Excerpt from Historic Paxton, Her Days and Her Ways To belong to historic Old Paxton is a privilege that we of the Older generation realize. We are close enough to the first settlers that even yet our oldest church member can say, My father's father was one of Parson Elder's flock, and well recalled his boyish awe each Sabbath morn ing as the austere old man walked solemnly from the log 'retiring house' to the church, his fingers in his sermon book, his eyes fixed straight ahead, and no word or glance of greeting for the respect ful congregation gathered before the door to do him reverence.

Excerpt from Historic Paxton, Her Days and Her Ways Last summer one of the members of our Woman's Aid was in a quaint, century-old New England church, carefully preserved and held in deep reverence by the people because of its antiquity. "You do not seem very much impressed" said the guide. "It is most interesting" replied our loyal churchwoman, "but I go to a church back in Pennsylvania that is a hundred and seventy-three years old and whose people have made history." That was the beginning of this little book. To belong to historic old Paxton is a privilege that we of the older generation realize. We are close enough to the first settlers that even yet our oldest church member can say, "My father's father was one of Parson Elder's flock, and well recalled his boyish awe each Sabbath morning as the austere old man walked solemnly from the log 'retiring house' to the church, his fingers in his sermon book, his eyes fixed straight ahead, and no word or glance of greeting for the respectful congregation gathered before the door to do him reverence." But how is it with the children and the newcomers? Those days and ways are but a memory, we fear a dim one, to many who attend old Paxton to-day.

William Penn established Pennsylvania in 1682 as a "holy experiment" in which Europeans and Indians could live together in harmony. In this book, historian Kevin Kenny explains how this Peaceable Kingdom--benevolent, Quaker, pacifist--gradually disintegrated in the eighteenth century, with disastrous consequences for Native Americans. Kenny recounts how rapacious frontier settlers, most of them of Ulster extraction, began to encroach on Indian land as squatters, while William Penn's sons cast off their father's Quaker heritage and turned instead to fraud, intimidation, and eventually violence during the French and Indian War. In 1763, a group of frontier settlers known as the Paxton Boys exterminated the last twenty Conestogas, descendants of Indians who had lived peacefully since the 1690s on land donated by William Penn near Lancaster. Invoking the principle of "right of conquest," the Paxton Boys claimed after the massacres that the Conestogas' land was rightfully theirs. They set out for Philadelphia, threatening to sack the city unless their grievances were met. A delegation led by Benjamin Franklin met them and what followed was a war of words, with Quakers doing battle against Anglican and Presbyterian champions of the Paxton Boys. The killers were never prosecuted and the Pennsylvania frontier descended into anarchy in the late 1760s, with Indians the principal victims. The new order heralded by the Conestoga massacres was consummated during the American Revolution with the destruction of the Iroquois confederacy. At the end of the Revolutionary War, the United States confiscated the lands of Britain's Indian allies, basing its claim on the principle of "right of conquest." Based on extensive research in eighteenth-century primary sources, this engaging history offers an eye-opening look at how colonists--at first, the backwoods Paxton Boys but later the U.S. government--expropriated Native American lands, ending forever the dream of colonists and Indians living together in peace.

What would you say to a deceased loved one if they could come back for one day? What if you can’t just ‘move on’ from grief? At Home with Grief: Continued Bonds with the Deceased chronicles Blake Paxton’s autoethnographic study of his continued relationship with his deceased mother. In the 90s, Silverman, Klass, and Nickman argued that after the death of a loved one, the bond does not have to be broken and the bereaved can find many ways to connect with memories of the dead. Building on their work, many other bereavement scholars have discussed the importance of not treating these relationships as pathological and have suggested that more research is needed in this area of grief studies. However, very few studies have addressed the communal and everyday subjective experiences of continuing bonds with the deceased, as well as how our relationship with our grief changes in the long term. In this book, Blake Paxton shows how a community in southern Illinois continues a relationship with one deceased individual more than ten years after her death. Through this gripping autoethnographic account of his mother’s struggles with a rare cancer, her death, and his struggles with sexuality, he poses possibilities of what might happen when cultural prescriptions for grief are challenged, and how continuing bonds with the dead may help us continue or restore broken bonds with the living.
