Postscript To John Bemrose's Reminiscences, John K. Mahon

Florida Historical Quarterly

Since John Bemrose's Reminiscences of the Second Seminole War was published, additional information about the author has been found. Inconsequential though the new data is, perhaps some of the fun of uncovering it can be communicated to the reader. From the date of publication it has troubled me that I did not know what became of Bemrose after he had returned to his native England. The opportunity to fill in the unknown factors came during the summer of 1967, when I was in Britain.

Fort Pierce American Gold Find, Carl J. Clausen

Florida Historical Quarterly

"The probability is that the treasure will never be recovered," states the Charleston Daily Courier, reporting in 1857 the accidental loss of a sizeable United States army payroll in a Florida east coast inlet. The Third Seminole War, which officially started with the not entirely unprovoked attack by the Indians on a government survey party near Fort Myers in late December 1855, was in its seventeenth month when Major Jeremiah Yellot Dashiell of the army paymaster corps arrived off the Indian River Inlet on the east coast of Florida on May 1, 1857. Entrusted to Dashiell was a leather pouch …

Contract Labor In Florida During Reconstruction, Edward K. Eckert

Florida Historical Quarterly

Until relatively recent times the historiography of the Reconstruction period in Florida could be summed up by Claude G. Bowers’ three-word paragraph, “Florida was putrid.” Legislatures full of swindlers, “railroad steals,” “shabby strangers,” and “old black mammies,” praising God and voting Republican, were all a part of the traditional image of this so-called dark era of United States history. Revisionist historians such as Howard K. Beale, David Donald, Kenneth Stampp, and Rembert W. Patrick have challenged this view. They describe the years after the Civil War as a progressive age for the South when civil, educational, and economic reforms brought …

Fighting Men View The Western War, 1862-1864, George C. Bittle

Florida Historical Quarterly

The Florida units fighting the Confederate cause in the West made no major contribution to the overall war effort, yet many Florida officers and men did yeomen service in the South’s Army of Tennessee. The experiences of these soldiers certainly reflect those of many other Confederate fighting men in the same army. In this sense, the trials and tribulations of these Floridians may be used to illustrate the changing conditions among at least one segment of the southern troops on a very important front of the Civil War.

A View Of Celi's Journal Of Surveys And Chart Of 1757, John D. Ware

Florida Historical Quarterly

The San Francisco de Asis was a xebec, one of a class of relatively small three-masted sailing vessels used around the Spanish and Portuguese coasts. Her fore and mizzenmasts were lateen rigged, and her mainmast was square rigged, having three sails - main, lower main, and upper mainsails. This type was frequently outfitted with oars for use in calm water, but there is no indication that this vessel was so equipped.

Celi's Expedition To Tampa Bay: A Historical Analysis, Charles W. Arnade

Florida Historical Quarterly

"De la Havana al Puerto de Tampa, Año de 1757, Diario de Reconocimientos, Oceano Atlantico Septentrional" by Don Francisco Maria Celi is unquestionably a key document in Florida history and the history of Tampa Bay. The chronology of its recent discovery is not too complicated. Celi, “Pilot of the Royal Spanish Navy” and commander of the Florida expedition, carefully prepared a useful and artistically beautiful map that went with his report. This map (actually there were two versions) was known to modern historians, but the accompanying report was not. The late Clarence Simpson had knowledge of the Celi map, as …

Baseball At The Precipice Of A Watershed Moment In The Production Of The Popular, Nathan E. Vaughn

Madison Historical Review

Baseball's 1919 season has been seen in two different ways. First, it has been seen as a triumphant season in which Babe Ruth ended the Dead-Ball Era and brought baseball into a productive Live-Ball Era. Second, it has been seen as disastrous season ending in the Black Sox Scandal, the worst sin in baseball history. Traditionally, the social historical perspective has made sense of these differing views by noting the power of the capitalist owners over their player-employees. In banning the eight Black Sox for life, the owners forcefully removed the offending party and brought their sport into line without …

Little Steel’S Labor War In Youngstown, Ben J. St. Angelo

Madison Historical Review

During the 1930s, in response to growing labor discontent, the United States Congress passed the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). Championed by President Franklin Roosevelt’s as an equalizing measure in the American workplace, the NLRA received vigorous opposition from powerful leaders in multiple industries. This article examines an outbreak of violence between workers and agents of management at Republic Steel in Youngstown, Ohio during the spring and summer of 1937 when workers attempted to organize—emboldened by new rights granted to them in the NLRA. It demonstrates the life and death consequences that marred labor relations in the United States. Disputes …

