Power of attorney from Samuel Burrows to Lewis B. Chandler
No full textThis document is a power of attorney dated November 1889, in which Samuel G. Burrows of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, appoints Lewis B. Chandler of Milton, Sussex County, Delaware, as his lawful attorney. Burrows authorizes Chandler to enter upon his property in Milton, then occupied by Peter J. Wilson or his heirs or assigns, and to seize, through the legal process of distress, any personal property found on the premises—including livestock, crops, furniture, and goods—as security for unpaid rent due as of the first day of an unspecified month in 1889. Chandler is also authorized to recover any such property that may have been removed from the premises within the previous 40 days. If the rent is not paid or the property replevied within the time required by law, Chandler is empowered to have the seized goods appraised and sold, and to dispose of the proceeds according to legal procedure. The document is signed by Samuel G. Burrows and witnessed by Louis Kempner

Lewis A. Coolidge letter to Warren G. Harding, December 28, 1920
No full textIn this letter dated December 28, 1920, Lewis A. Coolidge of Boston writes to President-elect Warren G. Harding to offer former Senator John W. Weeks as a candidate for Harding's cabinet. Coolidge supplies recommendations from colleagues, and mentions that no other Massachusetts Republican is more qualified for his cabinet than Weeks. He notes that the most successful secretaries of the Treasury have been those with previous service in Congress. Note: the first page of this letter is missing.
This letter is part of the Warren G. Harding Papers (MSS 345). This collection includes correspondence, business records, and other materials documenting Harding’s business career as owner and editor-in-chief of The Daily Marion Star, as well as the various stages of his political career. A significant portion of the collection, and what’s available on Ohio Memory, highlights his 1920 presidential campaign, spanning just before publicly announcing his candidacy to handily defeating Ohio Governor James M. Cox in the election. Correspondents include both Ohio and national businessmen, political figures, and ordinary citizens writing with questions, support, congratulatory notes, and campaign advice. Some of the most interesting insights into the tumultuous political climate in the U.S., the extreme factionalism within the Republican Party in Ohio, and Harding’s campaign strategies are described in letters between Harding and his campaign manager, Harry M. Daugherty. Some of the topics addressed include women’s suffrage, Prohibition, the League of Nations, African American representation and issues, and lingering peace negotiations following World War I
The agential fork : the hidden consequences of agency for plenitude in David Lewis' thesis of genuine modal realism
No full textIn this dissertation, I argue that David Lewis' abductive argument for Genuine Modal Realism (GMR) has the unwelcome, and hidden, implication of being unable to
accommodate agent causation theories of free will. This is because of his formulation of plenitude, which basically says that every way that a world or a part of a world could be is the way that some world, or part of some world is. This formulation tacitly assumes
that chance and nomological principles are sufficient to account for everything that happens at worlds. However, agent causation theories argue that free will is neither reducible to chance nor determined by physics. My argument recasts a fork argument made by Andrew Beedle. I proceed by arguing that chance-based principles evince an ontologically distinct kind of modality than agent causation principles. However,
plenitude only accounts for the physics/chance-based kind of modality. There is no similar principle of plenitude that can be given for agential modality that does not
collapse into the chance-based principle. But even if such a principle could be found, it would violate the doctrine in GMR that claims worlds are causally isolated. If no agential plenitude principle can be found and there is agential modality, then plenitude fails. If there is no agency at our world, and Lewis’ original formulation of plenitude is correct, then GMR implies no agency at any
world. This is the fork: If there is agency and GMR holds, then either plenitude fails, or isolation fails. But if there is no agency, and GMR holds, then there is no agency at any possible world. The latter prong is too strong a claim for an abductive argument like GMR. The
former proves that GMR cannot accommodate agent-causation theories. GMR loses its neutrality either way, to its detriment
