Much of the material has highly religious content which specifically references and deals with the Second Great Awakening a period of strong religious revival that took place in America during the first several decades of the 19th Century. </p><p> While it occurred in all parts of the United States the Second Great Awakening was especially strong in the Northeast and the Midwest. This religious awakening was unique in that it moved beyond the educated elite of New England to those who were less wealthy and less educated. The center of revivalism was the so-called Burned-over district in western New York the region produced dozens of new denominations communal societies and reform. The correspondents in this collection lived in towns in Massachusetts and Vermont that straddled the border of New York State. Closely related to the Second Great Awakening were other reform movements such as Temperance which is touched on in one letter.</p><p><b>Sample Quotes:</b></p><p><i>"Pittsfield Augt 29 1816</i></p><p><i>Mr. Eli Garlish</i></p><p><i>Sir</i></p><p><i>Mr. Casey informs me that you refuse to let him quarry on your land either as agent for Elisha Ely or myself. That you are abusive & threaten to use all legal & illegal methods in your power to prevent his working the Quarry.</i></p><p><i>A man possessing a Lordship of six or eight hundred acres of land ought in order to command respect to be a gentleman. At least he ought to be above pocketing $500 for a lease of part of his estate and then refuse the lease the right of occupying the premises agreeable to the tenor of the lease. And he further ought to be ashamed of pocketing a large sum for work done on the quarry & then in the face of & contrary to the tenor of his own instrument appropriate the Quarry to his own use and when called on for a settlement break out into a passion – go to a tavern quarrel with the hostler & swear that he 'will whip Ely like an honest man' – Believe me Mr. Garlish a man possessing a Lordship ought to hold such conduct in the utmost abhorrence for if such abuses were tolerated in the community the vilest wretch would have the same right to fall on & give you a bruising that you would have to assault another man – be assured that I lay no claims to the character of a bully or blackguard neither am I to be intimidated.</i></p><p><i>Get yourself cool my good friend. Lay your hand upon your heart call on your conscience follow the dictates of your better judgement & my head for it you will at once see the folly of your present proceedings and the necessity of a speedy adjustment with Casey who has full powers to act for Elisha Ely and also a settlement with me for you may rest assured that you are entangled in a web of your own manufacture & unless by honorable means you extricate yourself it will eventually prove very detrimental to your interest. I am &c. Alexander Ely"</i></p><p><i>"Lanesborough Jan the 11 1818</i></p><p><i>Dear Brother & Sister</i></p><p><i>I have been informed this evening that Mr. Stone is in the neighborhood tho it a late hour I will not fail of writing a few lines to inform you of the health of our friends. Father Norton's family are much as they were when brother left here except Sally who for five days was very feeble and I think rather lower that when you left here since that time she has been on the gaining hand but is not able to sit up much now. Isaac Smith fails very fast and today I have been informed that his mouth is very sore.</i></p><p><i>It has been a xxxxxx time amongst professors of Religion this fall and fore part of winter but for a few days past I am informed their attention has been called conferences have been very full and some that have been very careless and stupid are now enquiring to know what shall I do to be saved. Otis Smith came forward in conference a few evenings ago and made a very humble acknowledgement for his treatment of professors and asked their forgiveness and is wondering if Christians saw such a beauty in the character of xxxxxxx he now discovers why they never told him and I hope that he will be a bold soldier of the cross as was Paul the persecutor. And my dear Sister while I am informing you of the prosperity of Zion in Lanesborough me thinks I hear you anxiously enquiring after the little branch of Zion in Pittsfield it has been a dark and trying day amongst us in general since you left as but some seem to be more engaged of late and feel as tho God was about to visit us by his spirit. Today I have been to meeting and five of the sisters spoke and some if I am a judge really possessed the spirit of the meek and lowly Jesus. It reminded me of the milk's kin carrying the ark to its place. Affectionately yours Lucy Norton"</i></p><p><i>"Thursday April 3</i></p><p><i>Dear Sister</i></p><p><i>With acclamations of joy and songs of praise I would inform you the Lord is in this place and I think we may adopt the language of the Prophet great is the Holy one of Israel in the midst of thee. Mr. Ebenezer Squire came here yesterday to inform us they had such a meeting to Mr. L. Clarkes the night before as had not been in town for twenty years about forty or fifty people were assembled and no appearance of an idle spectator some were speaking forth the wonders of redeeming love others inquiring to know what they should do to be save not scarcely one but what had some thing to say. They have meetings every evening and Mr. S says there is not a family on the street but what there is more or less awakened in it this awaking has not appeared very visible until about a fortnight or three weeks and now Sister I suppose you may well think that by this time I am ready to ask the question why I should be confined when the day has come that I have so many years prayed for desired to have and at times believed would come yet I think I am truly say I rejoice in the government of that God that orders my trials and changes in life and believe will be my object of love and adoration in a boundless eternity.