West Florida after the Revolutionary War, San Marcos de Apalache was the only one ever to come under enemy fire. When Spain signed the treaty of San Ildefonso on August 19, 1796, and joined France in the war against Britain, military posts on the Mississippi were prepared for possible attack from Canada. There were many alarms, but all proved false. Along the Gulf coast no Spanish post was besieged by the enemy until war was brought to San Marcos by William Augustus Bowles, a British half-pay officer, and his Indian supporters.

The Agrarians From The Perspective Of Fifty Years: An Essay Review, Willard B. Gatewood, Jr. Dec 2021

The Agrarians From The Perspective Of Fifty Years: An Essay Review, Willard B. Gatewood, Jr.

Florida Historical Quarterly

In the fall of 1930 Harper and Brothers, an old and prestigious northern publishing house, brought out a collection of essays by “twelve Southerners,” entitled I’ll Take My Stand: The South and the Agrarian Tradition. Described at the time as a Southern or Southern Agrarian manifesto, the collection came into existence, according to one of the contributors, as “a sort of happening”— “a coalescence of circumstances and people and conditions” unlikely to reoccur. The contributors, known as the Agrarians, were for the most part natives of the rural, small-town areas of the westernmost South, and most at some point had …

Religious Censuses Of Pensacola, 1796-1801, Florida Historical Society Dec 2021

Religious Censuses Of Pensacola, 1796-1801, Florida Historical Society

Florida Historical Quarterly

There are few population censuses for colonial Florida. For Pensacola, there are two civil name censuses for the second Spanish period, 1781-1821; one prepared under the direction of Governor Arturo O’Neill in 1784, and another directed by Governor José Callava in 1820. Other censuses of a statistical nature also exist, but like the name censuses, they were taken only periodically. A third list of Pensacola names was found among the records in the Spanish archives; Bishop Cirilo de Barcelona’s report of his Santa Visita (Holy Visit) of 1791 contained ninety-seven names of Pensacola residents who had complied with the annual …

Engineers Vs Florida's Green Menace, George E. Buker Dec 2021

Engineers Vs Florida's Green Menace, George E. Buker

Florida Historical Quarterly

In the late 1880s or early 1890s (sources are vague as to the exact time), people living along the St. Johns River were enthralled by the addition of a beautiful floating water plant to the river’s scenery. Above a luxuriant green base towered a spike of purple flowers. Steamboat operators were pleased when the tourists admired the drifting bouquets gliding by their vessels. Cattlemen along the river were enthused at the prospect of a new cheap fodder for their stock. They gathered bundles of the floating greenery to carry upriver for propagation in their ponds and streams. Mr. Fuller, owner …


Tampa And The New Urban South: The Weight Strike Of 1899, Gary R. Mormino Dec 2021

Tampa And The New Urban South: The Weight Strike Of 1899, Gary R. Mormino

Florida Historical Quarterly

"The decade of the nineties is the watershed of American history," wrote Henry Steele Commager in The American Mind. The case of Tampa, Florida, in this period reinforces Commager’s suggestive thesis that the ten years before the beginning of the twentieth century ushered in modern values accompanied by a profound population change, economic transformation, and urban problems. War, immigration, urbanization, racial turmoil, labor strife, and industrialization— crises of the nineties— helped forge the transformation of Tampa during this era which resulted in the 1899 “Huelga de la Pesa,” (the Weight Strike) and its aftermath.


Wherever The Fight Is Thickest: General James Patton Anderson Of Florida, Larry Rayburn Dec 2021

Wherever The Fight Is Thickest: General James Patton Anderson Of Florida, Larry Rayburn

Florida Historical Quarterly

On the night of October 8, 1861, in the harbor of Pensacola Bay, long columns of gray clad soldiers marched slowly aboard steamers moored by the dock. Officers whispered orders, and the enlisted men spoke in hushed tones. Aside from their voices, only the rattle of canteens and the lapping of water against the steamers broke the silence of the autumn darkness.

