Seller: David M. Lesser, Fine Antiquarian Books LLC

Title: DAVID MINTON WRIGHT, M.D., 1809-1863. A REPRINT FROM "THE RICHMOND NEWS", RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, FRIDAY, MAY 10, 1901
Author: [Wright, David Minton]
Seller: David M. Lesser, Fine Antiquarian Books LLC (United States)
Description: Mexico City: Privately Printed, 1925. [2], 8, [2 blanks] pp. Original staples and detached original printed wrappers. At head of title: "Expunged from the Record ---." Except as noted, Very Good. Dr. Wright, a physician, is "remembered because of the regrettable circumstances surrounding his death. . . When Federal troops entered Norfolk on 10 May 1862, the noncombatant citizens were permitted to carry on undisturbed and peacefully. As a physician Wright was accorded the same privileges. This changed for him on 11 July 1863. . . . According to the newspapers, Wright was walking on the sidewalk near his home when he met a column of African American troops occupying the entire walk, jostling men, women and children into the gutter" [NCpedia on line, internal quotation marks omitted]. This behavior offended Wright, whose remarks prompted white Lieutenant Sanborn to confront him. Shots were fired, Sanborn was killed, and Wright was arrested and tried. Found guilty, he was hanged and "thereby came to be considered a martyr to the Southern cause and a hero" [id,] We don't know why this account of the affray and tribute to Wright was printed in Mexico in 1925. OCLC 24864594 [1- UNC] as of July 2024.
