DUTTON AND COMPANY LONDON : ARTHUR L. HUMPHREYS 1919 SECOND EDITION REVISED AND ENLARGED PREFACE The first edition of A St. Helena Whos Wlio was limited to one hundred and fifty copies, for it was felt that the book could appeal only to those who were students of the period of Napoleon's captivity in St. Helena. The author soon found, however, that the edition was insuffi- cient to meet the demand, and he was obliged, with regret, to inform many who desired to possess the book that the issue was exhausted. In the present edition the original form in which the work appeared has been retained, but fresh material has been included, and many corrections have been made which, it is hoped, will render the book more useful. vu CONTENTS PAQI Introduction ....... 1 The Island or St. Helena and its Administration . 7 Military ....... 8 Naval ....... 9 Civil ....... 10 The Population of St. Helena in 1820 . .15 The Expenses of Administration in St. Helena in 1817 15 The Residents at Longwood . .16 Topography— Principal Residences . .19 The Regiments in St. Helena . .22 The 53rd Foot Regiment (2nd Battalion) . 22 The 66th Foot Regiment (2nd Battalion) . 26 The 66th Foot Regiment (1st Battalion) . 29 The 20th Foot Regiment .

  • The Life of George Borrow by Herbert Jenkins</H1>
    The Life of George Borrow by Herbert Jenkins The Life of George Borrow by Herbert Jenkins This etext was produced by David Price, email [email protected], from the 1912 John Murray edition. THE LIFE OF GEORGE BORROW by Herbert Jenkins PREFACE During the whole of Borrow's manhood there was probably only one period when he was unquestionably happy in his work and content with his surroundings. He may almost be said to have concentrated into the seven years (1833-1840) that he was employed by the British and Foreign Bible Society in Russia, Portugal and Spain, a lifetime's energy and resource. From an unknown hack-writer, who hawked about unsaleable translations of Welsh and Danish bards, a travelling tinker and a vagabond Ulysses, he became a person of considerable importance. His name was acclaimed with praise and enthusiasm at page 1 / 665 Bible meetings from one end of the country to the other. He developed an astonishing aptitude for affairs, a tireless energy, and a diplomatic resourcefulness that aroused silent wonder in those who had hitherto regarded him as a failure. His illegal imprisonment in Madrid nearly brought about a diplomatic rupture between Great Britain and Spain, and later his missionary work in the Peninsula was referred to by Sir Robert Peel in the House of Commons as an instance of what could be achieved by courage and determination in the face of great difficulties. Those seven rich and productive years realised to the full the strange talents and unsuspected abilities of George Borrow's unique character.

WHAT IS THE UNIVERSITY OF VILNIUS? It is a paradoxically simple question. Though it will not seem so simple if we ask another question — what is Vilnius? Today it is the capital of the Republic of Lithuania, a member state of the European Union. However, at the beginning of the 19th century, the epoch of great importance to us, it was turned into a provincial town of the Russian Empire. Prior to that, for a long time, it was the capital of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, which existed in the 13th–18th century. In the 20th century, after the reestablishment of the Polish and Lithuanian states, it did not become the capital of Lithuania (the city of Kaunas became its provisional capital); Vilnius was incorporated into Poland and became a city of the Polish province. In 1939, on Stalin’s initiative, it was taken away from Poland and returned to Lithuania, at the same time annexing Lithuania to the Soviet Empire. All this has to be kept in mind if we want to understand the question what the University of Vilnius is. And what was it during the period between 1803 and 1832? 79 At first glance the answer seems simple — this is an institution founded by the Jesuits and Stephen Bathory in 1579.

  • London, April 26Th–July 30Th 1816 84
    84 London, April 26th–July 30th 1816 Mid-1816 April 26th-July 30th 1816 Edited from BL Add. Mss. 47232 and 56536 There is much variety and interest in this section of the diary, which covers the time between Byron’s departure for the continent on April 25th 1816 and that of Hobhouse on July 30th (for which he is already preparing on June 5th). The events chronicled should climax in Sheridan’s funeral, on July 13th; but that is an anti-climactic affair. They might have climaxed with a successful romantic assignation on June 24th, but Hobhouse is as luckless and inept here as ever he is. The high-point would be Miss Somerville’s delivery of his prologue to Maturin’s Bertram , at Drury Lane on May 9th, if only that were something of which he felt proud. For the rest, Hobhouse is throughout anxious over the sale of his Letters from Paris , a work, it seems, much-praised but little purchased. The success of Caroline Lamb’s shameless Glenarvon , published on May 9th and into its second edition by late June, does his ego no good. His reading in Mungo Park, and the tales of the war with the Nepalese, and of Napoleon, which his brother Henry brings from his travels, add an incidental exotic interest; and there are vivid glimpses of Coleridge, Sebastiani, Kean, Benjamin Constant, and others. Hobhouse’s exit from the country is effected in a very strange and disturbing manner. Friday April 26th 1816: Did little or nothing in the morning. Met Bainbridge, 1 who told me that Cuthbert 2 had told him that he defended Lord Byron, as having separated only on common causes, when Lord Auckland 3 said, “I beg your pardon – Brougham has told me it is something ‘too horrid to mention’”.

It represents an intensive study, interrupted by World Wars I and II and now since my retirement from the Army, it has been full time. In my first book there were three points of dispair, all of which have now been resolved. (I) The name of the vessel in which Andrew Hannay came to America. (2) Locating the de­ scendants of the first son James and (3) The names of Andrew's forbears. It contained a record of Andrew Hannay and his de­ scendants, and information on the various branches in Scotland as found in the publications of the "Scottish Records Society", "Whose Who", "Burk's" and other authorities such as could be located in various libraries. Also brief records of several families of the name that we could not at that time identify. Since then there have been published two books on the family.

