Armistead entered the University of Virginia and earned three degrees in rapid succession: BA in 1901, MA in 1902, and LLB in 1904. He left Charlottesville to practice law in St. Louis, Missouri, but returned to his alma mater in 1907 to teach law and to re-establish the close ties with the University which he would maintain the rest of his life. When Dobie joined the faculty, he assumed the teaching duties of Dean William M. Lile, who was temporarily absent due to ill health. Lile returned, and Dobie remained on the faculty, becoming a full professor in 1909.","World War I claimed Dobie's service in 1917. He was commissioned a captain in the US Army and became an aide to General Adelbert Cronkhite, with whom he went to France. Before the war was over, Dobie was promoted to major and was made assistant to the chief of staff of the 80th Infantry Division. He was recommended for the Distinguished Service Order (DSO), and the French honored him by making him an Officier of the Order of Academic Palms.","After the war was over, Dobie returned to Charlottesville, but instead of teaching, he served for a year as the executive director of the University's drive for the Centennial Endowment Fund. The following year, Dobie went to Harvard Law School and began work on an SJD. In the summer of 1922, Dobie studied at Columbia's graduate school of jurisprudence, returning to Charlottesville in time to begin the fall term.","At the time Dobie joined the faculty, the Law School program increased from a mandatory two to three years. Dobie taught three required courses --criminal law, federal procedure, and probate and administration- - and six electives --Roman law, master and servant, carriers and bailments, code pleading, public officers, and taxation and tax titles. Upon his return from Harvard, Dobie began employing the case method. Young faculty members followed Dobie's lead. With Dean Lile's retirement in 1932, Dobie was appointed dean of the Law School and served in that position until 1939, although ill health in 1936 caused him to relinquish the dean's duties for year or so.","Armistead Dobie wrote a definitive work on the law of bailments and carriers, a widely respected casebook, and several treatises on federal jurisdiction and procedure, and numerous articles for the Virginia, Harvard, and Yale law reviews. In the mid-1930's he was appointed special assistant to the US Attorney General, and served for over twenty years. He also served as legal advisor to the Conflict of Laws Section of the American Law Institute, and was appointed by the US Supreme Court to a committee of fourteen to make procedure in federal districts courts uniform nationwide.","In May of 1939, President Franklin D. Roosevelt offered Dobie the newly created judgeship on the US District Court for the Western District of Virginia, with the promise that he might move to the Fourth Circuit when vacancy occurred. Dobie accepted. True to his word, Roosevelt appointed him to the Fourth Circuit Court only six months later.","From early in 1940 until the first of February 1956, Armistead Dobie served on the Fourth Circuit Court with Senior Judges John J. Parker and Morris A. Soper. Dobie heard almost 1400 cases during his sixteen years on the Circuit Court bench, and wrote over 450 opinions; he dissented from his colleagues on six occasions, and was upheld by the Supreme Court in four of those opinions.","The most historically significant cases Dobie heard were those involving school segregation. The decisions he helped reach on these cases reflected his firm belief that African Americans should have facilities as nearly equal to whites as possible, and his reluctance or disinclination to go against the segregation pattern established by Plessy v. Ferguson.","Judge Dobie officially retired from the bench on the first of February 1956 in poor health. After many months of complete rest, he recovered somewhat, and on 18 July 1958, he married a long-time Charlottesville friend, Rita Elizabeth McKenny. He lived out the rest of his life at their home in Charlottesville, dying at 81 on 8 August 1962.","The papers of Armistead M.

There are few notes and drafts or copies of the opinions he wrote. There are several folders on the Davis v.

The cases are arranged chronologically, and are followed by a box containing the dockets for the Fourth Circuit from 1948 to 1956.","Box fifteen also contains notebooks regarding the work of the US Supreme Court Advisory Committee on Rules of Civil Procedure, and of a committee studying the jury system.","There are no restrictions.","Arthur J.

