There is also a biographical sketch of John Taylor, and one of John Penn. ","John Taylor served in the Continental Army as a major and colonel and would go on to serve in the Virginia House of Delegates from 1779 to 1785 and in the early United States Senate. He became known for his support of Jeffersonian Republicanism, with his work was published prolifically over the final three decades of his life. ","John Penn was one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence.","This collection contains the papers of John Taylor of Caroline (1753-1824) and papers from associated family members. Taylor served in the Continental Army as a major and colonel and would go on to serve in the Virginia House of Delegates from 1779 to 1785 and in the early United States Senate. He became known for his support of Jeffersonian Republicanism, with his work published prolifically over the final three decades of his life. The collection contains twenty-five handwritten documents roughly grouped into three categories: correspondence of John Taylor, legal documents authored by John Taylor, and Taylor family material not authored by John Taylor. Not many of his papers survived so this collection is very rare. ","The correspondence of John Taylor contains eleven items dating from 1777 to 1812. Four letters recount Taylor's service as an officer in the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War, in Princeton, New Jersey dating from April to October 1777. Two letters are more personal and one is written to his wife, Lucy, and the other to his son, Henry. There are five letters addressed to politicians James Monroe, Josiah Quincy, and two unnamed officials complain of the strife brought about by the War of 1812. ","The legal documents authored by John Taylor are three items: one deed and two wills  including an 1809 deed from John to his son, Edmund, which describes the Taylor family property in detail, and a list of the first names of thirty-one enslaved persons. ","The Taylor family material not authored by John Taylor includes eleven items: seven letters, two legal documents, and two genealogical documents. There are letters to and from family members (descendants), and letters from friends or attorneys. There are also two letters that mention a court case related to disease (possibly Cholera) in Port Royal and possible causes directed at Taylor's plans for two dams on his property. There is a March 1898 letter between his grandson John Penn Taylor and W.W. Scott of Houghton Mifflin Publishing, who were interested in featuring John Taylor in their American Statesmen series.","Bill, Nancy, Charles,Carter, Edmund, William, [Glauster], Annica, John, harry, Angella, Patsey, Lewis, Peter, [Arange], Reuben, Fanny, Annister, Phillis, George, William, Betsy, Sally, Frank, Frankey,Poly, Robin, Pompey, Lewis, Aggy, and Fanny","Albert and Shirley Small Special Collections Library","Donald Lippincott","Taylor, John, 1753-1824","English"],"unitid_tesim":["MSS 2521","Archival Resource Key","/repositories/3/resources/1869"],"normalized_title_ssm":["John Taylor of Caroline papers"],"collection_title_tesim":["John Taylor of Caroline papers"],"collection_ssim":["John Taylor of Caroline papers"],"repository_ssm":["University of Virginia, Special Collections Dept."],"repository_ssim":["University of Virginia, Special Collections Dept."],"geogname_ssm":["United States History Revolution, 1775-1783 Personal narratives"],"geogname_ssim":["United States History Revolution, 1775-1783 Personal narratives"],"creator_ssm":["Taylor, John, 1753-1824"],"creator_ssim":["Taylor, John, 1753-1824"],"creator_persname_ssim":["Taylor, John, 1753-1824"],"creators_ssim":["Taylor, John, 1753-1824"],"places_ssim":["United States History Revolution, 1775-1783 Personal narratives"],"access_subjects_ssim":["Biography"],"access_subjects_ssm":["Biography"],"has_online_content_ssim":["false"],"extent_ssm":["0.24 Cubic Feet One legal size folder (one letter and two biographies) (existing collection) 23 folders in addition"],"extent_tesim":["0.24 Cubic Feet One legal size folder (one letter and two biographies) (existing collection) 23 folders in addition"],"date_range_isim":[1777,1778,1779,1780,1781,1782,1783,1784,1785,1786,1787,1788,1789,1790,1791,1792,1793,1794],"accessrestrict_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThis collection is open for research.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eThis collection is open for research.\u003c/p\u003e"],"accessrestrict_heading_ssm":["Conditions Governing Access","Conditions Governing Access"],"accessrestrict_tesim":["This collection is open for research.","This collection is open for research."],"odd_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eContent Warning Note:\nThis collection contains racial imagery typical for the time that contemporary viewers may find offensive.\nThis material contains references or imagery involving racism.

