  • The Tenth Edition of Our Newsletter
    Edition 10 Monday 25th May 2020 Welcome to the Tenth Edition of our Newsletter It’s been a funny week, weather-wise, we seem to be going from one extreme to the other. I blame my husband Tony , for creating a beautiful seating area at the top of our garden, his ‘solarium’ and of course, it’s not been sunny since! I have received a suggestion from a member that perhaps we should have a ‘letters to the editor’ page. Where you can give feedback on articles, comment, say what you like or don’t like or just let us know how you feel. This could hopefully create a discussion forum. Please let me know if you think this is a good idea. Send in any articles, jokes, interesting news or anything you might be of interest to other members – especially any tips on keeping busy or any community news. I would like to say a big thank you to everyone who has contributed to this issue. Please send any contributions to Karen: [email protected] 1 From our Chairperson, Franca Hello All So the Government is relaxing lockdown a bit on Thursday 28th May. Having listened to ‘The Plan’ I'm not seeing much change for me in Phase 1 at least. I still can't see my grandchildren as they are too young to understand social distancing. Other than that I'm not tempted to go and queue for hours at a garden centre and I have enough places to walk near my house. Meeting up with one other person outside but maintaining social distancing doesn't appeal to me.

  • To Milford, Via Shawnee and Bushkill. Mr. Dutot Predicted at the Time That
    27 0 MONROE COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA to Milford, via Shawnee and Bushkill. Mr. Dutot predicted at the time that the mail would be brought from Easton on four-horse coaches, which prediction he lived to see fulfilled; and then again foretold its delivery in a railway coach, which became an established fact in the year 1857, sixteen years after his death. On the 22nd of January, 1854, a Presbyterian Church was organized at the Delaware Water Gap, to be called "the Church of the Mountain." The Rev. Horatio S. Howell was the first pastor and was greatly beloved by his people. He built the Glenwood House for a hoys' boarding-school in 1854-55. William and Clayton McMichael, of Philadelphia; Judge John N. Stewart, of Trenton and Hon. John B. Storm, of Stroudsburg, were among the pupils at this "Classical School." The church edifice was commenced in July, 1853, and was dedicated on the 29th of August, 1854. The con- gregation are greatly indebted to Mrs. Caroline E. G. Peale, a niece of Stephen Girard, to Dr. John Marshall Paul, of Belvidere and Matthew Baldwin, of Philadelphia, for their liberal assistance in erecting the church and in the deep interest manifested by them in the spiritual welfare of the community. Mr. Howell continued as pastor until March, 1862, when he was chosen chaplain of the Nineteenth Regiment, Penn- sylvania Volunteers and was killed by a rebel soldier, while attending to the sick and wounded at the hospital in Gettys- burg, July 1st, 1863. Samuel Alsop took possession of the Glenwood House soon after Mr.

Seattle is fortunate that its neighborhoods and communities enjoy a relatively high degree of safety and stability. The Panel recognizes that this is due, in large part, to the dedication of Seattle police officers. The majority of these officers work day in and day out, forging bonds with residents and successfully improving communities in which they serve. Most are rarely subject to any form of disciplinary complaint. Similarly, the Panel recognizes the work of the current and former Office

  • The Laterwriting of Abraham Fornander, 1870-1887 A
    523 UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI'llIBRARY "A TRUSTWORTHY HISTORICAL RECORD": THE LATERWRITING OF ABRAHAM FORNANDER, 1870-1887 A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI'I IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF EDUCATION IN EDUCATIONAL FOUNDATIONS MAY 2004 By Pamela Haight Thesis Committee: Eileen Tamura, Chairperson Gay Garland Reed Vilsoni Hereniko ABSTRACT Using a post-colonial framework, this thesis examines the later research and writing ofAbraham Fornander. The paper addresses the politics, religion, and society that informed Fornander's research and writing, then focuses more closely on his book, An Account ofthe Polynesian Race and international response to it. Fornander's tenacity in promoting his Western worldview and his efforts to advance his career infused his writings and, in the end, served to overshadow existing indigenous language and culture, hastening deterioration ofboth. Utilizing correspondence, early writing for newspapers, and other archival information, the paper demonstrates his attempts to attain authentic status for himselfand his work. Though inconclusive in terms ofproving Fornander's complicity with colonialism, the thesis presents another viewing ofone man's work and begs a previously hidden discussion. 111 TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction 1 Purpose ofthe study 7 Methodology 10 Background to the study 13 Language and Colonization , 15 Representing Others 17 Collecting Cultures 21 19th Century Hawai'i 25 Abraham Fomander 30 Fomander's Newswriting 34 Fomander's Philological Research 50 Response to An Account ofthe Polynesian Race 61 Discussion and implications 75 Postscript 78 Appendix A: Letter from Rollin Daggett to Abraham Fomander 82 Appendix B: Letter from Abraham Fomander to Rollin Daggett.

  • You Can Make History Live!
    Washington History Day Topic Guide You can make history live! History Day is a contest for students that encourages the use of primary sources to get an up-close and personal view of an historical event. More than finding a summary in an encyclopedia or locating some pictures on the web, primary sources work to illustrate your topic from a first person point of view. And while you can find primary sources online, the real thrill of historical research comes from holding actual documents from that time in your hands! By doing your own research, asking and answering key historical questions you can become an expert on a topic and tell its story through a History Day project. The phrase “it isn’t just a day…it’s an experience” defines History Day. You become the historian! Extend the walls of the classroom into archives, college libraries and manuscripts collections, museums and other places that hold the information that you will need to interpret your topic. Learn more about your own family and community history, or some other topic that really matters to you. Use this Topic Guide to search for subjects within Pacific Northwest history that are of interest to you and locate primary source documents on those topics in nearby archives or libraries. You can browse for subjects in the following ways: 2019-20 Theme Overview: Breaking Barriers in History Explore topics that support the 2019-20 History Day Theme: Breaking Barriers in History • Browse by Subject Look at general topics in PNW History and then find specific issues you can investigate further • Browse by Time Period Find specific topics broken down by era (examples: 1800s, 1940s) • Browse by Library or Archives Use this method if you want to find out what collections are available at a specific archives or library You'll also want to make sure that any topic you select really reflects this year's theme.
