Births, Marriages & Deaths from the Lehighton Press, 1892-1893 This Is Births, Marriages & Deaths From The Lehighton Press, 1892-1893 This is the first in a series of vital records extracted from the Lehighton Newpaper, The Lehighton Press. As my source I am using microfilm from The State Library of Pennsylvania. Like the extracts from The Carbon Advocate, in extracting the births, marriages & deaths, I have not included the following types of items: 1. Items that did not pertain to Carbon or the surrounding counties. I excluded anything west and south of Berks County, and south of Lehigh & Northampton Counties. I generally included anything north of Carbon county. 2. Estate notices. 3. Murder trials. 4. Coroner inquests when they are not part of the original death notice. In extracting these records, I have copied items as completely and exactly as possible. I have not attempted to correct any spelling errors. If I felt a need to add any text, I did so in brackets. Although most of the papers on microfilm were easy to read, there were some times where the image quality made things difficult. Because of this, researchers are advised to consult the original records. Volume 1, Number 1, Thursday, April 21, 1892 Murder at Honey Brook. A coal region murder occurred at Honey Brook on Sunday evening. Guiazo Naukorato is the victim and Jenoro Fracario, the murderer. The latter was at once apprehended and is in the Pottsville jail. Both men are Italians employed by Contractor Crawford at the Honey Brook stripping, and the affair is the result of a drunken spree. A Brakeman Killed. William Hulshizer was instantly killed in the Lehigh Valley yard at South Easton on Friday. Hulshizer was an extra brakeman on an irregular freight train, and was just returning from a trip from Easton to Mauch Chunk when the accident happened. The deceased was 33 years old and leaves a wife and family. AN EASTER SUNDAY MURDER. One Man Killed and Another Wounded at Stockton. The little town of Stockton, just across the Carbon County line, was thrown into a great state of excitement on Sunday last by a murder being committed there, the result of a Hungarian carousal. John Takatah was the victim, and he died about seven o'clock in the evening from the effects of wounds received in the fight. The affray happened at about three o'clock in the afternoon at the boarding house of Steve Takatah, a brother to John. The men who are accused of the deed are John Tapshak, Joseph Midlow, John Kritche and Joe Gadosh. All were in a fight and after it was over John Takatah was found on the floor with a wound in his throat and his face fearfully slashed with an axe. Andrew Varya was lying near by with two stab wounds in his back. It is thought the latter will recover. After committing the deed the four assaulters escaped in the direction of that part of 1 Stockton known as Middleton, and the supposition is that they crossed the mountain to the North side. The officers think they will soon be captured. Two of them were to appear as witnesses at Wilkes-Barre this week in a robbery case in which Mike Yurish who is now in jail, figured in. While the officers were searching for the murderers in the different shanties at Stockton, they came across a lot of "Huns" who were holding high carnival, and in in one shanty they noticed five kegs of beer on tap at one time. In And Around The County. The mother of John Mitchell, of Landsford, died suddenly in Philadelphia, on Saturday. In And Around The County. Mrs. Samuel Olewine, a very estimable lady of Millport, died on Friday night of last week. Aged 74 years. In And Around The County.

Searching parties discovered his body this afternoon in an abandoned mine near town. He had shot himself in the forehead. Sleath was a collector of rents, and before ending his life he put his accounts in proper shape. No motive can be ascribed for the deed, except that he had loaned out money, which he was unable to collect. Lehighton News.

A Valley Brakeman Meets a Horrible Death. Charles Koons, of White Haven, a brakeman on the Wyoming branch of the Lehigh Valley railroad, met a horrible death at Packerton on Monday morning. Those who saw the 3 accident say that Koons stepped on the railroad track in front of his locomotive which was approaching unawares to him. The engine was quite close, but he evidently thought he could get out of the way by stepping on the pilot. The unfortunate man was drawn under the locomotive. Both legs were cut off, and the body was horribly mangled. He lived for a short time, but life soon afterwards expired. The accident occurred at the coal dump, near the Packerton round house. The remains were brought to Lehighton and taken to the undertaking establishment of Kemerer & Swartz, and from there forwarded to his home in White Haven. The deceased was about twenty-two years old and unmarried. In And Around The County. Wm. V. Evans, an old and greatly respected resident of Lansford, died last week at the age of 69 years.

During the last part of his life, his towering personality dominated the intellectual climate of Russia and the world to an unprecedented degree. His work, moreover, continues to be studied and admired. His views on art, literature, morals, politics, and life have never ceased to influence writers and thinkers all over the world. Such interest over the years has produced an immense quantity of books and articles about Tolstoy, his ideas, and his work. In Russia alone their number exceeded ten thousand some time ago (more than 5,500 items were published in the Soviet Union between 1917 and 1957) and con­ tinues to rise.

