  • John Linnell, RA, HRSA, RWS - “Tending the Flock” - Ref 2217
    John Linnell, RA, HRSA, RWS - “Tending the Flock” - Ref 2217 An evocative study into the quintessence of light and sky, shepherds and their flock look out over Southampton Water, an image captured by one of the 19th century’s greatest artists - John Linnell. As with many of his great works, principally the Biblically inspired pictures, the movement of light across the foreground is the source of drama – in this work the sky becomes almost an intruder over the land. Brought up in an artistic environment, Johns father, James, was a carver and gilder. The young Linnell’s artistic talents became apparent at an early age and his father was able to capitalise on them setting his son to work producing copies of George Morland (whose works were much in demand), which he was able to sell. John studied under Sir Benjamin West and renowned landscape painter John Varley, and rose to become one of the outstanding landscape painters of the 19th century. Linnell commanded around 1000 guineas for his work, an extraordinary sum; his name and ability being compared to, and often regarded in his day as superior to the likes of Turner, Constable, William Blake and Samuel Palmer. Works by Linnell can be found at the Tate Gallery, Victoria & Albert Museum and the National Portrait Gallery. This painting was exhibited at the Royal Academy’s Exhibition of Old and Modern Masters in 1883, titled Southampton Water. Price: £69,000 Provenance: H.J.Turner Esq. Stockleigh House, Regents Park, London. Latterly for the last 20 years, private collection Cambridge. Artist & Painting: John Linnell, British, (1792 - 1882) –“Tending the Flock” – signed and dated 1866 centre right.

    IN THE COURT OF CHANCERY OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE In re PEPSIAMERICAS, INC. : Consolidated C.A. No. 4530-VCS SHAREHOLDERS LITIGATION : VERIFIED CONSOLIDATED CLASS ACTION COMPLAINT Plaintiffs Philadelphia Public Employees Retirement System (“Philadelphia PERS”), The General Retirement System of the City of Detroit (“Detroit General”), The Police and Fire Retirement System of the City of Detroit (“Detroit P&F”), the City of Ann Arbor Employees’ Retirement System (“Ann Arbor”) and Beverly Rosman (“Rosman,” and collectively with Philadelphia PERS, Detroit General, Detroit P&F and Ann Arbor, “Plaintiffs”), by and through their undersigned counsel, upon knowledge as to themselves and upon information and belief as to all other matters, allege as follows: NATURE OF THE ACTION 1. Plaintiffs are holders of common stock of PepsiAmericas, Inc. (“PAS” or the “Company”). Plaintiffs bring this action individually and as a class action on behalf of all holders of PAS common stock other than the defendants and their affiliates. Plaintiffs seek injunctive and other equitable relief in connection with the proposal of PepsiCo, Inc. (“PepsiCo”) to acquire all of the PAS’ outstanding shares that PepsiCo does not already own for a combination of cash and stock valuing PAS at $23.27 per share (the “Proposed Merger”). 2. PepsiCo simultaneously offered to acquire Pepsi Bottling Group, Inc. (“PBG” and with PAS, the “Companies”) at $29.50 per share, and has made consummation of a merger with either bottler contingent on consummating a merger with the other. PepsiCo’s offers are timed and structured to favor PepsiCo and promise a paltry 17.1 percent premium over the closing prices of the Companies’ stock on April 17, 2009, the last trading day prior to PepsiCo’s announcement of the Proposed Merger.

These ancient land grants, deeds, wills, mar- riages, and church and cemetery records contain the history of the northwest Carolina frontier, the doorway to the South and West. Rowan County originally included practically all of central and northwestern North Carolina and extended westward to the Mississippi River, having no western boundary line. While the vast amount of public and other records are in existence in this region, there is no information here to indicate whence these settlers came and why they came.

    SONS OF UNION VETERANS OF THE CIVIL WAR Lt. Commander Edward Lea U.S.N. – Camp Number 2 Harriet Lane *************************************************************************************** Summer 2007 Volume 14 Number 2 ************************************************************************************** From the Commander’s Tent Here we go again. Its summer with all the bustle and activity associated with the season. School is out, everyone’s looking forward to their vacations and the pace of life in some ways is even more frantic than during the other seasons of the year. The Camp just completed one of its most important evolutions - Memorial Day. We had nine Brothers at the National Cemetery, with eight in period uniform. I think this is the best uniformed turnout we’ve ever had, at least in my memory. We are also in the process of forming a unit of the Sons of Veteran’s Reserve. We have ten prospective members from our Camp. Brother Dave LaBrot is the prospective commanding officer. All we are waiting for is for the James J. Byrne Camp #1 to send down their seven applications so the paperwork can be turned in. We should then soon have the unit up and running. I hope that even more Brothers will join as we get rolling. I have been watching with great interest the way the level of awareness of and the desire to learn about the Civil War in particular, and the 1860’s in general, has been growing throughout the nation during the last few years. In part this may be because we are coming up upon another milestone period (the 150th anniversary). But also I think more people are realizing the importance of the events of that era and the extent that we are still being affected by them today.

  • Microfilm Publication M617, Returns from U.S
    Publication Number: M-617 Publication Title: Returns from U.S. Military Posts, 1800-1916 Date Published: 1968 RETURNS FROM U.S. MILITARY POSTS, 1800-1916 On the 1550 rolls of this microfilm publication, M617, are reproduced returns from U.S. military posts from the early 1800's to 1916, with a few returns extending through 1917. Most of the returns are part of Record Group 94, Records of the Adjutant General's Office; the remainder is part of Record Group 393, Records of United States Army Continental Commands, 1821-1920, and Record Group 395, Records of United States Army Overseas Operations and Commands, 1898-1942. The commanding officer of every post, as well ad commanders of all other bodies of troops such as department, division, brigade, regiment, or detachment, was required by Army Regulations to submit a return (a type of personnel report) to The Adjutant General at specified intervals, usually monthly, on forms provided by that office. Several additions and modifications were made in the form over the years, but basically it was designed to show the units that were stationed at a particular post and their strength, the names and duties of the officers, the number of officers present and absent, a listing of official communications received, and a record of events. In the early 19th century the form used for the post return usually was the same as the one used for regimental or organizational returns.
