Representing Augusta County in the House of Delegates from 1778 to 1791, Johnston was chair of the House committee on religion and helped pass the \"act for establishing religious freedom\" in 1786. After he moved to Rockbridge County, Virginia, in 1792, he represented that county in the House of Delegates in 1792 and 1797-1798. An opponent of paper money, and a proponent of court reform and payment of British debts, Johnston supported the federal Constitution in 1788. As Augusta County's representative to the ratifying convention, he was influential in having his section of the state unanimously vote for ratification. In the 1790s, Johnston was interested in connecting Virginia's western rivers to the Potomac River. Johnston owned three plantations in Rockbridge County, one in Augusta County, and lands in Kentucky. He married Ann Robertson (d. 1818), and they had eleven children. He died 7 January 1800 in Rockbridge County.\" - Library of Virginia","The Zechariah Johnston papers includes personal, business, political correspondence to and from Zechariah Johnston.

The board is expected to execute its responsibilities of oversight of the University's operations through the activities of its standing and ad hoc committees and during the plenary sessions of the full Board of Trustees during its three annual meetings.","This collection's previous unique identifier was RG 0002. It was previously housed in filing cabinets and placed into archival boxes in 2025.","This volume underwent conservation treatment in 2025 with funding provided by the Class of 1966 W\u0026L History Fund.","This volume underwent conservation treatment in 2025 with funding provided by the Class of 1966 W\u0026L History Fund.","This volume underwent conservation treatment as a gift from the 2006-2007 Alumni Board in Memory of Andrew Blythin Ward (1977-2006).","The first page states that \"This book contains a regular account of the Academy of Liberty Hall from its origin. Taken from the Minutes of the Presbytery of Hanover and the Synod of Virginia...These Records were begun January 1793 By order of the Board of Trustees.\" The card catalog cards created by W. W. Pusey use the creation date of 1774 for this volume. However, given that those earliest minutes were transcribed into this volume in 1793, that is the date used for the finding aid as it accurately reflects the creation date of the volume.","Administration Records Collection (RG 1.01); Matriculation Books (RG 1.02), Liberty Hall Academy Subscription List (RG 1.03), Jacob Fuller Scrapbook (RG 1.04)","The Board of Trustees records contain minutes, agendas, correspondence, reports, subject files, committee files, recommendations, resolutions, and the oath book. ","The first series is the Minute Books. The first minute book dates to 1793. Someone, presumably the secretary, transcribed the earliest minutes into this volume. The subsequent volumes became the item of record for recording meeting minutes.","The second series contains other records of the Board, including correspondence, resolutions, reports, and financial documentations. Subjects vary but include items related to the overall business of running the university, faculty affairs, student affairs, alumni affairs, and the local community. The correspondence recipients vary and sometimes include university presidents. This series is divided into sub-series by decade when appropriate. This series keeps the order already established, likely by former faculty member and administrator, William W. Pusey. Pusey indexed the collection by trustee name and by subject in circa 1982. Every entry was typed onto a catalog card and can be accessed in the Special Collections and Archives reading room. Each name and subject card refers to a specific folder number. For the best interest of the researcher, it was decided to keep the sequential numbering. It should be noted here that during the time the collection was originally foldered and numbered, an oversight was made. There is no folder 485.","For reasons unknown, Faculty records and Treasurer's records were added to this collection at some point in the past. They are accounted for in the index and for that reason, and because it would throw off matching an index card to a folder number, they were left in the collection in the order in which they were added. The Faculty records series contains primarily correspondence. The Treasurer's records contain correspondence and financial documents. ","One of the highlights of the collection is the letter sent by George Washington to the Board thanking them for changing the name of Liberty Hall Academy in his honor for his gift of James River Canal Company stock. The original stock indenture is also in the Board records.","At some time in the past, several items written by President Robert E. Lee were removed from the Board and placed into the Robert E.

Subjects vary but include items related to the overall business of running the university, faculty affairs, student affairs, alumni affairs, and the local community. The correspondence recipients vary and sometimes include university presidents. This series is divided into sub-series by decade when appropriate. This series keeps the order already established, likely by former faculty member and administrator, William W. Pusey. Pusey indexed the collection by trustee name and by subject in circa 1982. Every entry was typed onto a catalog card and can be accessed in the Special Collections and Archives reading room. Each name and subject card refers to a specific folder number. For the best interest of the researcher, it was decided to keep the sequential numbering. It should be noted here that during the time the collection was originally foldered and numbered, an oversight was made. There is no folder 485.\u003c/p\u003e\n","\u003cp\u003eFor reasons unknown, Faculty records and Treasurer's records were added to this collection at some point in the past. They are accounted for in the index and for that reason, and because it would throw off matching an index card to a folder number, they were left in the collection in the order in which they were added.

