They were an accomplished group that included a prominent lawyer who codifi ed the laws of states and nations, a four-term senator in the Massachusetts State Legislature and its president for three years, a U.S. Supreme Court justice, a minister who traveled the world speaking and writing about his experiences for a national audience and a fi nancier and entrepreneur who successfully connected America and England with the fi rst telegraph cable across the Atlantic. Many of their descendents also would attend Williams, including one today who is a member of the Class of 2008. The family planted its roots in America in 1632 with the arrival of Zechariah Field, who emigrated from England and settled outside Boston. Zechariah helped to found Hartford, Conn., in 1639 and 20 years later traveled up the Connecticut River Valley, settling in Northampton and Hatfi eld, Mass.

  • Cyrus West Field: Breaking Barriers in Intercontinental Communication
    Cyrus West Field: Breaking Barriers in Intercontinental Communication with the Transatlantic Telegraph Cable Cameron Blair, Brayden Sparks, Elijah Bandy Junior Division Group Website Process Paper: 410 words Blair, Sparks, Bandy 1 When we started thinking about ideas for NHD, we were pretty sure we wanted a technology-focused topic. Our research led us to learn about the Transatlantic Telegraph Cable. We thought it was interesting that instead of being just a brand-new technology, it greatly enhanced an older one. It worked with the telegraph to send long-distance messages across the Atlantic Ocean. After we researched it more, we decided we wanted it to be our topic for NHD since it broke barriers in intercontinental communication. When we first started researching the Transatlantic Telegraph Cable, we began with general but trustworthy sources to understand the topic as a whole. Overall, the the Library of Congress website helped the most, especially by providing most of our primary source images. Another useful website we used was called Atlantic-Cable, it gave a lot of primary sources, and first-hand accounts of the process and creation of the cable. We decided to do a website as our category since two of us had already created a website for NHD last year. When we did it before, we really enjoyed researching and constructing a website, so we wanted to try again. However, when we tried out the new website platform, we found out that NHDWebCentral was more difficult to use than Weebly was last year. We just took things slowly Blair, Sparks, Bandy 2 and spent a lot of time trying to master it.

Appendix: Petition to Annexation into Wayzata, 1956… 44 INTRODUCTION THE HISTORY OF BUSHAWAY ROAD AND ITS NEIGHBORHOOD documents the early history of the road and settlement of the neighborhood. The research was conducted and prepared by Irene Stemmer, of the Wayzata Heritage Preservation Board (HPB)1 as a means of preserving the history of the Bushaway Road and its neighborhood. We began with a history of the road. Thanks to Nancy Kehmeier, who located the original 1858 surveyor’s map of the “Shakopee to Dayton” road, we knew in 2008 that County Road 101 (Bushaway Road) was a 150 year old road. Unfortunately, just being 150 years old was not enough. Historian Bob Frame of Mead & Hunt reviewed the history of the road and deemed it ineligible for consideration as a “historic road” due to the changes over the years to the surface. So we stopped the presses and celebrated our 150 year old road.2 The next step was to document the history of the neighborhood. The Bushaway and West Holdridge land was annexed to Wayzata in 1956 which was after many of the early histories were written about our city, so where do you start? The starting point became the “Architectural History Evaluation of Locust Hills Estate by Andrew J.

  • Laying the First Transatlantic Cable
    PT-2013: Coastal and Ocean Engineering ENGI.8751 Undergraduate Student Forum Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science, Memorial University, St. john’s, NL, Canada March, 2013 Paper Code. (PT-2013 - Alexander) Laying the First Transatlantic Cable Matthew Alexander Memorial University of Newfoundland St. John’s, NL, Canada [email protected] ABSTRACT In the early 1800s the electrical telegraph was developed to transmit written messages through a wire. By 1850 there was a submarine telegraph cable laid beneath the English Channel followed by a cable across the Cabot Strait in 1856. By this time Cyrus West Field formed the Atlantic Telegraph Company with the purpose of laying the first transatlantic telegraph cable. The telegraph cable was intended to reduce the time required to send messages across the ocean. Previously, it would take 10 days to cross the Atlantic Ocean by ship to deliver a message, but with a telegraph cable it would take only minutes. The cable began to be laid in 1857 off the coast of Ireland where the cable broke over the telegraph plateau which is over 3000m deep. Following this failure construction was abandoned for the year and the ships; HMS Agamemnon and USS Niagara were refitted for a second attempt. Three more failures occurred in June of 1858 where a maximum of 300 km of cable was laid before failure. Finally, on July 29 1858 the cable was spliced in the middle of the ocean and the ends of the cables reached Trinity Bay, Newfoundland and Knightstown, Ireland on August 4th and 5th respectively. The first message was sent on August 16th 1858 from Queen Victoria to US President Buchanan and took 16 hours to send.

    PRESIDENTIAL ADDRESS J Neurosurg 127:1203–1212, 2017 THE 2017 AANS PRESIDENTIAL ADDRESS A world of innovation Frederick A. Boop, MD Department of Neurosurgery, University of Tennessee Health Science Center; and Semmes-Murphey Neurologic & Spine Institute, Memphis, Tennessee The 2016 scientific meeting of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS) focused on the theme “A World of Innovation.” In his presidential address, 2016 AANS President Frederick Boop compared the historical develop- ment of the specialty of neurological surgery with that of the development of global communications. In the early years, general surgeons training in the United States would spend post-residency time abroad learning from surgical masters in Europe and other places. Since Harvey Cushing’s day, neurosurgeons from around the world continue to travel abroad, with many now coming to America for training at centers of excellence. Current clinical practice is defined by multi-national, multi-center clinical trials, and the AANS subsidiary NeuroPoint Alli- ance has positioned itself to serve as an international center for the oversight of such trials. The Neurosurgery Research & Education Foundation and the Journal of Neurosurgery Publishing Group have made it possible for a neurosurgeon anywhere with Internet access to learn relevant surgical anatomy, learn new neurosurgical procedures, and watch mas- ters in the field perform operations via high-definition surgical videos at no cost via learning platforms such as the Rho- ton Collection, the Neurosurgical Atlas, and Neurosurgical Focus video supplements. At the same time, patients are now traveling abroad to seek medical specialty care. Although the globalization of health care poses certain threats, it also presents neurosurgeons with a world of opportunities.
