Roche, esq., stating that he has paid £400 to his credit at the National Provincial Bank on account of Harbour Dues for the quarter ending 31 Dec. 1880. Less timber has been imported; shipment of slate remains stable and more by rail. Nett produce will be about £10 less. Good prospect for the foreign slate trade. 4. 1881 April 23 COPY LETTER: Wm. E. Morris, Harbour Office, Port Madoc to F.W.A. Roche, esq., Tregunter, stating that he has paid £400 to his credit at the National Provincial Bank on account of Harbour Duesfor the quarter ending 31 March 1881. £100 dues on slates still nncollected. Expenditure will be greater this month on account of income tax payments etc., but nett produce will exceed last March quarter. They have commenced putting up the fenders on the pier. Slate trade is not very brisk. 6. 1881 July 30 COPY LETTER: W.E. Morris, Harbour Office, Port­ madoc to F.W.A. Roche, esq., Tregunter, stating that he has paid £600 to his credit at the National Provincial Bank on account of Harbour Dues for the quarter ending 30 June 1881.

Balance of £100 yet to come from several of the slate proprietors. Slate trade is good this month. German merchants are sending In extensive orders fearing that Bismark will put duty on slates imported Into the country. 8. 1882 July 23 COPY LETTER: Wm. E. Morris, Harbour Office, Port Madoc to F.W. Roche, esq., Tregunter, Talgarth, Brecon, stating that he has paid £650 to his credit at the National Provincial Bank on account of Harbour Dues for the quarter ending 30 June 1882.

Roche, esq., stating that he has paid £550 to his credit at the National Provincial Bank on account of Harbour Dues for the quarter ending 30th Sept..

He is afraid that he willbse money on the [tolls] and so asks whether he could have the gate for £160 next year. The Bala-Trawsfynydd Railway has much reduced the number of carts passing through. The shipment of slates is pro­ gressing for the Hamburg and Baltic trade which is their principal stronghold as no railways can touch that trade. The bad weather has caused further damage to the ballast bankwhich needs to be repaired. 11. 1883 June 5 COPY LETTER: Wm. E. Morris, 24 Lombard St., Portmadoc to F.W.A. Roche, esq., Tregunter, sending him a plan of the proposed new hay house which he has asked him to erect at Penamser on the portion of land below the Cricoieth Road.

Roche, esq., informing him that he has paid £500 to his credit at the National Provincial Bank on account of the quarter ending 30 Sept.. Complains that the shipment of slates has greatly fallen off in comparison to what it was in 1872, nearly 5,000 less, so the dues on vessels have decreased. The goods per the Rebecca and other vessels have kept up well. The coal trade is also decreasing on account of the railway communication to Festinlog having two lines against one. States that business 'is now very dull, scarcely any slates being shipped'. Foreign trade fell off earlier than in previous years also. 13. 1884 May 12 COPY LETTER: Wm. E. Morris, Harbour Office, Portmadoc to F.W. Roche, esq., Tregunter, Talgarth, Brecon, stating that he has paid £450 to his credit at the National Provincial Bank on account of Harbour Dues for the quarter ending 31 March 1884.

Morris, T^rtmadoo to IF.W.A.] Roche, stating that he has paid £590 to his credit at the National Provincial Bank on account of Harbour Dues for the quarter ending 30 Sept. 1884. Imports are less due to the steam mill being under repairfor the last four months and customers having their flour by rail. Export of slate has been very good. 15. 1885 Feb. 4 COPY LETTER: Wm. E. Morris, Harbour Office, Portmadoc to F.W.A. Roche, esq., stating that he has paid £300 to his credit at the National Provincial Bank on account of Harbour Dues.

E. Morris], Harbour Office, Portmadoc to F.W. Roche, esq., Tregunter, Brecon, stating that he has paid £500 to his credit on account of Harbour Dues ending 31 March 1885.