BROADLEY AS ICONOGRAPHER OF NAPOLEON FOREWORD THE towering figure of Napoleon has called forth a very large number of books during the past few years : no week but sees a new volume in one or other of the three or four tongues that count in Western Europe. An apology, perhaps, is due for hereby adding to the output, albeit the iconographical, or even the legendary, side of the Great Man cannot be said to have been overdone. The story of the .truest physical presentment of the world's chief Conqueror, Administrator and Legislator should be of some interest even to the most superficial student of his career. I most gratefully acknowledge the assistance very generously given me throughout by Dr. Arnold Chaplin, f.r.c.p., our leading authority on Napoleon's last illness and death, whose curious and enthusiastic researches into the personalia and minuticB of the Captivity should 4 a X STORY OF NAPOLEON'S DEATH-MASK some day bear such very abundant fruit.

  • The Legendary and the Real Napoleon. an Occult Study
    : THE LEGENDARY AND THE REAL NAPOLEON AN OCCULT STUDY. BY HDNRY RIDGELY EVANS. "The real hero of modern legend, the legend that towers above the whole century, is Napoleon."—Marc Debrit Inter. Quar., Vol. VI., No. i. Sept.— Dec, 1902. "After Marengo, you are the hero of Europe, the man of Providence, J anointed of the Lord; after Auster- ' litz, Napoleon the Great; after Water- loo, the Coisican ogre."'—Victor Hugo: IVilUaiii Shakespeare. IT has been the fate of the great historical personages—warriors, priests, poets, kings and reformers—to have woven about thetn a tissue of myths and fables. Miraculous stories have grown up about the Christ, Moses, Mohammed, Buddha, Zoroaster, Pytha- goras, Alexander the Great, Charlemagne and Napoleon I, entirely obscuring the true characters of these great men. They remind one of the interminable bandages wrapt about the Egyptian mummy. One has to unwind these cerement cloths in order to get a view of the body—to see it in its staring nakedness. It is, then, the duty of the student of history to dissipate these myths and fanciful stories, to treat men as real beings, and not as demi-gods. Let us take Napoleon I as an example. There is a Napoleonic legend that persists in spite of the iconoclastic efforts of modern historians to destroy it. Like Banquo's ghost it will not dozvn. The name of Napoleon is still one to conjure with. We make pilgrimages to his tomb, under the gilded dome of the Invalides, and offer up our devotions to the ashes of the dead hero.

  • The Collectio Autogra- Phorum of the Imperial Public Library
    Tomasz Szwaciński THE COLLECTIO AUTOGRA- PHORUM OF THE IMPERIAL PUBLIC LIBRARY. ITS CONTENTS AND HISTO- RY IN ST. PETERSBURG AND WARSAW In the mid-1840s, the so-called Collection of Autographs and Documents (Col- lectio Autographorum, Коллекция Автографов и Грамот ) was created at the Im- perial Public Library (IPL) in St. Petersburg from a part of the library’s manu- script holdings. It formed an important basis for research for eight decades. The reborn Polish state reclaimed a part of it, large enough to determine that at that point it ceased to exist as a separate collection. The Collectio Autographorum has not been studied yet individually as a his- torically formed collection.1 Thus, providing an overview of its origins as well as a guide to its contents and the history of its components upon liquidation may prove to be a valuable contribution to studies on historical library collections. The basic groundwork of the Collectio Autographorum and the history of its creation at the IPL have been retraced based on materials from the Department of Archival Documents of the National Library of Russia. The fundamental source for any research on the contents of the Collectio Au- tographorum is its old catalogue, held at the Manuscript Department of the Rus- sian National Library. This item has no individual shelf mark and is not available to readers under an ordinary loan procedure. 2 It is a codex in a cardboard binding with leather back and corners, and a dust jacket of well-worn marble paper.

  • The Emperor of Russia and the Royal Humane Society Norah H
    HISTORICAL The Emperor of Russia and the Royal Humane Society Norah H. Schuster, m.a., m.b., ch.B., F.R.c.Path. London the Royal Society of Medicine, London, there is a large equestrian portrait of INAlexander I of Russia which at first sight may not seem to have much relevance there, but, linked up with the present surge of interest in the history of resuscitation, it has a certain romantic charm. The Czar is directing the rescue of a youth of deathly pallor from a little river. In 1806 he was awarded the Gold Medal of the Royal Humane Society for his good deed. James Northcote, r.a. (1746-1831) had read the story in the Annual Report ofthe Society and painted the scene in 1820 when he was 74-years old. He kept the picture at home until he died and bequeathed it to W. Hillman, f.r.c.s., a naval surgeon, who in turn left it to his two sons. As a token of gratitude, they gave it to Dr Charles Hare, f.r.c.p. and after his death in 1898 Mrs Hare gave it to the Royal Medical and Chirurgical Society in memory of her husband who had been its honorary treasurer for many years. When that society was reconstituted as the Royal Society of Medicine in 1907, it became the property of the new one and was transferred with it to No. 1, Wimpole Street in 1912. One of the Governors of the Royal Humane Society, a Mr Grange, who had been in Russia early in 1806 had been told of the incident by Dr James Wylie, personal surgeon to the Czar and an eye witness of the resuscitation.
