ARCHIVE OF MATERIAL ON THE 1962 BATTLE OF OXFORD MISSISSIPPI - INCLUDING AN UNPUBLISHED ACCOUNT OF THE RIOTS BY AN OLE MISS PROFESSOR

1282914A small group of material relating to the October 1962 riots at the University of Mississippi following the enrollment of the school's first Black student James H. Meredith. The highlight of this collection is a copy of the book INTEGRATION AT OLE MISS by Russell Barrett which is annotated by Ole Miss professor William B. Keith. Included is a xerox copy of an unpublished two-page typed letter by Keith detailing his experiences during the riot. The letter is addressed to his close friend Don Davis a high school history teacher and principal in Ohio. In the letter Keith recalls the trepidation of not knowing how Gov. Barnett would respond the the Federal government forcing the issue of desegregation at Ole Miss; his recollection of the Sept. 30 Ole Miss football game; and the subsequent beginning of the riots the following day. Keith and a friend then graduate students at Ole Miss went over the Lyceum where students were gathering. He notes there are actually pictures of him in the crowd included in the Barrett book and that he has marked them. He was still in the crowd when the first volley of tear gas was fired into the crowd. A State Patrol officer next to him was struck in the head and Keith and a Miss. patrolman carried the officer to safety. It then occurred to Keith to go over to the biology building to lock up the dangerous acids kept there a smart move as rioters did break into the building to search for flammable acids. His account then ends as he watched the rest of the action on television. The letter is included in a copy of Russell Barrett's Integration at Ole Miss Chicago: 1965 1st ed which is inscribed from the author to Don Davis the recipient of Keith's letter. Also included is a two-page ALS from Keith to Davis discussing hopes they can visit soon. Keith became a long-time Professor of Biology at Ole Miss until his death in 2007. The whereabouts of the original of the letter if it still exists are unknown. Also included: James W. Silver. Mississippi: The Closed Society NY: Harcourt Brace 1964. Inscribed to Davis by Bill Keith along with an original one-page typed letter signed from Keith to Davis. James W. Silver. Running Scared: Silver in Mississippi. Inscribed from Keith to Davis. A four-page typed document which was distributed on the Ole Miss campus in late Sept. 1962 by the school's Board of Trustees. The first page is a statement from the Trustees that they are complying with the Federal Court order to enroll James Meredith. The remaining three pages are a copy of the official court order. The document is is signed by Wm. B. Keith on the first page. unknown

Parecbolae Sive Excerpta E Corpore Statutorum Universitatis Oxoniensis. With an Appendix on the Statutes of the Bodleian Library: "Statuta Bibliotheca Bodleiana 1610" / Includes also in english at the rear: Oath of Allegiance / Oath of Supremacy / Oath at the Matriculation of a Scholar / Oath at the Matriculation of a Privileged Person.

180829870AB1808. Oxford E Typographeo Clarendoniano 1808. Small - Octavo. 13 267 1 pages. Hardcover / Original full calf. Excellent condition with some minor signs of wear only. From the library of Daniel Conner Connerville / Manch House with his Exlibris / Bookplate falsely applied upside down to rear pastedown. This 1808-version of the Statutes of Oxford University is citing the important change of Statutes of 1610 in which it was decided between the Bodleian and the "Stationer's Company": "to provide a copy of all books printed to the Bodleian and in 1610 Bodley made an agreement with the company to put a copy of every book registered with them in the library". This resulted in the Bodleian collection growing "so fast that the building was expanded between 16101612 known as the Arts End and again in 16341637. When John Selden died in 1654 he left the Bodleian his large collection of books and manuscripts. The later addition to Duke Humfrey's Library continues to be known as the "Selden End"." Wikipedia The Bodleian Library is the main research library of the University of Oxford and is one of the oldest libraries in Europe and derives its name from its founder Sir Thomas Bodley. With over 13 million printed items it is the second-largest library in Britain after the British Library. Under the Legal Deposit Libraries Act 2003 it is one of six legal deposit libraries for works published in the United Kingdom and under Irish law it is entitled to request a copy of each book published in the Republic of Ireland. Known to Oxford scholars as "Bodley" or "the Bod" it operates principally as a reference library and in general documents may not be removed from the reading rooms. In 2000 a number of libraries within the University of Oxford were brought together for administrative purposes under the aegis of what was initially known as Oxford University Library Services OULS and since 2010 as the Bodleian Libraries of which the Bodleian Library is the largest component. All colleges of the University of Oxford have their own libraries which in a number of cases were established well before the foundation of the Bodleian and all of which remain entirely independent of the Bodleian. They do however participate in SOLO Search Oxford Libraries Online the Bodleian Libraries' online union catalogue. Much of the library's archives were digitized and put online for public access in 2015. Wikipedia hardcover
