Text Any textual data included in the document THE CYPRESS TREE BY J. D. WHITFORD Copied from New Bern Daily Journal, Sept. 10th, 1882 “We find before us a large Cypress Tree; it was originally the property of the Spaights. Historians fix the building of the first vessel in North Carolina in New Bern and it was under that tree, so said our fathers living in the Revolution who received the information from their fathers, and we think it can be taken as truth. “Stern dweller” of the shore, Two centuries thou canst count And perhaps as many more. This tree is on the margin of the Neuse, with its haughty crest lifted up above the elms and cedars on the street west of it. Under the shadow of its bows, amid the thunders of the Revolution, when gloom and darkness seemed to be encircling the American Army, Nathaniel Greene stood—the friend and associate of the elder Spaight—it was then Spaight’s tree. Some years pass by, the smoke of the war rises, the echo of the last gun is hushed in the distance, liberty is assured, our country is free, George Washington stands beside that old tree.” ----- From History of the Presbyterian Church of New Bern, N. C., by Rev. L. C. Vass “A large cypress tree stands near an old wharf on the Neuse, on the premises of Mr. Samuel Smallwood, but originally the property of the Spaights. Under this monarch tradition says the first vessel in North Carolina was built. Under its shade have stood General Washington, Nathaniel Greene, during trying times to his com­mand, John Wright Stanly, who lost fourteen vessels during the Revolution, the Spaights, Hon. Edward Everett, and many of the noblest of men.” Original Format The type of object, such as painting, sculpture, paper, photo, and additional data Leaflets Envelopes Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Friday Morning, November 20th Nineteen Hundred Twenty-five At Eleven O’Clock [page 2] MISS MARY WARD, Regent, Presiding. _______ THE STAR-SPANGLED BANNER Oh say can you see, by the dawn’s early light, What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming, Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight, O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming? And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. Chorus: Oh say does that star-spangled banner yet wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave? ________ Invocation . . . Dr. J.N.H. Summerell ________ D.A.R. RITUAL REGENT -- Daughters, we meet to honor the memory of our ancestors, to renew our pledge of loyalty to our country and our flag, and to emphasize the privilege and duty of patriotism. CHAPLAIN -- O! Give thanks unto the Lord; call upon His name; make known His deeds among the people. RESPONSE -- In Thy name shall they rejoice all the days, and in Thy righteousness shall they be exalted. CHAPLAIN -- Seek ye the Lord and His strength; see His face evermore. RESPONSE -- Remember His marvelous works that He hath done. CHAPLAIN -- The Heaven, even the Heavens, are the Lord’s. RESPONSE -- But the earth hath He given to the children of men. CHAPLAIN -- Praise the Lord, O! Jerusalem; Praise the Lord, O! Zion. RESPONSE -- For He hath strengthened the bars by the gates. He hath blessed thy children within thee. CHAPLAIN -- He shall judge among the nations and shall rebuke many people, and they shall beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. RESPONSE -- He maketh wars to cease unto the ends of the earth. He breaketh the bow and cutteth the spear in sunder. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. CHAPLAIN -- The Lord will give strength unto His people. The Lord will bless His people with peace. RESPONSE -- Whereas thou hast been forsaken and hated, I will make thee an eternal excellency, -- a joy of many generations. THE LORD’S PRAYER [page 3] THE FLAG SALUTE I pledge allegiance to my flag and to the Republic for which it stands -- one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. ________ THE AMERICAN’S CREED I believe in the United States of America as a government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign Nation of many sovereign States; a perfect Union, one and inseparable, established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice, and humanity for which American patriots sacrifice their lives and fortunes. I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws; to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies. ___Authorized Version. _________ Address.....

