CLOSED! Preliminary Hot Vintage TV Men List

Alright folks! We have one week left on submissions for the Hot Vintage TV Men's Bracket! As promised here is a list of all the Hot Vintage TV Men who have been submitted and passed our preliminary eligibility checks. There are a handful of guys on this list and one or two not on it that we are currently still debating on so reminder that this list is not final and subject to change.

Currently we have 231 Hot Vintage TV Men!

Also in advance of the competition I'd like to remind anyone submitting propaganda for someone that starred in a show that aired only partially during our timeframe or was under 18 for a part of a shows filming, to please make sure you are only submitting propaganda that is from within our timeframe and when the actor was 18 years or older. This is also just good to keep in mind in general as several people submitted actors for shows that aren't eligible for our tournament either because it was outside our time period or in one case the actor was underaged for the entirety of the show (though many were eligible for other shows they were submitted for). We do our best to screen for these things but sometimes it's hard to tell or it’s a show we don't personally know well enough so we appreciate help from y'all letting us know if you do catch anything.

Turn Week 2024: Day 3 - Different Time Period.

Now is the perfect time for me to bust out the College Band AU that's been invading my head for over a year. All because the sax TA looks like Benedict Arnold from TURN... I kid you not that's the origin. Is this a stretch for the prompt? Maybe but you get it anyway. Shout out to @phociian for jumping on my AU and rolling along with it.

There are a lot of characters, so I'm gonna cut down the list quite a bit for TURN characters. I also made most of them music majors because if I have to suffer music theory and aural skills, so do they.

George Washington: The Director of Bands

Everyone loves him, they show up to practice for him. His office hours usually have students in there just to chat and get some good advice. Also conducts the Wind Symphony.

Horatio Gates: The Assistant Director of Bands

The band director everyone loathes and makes them consider quitting. Usually a group of students decides to protest if they find out it's just him for a rehearsal and will get milkshakes or chug milk to get sick during rehearsal.

Lafayette: Drum Major

He was an international student his first year and decided to full on move and transfer to the United States. The Washington's usually host him. Has a ton of money, but everyone thinks he's broke because he only eats ramen.

Benjamin Tallmadge: Horn/Mellophone

Music and History Major. Absolute history nerd, but we love him for it. He's either usually in the library researching or in the music building practicing. Due to his friends he knows all the drama in the band but he wants nothing to do with it.

Caleb Brewster: Percussion (tenors)

Music Major. Caleb does gigs all over town at bars and clubs, usually with Jack Custis. He's only really in college to keep playing because he loves it. He's roommates with Ben, and their apartment basically became the designated hangout space.

Anna Strong: Color Guard (flags)

Journalism Major. Anna overhears a lot of gossip from the color guard. She's the reason why Ben knows so much. That and Abe usually causes some sort of drama that she has to drag him out again with the help of Mary.

Alexander Hamilton: Trumpet

PoliSci and Music Major. The very epitome of a trumpet personality. Along with John Laurens, they get up to far too many shenanigans. Including taking shots during a performance on stage.

Peggy Shippen: Majorette

Communications Major. Peggy has a long distance boyfriend, John Andre, at their rival school. Usually a good bit of jokes are made, but they're a very cute couple and take pictures together at the rivalry football game. The only reason she came to this university was because her father insisted on it. Though she transfers going into her Junior year.

Benedict Arnold

Saxophone TA (the thing that started it all). Arnold is really good at running the sax section through rehearsals and they're one of the best on the band. Even argued with Gates when he was crossing the line with comments towards students. And due to the music department (Congress) he left and went to the masters program at their rival university. (Still working on the flaws on this plot line)

Yes I know there are people missing, I haven't gotten to them as I have a lot on the aides and the other generals. I know not all instruments were covered, they are in my master doc. Yes, the specific details come from real life events. Thank you for reading

[turnwashingtonsbaddies]

Hi, this is cursed but here’s turn men and could they find the (l¡+

Ben: had to be told and was also too scared to ask, I feel like did understand after a little bit (I feel since his first relationship was with a dude and then Ik you ship him with Caleb he wouldn’t have know

