    The letter bears the impression of a seal and a postmark. A notation on the verso reads, "Promiscuous letters."Stephenson writes to his brother Robert to coordinate an upcoming visit for business including John Woodhouse. He suggests that Robert take the "Telegraph Coach so that you shall arrive here early on Monday night" since George has to leave shortly for an appointment on Wednesday. The letter may have been written in connection to the George Stephenson\u27s work as a railway engineer; his brother and son worked with him in developing the first locomotive-building company in the world (Robert Stephenson & Company), headquartered in Newcastle. Robert Stephenson laid railways under George Stephenson\u27s direction, and later became the manager of the Pendleton Colliery

    Letter from Evan Stephenson to James B. Finley

    No full text
    Rev. Evan Stephenson (Stevenson) writes to Finley concerning his views on slavery and the Methodist Episcopal Church South. He is currently editor of a newspaper in Georgetown, KY. (Christian Intelligencer, Methodist version). Stevenson is extremely upset about the secession of the MEC South and its pro-slavery stance. He reports that he is determined to stay with the Methodist Episcopal Church, and refers to slavery as a scathing burning curse. He regrets that he ever witnessed the evil of slavery. Stevenson has come to the area to take care of the slaves owned by his recently deceased father. He is unable to free them until the debts of his father\u27s estate have been liquidated. [Note: Mentions Jane Taylor, aunt of his wife Lydia Boggs Stevenson]. Abstract Number - 809https://digitalcommons.owu.edu/finley-letters/2313/thumbnail.jp

    The "I. W. Stephenson" was built of wood at West Bay City, Michigan in 1895. She was of 639 gross tons. She was owned by I. Watson Stephenson, a lumberman of Marinette, Wisconsin. She carried lumber down from the northern lakes to Cleveland, Ohio and lower lake ports. She also carried pulpwood, paper and at times coal. She was later owned by Nessen Transportation Company of Chicago, Illinois and later bought by the Saginaw Bay Transportation Company and finally by William B. Boom of Cleveland. In 1935, she was allowed to settle to the bottom at Cleveland, where she was converted into a breakwater shelter for small craft. In 1946, a fire destroyed some of her upper works, but she continued to serve her purpose

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
