C. H. J. Taylor
Charles Henry James Taylor,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Charles Henry James Taylor (1857–1898) )〕 usually styled C.H.J. Taylor (1857–1898) was an African American journalist, editor, lawyer, orator, and political organizer. An early supporter of Democratic Grover Cleveland, he was appointed Minister to Liberia in Cleveland’s first presidential term.
During Cleveland’s second term, Taylor was the first African American ever nominated for a diplomatic appointment to a “white” country (Bolivia), although he was not confirmed by the Senate. He was subsequently made Recorder of Deeds for the District of Columbia, a position he held until early in the McKinley administration. After leaving Washington, Taylor edited an Atlanta newspaper, ''The Appeal'', as well as being dean of the Law Department at Morris Brown College.
== Early life ==
Taylor was born in slavery on a plantation near Marion, Alabama, possibly in 1856, although sources differ on the year of his birth, as about many details of his life. After the Civil War he went with his family to Savannah, where he was educated at Beach Institute, a school of the American Missionary Association. He may have attended Oberlin College, in Ohio, and have studied law at the University of Michigan. He claimed to have graduated from the latter institution, although there is no record of his having done so. He was admitted to the bar in Marion County, Indiana, in 1882, and served as a deputy district attorney in Indiana’s Nineteenth Judicial District.
In 1883, while teaching school in Palmyra, Missouri, Taylor met and married Julia Shropshire, and in the same year moved to Kansas, where he began his career as an orator and political organizer.