committee files, recommendations, resolutions, and the oath book. ","The first series is the Minute Books. The first minute book dates to 1793. Someone, presumably the secretary, transcribed the earliest minutes into this volume. The subsequent volumes became the item of record for recording meeting minutes.","The second series contains other records of the Board, including correspondence, resolutions, reports, and financial documentations. Subjects vary but include items related to the overall business of running the university, faculty affairs, student affairs, alumni affairs, and the local community. The correspondence recipients vary and sometimes include university presidents. This series is divided into sub-series by decade when appropriate. This series keeps the order already established, likely by former faculty member and administrator, William W. Pusey. Pusey indexed the collection by trustee name and by subject in circa 1982. Every entry was typed onto a catalog card and can be accessed in the Special Collections and Archives reading room. Each name and subject card refers to a specific folder number. For the best interest of the researcher, it was decided to keep the sequential numbering. It should be noted here that during the time the collection was originally foldered and numbered, an oversight was made. There is no folder 485.","For reasons unknown, Faculty records and Treasurer's records were added to this collection at some point in the past. They are accounted for in the index and for that reason, and because it would throw off matching an index card to a folder number, they were left in the collection in the order in which they were added. The Faculty records series contains primarily correspondence. The Treasurer's records contain correspondence and financial documents. ","One of the highlights of the collection is the letter sent by George Washington to the Board thanking them for changing the name of Liberty Hall Academy in his honor for his gift of James River Canal Company stock. The original stock indenture is also in the Board records.","At some time in the past, several items written by President Robert E. Lee were removed from the Board and placed into the Robert E. Lee family papers (WLU Coll. 0064). His first annual report to the Board (1866) has been placed back with the collection. In time, the others will be added back as well. Until then, researchers should know to consult the Lee family papers for items associated with Lee's time as president.","Alexander, Andrew (Trustee), Alexander, Archibald (Alumnus), Alexander, Robert (Rector, Augusta Academy), Alexander, Thomas (Worker), Alexander, William (Trustee), Archibald, Robert (Tutor), Baxter, George Addison (Rector), Blackburn, Samuel (Trustee), Blain, Daniel (Faculty), Bowyer, John (Trustee), Boyd, Elisha (Student), Brackenridge, James (Debtor), Brown, John (Trustee), Brown, Samuel (Trustee), Brownlee, [?] (Student), Caldwell, William (Student?), Campbell, Alexander (Trustee), Campbell, Arthur (Trustee), Campbell, Charles (Trustee), Campbell, James (Tutor), Campbell, John Poage (Trustee), Campbell, John Wilson (Student), Campbell, Samuel L.

Artillery, near Drury's Bluff, on the 16th of May 1864.\nMy surviving son, so soon, as he learned you had accepted the Presidency of Washington College, expressed a strong desire, that I should send him there, as soon as he was prepared to enter. I propose gratifying him, if it is possible for me to meet the expenses; provided, non residents of the State of Virginia are allowed to enter that college. It was formerly a State Military College, \u0026 I have an impression that its privileges were limited to the Sons of residents of the State. I write for information on that Subject: If I am mistaken in this, then be pleased to inform me, 1st What sum per annum, will cover the entire expenses, except for clothing \u0026 traveling. 2nd Whither the course of instruction is upon the plan of the University of Virginia, or that of the ordinary college curriculum of four years, at the end of which the degree of A.B. is conferred?\nI do not expect to send my son off before the summer or fall of the present year, perhaps not so soon as that, the time depending upon the fitness of his preparation. A particular statement of the extent of preparation in the languages \u0026 mathematics, necessary for entering in the lowest class, \u0026 of the progress required for each succeeding year will be thankfully received.\nWhat is the population of Lexington; To what extent, if any has the Town been destroyed; Is it likely to maintain its former reputation for healthfulness, \u0026 for high moral \u0026 religious tone?\nWith an apology for the length of this communication, \u0026 the expression of a desire that any response you may be pleased to make, shall accord with your own convenience and leisure. I am very respectfully\nYour obt. Servt\nGeo. S. Walden","William Archer Cocke wrote to Robert E. Lee February 1, 1866 from Monticello, Florida.

Lee which he manually recorded in this memo book which he titled \"Conversations with Gen. R. E. Lee\". Soon after each conversation, Allan described retreating to his office to record the highlights. In 1886, former Washington College Clerk of faculty and Librarian, Edward Clifford \"E.C.\" Gordon shared with Allan, by mail, a similar manuscript reminiscence of a discussion he had with Lee in 1868 on the Sharpsburg/Antietam campaign, specifically the story of Lee's \"Lost Dispatch\". Allan transcribed Gordon's reminiscence into his memo book – with a background note. (Gordon's original reminiscence was then purportedly returned to him.) The memo book is accompanied by an informative 1886 letter from Gordon to Allan on the Lee conversations. There are also two letters regarding the gift of the memoranda book to Washington and Lee University in 1946 by Mrs. Louisa P. Allan, William Allan's daughter – in – law. Subjects of the conversations include Lee's objectives and strategy at different points during the American Civil War; Lee's decision to resign from the United States Army on April 20, 1861 including his conversations with U.S. Army General Winfield Scott; and commentary, at times critical, of Federal and Confederate generals and leaders including George McClellan, D.H. Hill, James Longstreet, Jefferson Davis, Richard Ewell, Thomas J. \"Stonewall\" Jackson, Joseph Johnston, J.E.B. Stuart, and John-Fitz Porter. Civil War battles mentioned or discussed include Antietam, Fredericksburg, Gaines Mill and the Seven Days Battles, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, and the fall of the defenses at Petersburg, Va.","Robert E.

