61. DCL History: Bringing Culture To Durham
Edwin Mims, Professor of English at Trinity College since 1894, offered the ideaof a public library. Mims involvement with the movement to establish a
http://www.durhamcountylibrary.org/ncc/dclhist/02bringing.htm
Bringing Culture to Durham The Durham Public Library was incorporated by an act of the North Carolina General Assembly on March 5, 1897. This statute marked the culmination of a drive begun in Durham in 1895, which in turn reflected a wider movement to encourage culture and refinement in a town characterized primarily by dusty factories and raw saloons. The town of Durham had been in existence since 1852 when Dr. Bartlett Durham donated four acres of land to the North Carolina Railway for a station; the town was incorporated in 1869, but the county had been established only in 1881. The carving out of Durham County from the long-established counties of Orange and Wake was the result of a post-war economic and population boom, traceable to the remarkable success of Durham's tobacco industry from the 1870s. This young county rapidly found its place at the forefront of the processes that would make North Carolina the most industrialized Southern state by 1920.[
S.R. Carrington's Bar, circa 1880. ] Recognizing Durham's distinctiveness in this regard, historian W. E. B. Dubois remarked in 1920 that Hayti's "social and economic development is perhaps more striking than that of any similar group in the nation."[

Durham prospered because of the national demand for Durham's distinctive bright-leaf tobacco and increasing popularity of smoking tobacco (especially in the form of cigarettes) in the later decades of the nineteenth century.

Durham made its bid in 1888. 6. Celestia Southgate, daughter of prominent citizen and insurance salesman James Southgate, had laid the groundwork for Durham's conservatory when she established the Durham School of Music in 1886. 7. The idea for a public library was not entirely new in Durham; other organizations had considered the idea and Main Street Methodist Church had established a reading room open evenings and free to the public in 1894. See Anderson, 202. 8. After putting Bull Durham tobacco on the map through aggressive advertising, Carr diversified into some of tobacco's satellite industries, including cotton, banking, and electricity; he also started the Golden Belt Manufacturing Company.

JAMES MADISON'S VETO MESSAGES
by Gene Garman
VETO MESSAGE From President James Madison, Thursday, February 21, 1811:
To the House of Representatives of the United States:
Having examined and considered the bill entitled "An Act incorporating the Protestant Episcopal Church in the town of Alexandria, in the District of Columbia," I now return the bill to the House of Representatives, in which it originated, with the following objections:
Because the bill vests in the said incorporated church an authority to provide for the support of the poor and the education of poor children of the same, an authority which, being altogether superfluous if the provision is to be the result of pious charity, would be a precedent for giving to religious societies as such a legal agency in carrying into effect a public and civil duty. [ Writings of James Madison The Papers of James Madison: Presidential Series,
In the House of Representatives, Thursday, February 21, 1811:
A Message was received from the President of the United States, by Mr. Edward Coles, his Secretary, who, by command of the President, returned to the House the bill passed by the two Houses entitled "An act incorporating the Protestant Episcopal Church in the town of Alexandria, in the District of Columbia," and presented to the President for his approbation and signature, on Thursday the fourteenth instant, to which bill the President having made objections, . . .
The objections were read, and ordered to be entered at large

OLD BETHEL CHURCH and CEMETERY
Natchitoches Parish, Louisiana
Located nine miles west of Natchitoches, LA on LA Hwy 6 (one miles west of Hagewood, LA), turn right onto Shady Grove Road (Parish Road 556 ), then approximately two miles, turn right on Old Bethel Church Road (Natchitoches Parish Road 553), travel about one and a half miles then turn left at Old Bethel Church and Cemetery sign. It is believed that Old Bethel Church and Cemetery were established around 1847. Mrs. Edith Garzia, a long time resident of the area and whose relatives are buried in the cemetery, states that local history indicates that the church and cemetery served a thriving community in the years before the Civil War. The oldest marked grave is that of Margaret E. Wynn, whose stone is marked "/Died April 3, 1860; Aged 29 yrs, 6 mos, 25 days; w/o Josiah F. Scarborough".(1) Mrs. Mary Anna Donaho, a Provencal, LA folklorist, relates that Old Bethel Church and Cemetery were established by a Mr. Hawley and his wife, whose maiden name was Axley (Oxley). Mr. Hawley was from the state of New York and migrated to settle in the Spanish Lake area of Natchitoches Parish, LA. There is a marker for Philo S. Hawley, who died in 1918. (2) It was during the Civil War that the Baptist Women's Missionary College, located near this site, was burned by the Union army. Mrs. Donaho states that a Mathais Scarbrough was head master of the College at that time. Several residents of the area have mentioned that they remember seeing evidence of former large buildings at this site as well as the thickety growth of crape myrtle bushes around the building sites. Mrs. Grazia indicates that both the church and cemetery were damaged at this time as well.

