  • Flora Text 2
    Her Fathers’ Daughter: Flora Stone Mather and Her Gifts to Cleveland Cleveland’s best-known woman philanthropist took no credit for her generosity: “I feel so strongly that I am one of God’s stewards. Large means without effort of mine, have been put into my hands; and I must use them as I know my Heavenly Father would have me, and as my dear earthly father would have me, were he here.” 1 So Flora Stone Mather described the inspirations for her giving: her Presbyterian belief in stewardship - serving (and saving) others - and the example of her father, Amasa Stone. But she expanded her role as dutiful daughter, moving beyond conventional philanthropy into political reform and institution-building. Flora Stone, born in 1852, was the third child of Amasa and Julia Gleason Stone. Her family - parents, brother Adelbert, and sister Clara - moved to Cleveland from Massachusetts in 1851. Her father, a self-taught engineer, built churches, then bridges and railroads, which made his fortune. He arrived in Cleveland as superintendent of the Cleveland, Columbus, and Cincinnati Railroad, which he had built with two partners. He subsequently directed and built other railroad lines and invested in the city’s burgeoning industries and banks. Thanks to its railroads and lake shipping, petroleum refineries, and iron and steel mills, Cleveland would become an industrial giant. In 1858, Stone built an elaborate Italianate mansion on Euclid Avenue, a sign that he had arrived socially and financially. He became an ardent Republican and an enthusiastic supporter of the Union side of the Civil War.

  • Underwater Imaging on the Great Lakes to Locate Deep
    UNDERWATER IMAGING ON THE GREAT LAKES TO LOCATE DEEP WRECKS SARAH BRAULIK MAY 4, 2007 A SENIOR THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN ARCHAEOLOGICAL STUDIES UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-LA CROSSE ABSTRACT Commercial Shipping on the Great Lakes began in 1679 with the arrival of the Griffon; the history of Great Lakes shipwrecks began with this same ship in the same year when she failed to reach port after setting sail out of Washington Island for Niagara. Since this first foundering, there have been an estimated 10,000 shipwrecks on the Great Lakes. The current method for locating these shipwrecks has been to do library research to determine a search area and then use side-scan sonar to locate the ship within that given area. Once the wreckage has been located, SCUBA divers descend on the site to identify the ship. Unfortunately, this method only works within the depths that a person can safely descend and ascend, roughly 400 feet, a relatively small portion of the Great Lakes. Recent technological advances in underwater imaging and sonar has made it possible to explore shipwrecks at depths beyond that which a person equipped with SCUBA gear can withstand, but this technology has not yet been utilized on the Great Lakes. This thesis will explore these new technologies and how they would be beneficial in the location, identification, and mapping of Great Lakes shipwrecks located in deep water. 2 INTRODUCTION On November 17, 1958 the Carl D. Bradley departed for Rogers City, Michigan for what was supposed to be a thirty hour trip.

Every now and then, the discovery of new mineral bearing districts are announced by prospectors, which are developed and put in shape to send out an economic product at record speed. Financial stringency or not, there is always a plenty of money within reach to finance a mining proposition of merit. As a natural consequence, the mineral and metal producing capacity of the country is expanding in a wonderful manner and in practically all directions. The evolution of mining and metallurgy has kept pace with trade and commerce. Progress toward By James L.