  • On Insanity. Written in 1910 the Year of Tolstoy's Death and Now Published
    On Insanity Leo Tolstoy 1910 translated by Ludvig Perno C.W. Daniel Co. Ltd., London, 1936 Source: Collection of the State Library of Victoria, Australia I In the course of many months, and particularly of late, I have been receiving daily two or three letters ftJ which young people, especially young ladies, write to me saying that they have 1ecided to do away with themselves. For some reason or other they refer to me, hoping that I, by some advice of mine, shall save them from this. These letters are of three different types. The first, the most common type, is either that of a village schoolmistress who for the sake of serving common people wishes to give up her occupation to go to college, obviously thinking that the standard of her education is not high enough to enlighten the common people, and she imagines her desire to be so strong and elevated that she has decided to do away with herself if ft cannot be realised; of an exalted youth threatening to commit suicide if nobody comes forward to help him to develop his, as he feels, wonderful talents; of an inventor wishing to confer a blessing on mankind; of a poet feeling himself to be a genius; of a young lady preferring to die if she is unable to go to college; of a woman who has fallen in love with the husband of somebody else; or of a man who has fallen in love with a married woman. The writers of these letters differ according to their sex, age, or social position, but they all have one thing in common, namely, the blind, crude egoism which blots out everything else for them except their own personality.

  • A Late Chapter in Tolstoy's Dialogue With
    "THE DIVINE AND THE HUMAN. OR THREE MORE DEATHS": A LATE CHAPTER IN LEO TOLSTOY'S DIALOGUE WITH DEATH Elizabeth W. Trahan, Monterey Institute of International Studies (ret.): Visiting Lecturer, Amherst College On August 8, 1879, three revolutionaries were hanged in Odessa for an attempt on the life of Alexander II. On December 11. Tolstoy listed in his diary "thirteen themes," among them "Execution in Odessa." (PSS 53/170)\ Twenty-five years later he wrote on that theme a story of some fifty pages, which he first called "The Human and the Divine," (PSS 54/204), then "Three More Deaths" (PSS 42/662). and finally liThe Divine and the Human" (Bozhestvennoe i chelovecheskoe] (PSS 76/154). Tolstoy worked on the story for almost three years, from December 1903 to October 1906, calling it "a story in which it is possible as well as necessary to say something important." (PSS 89/26) Nonetheless, there exists only one, not easily accessible, English translation which was published in 1906. 2 Nor has the story received much critical attention. To be sure, "The Divine and the Human" is, as its title suggests, a rather schematic 'Al1 passages marked PSS, followed by volume and page number, are taken from L. N. Tolstoy, Polnoe Sobranie Sochinenii (Moscow 1928-1960), and quoted in my translation. 1The story's publication history is rather curious. Tolstoy had sent copies of the story to England to his close friend and disciple Chertkov, requesting chat he translate and publish it, and also to Gorbunov-Posadov for Krug Chteniia 11, which was to appear in early summer 1906.

  • Tolstoy's Animals
    Society and Animals 17 (2009) 38-52 www.brill.nl/soan Tolstoy’s Animals Josephine Donovan Professor Emerita, University of Maine, 5752 Neville Hall, Orono, ME 04469, USA [email protected] Sent 24 August 2007, Accepted 10 March 2008 Abstract In recent years, critics sensitive to animal issues have begun to theorize a new direction in literary criticism, an animal-centric or animal-standpoint criticism. Such a criticism seeks to examine works of literature from the point of view of how animals are treated therein, often looking to reconstruct the standpoint of the animals in question. Th is article examines a selection of short stories by Leo Tolstoy considering them exemplary from the point of view of animal-standpoint criticism. Keywords literary criticism, animal ethics, Tolstoy Introduction In recent years, critics sensitive to animal issues have begun to theorize a new direction in literary criticism, an animal-centric or animal-standpoint criti- cism.1 Such a criticism seeks to examine works of literature from the point of view of how animals are treated therein, often looking to reconstruct the standpoint of the animals in question. As an ethical and political criticism, animal-standpoint criticism not unlike, in this respect, feminist and Marxist criticism, questions ideologically driven representations of animal fi gures. Where feminist criticism lays bare inherent sexism and Marxist criticism lays bare inherent classism in texts, animal-centric criticism identifi es speciesist representations and formulations. It critiques the fi gurative use of animals where such use is anthropocentric, eliding the subjective character and inde- pendent reality of the animal; in addition, it points up authorial blindness or silence when animals are treated merely as background objects rather than subjective presences.

TOLSTOY AND HIS ART 35 CONCLUSION 49 BIBLIOGRAPHY 52 INTRODUCTION Seldom has an author excited more intense admiration among liter- ary judges for his superb artistic powers and relentless pursuit of self-perfection than Count Lev Nikolayevitch Tolstoy. Critical apprai- sals of Tolstoy are, indeed, imbued with sheer awe of this somewhat mysterious and mystifying giant. Many seem, in fact, to adopt an atti- tude that only Nature, herself, would be adequately equipped to judge, to value, to approve or to condemn the somewhat sensational, highly dramatic Russian literary figure. One critic, for example, says: In the bracing Tolstoyan air, the critic, however addicted to analysis, cannot help doubting his own task, sensing that there is something pre- sumptuous and even unnatural which requires an almost arti- ficial deliberateness of in- tention, in the attempt to dissect an art so wonderfully integrated that, coming under its sway, we grasp it as a whole long before we are able to summon sufficient conscious- ness to examine the arrange- ment and interaction of its i component parts.
