On that day, the Fort Kent blockhouse, destined to become one of the most enduring symbols of the war, was still six months away from construction at the conflu­ ence of the Fish and St. John rivers. Fort Kent did not rise out of bombast and calls to arms. It instead assumed its very strategic location gradually as Maine pushed to establish a toe-hold in the territory claimed by both Great Britain and the United States under the nebulous terms of the Treaty of Paris signed in 1783.

  • John Baker and the Republic of Madawaska
    Roger Paradis JOHN BAKER AND THE REPUBLIC OF MADAWASKA • i • ? An Episode In The Northeast Boundary Controversy ' The United States has been involved in numerous boundary disputes, but few of these growing pains, if any, have engendered such a welter of scholarly research as the Maine-New Brunswick controversy. Ironically, the master of intrigue most responsible for perpetrating the dispute has received little serious historical consideration. Too frequently, the embroglio has been superficially regarded as little more than a comic opera when, in fact, it threatened to precipi­ tate a crisis of the first magnitude—an Anglo-American confrontation which, if permitted to degenerate indefinitely, could have enflamed the Northern frontier from Halifax to Detroit.1 For half a century the dispute smoldered quietly while the United States temporized and engaged in protracted and fruitless negotiations with Great Britain. In 1817, however, a new and violent dimension was added to the boundary controversy as American settlers were lured to the pine wilderness of the upper St. John River by the prospect of timber profits and free lands. Among the Yankee settlers who yielded to the charms of the disputed Mada- waska Territory was John Baker, a flamboyant agitator destined to be thrust from a prosaic but remunerative lumbering business to the fore of international politics. He was born in Moscow, Maine, in 1787, then a frontier wilderness.2 His youth was spent largely in lumbering and the fur trade, and in 1816, he and his brother Nathan were charged with trading illicitly with the Indians. The Baker brothers made separate getaways; Nathan, who would also be in­ volved in the boundary controversy, migrated directly to the disputed territory with his family.

UNDER HIS OWN FLAG: JOHN BAKER’S GRAVESTONE MEMORIAL IN RETROSPECT by George L. Findlen John Baker is an enigmatic figure, half hero and half scoundrel His actions in raising the American flag on the north shore of the St. John River in July 1827, in defiance of British authorities, contributed to the tensions that resulted in the “Bloodless” Aroostook War in 1839, and this in turn provided the impetus for settling the U.S.-Canadian boundary along the St. John River according to the Webster-Ashbur- ton Treaty oj 1842. Jn 1868 the State of Maine erected a monument of sorts to the memory of John Baker in a cemetery near Fort Fair- field. Pondering why the monument was raised, and who the man behind the monument really was, sets the stage for a better under­ standing of collective memory in a northern Maine context.

    UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science Department of Electronics and Computer Science A mini-thesis submitted for transfer from MPhil to PhD Supervisor: Prof. Wendy Hall and Dr Les Carr Examiner: Dr Nick Gibbins Application of Link Integrity techniques from Hypermedia to the Semantic Web by Rob Vesse February 10, 2011 UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON ABSTRACT FACULTY OF ENGINEERING AND APPLIED SCIENCE DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRONICS AND COMPUTER SCIENCE A mini-thesis submitted for transfer from MPhil to PhD by Rob Vesse As the Web of Linked Data expands it will become increasingly important to preserve data and links such that the data remains available and usable. In this work I present a method for locating linked data to preserve which functions even when the URI the user wishes to preserve does not resolve (i.e. is broken/not RDF) and an application for monitoring and preserving the data. This work is based upon the principle of adapting ideas from hypermedia link integrity in order to apply them to the Semantic Web.

  • The Acadians the Acadians, Their Culture and Their Influence on Mount Desert
    24 The Acadians The Acadians, Their Culture and Their Influence on Mount Desert Edited by Anne Mazlish* Origins of Acadia There are two theories regarding the origin of the name "Acadie" or "Acadia." One attributes it to the explorer Verrazano, who in 1524 named the coastline of the present-day Middle Atlantic states "Arcadie," in remembrance of a land of beauty and innocence celebrated in classical Greek poetry. The name "Arcadie" (with an "r") appears on various sixteenth-century maps of the east coast of North America and has been accepted by many historians as being the origin of the name "Acadie." The romantic associations of the term "Arcadie" likely explain why this theory has been widely published and is even found in recent scholarly works.1 The more plausible theory is that "Acadie" derives from a Micmac word rendered in French as "cadie," meaning a piece of land, generally with a favorable connotation.2 The word "-cadie" is found in many present-day place names such as Tracadie and Shubenacadie in the Canadian Mari times and Passamaquoddy, an English corruption of Passamacadie. Virtually all French references to Acadia from the time of the first significant contacts with the Micmacs use the form without the "r," "Acadie." The cartographic use of "Arcadie" for various parts of the east of eastern North America may have prepared the way for the acceptance of "cadie" from its Micmac source.3 Maine Acadian identity has evolved over several hundred years in response to changing political, economic, and social circumstances. While some aspects of their heritage are shared with other Acadian groups in North America, Maine Acadians maintain a distinctive ethnic culture of their own.