Abe: hahah nope, I feel like Anna would have told him but he just completely ignored that

Robert Townsend: he’s too gay, he probably doesn’t know what that even is, I’m so sorry but this man has never seen a woman naked. (That’s not to say he’s inexperienced)

Simcoe: he knows

Hamilton: he knows

Lafayette: he probably knows

Champe: I have no clue but he gets no rep so I just wanted to mention him

Akinbode: yes he can

Hewlett: Anna told him, and unlike Abe, he knew exactly what to do with said information

Nathan: he’s barley a character but like… he’s one of my all time fav dudes! And he can’t find it. Even if girls like him, which some do, he’s never touched any of them. Man can find any part of a guy (namely Ben) with his eyes closed (which he probably has) but he couldn’t find the (l¡t.

first things first obsessed with such a creative way of typing clit lmaooo.

honestly no notes. anna telling both hewlett and abe but only one of them (and not abe) actually listening to her feels canonical to ME.

no notes honestly, except i do have some additions:

caleb knows where it is (he's the pussy eating champ after all)

john andre knows where it is too (he's very experienced with pussy)

benedict arnold does not know where it is and doesn't even believe in the female orgasm as a concept at all

and for that one person who asked about robert rogers head game, i am gonna say that rogers knows where the clit is. who's to say what he does with that knowledge, but he does know how to find it

Laurens's papers

Recently @46ten's posts got me hooked on the question surrounding what happened to Laurens's papers after his death, and who took hold of them. And you should check them out because they mention things I won't here, I've reblogged a few before posting this for reference. Anna (@my-deer-history) also made a valid point here, if you're interested. But here I will be diving into different subjects;

Additionally, JCH mentions that the Oct 1780 letter and the Apr 1779 letter are “the only one which has met our inquiries.” [x] Then are there are mentions of Elizabeth handing out the copies of the Oct 1780 to her biographers that she hired;

I see a common false assumption that Hamilton's family had them, but there only seems to have been two in their hold (Or at least that they published and didn't destroy). We know John C. “partly” published the April 1779 letter in Volume 1 of Life of Alexander Hamilton—I say partly because he cut out a large amount of paragraphs, he included everything from “Cold in my professions, warm in my friendships...” to “There is a total stagnation of news here...” but swiftly cuts out all the other paragraphs until “Fleury shall be taken care of. All the family send their love.”, but published the postscript. And does the same in The Works of Alexander Hamilton. He also had the physical original letter since there is a note and some censors on the letter presumably in one of the Hamilton boys handwriting.

But other than that, the only other Hamilton+Laurens letter that appears in John's work is the 11 October 1780 letter about Arnold and Andre. And many copies of the letter were made; “This letter was sent as an enclosure by H to Elizabeth Schuyler on October 11, 1780. The original letter sent to Laurens was probably intercepted, for there is a copy with three minor notations by Sir Henry Clinton in the William L. Clements Library of the University of Michigan. This letter, with relatively unimportant deletions, was printed in the New York Evening Post, July 23, 1802.” [x]

But [Elizabeth Hamilton] determined not to be outdone in this respect, and has submitted to me various manuscripts in the handwriting of her husband. The first is a letter addressed by him to Col. Laurens, then in France, giving a very particular account of the treason of Arnold, the capture, trial and execution of André, and of various personal interviews with him prior to his execution.

Source — Letters of George W. Strong, by George Washington Strong · 1922

With a little bit of digging, I found an interesting story about William Gilmore Simms. He was an American writer and politician from the South who was a “staunch defender” of slavery (Ironic considering who he wrote about). And also a poet, novelist, and historian. He also wrote The Army Correspondence of Colonel John Laurens. As ardent a southerner as he was, Simms's engagement with history was never cynical or narrowly utilitarian. He thought of his historical scholarship as a genuine effort to understand the past and to propagate that understanding to others. His passion for history was obviously linked to his identity as a South Carolinian. He certainly believed that to be of value, history should be written to inform and instruct the present, but all who seriously study the past believe so.