Dabney III papers consist of manuscripts, notes,   transcripts, articles, reviews, personal journals, bibliographic sources, audio cassettes, and compact discs, relating primarily to his research on the life and works of Edmund Wilson, an American writer and critic in the twentieth century. In addition to copies and transcripts of Wilson's writing journals, there is correspondence across a large network of intimate relationships, friends, and acquaintances of Wilson. The relationships of particular historical importance include F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, John Dos Passos, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Mary McCarthy, W.H. Auden, André Malraux, Vladimir Nabokov, Ignazio Stone, and Isaiah Berlin. The audiocassetes contain interviews completed by Wilson or Dabney on Wilson. (Boxes 1-17) ","The collection also contains items related to a historical and literary study of William Faulkner's treatment of the Yoknapatawpha people in Faulkners' works. (Boxes 18-20). Included is the manuscript for Dabney's book,  The Indians of Yoknapatawpha .","Also included in the collection is an examination of the lifelong friendship between Dabney's mother, Crystal Ross, and the American novelist, John Dos Passos. Most of their correspondence takes place from 1922 to 1927, during the peak of their romantic relationship. (Boxes 21-22). The letters mention Dos Passos travels in Paris, New Orleans, Florida, Key West, Mexico, Russia, as well as his life in New York City and Brooklyn. Crystal Ross, from Lockhart, Texas was educated at the University of Texas, Columbia University, and received her doctorate in comparative literature through a scholarship at the University of Strasbourg in Alsace in 1925. The couple met at the funeral of their mutual friend Wright McCormick. The letters mention well known writers such as Ernest Hemingway (with Hadley Hemingway) and F. Scott Fitzgerald (and Zelda) as well as a description of their trip to Pamplona, Spain in 1924. Dos Passos was writing  Manhattan Transfer  during the time of their engagement. Excerpts from their unpublished letters have been released in a new book by Lewis Dabney,  Soulmates of the Lost Generation  published by his family and the University of Virginia Press on October 25, 2022.","\"The Inevitable Literary Biography: With the Usual Apologies to Arthur Symons, Holbrook Johnson, and Frank Harris\"\n\"How Akmen Amused the Princess: A Wonder Tale in Rhythmic Prose by Lord D-NS-NY\" April (fiction)\nEugene Brieux's \"Les Americains Chez Nous: A Review of a Much Talked about Play,\" May\n\"The Progress of Psychoanalysis,\" August\n\"The Gulf in American Literature: A Discussion of the Irreconcilable Breach between the Illiterates and the Illuminati,\" September\n\"Things I Consider Overrated: Some Popular Institutions Subjected to a Purely Destructive Criticism,\" October\n\"The Anarchists of Taste,\" October\n\"Things I Consider Overrated,\" second series, December","\"Things I Consider Underrated: Three Little Essays in Constructive Criticism,\" March\n\"The New Englander Abroad: With an Account of Nathaniel Hawthorne's Infidelity to the Venus di Medici,\" April\n\"The Oppressor,\" Found in: The Liberator (May) pp25-28 (short story)\n\"H.L.

