Daniel Harvey Hill
Dan L Morrill

On September 25, 1889, a passenger train pulled slowly out of Charlotte, North Carolina at approximately 7:30 a.m. and began hissing and screeching its way toward the small college town of Davidson about 20 miles to the north.  It was to be a somber journey.  Daniel Harvey Hill, called "Harvey" by his friends, who according to historian Shelby Foote had seen "about as much combat as any general on either side" in the Civil War, had died the previous afternoon of stomach cancer, and his corpse was being transported to its final resting place.1 The train gathered speed. It passed the Ada Cotton Mill at the edge of town and started chugging down the track that led into the open countryside. Black smoke must have billowed out of the engine's stack and swirled into the autumn sky.  Tenant farmers probably labored in the cotton fields along the route.  The rhythmic clattering of the wheels might have prompted some of the travelers to recall Civil War battlefields like Big Bethel, Malvern Hill, Sharpsburg and Chickamauga, where D. H. Hill had dispatched young Southerners by the thousands into deadly clashes with the Yankees.  Like many officers who led troops into battle during the Civil War, D. H. Hill is best remembered for his military exploits. Indeed, Hal Bridges, who has written the most substantial study of Hill's life, explains that his book "is not a biography but a study, with some biographical background, of Daniel Harvey Hill's Civil War career."2

But Hill's formative years occurred before 1861 and were occupied largely with education.  It was in the 1840's and 1850's that the character and personality of D. H. Hill took their final form.  To focus mainly upon Hill's military career, however dramatic his actions on the battlefield might have been, is to overlook the fundamental forces that shaped him. Similar to his famous brother-in-law, Confederate General Stonewall Jackson, Hill was a deeply religious man, almost morosely so.  "During the Civil War No other general -- not even Stonewall Jackson -- went into battle with a firmer faith in God," says Hal Bridges in Lee's Maverick General.3  Douglas Southall Freeman writes in Lee's Lieutenants that Hill "observed the Sabbath as diligently as did his brother-in-law . . ., and he always gave God the credit for victory."4   "He was as earnest in his Puritan beliefs as was Stonewall Jackson," stated John Cheves Haskell, who served under D. H. Hill in eastern North Carolina in 1863.5   In the opinion of J. W. Ratchford, his Confederate adjutant general or chief of staff, Hill had a "steady unswerving faith, . . . such as took God at his word and believed he was perfect in all his attributes."6   In 1858, just three years before the outbreak of the Civil War, Hill proclaimed that Christianity alone "produces love, peace, joy."7  Strange words coming from the mouth of a man who would soon become engulfed in four years of ghastly violence.  Like many Presbyterians, Hill was a fatalist.  In April, 1862, while serving under Joseph E. Johnston in the trenches outside Richmond, Va., he wrote in a letter to his wife that "all our affairs are in the hands of God."8   "What was long admired in Gen. D. H. Hill was his devotion to revealed truth, his discipleship as a member of the Church militant and invisible," proclaimed the Wilmington Messenger on September 27, 1889.9   His Christian beliefs, profoundly felt, had sustained Daniel Harvey Hill until the very end.

The old Civil War hero experienced an excruciatingly painful death. Imagine what it was like to suffer the agony of stomach cancer in 1889. "He knew that his days were numbered," stated a Charlotte newspaper on the day following Hill's death, "and towards the last his prayers of family worship gave evidence of very close communion with His Heavenly Father."10  D. H. Hill, Jr., a professor at the North Carolina College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts, now North Carolina State University in Raleigh, and Nancy or Nannie Hill, his sister, both of whom had been at their father's bedside when he had expired, were on the train that late September morning.  No doubt they too were comforted by knowing that their father had possessed an abiding religious faith.11  It was 9:20 a.m. when the locomotive finally pulled up to the Davidson Depot.  A large crowd waited on the platform. C lasses at the college, where Hill had taught mathematics from 1854 to 1859, were canceled to allow the students and faculty to attend the solemn ceremonies that would transpire that day.  The body was taken to the Presbyterian church, a Gothic Rival style brick edifice on the northeast corner of Concord Road and Main Street, where the funeral began at 11 o'clock.12  Dr. John Bunyan Shearer, the president of Davidson College, took his text from 2nd Samuel, 3:38.