Armistead entered the University of Virginia and earned three degrees in rapid succession: BA in 1901, MA in 1902, and LLB in 1904. He left Charlottesville to practice law in St. Louis, Missouri, but returned to his alma mater in 1907 to teach law and to re-establish the close ties with the University which he would maintain the rest of his life. When Dobie joined the faculty, he assumed the teaching duties of Dean William M. Lile, who was temporarily absent due to ill health. Lile returned, and Dobie remained on the faculty, becoming a full professor in 1909.","World War I claimed Dobie's service in 1917. He was commissioned a captain in the US Army and became an aide to General Adelbert Cronkhite, with whom he went to France. Before the war was over, Dobie was promoted to major and was made assistant to the chief of staff of the 80th Infantry Division. He was recommended for the Distinguished Service Order (DSO), and the French honored him by making him an Officier of the Order of Academic Palms.","After the war was over, Dobie returned to Charlottesville, but instead of teaching, he served for a year as the executive director of the University's drive for the Centennial Endowment Fund. The following year, Dobie went to Harvard Law School and began work on an SJD. In the summer of 1922, Dobie studied at Columbia's graduate school of jurisprudence, returning to Charlottesville in time to begin the fall term.","At the time Dobie joined the faculty, the Law School program increased from a mandatory two to three years. Dobie taught three required courses --criminal law, federal procedure, and probate and administration- - and six electives --Roman law, master and servant, carriers and bailments, code pleading, public officers, and taxation and tax titles. Upon his return from Harvard, Dobie began employing the case method. Young faculty members followed Dobie's lead. With Dean Lile's retirement in 1932, Dobie was appointed dean of the Law School and served in that position until 1939, although ill health in 1936 caused him to relinquish the dean's duties for year or so.","Armistead Dobie wrote a definitive work on the law of bailments and carriers, a widely respected casebook, and several treatises on federal jurisdiction and procedure, and numerous articles for the Virginia, Harvard, and Yale law reviews. In the mid-1930's he was appointed special assistant to the US Attorney General, and served for over twenty years. He also served as legal advisor to the Conflict of Laws Section of the American Law Institute, and was appointed by the US Supreme Court to a committee of fourteen to make procedure in federal districts courts uniform nationwide.","In May of 1939, President Franklin D. Roosevelt offered Dobie the newly created judgeship on the US District Court for the Western District of Virginia, with the promise that he might move to the Fourth Circuit when vacancy occurred. Dobie accepted. True to his word, Roosevelt appointed him to the Fourth Circuit Court only six months later.","From early in 1940 until the first of February 1956, Armistead Dobie served on the Fourth Circuit Court with Senior Judges John J. Parker and Morris A. Soper. Dobie heard almost 1400 cases during his sixteen years on the Circuit Court bench, and wrote over 450 opinions; he dissented from his colleagues on six occasions, and was upheld by the Supreme Court in four of those opinions.","The most historically significant cases Dobie heard were those involving school segregation. The decisions he helped reach on these cases reflected his firm belief that African Americans should have facilities as nearly equal to whites as possible, and his reluctance or disinclination to go against the segregation pattern established by Plessy v. Ferguson.","Judge Dobie officially retired from the bench on the first of February 1956 in poor health. After many months of complete rest, he recovered somewhat, and on 18 July 1958, he married a long-time Charlottesville friend, Rita Elizabeth McKenny. He lived out the rest of his life at their home in Charlottesville, dying at 81 on 8 August 1962.","The papers of Armistead M. Dobie span the years 1902 to 1963, with the bulk of the material covering 1939 to 1956, the years of Dobie's judgeship. The first three boxes contain general correspondence, which is primarily of biographical interest, although there are some items, especially the 1939 letters from President Franklin D. Roosevelt, and senators Carter Glass and Harry F. Byrd, that have historical value. The correspondence with Judges John J. Parker and Morris A. Soper in the general files, as well as in the court materials, yield very little information about the cases the three were considering. Other correspondents who wrote Dobie one or two letters of interest were Felix Frankfurter, Stanley Reed, Roscoe Pound, Samuel Williston, Manton Davis, and many former University classmates and students. The general correspondence files were kept alphabetically by correspondent's name or, occasionally, by subject, and within the alphabetical division the correspondence is arranged chronologically. Following the correspondence are four notebooks of mimeographed \"textbooks\" from Dobie's graduate studies at Harvard and teaching at Virginia in the 1920s.","Boxes four and five contain drafts of speeches arranged alphabetically by title or subject. Boxes six through fifteen contain court materials that include records, briefs, and correspondence for a small percentage of the cases Dobie heard. There are few notes and drafts or copies of the opinions he wrote. There are several folders on the Davis v. County School Board of Prince Edward for both the 1951 and 1955 hearings; also of interest is Judge Waties Waring's dissenting opinion on the Davis \"sister\" case, Briggs v. Elliott. The cases are arranged chronologically, and are followed by a box containing the dockets for the Fourth Circuit from 1948 to 1956.","Box fifteen also contains notebooks regarding the work of the US Supreme Court Advisory Committee on Rules of Civil Procedure, and of a committee studying the jury system.","There are no restrictions.","Arthur J.

