\u201cInflammatory Utterances of a Colored Preacher\u201d
Daily Progress<\/em>, Tuesday August 23, 1910, page 1
https:\/\/search.lib.virginia.edu\/sources\/uva_library\/items\/uva-lib:2094358<\/a>

Charlottesville\u2019s Daily Progress<\/em> published numerous reports in the summer and autumn of 1910 about \u201ca colored preacher, named Calvery\u201d [sic] in the Keswick area \u201cwho claims to be a native born Abyssinian.\u201d The first article predicted ominously: \u201cThe course of this man has been well calculated to stir up ill feeling between the races, and destroy the kindly relations theretofore existing.\u201d (DP 8\/23\/1910)

The Daily Progress<\/em>, referring to the preacher as D. C. Calvary in later articles, described him as a \u201creligious and social negro fanatic.\u201d The articles repeatedly praised \u201ccolored people of the better kind\u201d who were \u201cco-operating with the white people in the effort to put an end to this threat of bloody collision between the races\u201d and scorned the \u201cignorant and perhaps not an altogether well disposed element of the colored race,\u201d who supported Calvary\u2019s views: 
\u201cThe baser sort of his race were all the more ready to embrace his teaching that the negro should by right be the dominant race and by reason of his superiority refuse to be patronized. \u2018Make them give you the road, and when they call you John, call them John\u2019 . . . He surrounded his church with an armed guard while he preached and sent out a defiant notice to the white people to come on, that he was ready for them.\u201d <\/em>(DP 9\/20\/1910)

Three local supporters of D. C. Calvary were mentioned in the articles\u2014John Locker and John Carter, who were arrested in September (DP 9\/21\/1910), and Mr. Mahanes at whose home D. C. Calvary was captured in November (DP 11\/18\/1910). A blacksmith named John Locker, fifty-four years old, was living just east of Cismont in Louisa County\u2019s Green Springs District in 1910, according to the U. S. Census.

The Daily Progress <\/em>article of November 18, 1910 is particularly painful to read.  It tells how eight \u201cof the leading citizens of the Keswick and Cismont neighborhoods\u201d formed a posse to hunt Calvary down and capture him, put a noose around his neck, beat and humiliate him, and put him on a train for Clifton Forge. The posse found Calvary \u201cat 4 o\u2019clock this morning at the home of one of his disciples named Mahanes, located near Thelma, Louisa County, just across from Cobham.\u201d D. C. Calvary\u2019s local supporters tried to protect him and prevent the searchers from finding him:  \u201cThe search was a long and tiresome one, from house to house, until seven cabins had been visited unsuccessfully.  At each cabin a new direction was given the searchers until finally the company took with it a guide from every place visited.\u201d

\u201cCity Awakes from Slumber: Long Nap is Nearing Close: Native Son Awakener\u201d
\u201cMr. Paul Goodloe McIntire, a Devotee of Art in its Best Forms and Highest Estate and a Lover of his Native Commonwealth, Resolves to Make Charlottesville, Like Monticello and the University of Virginia, Known to the World Around\u2014Attractive Parks and Magnificent Monuments to Be Our Portion\u201d
\u201cAnother exercise of Mr. McIntire\u2019s magic has removed the unsightly pile of buildings known as McKee Block, adjoining Courthouse Square, and there we shall see, in bronze, an expression of the austere dignity, the heroic spirit which made our Stonewall Jackson, the story of whose achievements has filled the earth with his fame, and engaged the pens of writers throughout the world, including those of great masters of strategy.\u201d

\u201cAs Viewed by a Vet\u201d
Letter to the Editor, signed \u201cVETERAN\u201d
\u201cAnd when, with singular propriety the foundation of the monument to the illustrious Lee is laid upon the former home of one of Virginia\u2019s distinguished University professors, Col. Charles S. Venable, of Lee\u2019s staff, who carried the last order from Lee to his little struggling band of heroes at Appomattox, and the yet added incentive of paying tribute to the memory of his gallant brothers in a holy and a righteous cause, one has reached the acme of giving and the gift is princely.\u201d

\u201cColored People Had Gala Day\u201d
George W. Buckner, a Charlottesville native, was Executive Secretary of the Urban League of St. Louis. He was the speaker of the day. \u201cHe briefly recalled the part the negro had played in the growth of our country and urged the large audience to assist the returning soldier in getting readjusted to civil life. A strong plea for better schools, larger economic opportunities, greater participation in civic affairs, was made in order that negroes might become better and more useful citizens to the community. After the stirring eulogy to the fallen heroes by Rev. C. M. Long, the large crowd quickly gathered baskets and went in search of shade while soldiers were served sumptuously.  It is the consensus of opinion that this celebration was the greatest celebration in the history of our city.\u201d