Apparently it is unknown just when and how Simms acquired the Laurens papers, but on the 11th February, 1845, Simms expressed an interest in producing; “a series of papers made up of brief biographies of distinguished men of the Revolution in the South, interspersed with their original Letters” [x] Simms planned to write about both Henry Laurens and John Laurens, but also other influential figures like, John Rutledge, Horatio Gates, William Heath, Arthur Lee, and Patrick Henry. To which he then proposed a series.

Moving on, Simms began his research for a volume on John Laurens soon after the exchange of these letters, and that research continued into 1846. On the 21st of December, he wrote to editor and critic, Rufus W. Griswold, asking about an article touching upon John Laurens which had appeared in the 2nd of December, 1784, issue of the Independent Chronicle of Boston. But after this, there was no more mentions of the papers or series, and it appears Simms began to work on other projects. Nonetheless, Simms never abandoned the idea of writing about Laurens or the other figures with his manuscript collection.

Which actually leads to an interesting story of where Laurens's papers could have been completely lost to history due to a fire;

The Civil War and its aftermath would do much to determine the fate of Simms's collection of John Laurens papers. In his 31 May 1862 letter to William J. Rivers, Simms expressed his anxiety that the war would threaten his plantation with its large library and manuscript collection. “I wish to save my library,” he told Rivers, “but my first regard is for these valuable old documents,” a collection of “very rich” material. Simms had good reason to be anxious. In October of the previous year Union forces began their conquest of the South Carolina coast, and Simms feared that if Charleston should fall, his property, a mere 70 miles inland, would soon afterward be exposed. He therefore implored Rivers, a professor of Greek literature at South Carolina College in Columbia, to receive his Revolutionary War manuscripts and be “the custodian of these treasures.” Simms told Rivers that, “I had proposed Lives of Henry and John Laurens,” with “selections from their correspondence & a running commentary.” Noting further that he had “made notes of them, & examined them carefully” but had nonetheless, “made few draughts upon their contents,” Simms suggested Rivers could assist him in preparing them for publication.

Simms had reason to be nervous about losing his library and manuscripts at this time because on the 29th of March, 1862, only two months before writing to Rivers, his house had caught fire. Although fortunately, it was put out successfully and there weren't endangering damages. Simms had only recently added a separate wing to the house to serve as his library. Probably completed no more than a month before the fire, which may have very well saved the manuscripts found in The Army Correspondence of Colonel John Laurens from destruction. Simms did confirm when writing to close friend William P. Miles afterwards that; “I have saved all my MS.S and nearly all my library. The wing was saved.” [x]

Later in 1864, at Woodlands, Simms was preparing to evacuate, packing up his manuscript collection and other selected items for shipment to Columbia, as threats of the Union Army coming had reached. While he had hoped to save his entire library, the manuscripts were his highest priority. Because the Union army appeared in Barnwell District, Simms was unable to return to Woodlands. In Columbia, he and his family were not present at Woodlands when it was burned down from Sherman's army. The library was entirely destroyed but at least the manuscripts had been saved.

After the war, Simms resumed his efforts to publish the Laurens papers. He spent the summer of 1866 in New York City trying to establish new and reestablish old connections with publishers and friends, disrupted as they had been by the Civil War. This included seeking a publisher for the Laurens papers as well as other pieces he had written or planned to write. With the help of Duyckinck, an agreement was reached with The Bradford Club (Founded in 1859 by John B. Moreau in New York City, The Bradford Club, named after William Bradford the first printer in the colony of New York, met periodically and published volumes on topics related to American history) to publish a portion of Laurens's papers.

These volumes were printed in a limited quantity and distributed to the club's members and subscribers. It published seven volumes from 1859-1867, before the club dissolved. Although there was a non-numbered volume by Duyckinck titled Memorial for John Allen and was published by the club in 1864. It was probably his previous connection that accounts for Duyckinck's apparent ease in arranging for The Bradford Club to publish Simms's The Army Correspondence of Colonel John Laurens which was the seventh and last volume published. Furthermore it was, in Simms's words, a “plan proposed by” Duyckinck which determined the form the volume would take.