The family later lived in Fredericksburg, where Rev. Ribble was head of the Bishop Payne Divinity School, a segregated seminary for African Americans. Deane had a brother, John, killed in World War II, and four sisters, Mildred, Elsie, Carolina, and Frances. In December of 1940 he married Mary Mason Anderson of Richmond, and they had one son, Frederick Goodwin, who lives in Charlottesville.","After receiving a BA from the College of William and Mary in 1916, he came to the University of Virginia where he earned an MA in 1917 and an LLB in 1921. Later in that year he became the youngest member of the law faculty at Virginia, and was promoted to full professor by 1927. After receiving an SJD from Columbia in 1937, he was asked to become dean of the Law School at the University of Missouri, but he decided to return to Charlottesville and continued teaching full-time at the Law School until 1937 when he became acting dean. He assumed the position of dean in 1939, and remained in that job until 1963. Although his wife died in 1964, he continued living in Pavilion X, their home of twenty-five years, and taught one or two law classes each year until he retired in 1966. Deane Ribble died December 3, 1970.","During the years that Ribble was dean, the Law School underwent tremendous change. In the thick of World War II, enrollment plummeted to forty students: \"...about one-fourth women, some few persons in the Navy...and a goodly collection of 4 F's,\" as he described it. Only a handful of faculty members remained in Charlottesville, since many of them, Ribble included, served either on active duty or in civilian war-time jobs. One of Ribble's primary endeavors after the war was to provide a transition program for veterans whose legal education had been interrupted. The Law School began offering courses year-round to accommodate them. At the same time, he worked to attract and retain outstanding scholars on the faculty by making salaries competitive. Soon thereafter, he began planning for the enlargement of Clark Hall and the expansion of the library holdings. In 1951-52 the Law School Foundation was established with Ribble's guidance, as well as that of alumni Walter Brown and Joseph Hartfield. By the time Ribble left the deanship, the Law School's enrollment had doubled.","A respected constitutional law scholar, Ribble taught that subject, as well as real property, and public utilities. In addition to numerous law review articles, his publications included State and National Power over Commerce in 1937, and the second edition of Minor on Real Property in 1946. In addition, Ribble was involved in a number of extracurricular professional activities. In 1924 he received a presidential appointment as alternate member to the Board of Appeals in Visa Cases. While serving as dean of the Law School part-time, he also worked in Washington helping the Board with its enormous backlog of cases from World War I. In 1944, he took leave of absence from the Law School and became a full member of the Board. From 1946 to 1951, he was on the US Commission for UNESCO and was a delegate to the UNESCO conferences in Beirut, 1948, and Paris, 1951. He also represented the United States at the 1950 Conference on Freedom of Information in Geneva.","Ribble was a strong advocate of civil rights and worked actively for the cause in the 1960s. He was especially disturbed by the closing of Prince Edward County's public schools and helped form the Free School Association, which provided catch-up education for Black children during the last school year (1963-1964) in which the public schools were closed. This successful program, for which Ribble was treasurer, was funded by donations from all over the country and supported by the office of  the US attorney general, Robert F. Kennedy, a former student of Ribble.","He was secretary-treasurer of the Association of American Law Schools in 1948-1950 and president in 1951. During the 1950s and 1960s, he was a member of the American Bar Association's Section of Legal Education, serving as chair in 1961-1962. In 1955-1956 he served as president of the Virginia State Bar Association. He was awarded honorary degrees from Washington and Lee University in 1949, the College of William and Mary in 1952, and Northwestern University in 1960.