We have both, by this time, become aware of a melancholy truth. We have both seen, that, however a common lot may be awarded to the young members of a family in early life; to whatever degree a common education may strengthen the natural affection implanted in their bosoms—blend together their youthful associations, and form their tastes on the same models;—in fine, however potent the spell which pervades their spirits, and seems to unite their hearts indissolubly together—the approach of manhood rarely fails to scatter the little band to the four winds; and the time comes when long periods of separation and absence, though they may not choke a generous interest, or stifle affection, must impair, if not destroy intimacy. Epistolary correspondence may, it is true, offer under most circumstances a partial remedy, and to that we have hitherto had recourse to fill the chasms produced in our intimacy, from having for many years pursued diverging paths. May we never quite neglect it! VOL. I. B 2 You may recollect, that when boys at school, I seemed, as you were my junior, to have a certain natural right to stretch the sceptre of patronage over you. When fatigued of looking up to my two elder brothers as models of scarcely attainable perfection and wisdom, it was encouraging to turn and cast a glance of complacency on you, with the reflection, that in your eyes at least, I must appear a personage of equally superior intelligence. At this later day the doubt may well occur to me, whether the two or three years by which I was your senior, had in fact given me a very decided advantage over you in moral and physical alertness or power. This however I keep in remembrance, that you certainly looked up to me with a far greater degree of respect than I merited, and with a degree of affection, which, whatever may have been the fate of the former sentiment, has in no degree been diminished by added years, different pursuits, and long terms of separation. But it may be admitted, that even at the present day, when both are well advanced in manhood, there still exists a certain weakness in my manner of looking upon you. When The rambler in North America, MDCCCXXXII.–MDCCCXXXIII. By Charles Joseph Latrobe., Volume 1 http://www.loc.gov/resource/ lhbtn.6855a Library of Congress addressing you as at the present time, I persuade myself that in your breast at least, there are sentiments which will prove far stronger than the spirit of criticism. Moreover, I am still, without fear of contradiction, a few years older, and if I dare presume to instruct and amuse any one, it may be yourself. In this spirit I take up my pen to reply to your last letter. 3 You say you continue to be interested in every step I take, and feel curiosity to follow me through the scenes which have been presented to my view on the opposite shores of the Atlantic. I will try to answer your interest, and satisfy your curiosity, and as far as circumstances allow, to give you a history of what my comrade and myself have seen, achieved, or suffered for some time past.

Physicians for a Smoke-Free Canada: Tobacco Project I INTRODUCTION Michael Jantzi Research Associates Inc. (MJRA) tracks the social and environmental performance of Canadian companies. MJRA was retained to provide a list of Canadian firms that are involved in the manufacture of tobacco or tobacco-related products. Kinder, Lydenberg, Domini & Co., Inc. (KLD) provides social research on US corporations. KLD provided information regarding non-Canadian companies that manufacture tobacco or tobacco-related products. This report begins by exploring MJRA’s research methodology. It then describes the tobacco screen, which MJRA developed in order to define whether or not a company is involved with the manufacture of tobacco or tobacco-related products. Next, the report focuses on a table highlighting all tobacco companies and their countries of origin, before providing some additional information about the Canadian companies and non-Canadian firms identified by MJRA and KLD as having involvement in this area. II RESEARCH METHODOLOGY In reviewing and analysing the social performance of Canadian companies, MJRA utilises a comprehensive array of sources, including corporate documents and filings; major press (both national and international); periodicals, journals, and trade publications; government publications and databases; investment services databases, and our own files. MJRA analysts also conduct interviews with a wide variety of stakeholders, including community, company, industry, government, and union contacts.

  • THE HUDSON RIVER VALLEY REVIEW a Journal of Regional Studies
    SPRING 2018 THE HUDSON RIVER VALLEY REVIEW A Journal of Regional Studies The Hudson River Valley Institute at Marist College is supported by a major grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities. This issue of The Hudson River Valley Review has been generously underwritten by the following: Peter Bienstock THE POUGHKEEpsIE GRAND HOTEL SHAWANGUNK VALLEY AND CONFERENCE CENTER …centrally located in the Historic Hudson Valley CONSERVANCY midway between NYC and Albany… Conservation • Preservation • Education www.pokgrand.com From the Editors Welcome to our bigger, and more expansive, issue of The Hudson River Valley Review. As well as the enlarged format, we’ve widened the publication’s scope to accommodate more than 300 years of history. And while the topics covered in this issue might be broadly familiar, each essay offers details that reveal refreshing new insight. While the origins and evolution of Pinkster may be debatable, its celebration in seventeenth-century New Netherland offered an opportunity for residents—including enslaved African Americans—to relax, enjoy and express themselves. In the years leading up to the American Revolution, a French emigrant farmer drafted chapters of a book describing his new home in Orange County. These now-classic recollections would not be published until after he had been accused of disloyalty and chased out of the country. His eventual return—and the story of his trials and travels—is the stuff of cinema. In the early nineteenth century, another globetrotting writer, Washington Irving, helped to mold the young nation with his fiction and biographies. But the story of Irving’s own life is best conveyed at Sunnyside, his Westchester home, now preserved as a museum.