In New York with the Laurens papers at hand, Simms began work immediately after the agreement had been reached. He asked Duyckinck for materials which would assist him in preparing a memoir of Laurens, that he planned to publish before the selection of letters to were included in the volume. Specifically, he requested a copy of the volume of D. Appleton and Company's The New American Cyclopedia, which Duyckinck had co-edited and also contained biographical sketches of Henry and John Laurens, both authored previously by Simms. Other references to other sources can be found in the “Memoir” included in The Army Correspondence of Colonel John Laurens.

On 28 September 1866 Simms wrote to Duyckinck; “I have prepared in a rough penciled draft, the memoir of Laurens,” and would begin revising and copying the next day. [x]

The contents he outlined in this letter would be the final contents of the volume. In addition to the Memoir is an 1824 letter from John Church Hamilton, an historian and the fourth son of Alexander Hamilton, which described Laurens's military and diplomatic career. Simms then also placed a poem, Lines on the Death of Colonel Laurens by Philip Freneau, whom Simms described as; “the poet par excellence of the American Revolution.”

Although the Memoir does not offer the same as a comprehensive biography of Laurens would, it does provide sufficient context for the letters which follow it. Those letters, what Simms called “Laurens' camp letters,” span the period from 13 August 1777 to 18 October 1778, and are all addressed to his father. While Simms did possess other of Laurens's letters - some of which he does quote in the Memoir - he never directly addressed his decision to set these particular letters apart in the finished volume. It is speculated that perhaps he thought that because these letters were addressed to Laurens's father during the period he served as president of the Continental Congress, and they were written by the son from roughly the time he began his service with Washington to before he transferred to South Carolina; Simms believed they comprised a set with a loose but coherent narrative. This was, after all, the period during which Laurens first experienced the war and began to demonstrate those qualities which would merit his posthumous fame.

Following the Civil War, Simms had realized that his personal finances were in a dire condition—With a house to rebuild, and a family to care for he was eager to establish sources of income wherever they could be found. While still in New York during the summer of 1866, Simms sold some of his Washington papers for $250 to an unknown buyer. Then in May of 1867 - after having finished editing The Army Correspondence of Colonel John Laurens, but not yet seeing the printed volume - he became desperate, and was beginning to consider selling the Laurens papers. With assistance coming again from Duyckinck, as well as John Jacob Bockee, the papers were sold - probably sometime before July of 1867 - for $1,500 to the Long Island Historical Society. Which in 1985, changed its name to the Brooklyn Historical Society. Those papers were transcribed and microfilmed and sold some time in the 1960s, and today Simms's collection of Laurens papers is located at The South Caroliniana Library of the University of South Carolina in Columbia.

Something I came across when digging through the manuscripts of Hamilton's and Laurens's letters was that on the back of Hamilton's letter to Laurens, 30 June 1780, there is a note on the back that reads; "Letters from diverse persons to J.L. antecedent & subsequent to his appointment as Special Minister, &c."

Source Library of Congress, Digital Collections. Image 35 of Alexander Hamilton Papers: General Correspondence, 1734-1804; 1780

Meaning someone was filtering through Laurens's letters, but I'm not sure who. As all previously presented, Laurens's papers were placed in many hands. It looks nothing like Simms's, as seen below with the first inage—nor, Evert A. Duyckinck's the second image.

But George L. Duyckinck's is seemingly of closer resemblance;

I also don't think Simms had any of the Hamilton+Laurens letters, as the Memoir only really contains letters from Laurens to his father. But that's not to say Simms never had these letters, rather he just focused on them. It could have been part of his collection but he didn't publish them, although I'm more inclined to believe these were part of the Coffin's sale. Moving on, according to Founders and other websites, Laurens's papers are scattered between several societies and libraries throughout the country, most in South Carolina, some in Massachusetts, etc.

speedrunning turn week 2023

i figure i just start from day 1 and catch up to today lol, i’m 5 days late

i’m not very good with re/blogging stuff hehe

Day 1: Origin story/What made me fall in love with the show?

