ITS NEWSPAPERS BY EDWARD A. HENRY Colonel Reuben T. Durrett was born January 24, 1824, and lived to the ripe age of eighty-nine years. He graduated from Georgetown (Kentucky) College in 1846, from Brown University in 1849, and from the Law De- partment of the University of Louisville in 1850, and at once entered upon the practice of his profession, in which he early attained an eminence that brought him wealth and fame and honor. In 1857 he bought a half interest in the Louisville Courier and for two years was its editor-in-chief. Always a writer of much ability, this two years' experience seems to have given him a special interest in newspapers, a large collection of which is found in his library. This library seems to be the growth of many years of careful collecting. His avowed purpose was to secure everything ever printed in Kentucky or about Kentucky, written by a Kentuckian or about a Kentuckian. The library was purchased by the University of Chicago only a few months before his death. As it reached our campus it consisted of one series of boxes numbered from 1 to 269, another series lettered from A to R, four portraits, and one large wall map. Recognizing the importance of this material, the trustees of the University appro- priated special funds for the organization of a special department in the library to prepare these materials for the shelves. The facts presented in this paper are almost literally "chips from the workshop" in which this work is being done. At the present time, June i, 19 14, all the lettered boxes and forty-nine of the numbered boxes have been opened- In these forty-nine boxes has been found a large collection of books on Kentucky and Virginia, including probably the best file of journals of the Ken- tucky General Assembly and collected legislative docu- ments in existence. We have copies of almost all the early books of travel and description which touch upon Kentucky, all the early histories and many other valu- able works which must wait until a later time for descrip- tion. The lettered boxes contained the newspapers and manuscripts. The manuscripts are just being arranged and plans for preserving them in permanent form are being formulated. Any detailed description of them must come at a later time. In this paper we are con- cerned with the newspapers, all of which have been handled, unless, perchance, we come across stray volumes in boxes yet to be opened. The newspaper collection was a huge mass when we got it together in the office. Many volumes had been bound years ago and the bindings were rotting away. There were dozens of volumes containing many titles and many huge portfolios full of loose papers. The first task was to get all papers of the same title together. This required the taking apart of all the composite volumes. Then we began binding the older papers first. At this date one hundred volumes have been returned by the binder and the balance of the collection is in the bindery. All will be upon our shelves by October i, if not before. Our method of binding is worthy of a word of descrip- tion. Each paper is moistened, smoothed out, and re- paired. All clipped places and torn corners are replaced with strong parchment paper. All tears, holes, and weak folds are covered with a strong silk gauze which is almost invisible once it is pasted down. The paper is then folded and attached to a sheet of strong manila paper which is half an inch wider and one inch longer than the newspaper. These manila sheets, carrying the papers, are then sewed to broad tapes which are glued between two thick cover boards, making an unusually strong cover and hinge. When there are fewer than ten num- bers of a title, the titles are gathered into related groups and bound together. We have some twenty such com- posite volumes bearing such titles as: Maryland Newspapers before 1820. Mscl. Virginia Newspapers before 1820. Mscl. Louisville Evening Newspapers. Mscl. Louisville German Newspapers. Mscl. All other volumes contain but a single title. When there are more than ten numbers but fewer than twenty the cover boards are covered with mottled paper and given a black cloth back. When there are more than twenty numbers the boards are covered with a three-quarters canvas binding. We are confident that these splendid canvas bindings will stand usage equal to the best leather and will continue clean and strong long years after leather would have disintegrated and fallen apart. The user of these volumes will find in each a type- written title-page giving a complete list of all papers in the volume and in most' cases a brief history of the paper. In turning through the volume his fingers touch only the projecting manila sheets, except when he pauses to examine a paper closely, thus reducing wear and tear upon the papers themselves and insuring to them the longest possible life consistent with use. The oldest title in the collection is the London Chronicle, London, England. A few numbers of Lloyd's Evening Post, London, and the American Eagle, Vera Cruz, Mexico, complete the list of foreign papers in the collection. Since nearly 90 per cent of all the papers are from Kentucky we will divide them for consideration into Kentucky newspapers and non-Kentucky newspapers. Of the non-Kentucky papers there are two titles from colonial days and fourteen others before 1800. The more important titles in this group are the Pittsburgh Gazette, the first newspaper established west of the Alle- ghanies, the Western Telegraphe and Washington Adver- tiser, Washington, Pa., the second paper in western Pennsylvania, the Knoxville Gazette, Knoxville, Tenn., and the Winchester Gazette of Winchester, Va. This latter, a complete file from January, 1799, to September, 1802, except three issues, is in excellent condition and we understand is a unique file which is duplicated nowhere. It is an ably edited paper and is a mine of rich informa- tion on this period. From the period between 1800 and 1820 we have Vol. I of the National Intelligencer and goodly representations of the Washington Federalist, the Weekly Aurora of Philadelphia, the Richmond Enquirer, Richmond, Va., and the Ohio Federalist of St. Clairsville, Ohio, a rare early abolition paper. There is a complete file of NUes's Register which begins in this period. The most important non-Kentucky file after 1820 is the Cincinnati Enquirer for the years 1861, 1862, and the last six months of 1863. A reference to the check-list of this collection will show that outside of Kentucky the collection is chiefly valuable for the number of titles it contains and the early dates of the papers that represent these titles. Many titles are represented by a single paper but that paper is so often Vol. I, No. 1 (or so near it that it is very easy to compute the date of beginning) that the collection is very important from