</i></p><p><i>Saturday April 5 Doctor Roberts came here yesterday to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord he said from Mr. Collins down to Pittsfield line there is fifteen or twenty hopefully converted within a week. The Doct. observed it and the Lord's doings and marvelous in his eyes and so marvelous that he scarcely could believe when he sees amongst those that have attend a hope Mr. Morrell Squire Rust Long and Betsey Smith Otis' wife and some three of Mr. L. Clarkes children Sully Squire in our neighborhood.</i></p><p><i>Sister you will at once discover from my different dates it is some time since I began to write and from my many pieces I know not when or where to stop I think I am some better but not able to be about</i></p><p><i>Adieu my much love Sister Sally Norton"</i></p><p><i>"Having had it on my mind time after time to sit down the texts of scripture which I have preached from it had my mind to set down the following which I began in the 18 years of my age the 12th day of April 1806.</i></p><p><i>I at this time attempt to set down some of my life passing through God's grace it may be for the honor of his cause and praying if it should ever fall into the hands of those that know not God they would consider as no man knows the things of a man but by the spirit of a man so no man knows the things of God but by the spirit of God and feeling myself a dying creature and believing when I quit this earthly tabernacle I shall praise God in nobler strains than here we can conceive of. I wish to do this is the fear of God hoping that it might be the means of doing good to his cause. I hope that I shall strive to not build up pride and paint it over to such the natural ear. But wishing to do it not knowing but it might fall into the hands of tempted lambs of Christ which are in the same way that God by his almighty grace has commanded me to go…"</i></p>
30944<p>Collection of 29 manuscript letters totaling 39 pages address panels mostly folio and quarto dating 1783-1791 to George Hale b. 1759 d. 1803 of Glastonbury Connecticut from various correspondents including Yale classmates writing to him at Glastonbury and for awhile Providence RI.

4981Various locations in the United States the Philippines Puerto Rico and others 1995. Very good. 290 original vernacular photographs some with manuscript captions measuring between 2.5 x 1.75 inches and 8 x 10 inches plus two partially-printed certificates completed in manuscript. Overall general wear. A unique collection of original vernacular photographs documenting the life and family of Rafael Ralph and Teresa Teresing Acosta Filipino immigrants to the United States in the mid-20th century. Ralph Sison Acosta 1917-1996 was born in Mangatarem in the Philippines. He is listed as the Filipino Third Mate on the manifest of a ship arriving in New York in 1940 having engaged the ship in Manila; this may represent Rafael's initial arrival in the United States. Later as evidenced by the present photographs he served as a personnel officer in the United States Army in the 1950s and beyond. Little is known about his wife Teresa Acosta 1917-2023. Both are buried at the Mount Olivet Catholic Cemetery in Wheat Ridge Colorado.<br /> <br /> The present collection of almost 300 photographs capture Rafael and Teresa their children relatives friends colleagues and others in a variety of settings in various locations over the course of several decades. Fifty-five of the images are captioned in ink in the front margins or on the verso; along with signage and other clues within the photographs the images were taken in Colorado Oregon Manila St. Thomas Puerto Rico Camp Atterbury and Fort Benjamin Harrison both in Indiana and likely other locations. The photographs seem to emanate from the various locations where Rafael was stationed during his long career in the Army. Interestingly among the annotated images a couple of the captions are written in the Filipino mother tongue of Tagalog. One small portrait of Teresa is inscribed by her to Rafael "Dearest Just a reminder that I love you and always will." Other annotated images identify people places situations and more important to the Acostas and their larger circle of family and friends.<br /> <br /> The other photographs most of which are not annotated include portraits of Ralph and his family at various ages plus images at home graduations family vacations portraits of family friends funerals and more. A group of about a dozen photos capture the Acosta family and some colleagues in Puerto Rico in 1956. A great deal of the images picture Ralph at work in the armed forces showing him as well as his colleagues at work posed outside barracks and other buildings and more. A handful of the images from 1967 are stamped on the verso as official photos of the U.S. Army's Rocky Mountain Arsenal in Denver. A vein of Catholicism runs through the photographs with images of churches church signs ceremonies a group shot with a priest and the like. One image of a ceremony inside a church is captioned: "Picture taken during the blessing ceremony of Sacred Heart of Jesus with all the spouses holding the ribbons from the crown of Jesus." These images stand to reason as the Acostas were Catholic themselves.<br /> <br /> In addition to the photographs the collection includes two certificates of appreciation from the Filipino American Community of Colorado -- one each given to Rafael and Teresa in 1995. The certificates acknowledge their "commitment and effort to support" the Filipino-American community in Colorado apparently where the Acostas retired once Rafael's military career was over. An excellent visual primary source collection memorializing the lives of a Filipino-American immigrant family whose patriarch served in the United States military in the decades following the Second World War. unknown