I discovered the show by the time it had ended, in about 2018, maybe 2019. (My parents actually found it on Netflix and we watched it) I was going through a massive history phase because of Hamilton the Musical so this obviously didn’t help. Pretty British men on screen taking part in a Revolution? Yeah, I’ll watch your show. 

I ended up loving all of the characters and the plot, despite any dramatized historical inaccuracy. But it did make me do research to know what the truth was. I have been very attached to it since. I even made this animated video which you may or may not have seen floating around on YouTube.

Day 2: Content creator appreciation: 

I know @rhogeminid on here and that’s it lol. Go follow them for Simcoe shenangians

Day 3: Favorite villain/good-gone-bad

I have two contenders. 

Simcoe, because he is an absolute menace whenever he’s on-screen. He has this mastermind-ish vibe about him behind that icy blue stare. He’s always scheming something or attempting to plan or backstab his way to get what he wants, even if he’s not even saying anything. I felt uneasy when he was on-screen in season 1, and was really rooting for him to perish at the end of season 4. Cold, calculating, manipulative stinker.

Also, Benedict Arnold. Not that he’s necessarily a villain (I mean he kinda is, but not at the start), but because his personality and his downfall. Owain Yeoman really sells his character to have this better-than-thou presence (derogatory) whenever he enters a room. Watching his whole traitor arc is interesting once you pick up on all the little details about what brought him to that, and how he’s just so stubborn that he keeps on going, even if it means he has to somehow “fight” his way through. He’s so pompous and bull-headed that the dramatic irony kicks in and you know he’s gonna get his just deserts eventually.

Day 4: History nerdery (you can correct me if i’m wrong anywhere)

Most of the nitpicks I have with Turn are kinda silly, like the ages of the characters. Historically, Anna and Selah were married with many kids already, and Anna was older than Abe by like 10 years, if I’m not mistaken. I thought it was silly that Abe and Anna had a relationship in the show, but I guess whatever draws in that romance audience. 

Similarly, Abe being a bachelor throughout the spying years, and Thomas not existing in any shape or form in Abe’s family tree. Just weird little things. I understand it raises the stakes and gives something for Abe to fight for, but... he’s literally just a guy. A guy who’s given this extraordinary task. I’d watch a show about a little guy doing little guy things.

Day 5: Turn Dinner Party???

Assuming they don’t pounce on each other the second I look away: Ben Tallmadge, Caleb Brewster (life of the party), Mary, Hewlett, Anna, Peggy, John Andre, George and Martha Washington (I hear George was a good dancer), Lafayette, Bucephalus (I want the horse at the party), Abigail, Akinbode, Cicero. MAYBE Simcoe if he’s not being goofy. 

Abe can stay at home and think about his life. He doesn’t need to have all this drama.

[ask-chubby-hamilton]

My favorite characters in Turn: Washington's spies, as the end of season 3, which was a rollercoaster.

⚠️ spoilers!

1. Major Hewlett (I don't care if he's a snitch, he's my star boy and i love him, he's so adorable)

2. John Andre (His story in the show is so sad. I hate that he died, he just wanted his love :[)

3. Benjamin Tallmadge ( he's so Ahhh- 🥰🥰🥰)

4. Peggy Shippen (Love her so much, oml. It's sad that she had to watch Andre die 😭)

5. Abigail and Cicero (EEEEEE, I LOVE THEM SO MUCH, ESPECIALLY CICERO)

6. Hamilton (He knew what Washington was thinking just by LOOKING AT HIM, i love him and I've only seen him once)

7. Washington (He's the best)

8. Anna strong (I don't care if she's a h*e, i love her too much. Anna x Hewlett is so my otp, i don't care if it didn't sail.)