Original Format The type of object, such as painting, sculpture, paper, photo, and additional data Pamphlets Text Any textual data included in the document DIED IN NEW BERN, N. C., ON WEDNESDAY, THE 14TH DAY OF MARCH, 1894, JOHN AMOS GUION, M.D., IN THE 78TH YEAR OF HIS AGE. So passed from among us into the rest of life eternal, a gentleman, upright, honorable and just, cultivated and accomplished, a cit­izen of usefulness, prominence and of good report, the last of a family of three brothers, and of three brothers and two sisters of the half blood, who reached the years of manhood and womanhood; a family of dis­tinguished lineage, members of which have been eminent as citizens of New Bern, and elsewhere in North Carolina, for more than a century. It is a pathetic incident that the day of his death was also the 51st anniversary of the marriage of Dr. John A. Guion. The first of the name of Guion, --which in time past was sometimes spelled GUYON,--of whom we have knowledge, was Louis Guion, a Huguenot refugee, who fled, with so many others of his faith, from La Rochelle in France, to escape persecution on account of religion, about the year 1674. La Rochelle was a stronghold and one of the chief cities of the Huguenots. Beautifully situated in the Southwest of France, its history,--especially during the time of the so-called religious wars in France, extending, with short intervals of peace, over a period of more than a hundred years, (1560-1685),--is full of interest. In the 17th Century the city was besieged by an army of the famous Cardinal Richelieu, and succumbed only after a most heroic defence by its inhabitants. Louis Guion went first to England with his family, coming afterwards to America, where he arrived in 1687, and settled in New Rochelle, West Chester County, New York. New Rochelle, named in honor of the old home in France, was for many years the principal settlement of the Huguenots in our Northern States. It is the birth-place of many distinguished men,--among others of John Jay. at one time President of the Continental Congress, and the first Chief Justice of the United States under the Constitution. Isaac Guion, son of Louis, is said to have been born during the voyage to America, but more probably was born at New Rochelle in 1692. He died at New Rochelle in 1766. His son Isaac (2nd) was born at New Rochelle in 1720 and died there in 1784. This Isaac had a son, also Isaac, the grandfather of Dr. John A. Guion, who was born in New Rochelle in March, 1740; he it was, the first of the name, who came to North Carolina, where he established himself in the practice of medicine.. He married Ferebe Pugh Williams, who was born at Fort Barnwell in Craven County, 26th of May, 1746. At the time of this marriage she was a widow, Mrs. Lee, and one of her daughters, Sallie Lee, became the wife of John Haywood, Treasurer of the State from 1787 to 1827. Sarah Lee Haywood died in February, 1791, and lies buried in the churchyard of Christ Church, New Bern, where was the main aisle of the old Church of Colonial days. Isaac Guion settled first on White Oak River in Onslow County, from whence he removed with his wife to New Bern. By this marriage there were five children, of whom two, Isaac Lee and Elizabeth Pugh (Mrs. Francis Hawks) were born in Onslow County, and three were natives of New Bern, viz. Ann Maria (Mrs. Hugh Jones); John Williams, the father of Dr. John A. Guion; and Margaret Sarah (Mrs. Andrew Scott). Isaac Guion with Edward Starkey, and others, represented the County of Onslow in the Provincial Congress that met in Hillsboro, the 21st of August, 1775. This Congress made active preparation for the war of the Revolution, then just at its beginning, and organized the first Continental troops of the North Carolina Line, to the 1st Regiment of which (Col. James Moore) Isaac Guion was appointed Surgeon, his commission bearing date 1st September, 1775. On the 11th of December, 1776, he was appointed Commissary of the 9th Regiment of Continentals,--of which his relative, John Pugh Williams, was Colonel, and in March, 1777, he was transferred to the 7th Regiment, (Col. James Hogun,) as Paymaster, in which capacity he served until July, 1778, when the regiments of the North Carolina Line were reduced in number and consolidated. It is worthy of note that his cousin of the same name, Isaac Guion of the New Rochelle family, also served as a Continental officer, having been in the New York Line throughout the war of our Revolution, and afterwards in the United States army. The Provincial Congress of August, 1775, of which Isaac Guion was a member, was a very able body, and one that legislated wisely and well in very troublous times. Against it Gov. Josiah Martin, from his safe retreat on board the man-of-war “Cruizer”, in the Cape Fear River, fulminated his wrathful proclamation of August 8th, 1775, in which he forbade the assembling of the Congress, and denounced it as “one of the black artifices of falsehood and sedition.” The Congress returned the compliment by ordering the document to be burned by the public hangman, styling it “a false, scurrilous, malicious and seditious libel.” Gov. Martin was much exercised, too, about this time, on account of the actions of the citizens of New Bern, and in the same proclamation complains of “treasonable proceedings, of an infamous Committee at New Bern, at the head of a body of armed men, in seizing and carrying off six pieces of artillery, the property of the King, that lay behind the Palace at that place, repeated insults and violences offered to His Majesty's Subjects, by these little tyrannical and Arbitrary Combinations.” Towards the end of the Revolution Isaac Guion settled in New Bern. In 1789, by Act of Assembly, he was appointed a Vestryman--­Church warden as he is called in the Act (Chap. 32)--of Christ Church, with Richard Dobbs Spaight, Major John Daves and six others, and in the years 1793 and 1795 he represented the town,--then entitled to borough representation,--in the General Assembly. In May, 1803, Isaac Guion died, in the 64th year of his age,--his wife, Ferebe, surviving him until February l0th, 1811, when she died in her 65th year. John Williams Guion, father of Dr. John A. Guion, was born in New Bern the 14th February, 1783. On the 15th December, 1811, he married in New Bern, Mary Wade, born in Craven County, l0th June, 1790,--daughter of Captain Amos Wade and Hannah Shine, his wife. Mrs. Mary Wade Guion died December 12th, 1818, at the early age of 28. She was a woman of great piety and abounding in good works. It is a fact of interest in connection with her funeral, though then not unusual, that her pall-bearers were of both sexes: Stephen B. Forbes and wife, John Coart and wife, Wm. Taylor and wife, Wm. Hollister and wife, Mrs. Benners Vail and Mrs. Green Bryan. So at the funeral of Mrs. Mary McKinlay, as late as October, 1840, the pall-bearers were Mrs. Vail, Mrs. Snead, Mrs. Backus, Mrs. Blount, Mrs. Custis and Mrs. Coart. On the 23rd of July, 1820, John Williams Guion married a second wife, Mary Tilman of Craven County, who was born 23rd July, 1787, and died in New Bern, l0th June, 1856, outliving her husband, who died 17th July, 1840. For many years John Williams Guion was prominent in business circles in New Bern, and as a Bank officer. Three children of his first marriage attained years of maturity, viz: Haywood Williams, who was born in New Bern, 9th June, 1814, and died in Charlotte, N.C., 19th July, 1876; John Amos, the subject of this sketch, born in New Bern the 22nd September, 1816, and died as above stated; and Isaac, born in New Bern, 19th October, 1818, where he died April 30th, 1845. Of his second marriage five children were born to John Williams Guion,--Tilman Henry, Ferebe Eliza (Mrs. John Justice), Mary Jane, Benjamin Simmons, and Alexander Henderson, all of whom are now (March, 1894), dead,--the last two, Colonel Tilman Henry Guion, and Benjamin Simmons Guion, having died on the 22nd of January, 1876, and the 9th of November, 1893, respectively. The childhood and youth of John A. Guion were passed in New Bern, his early education having been at the New Bern Academy tinder the tuition of Alonzo Attmore, to whom, and to his famous “Lancastrian” system, so many owed their thorough training. It is a common remark that it was the exception to find among Mr. Attmore’s pupils one who was not well versed in all studies pursued, especially in the accomplishment of correct spelling. At the age of 16 John A. Guion went to Tripoli as Private Secretary to D. S. McCauley, who was Consul there of the United States. There he was stationed for about two years in the discharge of the duties of his position, and on his return to this country, having determined to devote himself to the study of medicine, he entered the College of Physicians and Surgeons at Philadelphia, where, in 1837, he was graduated with distinction, and shortly after, when he was but 21 years of age, he was awarded, after a rigid competitive examination, the posi­tion of Assistant Surgeon in the United States Navy, a position he filled most acceptably until 1843, when he resigned to return to his native town to practice his profession. Dr. Guion improved to the utmost the unusual opportunities and advantages afforded by his residence in the Mediterranean Ports, and by his various cruises made while in the Navy. To other acquirements, he added that of an accomplished linguist. Besides the European languages, he became quite fluent in Arabic, a language soft and musical as spoken by him. On the 14th of March, 1843, John A. Guion married Susan Sydney, born 24th July, 1823, oldest daughter of John M. Roberts of New Bern, and Mary E. Jones, his wife, a lady eminent for good deeds, of exemplary piety, zeal and earnestness, who was much beloved, and to her husband a helpmeet indeed. Mrs. Guion died in New