\n  \nRibble died in 1970 at the age of 72.","The Frederick D. G. Ribble papers document his years as professor and dean at the University of Virginia Law School, his service on professional boards and committees, the legal cases in which he was directly involved or interested, and, to a limited extent, his personal life before his marriage.","The first series (13 boxes) is comprised of files found in one cabinet and spans 1920 to 1947; the second series (17 boxes) from the other cabinet overlaps Series I chronologically, covering 1941 to 1965. Ribble did the filing for the first series, and his secretary for the second. Series III (1 box), material once interfiled in the Dean's Papers, contains primarily personal correspondence, 1923-1960.","Much of Series I concerns Ribble's teaching: notes and clippings regarding cases, students' papers that he saved, copies of exams, and some correspondence and documents relating to subjects he taught. The most substantive of these files are constitutional law, commerce, and real property, major areas of interest to Ribble in the 1920s and 1930s. There is a good deal of correspondence and other material on the post-war years of growth at the Law School, as well as on the educational problems of returning veterans. A transition program was a major concern to Ribble, and he communicated with many prominent people in legal education with regard to it. Near the end of Series I there is a substantial collection of material from Ribble's years on the Board of Appeals in Visa Cases. Finally, there are some personal letters from his family, as well as what appear to be most of his personal financial papers from the 1920s and 1930s.","Series II has very little Law School or personal material, but instead is made up of papers generated by Ribble's extracurricular interests and involvement. Civil rights and related subjects are predominant in this series, including notes and clippings on the Gray Commission's Report, files on the Prince Edward Free School Association, materials on literacy tests, law enforcement, the Fred Wallace case, the Gray Commission, freedom of speech and association, and civil unrest. There is a large body of correspondence and reports relating to Ribble's work on the American Bar Association's Section on Legal Education. In addition, there is evidence of his contributions to such efforts as the China Legal Education Committee, the Permanent Committee of the Oliver Wendell Holmes Devise, of which he was a member, the restoration of the East Lawn Gardens of the University, UNESCO, the United Negro College Fund, and the Virginia State Bar Association. Finally, there are extensive records from seminars on constitutional law and professional ethics that he taught just before retirement. As in earlier days, he saved notes, class papers, exams, etc., from the classes.","Series III, personal correspondence, has a few topical folders, but is otherwise arranged chronologically.","There are materials in this collection that may be protected by US copyright law, and their reproduction may be restricted.","Arthur J.

G. \"Deane\" Ribble was born on 14 January 1898, in Culpeper, Virginia, to Carolina Stribling Marshall, granddaughter of John Marshall, and Frederick Goodwin Ribble, an Episcopal minister. The family later lived in Fredericksburg, where Rev. Ribble was head of the Bishop Payne Divinity School, a segregated seminary for African Americans. Deane had a brother, John, killed in World War II, and four sisters, Mildred, Elsie, Carolina, and Frances. In December of 1940 he married Mary Mason Anderson of Richmond, and they had one son, Frederick Goodwin, who lives in Charlottesville.","After receiving a BA from the College of William and Mary in 1916, he came to the University of Virginia where he earned an MA in 1917 and an LLB in 1921. Later in that year he became the youngest member of the law faculty at Virginia, and was promoted to full professor by 1927. After receiving an SJD from Columbia in 1937, he was asked to become dean of the Law School at the University of Missouri, but he decided to return to Charlottesville and continued teaching full-time at the Law School until 1937 when he became acting dean. He assumed the position of dean in 1939, and remained in that job until 1963. Although his wife died in 1964, he continued living in Pavilion X, their home of twenty-five years, and taught one or two law classes each year until he retired in 1966. Deane Ribble died December 3, 1970.","During the years that Ribble was dean, the Law School underwent tremendous change. In the thick of World War II, enrollment plummeted to forty students: \"...about one-fourth women, some few persons in the Navy...and a goodly collection of 4 F's,\" as he described it. Only a handful of faculty members remained in Charlottesville, since many of them, Ribble included, served either on active duty or in civilian war-time jobs. One of Ribble's primary endeavors after the war was to provide a transition program for veterans whose legal education had been interrupted. The Law School began offering courses year-round to accommodate them. At the same time, he worked to attract and retain outstanding scholars on the faculty by making salaries competitive. Soon thereafter, he began planning for the enlargement of Clark Hall and the expansion of the library holdings. In 1951-52 the Law School Foundation was established with Ribble's guidance, as well as that of alumni Walter Brown and Joseph Hartfield. By the time Ribble left the deanship, the Law School's enrollment had doubled.","A respected constitutional law scholar, Ribble taught that subject, as well as real property, and public