Know ye not that there is a prince
and a great man fallen this day
in Israel.13

Shearer eulogized Hill.  He praised the former general as a "fearless patriot" and a "military hero."14  "The Gallant Confederate General Gone To His Rest," declared the headline in the Charlotte Chronicle. 15

The serenity of the funeral service must have struck some members of the audience as artificial and somewhat out of place.  Daniel Harvey Hill, his religious proclivities notwithstanding, had been anything but serene, tranquil and soft spoken during his 68 years.  Even C. D. Fishburne, an admiring colleague of his at Davidson College in the 1850's, admitted that Hill's "manner was direct."16  "He was what he seemed.  There was no hypocrisy or guile or sham about him," said the Wilmington Messenger.17 There was a grim side to Hill"s directness, however.  According to Ratchford, General Hill "could see and appreciate good or bad in those he came in contact with."18  The truth was that D. H. Hill could be cantankerous, quarrelsome, and highly judgmental, especially toward his superiors.  Pity the person who pricked his ire or stood in his way.  "He was a bitter, sarcastic critic of the frailties of humans," says Jeffrey D. Wert in his biography of Hill's close associate in combat and fellow classmate at West Point, James Longstreet of Georgia.19

According to John Haskell, D. H. Hill was "eccentric on the verge of wrongheadedness."20  Many students remembered Daniel Harvey Hill with great affection both at Washington College, now Washington and Lee University in Lexington, Va., where he taught from 1849 until 1854, and at Davidson. D. H. Hill was a superb instructor.  "He had the happy faculty," said J. W. Ratchford, "of imparting information, and what I appreciated most as a student was his ability to draw out what a boy knew."21  "As a teacher I have never seen his superior," Fishburne exclaimed.  "He had the rare capacity of interesting his pupils and of compelling them to use their faculties, often it seems unconsciously, in a manner that surprised themselves."22  "In clearness of interpretation, in relevant and apposite illustration, he has never been excelled," proclaimed Henry E. Shepherd, a student of Hill's at the North Carolina Military Institute, a private military school that opened in Charlotte on October 1, 1859 with D. H. Hill as Superintendent.23

Daniel Harvey Hill was a complex, highly intelligent human being who exhibited an astounding array of attributes and characteristics. Called "irascible" by one scholar, he nonetheless had a tender and deeply sentimental side. 24  Ratchford noted that Hill "was as helpless in the affections of his wife and children as other mortals."25  C. D. Fishburne described the impact that the death of Hill's eldest son, Robert Hall Morrison Hill, on April 5, 1857 had upon his father. 26  "I have never witnessed more intense anguish than his death caused to his father," Fishburne declared.  "For a time I feared that the Major's mind could become seriously affected.  All the fountains of tenderness and grief overflowed."27  Hill's letters during the Civil War to his wife, Isabella, are replete with examples of familial affection, compassion and concern.  On May 10, 1862, the dutiful husband and father gave explicit instructions to Isabella.

Train our children to love God. Our gloomy Presbyterian ideas encourage fear of God, not love for him. Let our children be taught love love love.  God be with you my child & the dear ones.28

One month later he wrote:
"It is of infinite importance that you should be calm & have strong faith.  Don't let little matters fret you.  Make home attractive to the children.  Those who have happy homes seldom turn out badly." 29

J. W. Ratchford, the former student and fellow South Carolinian who had served under Daniel Harvey Hill throughout the Civil War, from Big Bethel to Bentonville and all places in between, and who therefore probably knew "Harvey" Hill better than anyone outside Hill's immediately family, was fervent in praising his former commanding officer in a letter he wrote to D. H. Hill, Jr., most likely in 1890.  "No more able and gallant soldier or christian (sic.) gentleman and scholar sheathed his sword and submitted to the decrees of providence," Ratchford declared. 30  To understand the opinions and attitudes, especially the intense sectional pride, that characterized D. H. Hill's thinking one must begin by appreciating the circumstances of Hill's childhood.  His years spent in Virginia and North Carolina notwithstanding, Daniel Harvey Hill was at the core of his being a South Carolinian.  "He was intensely southern in his sympathies, filled with all the traditions of South Carolina, his native state," said C. D. Fishburne. 31  In a speech before the Davidson College Board of Trustees on February 28, 1855, Hill proclaimed:

"And what shall I say of the noble state in in which I was born?  I have loved her with a love stronger than that of a woman.  Yea, that love has only been strengthened by the abuse she has received from abolitionists, fools and false-hearted southrons.  I pride myself upon nothing so much as having never permitted to pass, unrebuked, a slighting remark upon the glorious State that gave me being. 32
D. H. Hill did not like Yankees.  His fierce disdain for folks from the North and particularly from New England, where abolitionists abounded, even found its way into the pages of an Algebra textbook he produced in 1857.  Indeed, some of the problems he devised were almost humorous in terms of how they castigated the people of the North."

A Yankee mixes a certain number of wooden nutmegs, which cost him 1/4 cent apiece, with a quantity of real nutmegs, worth 4 cents apiece, and sells the whole assortment for $44; and gains $3.75 by the fraud.  How many wooden nutmegs were there? 33
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------
In the year 1692, the people of Massachusetts executed, imprisoned, or privately persecuted 469 persons, of both sexes, and all ages, for alleged crime of witchcraft.  Of these, twice as many were privately persecuted as were imprisoned, and 7 17/19 times as many more were imprisoned than were executed.  Required the number of sufferers of each kind? 34
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------
In the year 1637, all the Pequod Indians that survived the slaughter on the Mystic River were either banished from Connecticut, or sold into slavery.  The square root of twice the number of survivors is equal to 1/10 that number.  What was the number? 35
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------
C. D. Fishburne was asked by Hill to read the manuscript before it was published.  He was shocked by its contents.  He expected it to deal with algebra, not politics.  Fishburne told Hill that he "protested against his bringing into a book . . . allusions and references which smacked of sectional politics."  Fishburne insisted that colleges and universities outside the South would not adopt the work because it contained superfluous material that was "offensive to those who lived in that happy region which lay north of Mason & Dixon's line."  D. H. Hill, Fishburne reported, received these objections "very pleasantly but suggested that he did not care whether his book was received favorably by the Northern people or not."36

Daniel Harvey Hill was an ardent admirer of John C. Calhoun, the legendary South Carolinian who had advanced the proposition that each individual state retained the power to nullify any Federal law it deemed to be unconstitutional.  Although he died in 1850, John C. Calhoun was in a very real sense the "father of secession." " . . . how can I revere thee enough, birth-place (sic.) of the pure, spotless, incorruptible Calhoun," Hill exclaimed in his address in 1855 to the Davidson College Board of Trustees. 37  A cadet at the North Carolina Military Institute, obviously inspired by Hill, said the following about Calhoun in a letter that appeared in a Charlotte newspaper on March 13, 1860.

. . . and last of all and greatest, Calhoun -- the logical, senatorial Calhoun, who loved his country, yet preferred to sacrifice his country rather than submit to oppression, or an invasion of Southern rights. 38

C. D. Fishburne, who had been Hill's student at Washington College and who resided in Hill's home after being recruited by Hill to join the Davidson College faculty in January, 1855, came to understand just how profoundly his mentor felt about South Carolina and about its famous native son, John C. Calhoun.  One evening he casually mentioned in Hill's presence that he had little regard for Calhoun and his political ideas. The tension was immediate.  Hill was furious.  These remarks, Fishburne wrote, "were received by him silently and the conversation was broken off."  Fishburne was devastated when Hill shunned him for several days. Finally, he went to Hill and apologized. "I assured him that I meant nothing offensive to him and . . . that my fealty to party was nothing compared with my attachments to friends."39