A Distinction Without A Difference: Vietnam, Sir Robert Thompson, And The Policing Failures Of Vietnam, Mark J. Rothermel

Madison Historical Review

The scholarship analyzing the failure of the American involvement in Vietnam began even before the war finished. Whether the Orthodox School which considered the war unwinnable or the revisionist which argued there was a path to victory for the Americans, there have been libraries of tomes arguing who or what was to blame for the American defeat. An increased amount of scholarship recently has been written regarding the influence of British officer Sir Robert Thompson and his attempt to advise both the South Vietnamese and American war efforts.

Thompson, who gained fame as one of the key leaders for the …

“By Her Needle Maintain Herself With Reputation:” Philadelphia Quaker Women And The Materiality Of Piety, 1758-1760, Laura Earls

Madison Historical Review

From the garments that they made to the ways that they spoke, Quakers grappled with the outward trappings of piety. Unofficial Quaker guidance enumerated some vague criteria for plain garments around the turn of the eighteenth century, but aside from this, pious members largely decided for themselves what was or was not plain. This paper utilizes a close study of the diaries and possessions of women including Elizabeth Sandwith Drinker, Grace Peel Dowell Parr, Hannah Callender Sansom, and their contemporaries to argue that, rather than represent lapses of faith, their material worlds represented individual interpretations of plainness within rigid social …

The Anglo-Saxons--Stoddard And Lovecraft: Ideas Of Anglo-Saxon Supremacy And The New England Counter-Revolution, Benjamin M. Welton

Madison Historical Review

This paper attempts to explain the New England Counter-Revolution through two very different men--H.P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) and T. Lothrop Stoddard (1883-1950). While one was a respected and popular scholar, and the other was a little-known pulp writer, both men combined New England regionalism, a belief in Anglo-Saxon superiority, the primacy of modern science, and a belief in racial/eugenic differences to create a unique political paradigm little recognized at the time but influential today.

Meninjau Kedudukan Pelaku Riddah Dan Hukuman Mati Bagi Pelaku Riddah Berdasarkan Hukum Islam Dan Hak Asasi Manusia Dalam Sudut Pandang Islam, Muhammad Adiguna Bimasakti, Nadim Raouf

Journal of Islamic Law Studies

Riddah is an act of apostasy in Islamic faith. Some texts of the hadits (sayings of The Prophet PBUH) indicate that the apostate shall be punished with death sentence. Beside, the apostate will also lose some of his/her rights according to Islamic Sharia. But there is also a principle of Freedom of Religion in quranic text as we read in Surah Albaqarah (chapter 2) verse 256 which says: “There is no compulsion in religion”. This also indicates that the Freedom of Religion in Islamic perspective is guaranteed, and cannot be taken. Thus this writing tries to elaborate the two which …

Keabsahan Perkawinan Beda Agama Dan Kewenangan Mengadili Sengketanya Dalam Perspektif Hukum Antar Tata Hukum Indonesia, Muhammad Adiguna Bimasakti

Journal of Islamic Law Studies

Perkawinan merupakan suatu hal yang sangat sakral dalam beberapa kebudayaan. Beberapa tahun belakangan isu perkawinan beda agama menjadi isu yang kembali hangat dibicarakan, terutama sejak adanya Permohonan Pengujian Pasal 2 ayat (1) UU Perkawinan No. 1 Tahun 1974 kepada Mahkamah Konstitusi dengan Nomor Perkara 68/PUU-XII/2014 yang mana seolah Pasal 2 ayat (1) ini dianggap melarang perkawinan beda agama di Indonesia.

Lalu bagaimana dengan legitimasi praktik perkawinan beda agama yang sudah terjadi? Kompetensi Absolut peradilan manakah yang berwenang mengadili terkait sengketa perkawinan …

The Implementation Of Islamic Law: Through Islamic Law Politics And Not Through Terrorism, Tjahjo Suprajogo

Journal of Islamic Law Studies

In the context of Indonesia, empirically and historically there is no doubt that Islamic law is one important element in the formation of national law (positive law).
