The purpose of this study is to determine the circumstances surrounding the Quid revolt, to examine the intricate state and national politics of the period, and to observe how Jefferson handled this challenge to his authority.

This thesis examines the history of Jefferson, Marion County, Texas, and its cycle of prosperity and decline.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston University / The problem of this dissertation is that of tracing the philosophical presuppositions of Jefferson's social theories. This is done in two ways: (1) by determining his own implied presuppositions and (2) by tracing those presuppositions in the history of ideas. Although other aspects of his social thought are treated briefly, primary emphasis is placed upon his political philosophy. Jefferson cannot be called a philosopher in the classic sense of that term. The attempts to place Jefferson in a traditional philosophical school during the first twenty-five years of his life have been unrewarding if not misleading. Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence when he was thirty-three years of age and there is little indication that he had developed a systematic political philosophy. He interested himself in the early foundations of English common law and attempted unsuccessfully to establish the doctrine that true English law had its origin in a proto-democracy which had preceded the feudal era.

The volcanic stratigraphy and petrography is described for a 46 km2 area on the southern flank of Mount Jefferson in the north-central part of the Oregon High Cascades. Here, volcanic processes have been active throughout Quaternary time, resulting in complex stratigraphic relationships. In addition, three formerly recognized glaciations and a two-phase period of neoglaciation have eroded the terrain, depositing tills in contact or interstratified with the volcanic units. Collectively, these processes and the resulting deposits are characteristic of High Cascades development.