Daniel Harvey Hill was born in the York District of South Carolina on July 12, 1821. 40  The youngest of eleven children, he was reared by his mother, Nancy Hill, because his father, Solomon, died when Daniel or "Harvey" was only four years old, leaving the family deeply in debt.  It was on a small farm in this hilly region of upper South Carolina, just below the North Carolina line, that the future Confederate officer imbibed from his mother the unquestioning Calvinistic faith that molded his character and guided his actions throughout life.  "I had always a strong perception of right and wrong," Hill remembered. 41  Images of a young boy laboring under a blistering, relentless South Carolina sun come readily to mind.  He routinely joined his mother and his brothers and sisters to read Bible verses aloud before going into the fields to plow the thin topsoil of the Piedmont.  On Sundays he traveled with his family to Bethel Presbyterian Church, where Nancy Hill, a stern but compassionate disciplinarian, made certain that all her children sat quietly in straight-backed pews while the preacher held sway.  Adding drama to the scene were black slaves, compelled by their owners to attend the white man's church, peering down from the balcony. Hill "accepted the institution of Negro slavery" as part of Southern civilization, states Hal Bridges. 42

Outside in the Bethel Church Cemetery was the grave of D. H. Hill's paternal grandfather, William Hill, who had attained local fame because of his exploits as a resolute patriot and ironmaster during the American Revolutionary War.  Nancy Hill's father, Thomas Cabeen, a scout for Thomas Sumter, the "Fighting Gamecock," had also earned a reputation for extraordinary bravery during the War for American Independence.  This family tradition of resisting "tyranny" would play no small part in shaping D. H. Hill's political attitudes towards the North when sectional antagonisms intensified in the years preceding the Civil War.  Like so many supporters of the Confederacy, Daniel Harvey Hill believed that America's second effort in nation building, in 1861, was just as legitimate as its first effort, in 1776.  "As a boy in South Carolina he had listened to endless stories of how Grandfather Hill and other Southerners had won the Revolutionary War," writes Hal Bridges. 43  In his provocative study of the political culture of the ante-bellum South, Masters and Statesmen.  The Political Culture of American Slavery, Kenneth S. Greenberg asserts that "Southern anxieties about England, inherited from the republican ideology of the revolutionary period and reinforced by later events, underwent a slow transformation into a fear of New England and the North."44  D. H. Hill was certain that his opposition to the Yankees was equivalent to his grandfathers' exploits against the British.  "Northerners just seemed to copy everything that England had done -- encourage slave revolts, fail to return fugitive slaves, prevent the extension of slavery, develop an abolitionist movement, exploit labor, and threaten liberty with power," Greenberg maintains. 45

Nancy Hill did not have enough money to send her youngest child to college.  Consequently, she was gratified when "Harvey" was recommended for appointment to the United States Military Academy at West Point in 1838.  Admitted as a cadet on June 1st, D. H. Hill went on to graduate Number 28 in a class of 56 in 1842.  Interestingly, he received some of his lowest marks in mathematics, the academic discipline he would later teach at Washington College and Davidson College.  Despite his more or less average performance as a cadet, the young South Carolinian did acquire at West Point a lasting respect for the advantages and benefits of military education.  "It is . . . impossible to over estimate the influence of military schools upon the welfare of society," Hill proclaimed in 1860.  "Were it possible to train all our young men in them, lawlessness would be absolutely unknown and unheard of in the next generation."46  Daniel Harvey Hill distinguished himself as a soldier in the Mexican War.  Invariably a rapacious fighter, he helped Zachary Taylor capture Monterrey and fought under Winfield Scott at Vera Cruz and Cerro Gordo, and led storming parties at Padierna and Chapultepec, for which he was singled out for special praise.  "He was one of the six officers in the whole force employed in Mexico who were twice breveted for meritorious service upon the field," says one of Hill's biographers.47  "He believed that war meant to kill, and that the speediest way to whip your enemy was to hurt him," commented a newspaper editor many years later.48  When the South Carolina Legislature decided to award swords to the three bravest of its soldiers in the Mexican War, Hill was selected as one of the recipients.