Lee which he manually recorded in this memo book which he titled \"Conversations with Gen. R. E. Lee\". Soon after each conversation, Allan described retreating to his office to record the highlights. In 1886, former Washington College Clerk of faculty and Librarian, Edward Clifford \"E.C.\" Gordon shared with Allan, by mail, a similar manuscript reminiscence of a discussion he had with Lee in 1868 on the Sharpsburg/Antietam campaign, specifically the story of Lee's \"Lost Dispatch\". Allan transcribed Gordon's reminiscence into his memo book – with a background note. (Gordon's original reminiscence was then purportedly returned to him.) The memo book is accompanied by an informative 1886 letter from Gordon to Allan on the Lee conversations. There are also two letters regarding the gift of the memoranda book to Washington and Lee University in 1946 by Mrs. Louisa P. Allan, William Allan's daughter – in – law. Subjects of the conversations include Lee's objectives and strategy at different points during the American Civil War; Lee's decision to resign from the United States Army on April 20, 1861 including his conversations with U.S. Army General Winfield Scott; and commentary, at times critical, of Federal and Confederate generals and leaders including George McClellan, D.H. Hill, James Longstreet, Jefferson Davis, Richard Ewell, Thomas J. \"Stonewall\" Jackson, Joseph Johnston, J.E.B. Stuart, and John-Fitz Porter. Civil War battles mentioned or discussed include Antietam, Fredericksburg, Gaines Mill and the Seven Days Battles, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, and the fall of the defenses at Petersburg, Va.","Robert E. Lee's copy of D.H. Hill's post Civil War magazine \"The Land We Love,\" which published an article pertaining to the story of Lee's \"Lost Dispatch\" - an order by General Robert E. Lee directing movements of his Army of Northern Virginia during the Maryland Campaign of 1862. It was lost by an unidentified Confederate courier and found by Union soldiers and subsequently forwarded to Union General George B. McClellan. The contents of the dispatch influenced the battles of South Mountain and Antietam.","Letter from E.C.(Edward Clifford)Gordon, former Washington College Clerk of Faculty, to Col.

Lee on February 16, 1868. A main theme of the letter is the content from the memo book regarding the story of Lee's \"Lost Dispatch\" during his Maryland Campaign of 1862. \nThe second letter  accompanied the memo book when it was given by Louisa P. Allan, Col. William Allan's daughter - in - law,  to Washington and Lee University President Francis Pendleton Gaines in 1946.","Reminiscences of Robert E.

In 1886, former Washington College Clerk of faculty and Librarian, Edward Clifford \"E.C.\" Gordon shared with Allan, by mail, a similar manuscript reminiscence of a discussion he had with Lee in 1868 on the Sharpsburg/Antietam campaign, specifically the story of Lee's \"Lost Dispatch\". Allan transcribed Gordon's reminiscence into his memo book – with a background note. (Gordon's original reminiscence was then purportedly returned to him.) The memo book is accompanied by an informative 1886 letter from Gordon to Allan on the Lee conversations. There are also two letters regarding the gift of the memoranda book to Washington and Lee University in 1946 by Mrs. Louisa P. Allan, William Allan's daughter – in – law. Subjects of the conversations include Lee's objectives and strategy at different points during the American Civil War; Lee's decision to resign from the United States Army on April 20, 1861 including his conversations with U.S. Army General Winfield Scott; and commentary, at times critical, of Federal and Confederate generals and leaders including George McClellan, D.H. Hill, James Longstreet, Jefferson Davis, Richard Ewell, Thomas J. \"Stonewall\" Jackson, Joseph Johnston, J.E.B. Stuart, and John-Fitz Porter. Civil War battles mentioned or discussed include Antietam, Fredericksburg, Gaines Mill and the Seven Days Battles, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, and the fall of the defenses at Petersburg, Va.","Robert E. Lee's copy of D.H. Hill's post Civil War magazine \"The Land We Love,\" which published an article pertaining to the story of Lee's \"Lost Dispatch\" - an order by General Robert E. Lee directing movements of his Army of Northern Virginia during the Maryland Campaign of 1862. It was lost by an unidentified Confederate courier and found by Union soldiers and subsequently forwarded to Union General George B. McClellan. The contents of the dispatch influenced the battles of South Mountain and Antietam.","Letter from E.C.(Edward Clifford)Gordon, former Washington College Clerk of Faculty, to Col. William Allan of th eMcDonough institute in Baltimore, Md. and former mathematics professor at Washington College between 1866 and 1873 regarding an accompanying memo book in which Gordon documented a long conversation he had with Robert E. Lee on February 16, 1868. A main theme of the letter is the content from the memo book regarding the story of Lee's \"Lost Dispatch\" during his Maryland Campaign of 1862. \nThe second letter  accompanied the memo book when it was given by Louisa P. Allan, Col. William Allan's daughter - in - law,  to Washington and Lee University President Francis Pendleton Gaines in 1946.","Reminiscences of Robert E.
