    ROCHESTER HISTORY Edited by Joseph W. Barnes, City Historian Vol. XXXVIII AprilandJuly, 1976 Nos. 2 and 3 The Arson Years Fire Protection, Fire lnsuhnce, and Fire Politics 1908-1910 By Joseph W. Barnes The human fascination with fires and fire-fighting endures through the years. If tragic losses of life and property are still a serious concern, despite modern building codes and fire­ fighting methods, only a small leap of imagination is needed to appreciate how frightening fire could be in the years when even the downtown sections of cities were largely wooden; when spark-generating coal was the major fuel for all purposes; and when hundreds of hay-filled barns were tucked behind houses and commercial establishments. As in other American cities, these conditions prevailed in turn-of-the­ century Rochester. A legendary kerosene lamp started the fire which leveled Chicago in 1871. Thirty or forty years later such lamps were still common in barns, and gas lights could still be found in homes. The incandesccn t lamp was replacing gas, but the rapid introduction of electricity created another hazard until principles of safe wiring were learned.

Published in Student Journal of the Department of Anglophone Studies (Vol. 1, 2018) Of Gay Sinners and Grizzly Saints Fundamentalism in “The May-Pole of Merry Mount” CARINA KEWELOH1 Nathaniel Hawthorne’s stories often depict Puritans as superstitious, intolerant, patriarchal and oppressive, which led to the belief he held a negative attitude towards them. However, “The May-Pole of Merry Mount”2 suggests that this resentment is not specifically directed towards Puritans. Hawthorne’s short story rather exposes the dangers of fundamentalism in general. This essay scrutinizes both the portrayal of the community of Merry Mount and the Puritans in the short story to explore the features of fundamentalism they depict. Finally, the restricting and impairing effects of both fundamentalist communities will be assessed using the example of Edgar and Edith, the young couple at the center of Hawthorne’s tale.

    NOTES JUNE 2004 A MAGAZINE FOR ALUMNI OF THE EASTMAN SCHOOL OF MUSIC FROM THE EDITOR The right “stu≠” Dear Eastman Alumni: We like Notes’ new look, and it seems you do too. Response has been unani- mously favorable; perhaps we should consider a Steve Boerner–David Cowles NOTES presidential ticket for 2008. I’d vote for them; these two artists made “Notes Volume 22, Number 2 nouveau” a pleasure, and I’m glad the pleasure was conveyed in the magazine June 2004 itself. I write the stuff, but they (and our photographers) make it look good! We also had a tremendous response to our “Eastman Alumni on CD” feature; Editor see pages 33¬34. And enough of you commented on different editorial aspects of David Raymond Notes (not always favorably) that we have a “Letters to the Editor” section, which Assistant editor may be a first for us. Christina Casey This issue of Notes is admittedly filled with history, but Susan Conkling’s re- Contributing writers minder of the great women who shaped both American music and Eastman, and Martial Bednar Amy Blum Paul Burgett’s reminder of four black composers who Christine Corrado played an important part in Eastman history, are stories Contributing photographers worth telling. As is the story of the success of Howard Kurt Brownell Hanson’s Merry Mount at the Met in 1934—a remarkable Gelfand-Piper Photography event, when you think about it. I should add a special Bob Klein Photography word of thanks here to David Peter Coppen, the Sibley Carlos Ortiz Don Ver Ploeg/VP Communications Library Archivist, who is always helpful with providing Amy Vetter historical photographs and other materials for Notes, but Photography coordinator outdid himself for these three articles.