Florida Seminoles And The Census Of 1900, Harry A. Kersey, Jr. Dec 2021

Florida Seminoles And The Census Of 1900, Harry A. Kersey, Jr.

Florida Historical Quarterly

One of the most persistent problems confronting historians dealing with the Seminole Indians in Florida during the late-nineteenth century has been a paucity of reliable population data. In the first four decades of the modern tribal era, the years following cessation of the Third Seminole War in 1858, there was only one attempt at a comprehensive account of Florida Seminoles. That was a survey conducted in the winter of 1880-1881 by Clay MacCauley for the Smithsonian Institution, which yielded what has become the generally accepted base line population figures. He found 208 Seminoles residing in the state, the unhappy remnant …


A Lost Landmark Revisited: The Panton House Of Pensacola, Thomas D. Watson Dec 2021

A Lost Landmark Revisited: The Panton House Of Pensacola, Thomas D. Watson

Florida Historical Quarterly

Fire destroyed much of Pensacola during the night of September 24-25, 1848. Among the many buildings lost to the flames was the imposing, three-story brick mansion that once had served as the West Florida headquarters of Panton, Leslie and Company. For over half a century its columns had towered above the northern shoreline of Pensacola Bay as silent reminders of bygone years when William Panton, its builder and first occupant, had lorded it over the southern Indian trade from within its confines.


Loyalist Refugees And The British Evacuation Of East Florida, 1783-1785, Carole Watterson Troxler Dec 2021

Loyalist Refugees And The British Evacuation Of East Florida, 1783-1785, Carole Watterson Troxler

Florida Historical Quarterly

From the beginning of the American Revolution, the security afforded by the St. Augustine garrison attracted loyalists from nearby Georgia and the Carolinas to the British colony of East Florida. The stream of refugees fluctuated with the course of the war. It swelled in 1778, reflecting the confiscation and banishment acts, but reversed itself the following year in the wake of the British invasion of the southern colonies. The autumn of 1782 brought a flood of men who had gained the enmity of their neighbors by service in loyalist militia or provincial corps. They accompanied the British withdrawal, first from …

Reflecting On Crucibles: Clarifying Values In Authentic Leaders, Louise Kelly, Eissa Hashemi

The Journal of Values-Based Leadership

This qualitative study explores the role of crucibles, life-triggering moments, parents’ life mottos and definitions of success, and holding values in the lives of authentic leaders.

Codes Of Ethics: Extending Classification Techniques With Natural Language Processing, Zachary Glass, E. Susanna Cahn Dec 2021

Codes Of Ethics: Extending Classification Techniques With Natural Language Processing, Zachary Glass, E. Susanna Cahn

The Journal of Values-Based Leadership

Language is an indicator of how stakeholders view an ethics code’s intent, and key to distinguishing code properties, such as promoting ethical-valued decision-making or code-based compliance. This article quantifies ethics codes’ language using Natural Language Processing (NLP), then uses machine learning to classify ethics codes. NLP overcomes some inherent difficulties of “measuring” verbal documents. Ethics codes selected from lists of “best” companies were compared with codes from a sample of Fortune 500 companies. Results show that some of these ethics codes are different enough from the norm to be distinguished by an algorithm; indicating as well that lists of “best” …


Prudence, Ethics And Anticipation In Visionary Leaders, Yanick Farmer Dec 2021

Prudence, Ethics And Anticipation In Visionary Leaders, Yanick Farmer

The Journal of Values-Based Leadership

In ethics, prudence is an essential skill in making informed decisions. Although several studies in various fields have dealt with the notion, few empirical studies have addressed one of its inextricable aspects: anticipation. To gain a better understanding of the notion, this study questioned fifteen leaders whose peers consider to be “visionary” in their respective fields. The results of this qualitative study based on semi-structured interviews describe the fundamental aspects of anticipation according to three categories: reasoning and trend analysis, implementation and strategy, and personality and values.