9. Mary Woodhull (Shes such a good wife, just like Eliza Hamilton)

10. Samuel Townsend (i like him, plus he punched Caleb which i think was a W move)

[pettyshippen]

Ok Class is Back In Session Cause I’m Drinking Boba Tea and Watching Liberty’s Kids

Bostonians

I just chocked on my boba

What if James and Sarahs first time boning was in a coach while the soldiers were asleep?

“You’ll see them after we’re married.” She tells him to make him anticipate the wedding day even more

BEN CAN WIGGLE HIS FUCKING EAR?

JoHn QuInCy

Henri burned his finger lmfao

Cute little family reunion that Sarah watched from a window

“What do you know about French?” BECAUSE HE IS FRENCH DUMBASS

Henris found his match with John Quincy.

So James is cool just traveling the colonies by himself for newspaper articles.

Yeah Abby is disappointed with John

James is just casually riding with men burning wheat fields

Make Henri and John Quincy look more like teenagers, it will instantly become the hottest ship of the fandom

Wow, Abigail is giving off Eliza Hamilton. Take a fucking break John.

Oh fuck they burned that village tf

Attacking an indigenous village over some misinformation is so fucked up

Alright were catching toads now

“You see with a white mans eyes” BURN

“I will fill your belly with a tale if the English”

This could have been a moment where Abigail started praising Sarah for being so brave all her life despite everything she had been through.

Wait Indigenous people went to Europe?

How in the FUCK did they tie a fucking FLY to a twig!

“I dub thee King George” RIBBIT 🐸

Well at least John asks his wife for her opinion

And she lets Henri read her letter

And then John said bye fam it was lit

Benedict Arnold

*internal screaming*

The villain of Sarahs story

SPIES

That reminds me, I just started watching Turn and I love it so far. I still haven’t gotten to any Benedict or Peggy scenes yet.

Peggys wig

“How many rats is in that nasty weave of yours”

Ah so they’re splitting up

James is fascinated af with spies probably thanks the Nathan

Omg I’ll totally have breakfast with you George

Benedict Arnold could definitely be a Disney villain.

Gaston combined with Frollo

God damn it Arnold.

Oops, bye Andre

The moment James realizes Arnold switched sides, he realized he would need to protect Sarah from him.

“I never argue with my wife” I think you do

“Why did General Arnold just ride off now?”

That gasp

Imagine the shot where you see Sarahs reaction to Arnolds betrayal and you can see angry tears

And then she goes on to write one of the most passionate articles in American history where she compares Arnold to Judas.

“He seemed so thrilled when I told him I had become a patriot. I wonder if he had already become a traitor.”

“You did it for liberty. Arnold did it for money and ambition and he didn’t care who would suffer or die for it.”

Dear I am a pest ok that was funny

An American Marriage | Tayari Jones | Published 2018

Newlyweds Celestial and Roy are the embodiment of both the American Dream and the New South. He is a young executive, and she is an artist on the brink of an exciting career. But as they settle into the routine of their life together, they are ripped apart by circumstances neither could have imagined. Roy is arrested and sentenced to 12 years for a crime Celestial knows he didn't commit. Though fiercely independent, Celestial finds herself bereft and unmoored, taking comfort in Andre, her childhood friend, and best man at their wedding. As Roy's time in prison passes, she is unable to hold on to the love that has been her center. After five years, Roy's conviction is suddenly overturned, and he returns to Atlanta ready to resume their life together.

This stirring love story is a profoundly insightful look into the hearts and minds of three people who are at once bound and separated by forces beyond their control. An American Marriage is a masterpiece of storytelling, an intimate look deep into the souls of people who must reckon with the past while moving forward - with hope and pain - into the future.

An American Marriage follows young newlyweds Celestial and Roy Hamilton. After meeting briefly in college, they came together after reuniting in New York City, becoming a couple and eventually marrying. They had been married for a year and a half when Roy suffered a case of mistaken identity and was accused of raping a white woman while he and Celestial had been staying in a hotel in Eloe, Louisiana visiting his parents.

