To the future belongs the fulfillment of the dreams of the many who have worked long and faithfully for the betterment of our prairie home. * * We dedicate this day, this souvenir program, our aims and hopes TO THE PIONEER HOMESTEADERS, their wives and children, who valiantly withstood privations, floods, droughts -- hazards innumerable, to get and keep this country settled. TO THE DWELLERS WHO CAME AFTERWARD, stayed and paid the taxes that, after all, make possible every project like beautiful Bonny Dam. TO THE STATESMEN, who include engineers, wise men of government, business, and farm and profession -- far-sighted and imaginative whose efforts were fruitful, perhaps even beyond their aspirations. TO THE UNFORTUNATE ONES of the flood years, who lost their lives not in vain -- to point up the drastic necessity for life saving Bonny Dam and similar conservation undertakings. TO THE ARMED FORCES, who kept America the land where fishing and boating go hand-in-hand with freedom and voting. TO THE EVER-PRESENT ONE, Whose help we seek in preserving this grassy land of beauty and opportunity to keep it safe for generations yet to come. Of Him we ask a blessing on these unborn who will need dauntless courage no less than the brave souls of yesteryear, whose problems, though different, may have been easier to resolve than those yet to come. * * So as we dedicate and celebrate, the prayer is offered that the coming generations who bask on the banks of Bonny Dam, reap the wealth of its waters and feel the comfort of its protection may live better, richer, happier, lives, fulfilling the dreams and accomplishments of all of us here today1. Bonny Gould Bonny Gould's "Dedication" fits the Barnhart and Bonny families, who were among these pioneers, very well indeed. 1 Bonny Dam Dedication... p.l Page v The Country Post Office The post office stood in the back of the store, Behind the old stove and the crude cuspidor. The old stove was burnt to a dull dingy brown And the cuspidor welcomed the men of the town. When the mail arrived, the whole town was there- The matron, the merchant, the maiden so fair. Back in the office, distinctly we'd hear Them sorting the mail, full of trouble and cheer. And when the window went up with a wham, We crowded around in a sociable jam. All eager to hear from the folks that we knew, Or hoping perhaps for a check, overdue. A place for a smile, but no place for a frown. The post office stood in the dear old hometown. Author Unknown1 1 From Alice Jacober. 1/31/95 Page vi INTRODUCTION The principal characters in this little history are Isaac Bonny [1865], his wife Laura Van Dyke, Charlie Barnhart, and his wife Jennie Teel. Velma Bonny Jacobs is the reason this publication was undertaken. Her Bonny relatives are usually described by their relationship to her. She has guided the presentation of the Bonnys. The Barnharts are described through their relationship to Charlie and Jennie. Alice Barnhart Jacober has guided their organization here. This little volume attempts to present facts still available about the Bonny families, the Barnhart families, the store/post office both families operated, the little community of Bonny, Colorado and its namesake, Bonny Dam. The stories presented here may be understood a little more clearly if one remembers that the Bonny family stories are seen through the eyes of Velma Bonny Jacobs, but are written up by Andy. Without her no work would have been done; Alice has brought us the Barnharts; and Andy Gibbons, wanted to present the community of Bonny, Colorado, to Velma's, and to Charlie's descendants. In the years between 1910 and 1915 Isaac William Bonny [1865] and his wife Laura moved their family west from Ash Rock, Kansas, to Colorado. According to the census records of 1910 for Bonny, Colorado, their son Isaac [1886] and his wife Floa Elizabeth were already living there. Lela Bonny assures us her mother-in-law's name was actually Floa1. Floy was a nick name, however the 1910 census has Floy. One genealogical source had Flora, an error. Later, in 1918, Charlie F. Barnhart and Sarah Jane (Jennie) Teel Barnhart moved to Colorado. Charlie replaced Ike as postmaster at Bonny, Colorado. Since Isaac is a common name in these families, birth years will be added if needed when Isaac is mentioned.

    ESPERANTO VERSION 1.0 - 04-FEB-2019 Translator's note: - The given names were chosen to be translated, so they give an Esperanto colour to the story, they sound more familiar to the Esperanto readers (from different language backgrounds) and they could fit better to the grammar. The same is traditionally used for classical names, always represented in their Esperanto forms (e.g. Lukrecio, Demosteno). The family names were kept as in the original. "Bait" by Iago Faustus, Ph.D. part of the series Fabulae Atroces Fausti [email protected] [email protected] +1-718-440-1873 1 Special translator©s edition of the script. 2 Overall production note: This script represents a comic-book representation of a sort of obscene nature documentary, and so a number of elements will appear as panels representing camera shots in that documentary. The documentary has a "narrator" who will appear from time-to-time in a CAPTION element (CAPTION – PSEUDO-NARRATION). At other times there will be "interviews" with people knowledgeable about the events this "documentary" is about. In the course of these interviews, an unseen interviewer will occasionally interpose questions of the interview subjects. These will be handled through speech balloons attributed to an "Unseen interviewer." When the interviewees speak a foreign language, that language will appear in their speech balloons and "subtitles" will appear below to "translate" what they are saying. Also, "Subtitles" will also appear from time to time to indicate the "source" of various "footage" that the documentary makers made us of in putting the documentary together. Notes for the translator: Much of the material in the comic that follows consists of instructions to the artist who illustrated it.

  • The Physicality of Rubens‟ Human Bodies: Visuality And
    THE PHYSICALITY OF RUBENS‟ HUMAN BODIES: VISUALITY AND MEDICINE IN EARLY MODERN EUROPE AIKATERINI GEORGOULIA TWO VOLUMES VOLUME I PH.D. UNIVERSITY OF YORK HISTORY OF ART SEPTEMBER 2014 ABSTRACT This thesis presents new textual and visual source material for our understanding of Rubens‟ painted human bodies. It identifies hitherto unexamined socio-cultural contexts, as well as contests and revises scholarly assumptions. I maintain that Rubens‟ bodies were informed by early modern scientific practices and medical discourses. The central argument is that Rubens‟ understanding of human physicality and the contemporary engagement with basic biological processes converge in his painted bodies. The medical view of the body as a psychosomatic unity – a nexus of material and immaterial properties – opens a new investigative avenue to studies of cultural materialism. The exploration of the enmeshment of materiality and immateriality gives an insight into how and in what ways matter and image acquire meaning. I argue that the immaterial characteristics of the human body are visually integrated in canvas and paper, pigments, oils and chalk. By exploring visual and textual sources, this study proposes a larger methodological framework. It brings together visuality, materiality and textuality, providing a cross-referential reading of text and image, and using both of them as core primary material with an argumentative voice. The analysis of the visual case studies (portraiture, history and religious painting) does not draw on a larger pre-determined and extraneous context, but context is produced by the image. Therefore, I perceive context as multifarious and wide-ranging. My approach responds to the previous lack of a broader study of Rubens‟ bodies via a medical perspective.

To her I owe all that I am and all that I aspire to be. It was she who bore the burden of a large family, suffered when we were hurt, comforted us in our disappointments, deprived herself so we might have more, and saw her hopes and dreams come true when her children fulfilled her fondest hopes.

Hell, it's too far away from anywhere to ever amount to anything!” Little did this man of money expect that the giant white pine of that virgin land would go into the building of most of the homes of his native Chicago and other thriving young cities of the middle west.