On November 2, 1848, Hill married Isabella Morrison, daughter of Robert Hall Morrison, the first president of Davidson College, and granddaughter of General Joseph Graham, who had seen extensive service in the Revolutionary War, including the Battle of Charlotte, and the Battle of Cowan's Ford on the Catawba River.  An intelligent woman with requisite Presbyterian piety, Isabella had met "Harvey" while he was visiting one of his married sisters, who lived near Cottage Home, the residence of the Morrisons in Lincoln County, North Carolina. In February, 1849, D. H. Hill resigned from the army and traveled with his young bride to Lexington, Va., where he accepted a position as a Professor of Mathematics at Washington College.  "I have never regretted leaving the service," he wrote some years later.49  It was in Lexington, Va. that he renewed his acquaintance with Thomas J. Jackson, later "Stonewall" Jackson, whom he had met during the Mexican War.  Hill played no small part in Jackson's obtaining a teaching position at the Virginia Military Institute, also in Lexington, in 1851. Indeed, he recommended Jackson for the job.  In a letter he wrote to D. H. Hill, Jr. on February 8, 1890, C. D. Fishburne gave a poignant description of his early encounters with his mathematics instructor at Washington College.  "He was then comparatively a young man, wore full whiskers but no mustache, was slightly built, of serious aspect, to us youngsters at least."50  Fishburne went on to explain that the students were surprised by Hill's generally disheveled appearance.  Unlike the other West Point graduates who taught at Washington College, he was "careless in his dress," Fishburne declared, "a fact that impressed us the more because we knew him as having been an officer of the U.S. Army."51  His students at Washington College, as mentioned earlier, held Daniel Harvey Hill in highest esteem as a teacher.  "He was regarded as strictly impartial and very generous in recognizing and encouraging any originality and unusual ability among his pupils," said Fishburne.52

On August 10, 1853, the Board of Trustees of Davidson College voted to invite Daniel Harvey Hill to become a Professor of Mathematics at their fledgling institution of higher education.53  D. H. Hill was thoroughly familiar with Davidson, because his father-in-law, Robert Hall Morrison, had been the college's first president.  Even though he was quite content to remain in Lexington, Va., where he had "received not a single mark of discourtesy, or disrespect," Hill accepted the position at Davidson, largely because of his "desire to labor in a College, founded in the prayers, and by the liberality of Presbyterians."54  Also, the Board of Trustees had agreed to support his "views . . . in regard to the standard of education, and system of government of the College."55  C. D. Fishburne explained that Hill "entered on his duties with the assurance that he would be heartily sustained by a large majority of the Trustees in every effort he might make to completely change the College, in the standards of scholarship and behavior."56  What happened over the next five years at Davidson College illustrates just how tenacious and persistent "Harvey" Hill could be.  Nothing could seemingly dissuade this man from trying to attain an objective once he had decided to pursue it. Nothing.  To put matters bluntly, the Board of Trustees wanted Hill to take charge and subdue the violence that was threatening to destroy the college.  "Major Hill was . . . induced to accept the place by the urgent request of prominent friends of the College who were dissatisfied with its condition," said Fishburne.57  The 33-year-old South Carolinian was eager to meet the challenge.

The behavior of the students, like that on many other college campuses in the South, was raucous and unsettling.  Many of the approximately 90 students were virtually out of control.58  Riots were common.  Drinking and carousing were widespread.  If suspended, troublemakers would not go home, largely because they did not have enough money to pay their way. Waiting to be readmitted, they would walk around campus or sleep all day in the town's boarding houses.  Even worse, at night, under the cover of darkness, they would entertain themselves by making mischief, much of it mean spirited.  On Thursday, December 22, 1853, for example, students attacked the houses of two professors with rocks and eggs and set off several bombs on the campus, "the report being heard some four or five miles around the College."59  On Friday, April 21, 1854, a "wooden building was demolished" during a campus riot.60  One student even put gunpowder into a candle snuffer, which exploded when it was used.  The unsuspecting owner suffered serious damage to one eye.61