    Editorial UR Autumnal Meeting will be held at Manchester on Wednesday, 16th October, at 4 p.m., in the Hall attached to Cavendish Church. Papers are expected from Professor OG. Lyon Turner, M.A., on '' Congregationalism and the Confessors of 1662" ; and from Mr. A. Peel, M.A., B.Litt., on some fruits of his researches into Elizabethan Puritanism. Our Annual Meeting was held on 8th May ; the attendance was meagre. The officers were unanimously reappointed, with thanks for past services; and the Rev. W. Pierce was associated with the secretariat, The rest of the proceedings were conversational, dealing with our future work and the best means of increasing our membership. We note with regret the decease of two of our oldest members; Rev. H. Shaw, of Urmston, who in 1901 read an instructive paper on the rise and growth of Congregationalism in Manchester ; and Mr. John Scamell, of Westbury, from whom we have more than once received interesting communications. The 250th Anniversary of the Act of Uniformity has been duly recognized by most ofthe churches which originated in the labours of the ejected ministers, and united commemorations are in pro­ spect. But it must have been felt by all who are old enough to remember the celebration of fifty years ago, that there has been no such enthusiasm as marked the Bicentenary in 1862. This, however, can excite no surprise. The Bicentenary followed close on a great religious revival ; and it was very properly used for the promotion of schemes of Church extension, which were then greatly needed. A few figures will shew how fruitful was the impulse thus generated.

Forms Appendix B Scanning Sources Appendix C Target Addresses Appendix D Graph's Appendix E Sample P.O.P. Package North Wales Police ( UK ) Gwynedd Division Profile of the Division The mountainous heartland of Wales, and of the County of Gwynedd in particular has long been recognised as being of special significance because of its spectacular scenery and cultural traditions. Its dramatic beauty, however, is not - and has not been for many generations - completely natural, but is rather a blend of the forces of nature and the hand of man, both of which continue to shape its development. It is an area steeped in great history, but nevertheless subject of national contemporary socio-economic pressures, and the effects of a vibrant tourist industry. Gwynedd covers by far the largest geographical area (629,000 acres) of the six Unitary Authorities in North Wales, and it extends from the City of Bangor in the North to the Dovey Bridge near Machynlleth in the South, and from Aberdaron near the tip of the Lleyn Peninsula in the west to Abergwyngregyn in the East. (The Gwynedd Police Divisional boundary is coterminous with the limits of the Gwynedd Council Unitary Authority area). Gwynedd's neighbouring Unitary Authorities (and Police Divisions) are Anglesey to the North, and Conwy and Denbighshire to the East, whilst its Southern and South Eastern borders mark the boundary between the North Wales and Dyfed-Powys Police areas.

  • S. Price Patchwork History : Tracing Artworlds in the African Diaspora Essay on Interpretations of Visual Art in Societies of the African Diaspora
    S. Price Patchwork history : tracing artworlds in the African diaspora Essay on interpretations of visual art in societies of the African diaspora. Author relates this to recent shifts in anthropology and art history/criticism toward an increasing combining of art and anthropology and integration of art with social and cultural developments, and the impact of these shifts on Afro-American studies. To exemplify this, she focuses on clothing (among Maroons in the Guianas), quilts, and gallery art. She emphasizes the role of developments in America in these fabrics, apart from just the African origins. In: New West Indian Guide/ Nieuwe West-Indische Gids 75 (2001), no: 1/2, Leiden, 5-34 This PDF-file was downloaded from http://www.kitlv-journals.nl SALLY PRICE PATCHWORK HISTORY: TRACING ARTWORLDS IN THE AFRICAN DIASPORA This paper considers interpretations of visual art in societies of the African diaspora, setting them within the context of recent theoretical shifts in the dis- ciplines of anthropology and art history/criticism. I will be arguing for the relevance to Afro-American studies of these broader disciplinary changes, which have fundamentally reoriented scholarship on arts that, for the most part, fall outside of what Joseph Alsop (1982) has dubbed "The Great Tradi- tions." Toward that end, I begin with a general assessment of these theoretical shifts (Part 1: Anthropology and Art History Shake Hands) before moving into an exploration of their impact on Afro-American studies (Part 2: Mapping the African-American Artworld).