Roy was convicted on the crime, despite having told the prosecution and police that he had been with Celestial the whole time this woman had been attacked in the room next to theirs, and Celestial confirmed this. But, this didn't matter to them...and Roy went away with a 12-year sentence.

At first, Celestial remains by his side: visiting him as often as she could, sending money to his books and writing letters. But, the more time Roy spends time behind bars, the further Celestial pulls herself away from him. She eventually stops visiting, and writing, and even sends Roy a "Dear John" letter informing him that she can longer be his wife.

After five long years in prison, Celestial's "Uncle Banks" was able to get Roy's conviction overturned and he will be released from prison shortly before the Christmas holidays. For Celestial, this is terrifying news. She has begun a new relationship with her neighbor and childhood friend, Andre, who was also a good and close friend of Roy's while they were in college and who was the one who initially introduced them.

Roy prepares to leave behind the life he has in prison for the life he has imagined the entire time he was behind bars. While in prison, he was reunited with his biological father, who ran off when he was a child and he was later adopted and brought up by Roy Senior, and he became Roy Junior. Despite initially being angry with his biological father, the two of them have gotten close after being bunk mates, and Roy later learned that Walter had requested that the two of them share their cell.

After getting out, Roy is met by his father and returns to his hometown. The two of them bond after so many years apart, and Roy goes to visit his mother's grave, Olive having passed away two years before due to lung cancer. He eventually decides that he needs to return to Atlanta to figure out what is going on between him and Celestial. All the while, Andre is preparing to head to Louisiana to bring him to Atlanta after the two of them talk like men.

But, without his knowledge, Roy ends up in Atlanta right before Christmas Eve and reunites with Celestial, although their reunion isn't anything like what Roy had in his mind. When Andre returns home the next day, exhausted, the two get into a fight and Celestial feels like she has an obligation to try to make it work with Roy. But, that Christmas, Roy understands that what he is doing is unfair to her, and that expecting her to wait for him had been unreleastic. The two of them part ways amicably.

In the epilogue, Roy writes to Celestial to inform her that he is once again getting married, to a woman he had a brief encounter with after his release from prison. Her name is Davina, and the two of them are making a family. While he won't have the children he so desperately wanted for himself, Davina has an adult son that he will become a stepfather too.

For Celestial, she and Andre have no desire to get married and are happy with where their relationship is now. She informs Roy that she is pregnant with a little girl, and hopes that he will pray for her family and the baby until her arrival and even after. Roy promises to do so.

[yr-obedt-cicero]

I know the original post is a few years old, but since it's resurfacing on my dash—I don't think JCH even had access to this letter?

There is the consideration of how letters that Hamilton sent to people even ended up in the Hamilton family's hands, because they would have been kept by whoever took hold of them after the person's death, and then there is the chance they were given to the family subsequently. There's a better discussion about whoever had taken in Laurens's letters here. But for the most part, it's unlikely the Hamiltons' had access to every letter Hamilton wrote, let alone every Hamilton+Laurens letter.

We know John C. “partly” published the April 1779 letter in Volume 1 of Life of Alexander Hamilton—I say party because he cut out a large amount of paragraphs, he included everything from “Cold in my professions, warm in my friendships...” to “There is a total stagnation of news here...” but swiftly cuts out all the other paragraphs until “Fleury shall be taken care of. All the family send their love.”, but published the postscript. And does the same in The Works of Alexander Hamilton. But other than that, the only other Hamilton+Laurens letter that appears in John's work is the 11 October 1780 letter about Arnold and Andre. And many copies of the letter were made; “This letter was sent as an enclosure by H to Elizabeth Schuyler on October 11, 1780. The original letter sent to Laurens was probably intercepted, for there is a copy with three minor notations by Sir Henry Clinton in the William L. Clements Library of the University of Michigan. This letter, with relatively unimportant deletions, was printed in the New York Evening Post, July 23, 1802.”

And if the letter was too explicit, why did he not just destroy it? In fact, John C. mentions the following about the April 1779 letter;

The following letter from Hamilton to Laurens is the only one which has met our inquiries.

