ROBERT AND THOMAS EAMES It is now definitely established that at least two brothers, hY name Eames ( Robert and Thomas) came frOJr, England about 1034; Robert resiclecl first in Charleston. "\lass .. mowd to Charles­ town Yillage, now \\.ohurn, "\lass. "\[any of his des,·enclants may lie found in \\.ohurn and \Yilrnington. Thumas li\·ed at Declh,rn1 ancl finally settled at Framingham "\Iass. It may he stated that some studenb of the ,mliject engaged in re~earch are of the opinion that John nf \Yoliurn 1630, Henry of Boston and .\nthony of Charlest,;ii and Hingham 1(,3-1- and later of "\Iarshfield were brothers of the alKJYe Robert and Thomas. From the history of the Sprague family hy George \Y. Cham­ lierlain 1023, we draw that .\nthony Eames of "\[arshfield :.\fa~s. was a snn nf Thomas and :.fillicent Eames of Fordingt(Jll, :,;t. Georg·e, Dorset, Englancl. The names of .\nthom·'s brothers anrl sisters are giyen and no mention is macle of a Robert or a Thonns in the list. This together with other information at hand leads t,1 the conclusion that .\nthony of :.Iarshfield. "\Iass. was not a brother to the ahoYe Rohert and Thomas of \Yolmrn and Fram­ ingham respectiYely. As to the source or root of the word, records w<1rrant the statement that the name is from Heismes or Exmas, Xormandy. The farnilv of DeHeimes descends from the ancient Yiscount of Heimes as early as 978. The name occurs prominently in ancient records ancl is spelled Eimes, Emes, Ems. Emas, Emis.

  • Toscanini IV – La Scala and the Metropolitan Opera
    Toscanini IV – La Scala and the Metropolitan Opera Trying to find a balance between what the verbal descriptions of Toscanini’s conducting during the period of roughly 1895-1915 say of him and what he actually did can be like trying to capture lightning in a bottle. Since he made no recordings before December 1920, and instrumental recordings at that, we cannot say with any real certainty what his conducting style was like during those years. We do know, from the complaints of Tito Ricordi, some of which reached Giuseppe Verdi’s ears, that Italian audiences hated much of what Toscanini was doing: conducting operas at the written tempos, not allowing most unwritten high notes (but not all, at least not then), refusing to encore well-loved arias and ensembles, and insisting in silence as long as the music was being played and sung. In short, he instituted the kind of audience decorum we come to expect today, although of course even now (particularly in Italy and America, not so much in England) we still have audiences interrupting the flow of an opera to inject their bravos and bravas when they should just let well enough alone. Ricordi complained to Verdi that Toscanini was ruining his operas, which led Verdi to ask Arrigo Boïto, whom he trusted, for an assessment. Boïto, as a friend and champion of the conductor, told Verdi that he was simply conducting the operas pretty much as he wrote them and not allowing excess high notes, repeats or breaks in the action. Verdi was pleased to hear this; it is well known that he detested slowly-paced performances of his operas and, worse yet, the interpolated high notes he did not write.