After fulfilling his obligations at Washington College, Hill arrived in Davidson on May 28, 1854, and almost immediately began implementing major changes in the academic program.  Uppermost on his agenda was the installation of the same military grading system of merits and demerits used at many colleges during the 1850's, including Washington College and West Point.  Not a few students, Hill insisted, had been "allowed to trample upon all laws, human and divine."  These surly youngsters had an "undisciplined mind, an uncultivated heart, yet with exalted ideas of personal dignity, and a scowling contempt for lawful authority, and wholesome restraint," he lamented.62  Hill insisted the he knew how to end such fractious behavior.  Never one to mince words, especially when he believed that somebody in authority was incompetent, Hill lashed out at Samuel Williamson, the College's president.  "The character of a College depends mainly upon the character of its President," Hill told the Board of Trustees several months later.63  In August, 1854, Williamson resigned when it became clear that the combative new mathematics professor was going to prevail.  Hill also offered to quit, but the Board of Trustees insisted that he stay.  As promised, the Board of Trustees approved Hill's new grading system of merits and demerits, on August 8, 1854.  The most severe punishment was bestowed upon those students guilty of "profanity, fighting, disorderly conduct in recitation rooms, in Chapel, or on the Campus."  There were also severe penalties for students "being improperly dressed in Chapel, in recitation rooms, or on Campus."64  Clearly, a restrictive new regime was taking control at Davidson College, and Daniel Harvey Hill was its indomitable leader.  The days of lax discipline were over.

The minutes of the Davidson College Faculty are replete with examples of professors, especially D. H. Hill, subjecting students to exacting regulations.  These included unannounced inspections of dormitory rooms to make sure that students were studying, informing parents when their children were "too frequently absent from College duties," and reading each Monday in Chapel a "list of the delinquencies and offenses" that had occurred the pervious week. 65  ". . . on account of noise on the campus, Profs. Hill and Fishburn (sic.) inspected the College Buildings and found that Messrs. Bailey, and R. B. Caldwell were absent from their rooms," the Faculty minutes declared on one occasion. 66  D. H. Hill was particularly concerned about students drinking whiskey.  The minutes of one meeting stated:

Faculty met, and after the usual business, some conversation was had about certain students being addicted to drinking, and it was reported that a citizen of the village had informed a member of the Faculty that there was a good deal of drinking this term among the students. Where-upon, it was agreed, on motion of Major Hill, that the Faculty visit the students' rooms one night of this week. 67
There was also anxiety about the presence of firearms on campus.  The Faculty stipulated that "no student be allowed to use fire-arms (sic.), except on Saturday, and at no time on the College premises."68  The new instruments of control even extended to visitors to the campus.  In May, 1855, the Faculty hired policemen and directed them "to disperse negroes who may collect about the College on Sundays."69

It was against the background of these developments that a large number of students rioted with particular ferocity on the night of December 21, 1854.  No doubt harboring deep resentments over the enforcement of Hill's restrictive measures, the participants in this uprising expressed their anger by lighting fires and throwing rocks and eggs at two professors' houses, including the home of J. R. Gilland, the president of the Faculty.  Rocks flew through the air.  One struck Hill in the forehead. Undismayed, blood dripping down his face, the feisty mathematics professor pressed the attack, just as he had done in the Mexican War and as he would do later in battle after battle with the Yankees during the Civil War.  Gradually the students retreated and began to slip away into the darkness.  Hill ordered the Faculty -- there were only four members -- to enter the dormitories to make sure which students had stayed in their rooms.

All the students were either at their desks studying or asleep in their beds when the faculty entered.  One room was locked.  Hill smashed in the door with an ax, rushed in and found D. Newton, a known mischief-maker, feigning sleep but still wearing his boots.  The repercussions of this student uprising were dramatic and profound, at least for Davidson College.  An inquisition of sorts occurred the next day, when the entire student body was ordered to appear before the Faculty and explain their whereabouts the night before.  Not surprisingly, everybody insisted that they had not taken part in the recent disturbance.  On December 26th, the Faculty suspended D. Newton for three months for "his inattention to his studies, . . . his having used in a written essay disrespectful language to a Professor, and from the strong circumstantial evidence to convict him of participating in a riot on the night of the 21st."70  Forty-two students, more than 50 percent of those attending Davidson College, signed a petition requesting that Newton be allowed to remain.  The document contended that convicting Newton on mere circumstantial evidence was "inconsistent with the principles of justice, and contrary to the dictates of reason."71  When D. H. Hill and his colleagues refused to adhere to the their wishes, the protesting students left school, many never to return.  Daniel Harvey Hill did not seek to be popular.  In his opinion, neither should colleges.  Too many colleges and universities, he insisted, had become little more than "polishing and varnishing" institutions, because they did everything necessary to maintain their enrollment, including sacrificing academic standards.72