Source — The Life of Alexander Hamilton, Volume 1, by John Church Hamilton · 1834

And according to Founders Archive, the September 16 1780 letter is located at Massachusetts Historical Society. So, it's likely that letter that was previously in Laurens's possession was likely passed through family members, or sold, and eventually found it's way into a collection—Bypassing John C.'s and his mother's hunt to retrieve all of Hamilton's surviving letters.

Breaking news my friends.  After searching through John Church Hamilton’s publication of The Works of Alexander Hamilton, I can confirm that Hamilton’s September 16, 1780 letter to Laurens was not printed.  I scrolled through all of the September/October 1780 letters and could not find it.  I searched just about every significant word in that letter and found nothing.  I searched every volume and could not find this letter in any of them.

Hamilton’s September 16, 1780 letter to Laurens is the one that contains this paragraph:

In spite of Schuylers black eyes, I have still a part for the public and another for you; so your impatience to have me married is misplaced; a strange cure by the way, as if after matrimony I was to be less devoted than I am now. Let me tell you, that I intend to restore the empire of Hymen and that Cupid is to be his prime Minister. I wish you were at liberty to transgress the bounds of Pensylvania. I would invite you after the fall to Albany to be witness to the final consummation. My Mistress is a good girl, and already loves you because I have told her you are a clever fellow and my friend; but mind, she loves you a l’americaine not a la françoise.

I think it’s safe to assume that JC Hamilton would have had access to this letter since we have preserved the letter today (and he selectively printed letters in other instances - see his printing of Hamilton’s “Cold in my professions…” letter).  So that means that JC Hamilton purposefully did not print it.  That means JC Hamilton found his father’s remarks about Laurens pressuring him to get married so they could be “cured” and the invitation to “the final consummation” just as suggestive as we do.  So I’d like to see someone make a case that this was “just how men wrote to each other back then.”

[ms-march]

She’s just like me for real

[turnwashingtonsbaddies]

OH THE RECENT ASKS HAVE HAD ME ALSO PONDERING SO HERES THIS: (note; not necessarily pussy because some of them are queer guys or straight women)

John Andre- I completely agree, also equally mediocre at best with the gay thing, good hands tho

Ben- messy, but good I feel like he’d be better with guys then girls

Caleb: I’m not a girl but I’d imagine the beard would be uncomfortable

Abe- he’s straight and would not for Mary or Anna, he is useless

Mary- she’s straight and loyal, she and Abe are a dysfunctional relationship, I don’t think she would but I might be bias because I hate Abe that much 😭💀

Simcoe- pretty good I think idk

Anna- good at both, queen of the “and what’s next” while her partner is a mess after lmaoo, better with women

George- would do anything for Martha so prolly

Alexander- obvs good at least for dudes, how else would he pull the whole camp, prolly with women too

Peggy- “I let you do it for me, is that not good enough?” She just wouldn’t, I’m sorry, also I think she’s straight

Robert Townsend and Nathan Hale- both gay, I’m sorry but there will be no pussy for them (good at the other thing tho)

adding the blowjob element is not fair here bestie. i've been through ENOUGH writing out the previous power-rankings (also i am not nearly as qualified to discuss it as i am not in possession of a dick)

i've talked about most of these in some past posts, but lemme touch on the ones i haven't:

i overall agree with your analysis of alexander hamilton. he is a slut, and he definitely had to have something going for him that would keep the ladies flocking to him. he probably had pretty strong head game and was good with the anatomy due to his plethora of experience. however, i do think he 100% always expects more in return from his partners than he is willing to give. he's not eating pussy simply for love of the game

now ik i said anna strong is a pillow princess but like peggy shippen is like THE pillow princess. she is not even pretending to put in any work because she knows she doesn't have to. this is a shame because i love her but it does have to be said

nathan hale gets 10 seconds of screen time in this show but honestly shout out to you for including him anyway. however, because he only gets 10 seconds of screen time im afraid i dont have enough source material to give you any heavy-hitting analysis here

if you wanna see my takes on the others you can find them here and here!!
