	The Supreme Court Historical Society
		Justice John Archibald Campbell was preeminently a man of the nineteenth century: his life spanned all but its first and last decades, and his personal philosophy of economic individualism reflected an age when industrialization and development of vast natural resources seemed to present the opportunity for every individual to elevate himself.
		In 1838, Campbell was retained by several landowners whose claims of riparian rights in land between the high and low marks of the Mobile River were under attack in ejectment suits brought by the City of Mobile and the heirs of William Pollard, a grantee from the Spanish crown.
		Campbell was convinced that the Fourteenth Amendment granted legal protection to the natural law fundamental rights–such as the right to pursue a lawful calling–embodied in the Thirteenth Amendment.

	Tonight - Time for a good storytelling
		Born in the tiny village of Mbokotwana, Archibald Campbell Jordan was to become an academic, author, linguist, critic, poet, musician and cricketer...plus a nationalist, a freedom fighter and a revolutionary.
		He was also the father of Zweledinga Pallo Jordan, the distinguished ANC member who once tangled with Nelson Mandela over Jordan's commitment to a genuinely independent state broadcast system, as opposed to the government mouthpiece it remains, with only a change of masters.
		So writes Pallo Jordan in his foreword, and he would perhaps agree that equally, a book of this nature is "contrived" in contrast with the traditional format of the storyteller, and the expected interaction with the audience.

		Campbell's visits to the Western Reserve, not only at the annual gatherings of the associations, but at the ministers' meetings also, gave great impulse to the views of reform propounded in his periodical, and thus prepared the way for a mighty breaking up in things ecclesiastic, and the revolution soon to follow.
		His father, Archibald Campbell, who served as a soldier in the British Army under General Wolfe, and who was at the capture of Quebec, gave him and his three brothers, James, Archibald, and Enos, the advantages of culture and an English education in a military academy.