Bern the 26th, of February, 1880, in the 57th year of her age. Of this marriage seven children, four sons and three daughters, survived their parents, five of whom still live in New Bern. Another son attained the age of manhood but died before his father. A few years after his marriage Dr. Guion, in partnership with the late Edward R. Stanly, established a factory in New Bern, on the present site of the passenger station of the Atlantic & North Carolina R.R., for the manufacture of woollen cloth. This, about 1855, was converted into a cotton mill, and was afterwards transferred to East Front Street to about where the Fertilizer Factory now stands. Here he remained until 1859, when he was appointed Cashier of the Bank of Commerce, then just established in New Bern, a position held by him during the existence of that institution. In charge of the effects of the bank,--he went,in 1862, when New Bern was occupied by the Federal forces, to Burlington. N.C., then called Company’s Shops, where he lived during the continuance of the late war. Returning to New Bern at the close of the war, he resumed the banking business in partnership with the late Israel Disosway, in which he continued until 1869, when he accepted an appointment as Cashier of the National Bank of New Bern, a corporation to which his experience and able management contributed greatly to rescue from financial embarrassments. As, cash­ier he continued to serve until August l0th, 1886, when he was disabled by a paralytic stroke, and shortly after resigned. In process of time Dr. Guion recovered in great measure from this severe attack, but was never fully restored to his accustomed robust health. Thereafter he lived a retired life, confining himself for the most part to his home circle. In active business he mingled but little, except so far as required by his duties as Commissioner of the Sinking Fund of Craven County, and Trustee of the New Bern Academy, which he continued to discharge up to the time of his death. For many years he was a Vestryman of Christ Church, as his father and grandfather had been before him, and in 1871 when the church building was burned, he was active and efficient in aiding to procure means for its rebuilding. He took great pleasure in gardening, in which he was an adept and very successful. The writer of this remembers to have heard him say many years ago, --long before the era of truck-farming hereabouts,--that early cabbage, which many then said could not be made to “head” in this latitude, could be profitably grown here, and the experience of our truck-farmers of late years abundantly verifies the correctness of his statement. At the last Fair of our Fish, Game and Oyster Association, held in February, 1894, Dr. Guion was a frequent and an interested atten­dant. Probably his last official act was, as chairman of the judges, to award the prizes in the department of Archaeology at that Fair; and in that capacity, as in every other, he left the pleasant impress upon those with whom he was brought in contact, of his excellent judgment, his great consideration and unfailing courtesy. It was the privilege of the writer to be associated with him there, and he little thought that so soon would pass peacefully to his rest this warm friend, wise counsellor and honored citizen. “He will move onward to the eternal hills, His foot unwearied, and his strength renewed, Like the strong eagle’s for the upward flight.” GRAHAM DAVES.

Subject The topic of the resource United States--History--Civil War, 1861-1863--Prisoners and prisons Description An account of the resource This short volume describes the experiences of a Craven County resident while in a northern prison camp during the latter part of the Civil War. John B. Ernul (May 28, 1843-January 13 or 14, 1918) enlisted in 1st Co. I, 10th Regiment, NCST, on September 17, 1861, at the age of 18. On April 16, 1863, he was transferred to Company A, 1st Battalion, N.C. Local Defense Troops (Whitford's Battalion N.C. Partisan Rangers). That company was formed into Company A, 67th Regiment, NCST, on January 18, 1864 [Lewis Manarin, et als., North Carolina Troops, 1861-1865 (Raleigh, N.C.: NCDAH, 1966), 14 vols to date, 1:142 and 3:88]. Ernul appears to have been wounded and captured on March 7, 1865, and sent to Point Lookout, Maryland. He was discharged from prison on June 11, 1865, returning to New Bern on June 23 (taken from his narrative). After the war, Ernul moved to New Bern, where he was listed as a shingle dealer in the 1880 Craven County census. He married Nancy Potter (April 7, 1852-September 18, 1899) on May 7, 1876 [Beauchamp, 1880 Craven County Census (New Bern, N.C.: Beauchamp, 2002), p. ?; Craven County Marriage Register 5]. Ernul died on January 13, 1918 (or on January 14, 1918, according to his tombstone), at the age of 74, and is buried in Cedar Grove Cemetery in New Bern. He was survived by one daughter, Delve Ernul (Mrs. John W.)