Some of The First Official Meanings Assigned to The Establishment Clause
While James Madison was president of the United States (1809-1817 He vetoed three bills sent to him by Congress to sign into law. President Madison vetoed the bills because, in his opinion, they violated the Establishment clause. Researched and edited by Jim Allison While history has given President Thomas Jefferson the primary credit for defining the Establishment clause with the policy statement he made in his reply to the Danbury Baptist Association in 1803, at least two of the three reasons given by President Madison in his vetoes of these bills apply more directly to situations that confront America in the second half of the 20th century. In what follows, you will read the historical record as it exists pertaining to the two bills Madison returned to Congress. The third bill was a pocket veto. You will also read the historical record regarding the only debate recorded on this matter. Interestingly, some of the arguments advanced by Representative Wheaton, in favor of overriding the veto, are some of the very arguments advanced today by some non-preferentialists and accommodationists. Mr. Wheaton's arguments did not carry the day, and two days after the debate, the House failed to acquire the required 2/3 majority to override the President's veto.

The official papers comprise the greatest part of the collection. They chronicle the day to day activities of the President's Office. The personal papers offer an interesting picture of Donovan an aggressive leader who sought to secure a regional and national educational reputation for Eastern. The papers provide unique information on Eastern's history and growth, Richmond and Central Kentucky's social and economic history during the 1920's and 193015, and higher education practices in Kentucky. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH OF HERMAN LEE DONOVAN Herman Lee Donovan was born on March 17, 1887 in Mason County, Kentucky. His early education was in the common schools of that county. He attended Western Kentucky State Normal School, 1906-08, received the B.A. from the University of Kentucky in 1914; the M.A. degree from Columbia University in 1920; and the Ph.D. degree from George Peabody College for Teachers in 1925 For a while he was also a graduate student at the University of Chicago. In 1933 the University of Kentucky conferred upon him the LL.D degree.

Duke University Historical Notes
Remembering Ben Duke
Benjamin Newton Duke, tobacco and textile entrepreneur and philanthropist, was the primary benefactor of Trinity College after it relocated to Durham in 1892. He also was the principal link between the Duke family and the college and university until his death in 1929. While his father and brother received extensive publicity for vital, substantial donations, "Mr. Ben," as he was affectionately known, quietly supported the growing institution in innumerable ways. His support was so reliable and crucial that administrators acknowledged that without his generosity Duke never could have become a major university. President William P. Few always emphasized that the university was built around a strong undergraduate college. "Mr. Ben's" benefactions built Trinity College. He not only contributed money for construction and endowment but he also donated funds for equipment, salaries, remodeling, landscaping, and simply for current expenses. For all of Ben Duke's support, the most modest and retiring of the Duke brothers long had only a single sign identifying his gifts on campus. The stone column to the right at the main entrance to East Campus has a plaque dated July 12, 1915, acknowledging that the granite wall circling the campus is a gift of B. N. Duke. To the average visitor, Benjamin N. Duke remained unknown since he had no public statue dominating the campus like that of his father on East or his brother on West.

Preface
The present volume is a biography of Lanier rather than a critical study
of his work. So far as possible, I have told the story in his own words,
or in the words of those who knew him most intimately. If I have erred
in placing undue emphasis on the early part of his career, it was intentional,
for that is the part of his life about which least is known.
I have intentionally emphasized his relation to the South, in order to avoid
a misconception that he was a detached figure. The bibliographies prepared by Mr. Wills for the "Southern History Association" and by Mr. Callaway for his "Select Poems of Lanier" make one unnecessary for this volume. Of previously published material, I have been greatly indebted to the Memorial by Mr. William Hayes Ward, the fuller sketch by the late Professor W. M. Baskervill, and the volume of letters published by Messrs. Charles Scribner's Sons. For new material, I am indebted, first of all, to Mrs. Sidney Lanier, who has put me in possession, not of the most intimate correspondence of the poet