utilities. In addition to numerous law review articles, his publications included State and National Power over Commerce in 1937, and the second edition of Minor on Real Property in 1946. In addition, Ribble was involved in a number of extracurricular professional activities. In 1924 he received a presidential appointment as alternate member to the Board of Appeals in Visa Cases. While serving as dean of the Law School part-time, he also worked in Washington helping the Board with its enormous backlog of cases from World War I. In 1944, he took leave of absence from the Law School and became a full member of the Board. From 1946 to 1951, he was on the US Commission for UNESCO and was a delegate to the UNESCO conferences in Beirut, 1948, and Paris, 1951. He also represented the United States at the 1950 Conference on Freedom of Information in Geneva.","Ribble was a strong advocate of civil rights and worked actively for the cause in the 1960s. He was especially disturbed by the closing of Prince Edward County's public schools and helped form the Free School Association, which provided catch-up education for Black children during the last school year (1963-1964) in which the public schools were closed. This successful program, for which Ribble was treasurer, was funded by donations from all over the country and supported by the office of  the US attorney general, Robert F. Kennedy, a former student of Ribble.","He was secretary-treasurer of the Association of American Law Schools in 1948-1950 and president in 1951. During the 1950s and 1960s, he was a member of the American Bar Association's Section of Legal Education, serving as chair in 1961-1962. In 1955-1956 he served as president of the Virginia State Bar Association. He was awarded honorary degrees from Washington and Lee University in 1949, the College of William and Mary in 1952, and Northwestern University in 1960.\n  \nRibble died in 1970 at the age of 72.","The Frederick D. G. Ribble papers document his years as professor and dean at the University of Virginia Law School, his service on professional boards and committees, the legal cases in which he was directly involved or interested, and, to a limited extent, his personal life before his marriage.","The first series (13 boxes) is comprised of files found in one cabinet and spans 1920 to 1947; the second series (17 boxes) from the other cabinet overlaps Series I chronologically, covering 1941 to 1965. Ribble did the filing for the first series, and his secretary for the second. Series III (1 box), material once interfiled in the Dean's Papers, contains primarily personal correspondence, 1923-1960.","Much of Series I concerns Ribble's teaching: notes and clippings regarding cases, students' papers that he saved, copies of exams, and some correspondence and documents relating to subjects he taught. The most substantive of these files are constitutional law, commerce, and real property, major areas of interest to Ribble in the 1920s and 1930s. There is a good deal of correspondence and other material on the post-war years of growth at the Law School, as well as on the educational problems of returning veterans. A transition program was a major concern to Ribble, and he communicated with many prominent people in legal education with regard to it. Near the end of Series I there is a substantial collection of material from Ribble's years on the Board of Appeals in Visa Cases. Finally, there are some personal letters from his family, as well as what appear to be most of his personal financial papers from the 1920s and 1930s.","Series II has very little Law School or personal material, but instead is made up of papers generated by Ribble's extracurricular interests and involvement. Civil rights and related subjects are predominant in this series, including notes and clippings on the Gray Commission's Report, files on the Prince Edward Free School Association, materials on literacy tests, law enforcement, the Fred Wallace case, the Gray Commission, freedom of speech and association, and civil unrest. There is a large body of correspondence and reports relating to Ribble's work on the American Bar Association's Section on Legal Education. In addition, there is evidence of his contributions to such efforts as the China Legal Education Committee, the Permanent Committee of the Oliver Wendell Holmes Devise, of which he was a member, the restoration of the East Lawn Gardens of the University, UNESCO, the United Negro College Fund, and the Virginia State Bar Association. Finally, there are extensive records from seminars on constitutional law and professional ethics that he taught just before retirement. As in earlier days, he saved notes, class papers, exams, etc., from the classes.","Series III, personal correspondence, has a few topical folders, but is otherwise arranged chronologically.","There are materials in this collection that may be protected by US copyright law, and their reproduction may be restricted.","Arthur J.