Lee directing movements of his Army of Northern Virginia during the Maryland Campaign of 1862. It was lost by an unidentified Confederate courier and found by Union soldiers and subsequently forwarded to Union General George B. McClellan. The contents of the dispatch influenced the battles of South Mountain and Antietam.","Letter from E.C.(Edward Clifford)Gordon, former Washington College Clerk of Faculty, to Col.

Lee on February 16, 1868. A main theme of the letter is the content from the memo book regarding the story of Lee's \"Lost Dispatch\" during his Maryland Campaign of 1862. \nThe second letter  accompanied the memo book when it was given by Louisa P. Allan, Col. William Allan's daughter - in - law,  to Washington and Lee University President Francis Pendleton Gaines in 1946.","Reminiscences of Robert E.

A particular statement of the extent of preparation in the languages \u0026 mathematics, necessary for entering in the lowest class, \u0026 of the progress required for each succeeding year will be thankfully received.\nWhat is the population of Lexington; To what extent, if any has the Town been destroyed; Is it likely to maintain its former reputation for healthfulness, \u0026 for high moral \u0026 religious tone?\nWith an apology for the length of this communication, \u0026 the expression of a desire that any response you may be pleased to make, shall accord with your own convenience and leisure.

Lee which he manually recorded in this memo book which he titled \"Conversations with Gen. R. E. Lee\". Soon after each conversation, Allan described retreating to his office to record the highlights. In 1886, former Washington College Clerk of faculty and Librarian, Edward Clifford \"E.C.\" Gordon shared with Allan, by mail, a similar manuscript reminiscence of a discussion he had with Lee in 1868 on the Sharpsburg/Antietam campaign, specifically the story of Lee's \"Lost Dispatch\". Allan transcribed Gordon's reminiscence into his memo book – with a background note. (Gordon's original reminiscence was then purportedly returned to him.) The memo book is accompanied by an informative 1886 letter from Gordon to Allan on the Lee conversations. There are also two letters regarding the gift of the memoranda book to Washington and Lee University in 1946 by Mrs. Louisa P. Allan, William Allan's daughter – in – law. Subjects of the conversations include Lee's objectives and strategy at different points during the American Civil War; Lee's decision to resign from the United States Army on April 20, 1861 including his conversations with U.S. Army General Winfield Scott; and commentary, at times critical, of Federal and Confederate generals and leaders including George McClellan, D.H. Hill, James Longstreet, Jefferson Davis, Richard Ewell, Thomas J. \"Stonewall\" Jackson, Joseph Johnston, J.E.B. Stuart, and John-Fitz Porter. Civil War battles mentioned or discussed include Antietam, Fredericksburg, Gaines Mill and the Seven Days Battles, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, and the fall of the defenses at Petersburg, Va.","Robert E. Lee's copy of D.H. Hill's post Civil War magazine \"The Land We Love,\" which published an article pertaining to the story of Lee's \"Lost Dispatch\" - an order by General Robert E. Lee directing movements of his Army of Northern Virginia during the Maryland Campaign of 1862. It was lost by an unidentified Confederate courier and found by Union soldiers and subsequently forwarded to Union General George B. McClellan. The contents of the dispatch influenced the battles of South Mountain and Antietam.","Letter from E.C.(Edward Clifford)Gordon, former Washington College Clerk of Faculty, to Col.

Lee on February 16, 1868. A main theme of the letter is the content from the memo book regarding the story of Lee's \"Lost Dispatch\" during his Maryland Campaign of 1862. \nThe second letter  accompanied the memo book when it was given by Louisa P. Allan, Col. William Allan's daughter - in - law,  to Washington and Lee University President Francis Pendleton Gaines in 1946.","Reminiscences of Robert E.

Lee directing movements of his Army of Northern Virginia during the Maryland Campaign of 1862. It was lost by an unidentified Confederate courier and found by Union soldiers and subsequently forwarded to Union General George B. McClellan. The contents of the dispatch influenced the battles of South Mountain and Antietam.","Letter from E.C.(Edward Clifford)Gordon, former Washington College Clerk of Faculty, to Col.
