18393269Natchez Ms. 1839. Very good. Broadside 13 x 15.75 inches. Printed in four columns; central vertical fold. Light wear and toning. In the present broadside the trustees of Jefferson College announce that they are once again prepared to admit students in 1839 following a reorganization and give their mission statement courses of study faculty list tuition fees and more. The school located in Washington Mississippi just north of Natchez opened in 1811 and was the first college in the Mississippi Territory. In the text of this broadside one can clearly see sentiments and dispositions that would bring the Civil War to fruition. The first two columns are chiefly dedicated to a description fo the new faculty and their skills but also new measures put in place during the reorganization of the school. In place of gymnastics a daily military drill was substituted and a military police was to be established "for the preservation of good order and regularity."<br /> <br /> The remainder of the broadside descends into sectional paranoia arguing that students must be kept close to home in order for them to maintain allegiance to Mississippi and the South: "At this very moment a formidable content has commenced between the North and the South from the possible results of which the eye of the patriot instantly revolts. It surely becomes us to preserve our children from any influence that might mislead their judgment or weaken their patriotism. To do this effectually we must keep them at home!. Send your sons to other States where they are relased from social bonds you not only cut off these powerful incentives to emulation but you do more and worse you weaken or detach the growing virtues of the heart. and you estrange them from their native land."<br /> <br /> OCLC locates only a small handful of examples. unknown

A prospectus for Jefferson College providing course information and names of professors most notably Jacob Ammen who was a West Pointer teacher of military engineering and eventually lieutenant colonel in the 12th Ohio Volunteers under McClellan. A key point is the argument that the local boys must be kept close to home and away from the evil influence of the abolitionists of the North. Wales writes: <br> <br> "At this very moment a formidable contest has commenced between North and South from the possible results of which the eye of the patriot instinctively revolts.it surely becomes us to preserve our children from any influence that might mislead their judgement or weaken their patriotism. To do this effectively WE MUST KEEP THEM AT HOME!" <br> <br> Good evidence of defending regional education in the antebellum South.

1900177661900. Early African American PHOTOGRAPHY -- RELIGION. silver gelatin photograph of a river baptism featuring a large group of African American subjects. Mississippi ca early 1900s. Photograph size is 2 1/4 x 2 1/4 in. Original silver gelatin photograph on cardstock mount .A young African American man wearing a hat and suit stands with his back to the camera we see in the foreground on the riverbank a group of African American subjects in light clothing close to the water's edge. A large ship is just visible beyond the dock in the background. Pencil inscription on verso reads "Miss- Colored Baptizing." 9Not: Historical records are evidence of the time in which they were created and often contain language are racist or derogatory and insensitive. This content does not reflect our values. These type of baptism on the banks of the Mississippi River were a public ceremony that attracted many converts in the South to the Delta region. Predominately African American Baptists performed their sacred ritual of outdoor baptisms on the Mississippi River until well into the 20th century in this Baptist-heavy state. Immersion baptisms typically took place in rivers or other natural bodies of water and summer and fall were the natural seasons for these congregational events. This rare photo captures a religious practice that has been integral to African-American Baptists for centuries. Photo has some toning surface soiling spotting and very small tear to right edge. But is still clear and in good to very good condition. unknown