During the forty four years from April 29, 1858, to April 29, 1902, forty four of the committee have died, leaving only seven living in 1902; their names are in italics. A singular coincidence is that the ages of those living in New Bern correspond with their position on the list. The first accident on the railroad resulted in the death of Miss Eliza Vipen[.] Miss Vipen was anxious to go up the road; on account of being extremely timid she was afraid to ride on the train, and got on a handcar. By some means her dress or shawl was caught in a wheel and she was thrown out and killed. For many years Miss Vipen had taught school in the building at the southeast corner of South Front and Craven streets. Among her students was the now President of the New Bern Academy. WILLIAM H. OLIVER. New Bern, N.C., April 29th, 1901. [page 2] COMPLETION OF THE ATLANTIC & NORTH CAROLINA R.R. FROM GOLDSBORO TO NEWBERN, N.C., APRIL 29, 1858. ______________________ A meeting of the citizens was held and a committee appointed to make arrangements for a celebration. This committee was divided into several committees; Col. John D. Whitford was made chairman to arrange for a ball, Mr. Charles C. Clark was on the committee to invite a speaker, William H. Oliver was made chairman of the committee on entertainment. The almost Herculean task of providing for the entertainment of the vast crowd of people who was expected to be here was assigned to me. I at once went to work. The first thing was to order from New York a sufficient quantity of white granite plates and dishes, glassware, knives and forks and spoons sufficient to set off the immense tables which were to be erected. Next to make arrangements for the provisions. I soon secured about two thousand pounds of fresh meats and about one thousand bushels of oysters, which constituted the substantials. The celebration was to be on Thursday; the fresh meats and oysters were to be delivered on Tuesday. On the day they were delivered the weather turned extremely warm, and we were afraid the meats and oysters would be spoiled. With fear and anxiety we went to bed on Tuesday night, as the weather still continued very warm. Imagine the relief the next morning to find a sudden change in the weather, and quite a heavy snow had fallen, and everything was safe. Almost every household was ready to commence cooking and all went at it willingly. Mr. Sebastian Bangert had baked a vast number of loaves of bread, which with a number of barrels of crackers was used. [page three] A number was engaged in making and baking a vast number of peach and apple pies. Knowing that our western friends could not raise as fine sweet potatoes as the east, I bought a boat load of fine yam potatoes and they were put in Mr. Bangert’s bake oven on Wednesday night and baked to perfection; they were spread on the tables and greatly enjoyed by many who had never before had [sic] eaten the yam potatoe. Seven long tables had been erected; they were covered with nice white cloth and on them were placed the crockery and the glassware. Probably there never before or since in North Carolina were more imposing tables set for a public entertainment. On Thursday morning all was bustle, everyone busy, and a host of persons were bringing the provisions which had been cooked by almost every household in Newbern. The town was soon full of people, it being estimated at eight thousand as visitors. Rev. Dr. Francis L. Hawks and Henry W. Miller, Esq., addressed the assembly in the Academy Green. A procession was then formed, marched to the Round House at the railroad depot and everyone invited to partake of the dinner. Rev. Dr. Francis L. Hawks, a native born citizen of then Newbern, presided. From the number of expressions which were so frequently heard everyone was satisfied. Not only the edibles, but a quantity of genuine champaign and scuppernong wine was furnished. There were six or seven military companies present. Trains of cards from almost every section of the State came in loaded to their full capacity with visitors. These trains remained until after the close; they were stretched in Hancock street, extending from Trent river to the railroad depot. I was frequently asked what was to be done with the great quantity of cutlery and glassware. I had already planned to have it disposed of a auction. Mr. John C. Coart, who was an auctioneer, sold it at public sale, and it realized a sufficient amount to pay the cost of it. It was certainly an entertaining and enjoyable occasion. I use the name Newbern as that was right up to 1898, at which time by an act of the legislature it was changed to New Bern. WILLIAM H.

It breaks upon a nation's ear-- Like ocean's sob upon the shore, The wail of storms whose wrath is o'er. From proud Virginia's mountains grand It swells through all our Southern land. A country mourning o'er its slain, Who gave their lives, and not in vain, Since its heart their memory blooms Fresh as the flowers upon their tombs. Their toil is o'er, their labors cease, In war they died, but died for peace. They bravely fought and nobly fell, And fame their glorious deeds shall tell; When she decrees a crown of Bay No power on earth her hand can stay; And on these graves a wreath is laid No storm can change, no time can fade. [page 3] Where she has placed this deathless crown Let woman cast her roses down, And Love and Fame forever stand A guard of honor, hand in hand, Around these graves where heroes lie Who fought for right, nor feared to die. 3 Reading of selected poems, Rev. Geo. L. Leyburn, D.D. 4 Music by the Choir, "Auld Lang Syne." AULD LANG SYNE. Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And never brought to mind; Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And days o'lang syne?