the standpoint of the history of journalism, especially in the South. In Kentucky this rule is quite reversed. Files of, considerable length are the rule and single numbers the exception. Of the Kentucky Gazette, Lexington, Ky., the first newspaper established in the state, we have three large volumes, though the sequence is . considerably broken by missing numbers. Our oldest paper is Vol. I, No. 28, March 8, 1788. Of the second paper in the state, Stewart's Kentucky Herald, Lexington, we also have a fair representation. One of the more valuable files in the collection is a double one. In September, 1797, Hunter & Beaumont started at Washington, Kentucky, a paper known as the Mirror. A few months later Mr. Hunter went to Frankfort and established the Palla- dium. Shortly thereafter he sold his interest in the Mirror and bought Mr. Beaumont's interest in the Palladium. Thus the two papers, though not actually connected, really form a connected file. We have Mr. Hunter's own file of the two papers covering the period from 1797 to 1808 in most thorough fashion. We also have the Guardian of Freedom, the second paper estab- lished in Frankfort and antedating the Palladium by a few months. The first paper established in Louisville, the Farmer's Library or Ohio Intelligencer, is well repre- sented. The Kentucky Reporter, Lexington, 1810-31, the Western Citizen of Paris, the Argus of Frankfort, and the American Republic of Frankfort are files beginning between 1800 and 1820 which are worthy of notice. Another important file is that of the Presbyterian Herald of Louisville, 1846-62, complete except one year and two other papers. Slavery was too dangerous an issue for the ordinary daily press to handle. This religious paper made it a matter of conscience and so is a most valuable source of information upon the subject. The two greatest files in the collection are the Mays- ville Eagle and the Louisville Public Advertiser. The Eagle was established as a weekly which continued for fifteen years, when a semi-weekly was established and 6 the weekly continued for mail subscribers. Ten years later the semi-weekly was continued as a tri-weekly. Our file begins with Vol. IV, whole number 184, and con- tinues almost complete through the various changes to December, 1858, a file of thirty-five years in length. In addition we have several years of the weekly which ran parallel with the semi-weekly and tri-weekly papers. The other great file is that of the Louisville Public Adver- tiser. It was established June 30, 1818, by Shadrach Perm. It continued as a weekly only seven months, when it changed to a semi-weekly, which continued ten and a half years, when it was continued as a tri-weekly which lasted only four months, to December 31, 1829. The next morning, January 1, 1830, appeared the first daily paper ever printed in Kentucky. It continued both the volume numbers and whole numbers of the series of papers which had preceded it. Parallel with this semi-weekly and daily a weekly mailing edition was published, and during a part of the period of the daily a tri-weekly mailing edition was also published. We have an almost perfect file of this paper from Vol. I, No. 4 of the original weekly, July 21, 1818, to October, 1 84 1. In addition we have a large number of the weekly and tri-weekly mailing editions which ran parallel with the main paper. We only wish there were time here to narrate the long struggle which developed between this paper and the Louisville Journal, established Novem- ber 24, 1830, but the reader must look elsewhere for that story. Suffice it to say that it was one of the most bitterly 7 fought in newspaper history. Mr. Penn was finally defeated and forced to sell his paper and leave the city. His paper survived him only a few years. Mention of the Journal brings us to the one great weakness in the collection. Whether his connection with the Courier and the resulting duel with the editor of the Journal made Colonel Durrett dislike the Journal so much that he would not have it in his library or for some other reason, this, one of the greatest papers ever published in Kentucky, is represented by only a few scattered numbers. Of the various papers which were established in Louisville between 1830 and 1842, the period of the Penn-Prentice struggle, none lasted very long. We have almost complete files of all of them. Of the later papers we have the Courier for the years of Colonel Durrett's editorship, 1857-59, '* ne Democrat for the years 1862-64. One very interesting group of papers in the collection is that of campaign papers. As they are scattered through the check list under the various places of publi- cation we give the full list here. As gems of polemic, not to say invective, these papers are beyond comparison. The Patriot, Frankfort, 1826. New Court Party. The Spirit of '76, Frankfort, 1826. Old Court Party. The Campaign, Frankfort, 1840. The Campaign, Frankfort, 1844. The Whig Banner, Nashville, 1844. The Henry Clay Bugle, Maysville, 1844. The Republican Sentinel, Richmond, Va., 1844. The Tocsin, Frankfort, 1844. The Campaign, Washington, D.C., 1848. The Campaign Flag, Maysville, 1848. Rough and Ready, Louisville, 1848. With the close of the Civil War the newspaper files of the Durrett Collection close. Since that date there are only a few poultry and agricultural papers and one or two other odd titles. Two summaries will conclude this discussion. By titles, the resources of the collection are — OF KENTUCKY PAPERS Titles beginning before 1800 5 Titles beginning between 1800 and 1820 19 Titles beginning since 1820 111 Total Kentucky titles 135 OF NON-KENTUCKY PAPERS Titles beginning before 1800 16 Titles beginning between 1800 and 1820 56 Titles beginning since 1820 42 Total non-Kentucky titles 114 Grand total 249 In terms of volumes the collection consists of some 75 volumes of files beginning before 1820 and about 275 volumes of titles beginning since 1820. Of this total the 75 volumes of Niles's Register are duplicates and will be sold. All the others will go upon our shelves as rapidly as they are bound. 9 In making the check-list of these papers we have followed in general the principles laid down in the Check List of American Newspapers in the Library of Congress. Whenever our first copy of a title was early enough to throw light upon the establishment of the paper we have added the volume and number of the paper. When only whole numbers were used we have indicated that fact by the abbreviation "w.no." It will be noticed that a few periodicals are included in the list. They were packed with the papers and so handled with them and since we shall probably never publish a separate list of them they have been included here. There are many boxes of periodicals yet to be opened. A CHECK-LIST OF THE KENTUCKY NEWSPAPERS IN THE DURRETT COLLECTION.
