  • Terry Inman Bio.310
    The Known Cravfishes of Arizona: A Summarv Renort Prepared By Terry Inman Bio.310 For Dr. Paul C. Marsh ASU Center for Environmental Studies Introduction The crayfishes ofNorth America display greater diversity in terms of species than any other part ofthe world. Some 338 recognizedtaxa (308 species and 30 subspecies) exist within the United States and Canada (Taylor, C.A. et d,. 1996). At least one species of crayfish is native to every state in the contiguous United States (Hobbs, H.H. Jr. l9S9) except Arizona which claims no species of its own. Until recently Arizona had (from our earliest records) remained void ofthis diverse group of invertebrates. However, sometime within the last 30 years crayfishes have begun to show up in Arizona waters. Some have been intentionally stocked by the Arizona Game and Fish department (AZGFD stocking records l93l - l99l) and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (verbal - MarstU P.C.) as forage for game fish such as trout and large mouth bass. Although the extent ofthe introductions by the USFWS in not known, the AZGFD has reported three sites of introduction (all lakes), one inl97l, and two in 1991. other sources of crayfish introduction have probably been a result of bait bucket introductions by sport fishermen. Although no direct evidence ofthis is known it is perhaps the most reasonable explanation for their wide spread existence. Despite crayfishes having become common fauna in many Arizona waters they have managed to attract little attention from any Federal, Statg or scientific community. The kinds, distribution, and abundance of Arizona's crayfish is unknown, they have not yet been inventoried, or studied.

A megkeresésre az alábbi tájékoztatást adom: A hajó 2012. február 26-án süllyedt el. Azt követően egyesületünk honlapján – egy a hajónak szentelt tematikus aloldalon – rendszeresen tettük közzé a hajóra és a mentésére vonatkozó információkat, képeket, videókat (http://hajosnep.hu/#!/lapok/lap/szoke-tisza-karmentes), amelyekből szinte napi ütemezésben nyomon követhetők a február 26-március 18 között történt események.

  • Tennessee Civil War Trails Program 213 Newly Interpreted Marker
    Tennessee Civil War Trails Program 213 Newly Interpreted Markers Installed as of 6/9/11 Note: Some sites include multiple markers. BENTON COUNTY Fighting on the Tennessee River: located at Birdsong Marina, 225 Marina Rd., Hwy 191 N., Camden, TN 38327. During the Civil War, several engagements occurred along the strategically important Tennessee River within about five miles of here. In each case, cavalrymen engaged naval forces. On April 26, 1863, near the mouth of the Duck River east of here, Confederate Maj. Robert M. White’s 6th Texas Rangers and its four-gun battery attacked a Union flotilla from the riverbank. The gunboats Autocrat, Diana, and Adams and several transports came under heavy fire. When the vessels drove the Confederate cannons out of range with small-arms and artillery fire, Union Gen. Alfred W. Ellet ordered the gunboats to land their forces; signalmen on the exposed decks “wig-wagged” the orders with flags. BLOUNT COUNTY Maryville During the Civil War: located at 301 McGee Street, Maryville, TN 37801. During the antebellum period, Blount County supported abolitionism. In 1822, local Quakers and other residents formed an abolitionist society, and in the decades following, local clergymen preached against the evils of slavery. When the county considered secession in 1861, residents voted to remain with the Union, 1,766 to 414. Fighting directly touched Maryville, the county seat, in August 1864. Confederate Gen. Joseph Wheeler’s cavalrymen attacked a small detachment of the 2nd Tennessee Infantry (U.S.) under Lt. James M. Dorton at the courthouse. The Underground Railroad: located at 503 West Hill Ave., Friendsville, TN 37737.

FOR THE AUTHOR, in the Clerk's Office of the District Court of the United States for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. -o STEREOTYPED BY L. JOHNSON & CO. PRINTED BY LIPPINCOTT & CO. PREFACE. To the soldiers of the Army of the Cumberland, and to their friends at home, the author presents this volume of portraits, sketches, and incidents,— a work undertaken at the solicitation of many friends, with the view of affording pleasure to our soldiers and imparting information to the people, and, if it may be, to secure a fund for the erection of a monument to overlook the battle-field of Stone River, Tennessee, where rest, "unknelled, uncoffined, and unknown," hundreds of American citizens. This work is not intended as a history of the Rebellion, in a general sense, nor even as a detailed account of events occurring' in the history of the Army of the Cumberland. It is simply a collection of sketches and portraits of many of its representative men, and a narration of many interesting events which have transpired within its lines.

  • Stuart Wright Booklet
    Joyner Library Presents Stuart Wright: A Life In Collecting September 7, 2011 A Message from the Dean East Carolina University® Like Tom Douglass, I first met Stuart Wright when I stepped off the train with my wife Sue in Ludlow, England—the English country squire waiting for us soon proved to be a Southern Gentleman in exile. In fact, I think this was confirmed the night STUART WRIGHT: Sue prepared “southern fried chicken” and mashed potatoes. Stuart asked for the recipe after his first helping, feasted on the leftovers for several days, and said it The Badger of Old Street stirred memories in him from long ago. On our short visit to 28 Old Street, Stuart showed and told us as much as we could absorb about the extraordinary collection of southern American literature that he hoped would eventually come to East Carolina University and Joyner Library. I was delighted with what I saw and heard and carefully calculated how much space we would need to house the collection if we could agree on price and terms. Being only acquainted with the work of some of the authors like Robert Penn Warren, Randall Jarrell, and Eudora Welty, I could not truly appreciate the importance of the book collection or the exceptional quality of the many boxes of letters, journals, and manuscripts that comprised the collection. Fortunately, Tom Douglass could and he and Stuart spent many hours poring over the materials and discussing their significance while I could only listen in amazement. My amazement and delight have only increased markedly since the collection has come to Joyner Library.

C. Handy, the African American leader of a dance orchestra, got stuck one night waiting for a train in the hamlet of Tutwiler, Mississippi. With hours to kill and nowhere else to go, Handy fell asleep at the empty depot on a hard wooden bench. When he woke, a ragged black man was sitting next to him, singing about “goin’ where the Southern cross the Dog” and sliding a knife against the strings of a guitar. The musician repeated the line three times and answered it with his guitar. Intrigued, Handy asked what the line meant. It turned out that the tracks of the Yazoo & Mississippi Valley Railroad, which locals called the Yellow Dog, crossed the tracks of the Southern Railroad in the town of Moorehead, where the musician was headed, and he’d put it into a song.
