Also four proposals to the honored Parliament and Counsel of State, Touching the way to Propagate the Gospel of Christ (with small charge and great safety)both in Old England and New.

Editor's Introduction: To The Reader Of This Work: It is usually difficult for me to find fitting words whenever I try to write comments on works that I read. This work, however, showed me so much that I am faced with the difficulty of not being too lengthy in my introduction. As you read this work, consider what the prevalent societal attitudes were of the majority of people and the Government of the Colony of Massachusetts. I wasn’t necessarily surprised at their attitudes, but rather at the power they used and the lengths to which they went to proliferate them. In stark contrast, consider the attitudes of John Clarke and Obediah Holmes. Under such conditions as these, these men never demonstrate a spiteful or angry spirit, but rather denounce those who do.

THE FEMALE BRANCHES ONE GENERATION AFTER THE CLARK NAME IS LOST IN MARRIAGE. By JULIUS GAY, HARTFORD, CONN.: PRESS jOF the case, LOCKWOOD & BRAINARD COMPANY. ^\3-' 1883. ^A^Vo PREFACE. This genealogy of the descendants of John Clark of Farm- ington has been compiled at the request of Dennis Woodruff Clark, Esq., of Portland, Maine, a descendant of the sixth generation. I have aimed to copy all dates from contempo- rary records, but whenever I have been obliged to rely on more recent testimony, or when authorities differ, I have given my authority. In collecting the very few scattered records of the early members of the family from old bibles and wills, and moss-covered gravestones, I have been con- stantly reminded of that valley of dry bones in Holy Writ " in which the prophet was asked Can these dry bones live ?" Doubtless the reader will find the fragments dry enough and lifeless enough, but if he finds little but a carefully joined " skeleton, it shall not be built up of unrelated parts," such as critics claim to find in some now famous statues. Here, at the outset, we meet the great difficulty of the work. The family of Clark, or Clerk as the name was often spelled, was a numerous one, as are most of those named from occupations, such as Smith, Cook, Miller, Porter, and numerous others.

It is not too late. Scores of people have supported, encouraged, and inspired me during my journey from a depressed and hopeless, aging couch potato to a determined and eager go-getter who for the first time in a long time is genuinely excited about the future. Hats off to the entire pole vault community, an incredible group of folks from all around the world who have touched my life in so many ways, and are too numerous to mention individually. Having said that, I have to single out my fellow Houston native, Scarborough High School graduate, dear friend and brother, Bubba Sparks, who for some reason decided to take me under his inspirational wing, so to speak, and help me transform myself and rejuvenate my life. I’m forever grateful. And my loving wife, Katie, whose undying support through all my ups and downs over the past 20+ years makes everything possible.

  • John W. Clark of Nushagak, Alaska, 1846–1896 U.S
    National Park Service — U.S. Department of the Interior Lake Clark National Park and Preserve Times of and Life The JOHN W. CLARK (1846–1896) was one of the fi rst Euroamerican residents of Alaska, arriving at St. Michael with the Western Union Telegraph Company Russo-American Expedition to build a worldwide telegraph line in 1866. John W. Clark W. John Th e Life and Times of He was a distinguished trader on the Yukon, Kuskokwim and Nushagak Rivers between 1868 and 1896. Clark lived at Nushagak nearly twenty years and was a founder of the world-renowned Bristol Bay commercial salmon fi shing industry. He was an entrepreneurial fur trader and merchant and likely the fi rst English speaking resident of the Bristol Bay region. Clark was a close friend of the Native people of western John W. Clark Alaska and traveled widely about the region by dog sled and baidarka. He married and established a large extended family in western Alaska. Despite having Lake Clark, Lake Clark Pass and Clarks Point named after him, very little is known about Clark’s early life. For the fi rst time, some of Clark’s enigmatic life is of Nushagak, revealed in this biography of a pioneer of nineteenth century western Alaska. September 26, 1891: At Nushagak…there has lived for nearly a score of years a man whose personal qualifi cations for a worldly career, whose reading, breeding, manly characteristics, and genial traits have been a loss to the world for all time. I refer to John W. Clark. His object in devoting himself to such a 1846–1896 Alaska, hermit life has not been material gain, but his peculiar, thoughtful qualities of mind have given him that taste for solitude and the natural grandeur of Alaska which has been displayed by many other brilliant men who have visited that mysterious Territory.

  • A Letter from the Chairs Honourable Delegates, Welcome to the Model
    A Letter from the Chairs Honourable delegates, Welcome to the Model City Hall 2016 Police Board Committee. As chairs of a government institution essential to maintaining municipal security, it is our pleasure to explore the challenges currently being confronted by the Toronto Police Service, specifically carding and police brutality. It is our wish that by representing members of the Police Board, Model City Hall delegates will revamp their perspective on policing in Toronto and be empowered to increase their involvement with regards to municipal issues. This will be reflected in the debate, where delegates will advance conflicting interests to gain an understanding of how the municipal government functions. The conclusions drawn by this debate and its corresponding resolutions will be forwarded to municipal officials, encouraging them to take youth into consideration throughout the decision making process. During Model City Hall 2015, one of us co-chaired the Transit Committee and had the honour of nuking the Gardiner Expressway. The thought of repeating similarly mischievous antics and enjoying this experience with other delegates makes me excited to chair the Police Board for 2016, while maintaining the seriousness of debate. Furthermore, the openness to interpretation and lack of absolutes with regards to municipal issues such as carding and police brutality has always been considered intriguing For instance, when is carding considered racism as opposed to a form of risk management? Likewise, when is responding with force considered police brutality as opposed to protecting other citizens? The answers to these questions are uncertain, and we hope you will join us in finding them.
