Moreover, he asked that a biography be compiled on aunt Fannie Sessions Baird. Uncle Abner followed up with letters in 1983. About 1960, I had read some information written by Aunt Maggie but the current ease of making copies did not exist at that time so I did not obtain a copy. Many requests were made over several years before the information written by Aunt Maggie was received. When I finally obtained Aunt Maggie’s writings, in the late 1980's, a copy of the hand written information was accepted with the express stipulation that it could not be recopied and distributed to family members. I finally made a decision in 2004. If I “translated” her writings to my computer then a copy was not technically made and the stipulation was not violated. The biography would not be complete without reference to the aforesaid information. During 2004, a draft of the autobiography by Uncle Edwin and the writing about her mother by aunt Ruby became available. These two sources contained significant additional history. It is unfortunate that this history was not compiled during uncle Abner’s lifetime so that he could read this history and offer additional information and corrections. In addition to the request of uncle Abner, the history was compiled so that it will be recorded for future generations on the microfilm at the LDS Church Genealogical Library, which has branches throughout the world. The children of James H. Baird always considered themselves as children of James and Fannie or James and Ellen. Moreover, they also always considered themselves as members of the one “James H. Baird, family”. I knew many uncles and aunts. With the exceptions of Samuel, and Chloe, who died in California in 1928, I visited in all of their homes, usually more than once, including Chauncey in San Bernardino, CA. My parents took their three eldest sons to the joint funeral of Minnie and Daniel Walker in Syracuse, 5 January 1935. I also visited in the home of Minnie Walker long after she died, when the home was occupied by her daughter- in-law. Never did I hear the term half-brother and half-sister. They always spoke of their brother or sister. Because my uncles and aunts never used the term half-brother or half-sister, when differentiation was desirable, I have always spoken of an aunt or uncle as a son or daughter of aunt Fannie; or a son or daughter of my grandmother. Some of my cousins have used the term half-brother or half-sister, but I do not remember using those terms. 4 Chapter Two THE LIFE OF JAMES HYRUM BAIRD 1848 -1910 As COMPILED & PUBLISHED BY EDWIN BAIRD, A SON 1968 James Hyrum Baird James Hyrum Baird was one of those fearless, hardy, pioneers who was willing to face all kinds of physical hardships and privations to redeem the western desert and build a culture, the like of which the world had never seen. He had implicit faith in the gospel of Jesus Christ and its leadership. He knew that Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, and their successors were prophets of God; and he tried to live according to every word which they taught, to the best of his ability. Thus James hoped that his life would be above reproach, so that his family, friends, neighbors, and acquaintances would find nothing but good in his words, acts, and relations with everyone. James' parents, Samuel Baird and Matilda Rutledge, joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Marion, Perry County, Alabama. About 1840, they moved to Nauvoo, Illinois. Shortly after they arrived there, the Prophet Joseph Smith and his brother Hyrum were martyred and the exodus of the Church to the West began. Unable to outfit themselves for the westward movement, the Baird family purchased a houseboat and moved down the Mississippi River to Quincy, Illinois. They made their home on the boat for several years. While living at Quincy, Samuel Baird was employed as captain on a freight boat between St. Louis and New Orleans. James, the tenth and youngest child, was born on the fifth of February 1848, while the boat was moored in a quiet inlet of the river. About 1850, Matilda moved with the children to St. Joseph, Missouri, where they lived near the river for a number of years. Several other families went with her, and since there was an organized branch of the Church there, they could associate with others of their faith. Samuel Baird wrote to his family periodically and counseled the older boys to take good care of their mother. James was very small when his father worked on the river and saw very little of him. Soon after a trip down the river, the family received a letter from a nurse in New Orleans stating that Samuel Baird had contracted yellow fever during an epidemic there. His son Joseph took the next steamer down the river, but was unable to find any trace of his father. 5 During the epidemic the dead were buried in a long trench and no records were kept. One day in late summer, James, his older brother, and some other boys, got a row boat and went across the river to gather fruit, nuts and berries that grew wild on the banks and provided much of their food. When the boat was loaded, there was insufficient room for all the boys. Because two of the older boys could not swim there was discussion about how to get home and while they were arguing, James quietly undressed, threw his clothes in the boat, and dived into the river. He was the first to reach the opposite shore. Previously, his mother had worried about him going swimming in the river, but she changed her opinion when told what he had done. Since it was James responsibility to herd the cattle along the river banks, he had many opportunities to be in the water and became a very fine swimmer. Another day, James and some friends found a skunk in a hollow log. They poked it with sticks until it had ejected all of its musk. James then took it home and caused quite a commotion. Even after the skunk was released, James was not very welcome in the house for a day or two. When the Civil War started, two of James' brothers, Andrew and Joseph, enlisted in the army on the Union side. His older sisters married and one of them died while the family lived at St. Joseph. They next moved to Atchison, Kansas. In the spring of 1863, his mother, with her sons Brigham and James, and several other families, outfitted a small company with ox teams to go to Utah. They crossed the plains on the regular Overland Trail, arriving in Salt Lake City that fall. Soon after reaching Salt Lake City, they moved to the northwest part of the settlement near the mouth of the Jordan River where they spent the first winter caring for some cattle. Food was not plentiful that first winter. Cooking fat was so limited that in order to fry a fish James caught in City Creek it was necessary to drop water into the frying pan until the fish was cooked to keep it from burning.

  • The Recording Sessions
    Bob Dylan: The Recording Sessions by Michael Krogsgaard, compiled from files available at http://www.punkhart.com/dylan/sessions.html 1 2 Some general information regarding the different sources made available for the study: 1. The Columbia Studios Recording Diaries are books, which for each day of the year (since 1941) list every planned session in the different studios. Information includes: time of the day, name of the studio, name of the producer and the engineers and the name of the artist. For the New York studios one diary is missing, that which covers the period January 1967 to December 1970. For the Nashville studios, the diary for the period 1969 to 1971 is missing. 2. Recording Sheets are lists made during each session and put into each tape box. The sheet records the date, the studio, the artist, which tracks were recorded and the CO number (Columbia's own reference number) for each composition (of which, more later). Each recorded take is marked as complete (C), with a short false start(b) or a long false start (B). It is indicated on these sheet which takes are removed to other tapes for further use. 3. The Tape Boxes themselves also usually contain information about each take and which takes are removed for further use. 4. CO Cards contain information about the CO (CO=Columbia) number and title for each composition and usually also the recording date. The CO numbers are basically a secure identification of each composition but they are not always chronological (for instance: the CO numbers for songs recorded in Nashville are generally higher than CO numbers for songs recorded at the same time in New York), and, confusingly, sometimes one composition has several CO numbers, especially (but not always) if it has been recorded several times at different sessions.

  • Official Channels Are Things Like Grievance Brian Martin Procedures, Ombudsmen and Courts
    Brian Martin Official Channels Official channels are things like grievance Brian Martin procedures, ombudsmen and courts. They are supposed to resolve problems and provide justice. However, trust in official channels Official Channels can be misplaced: in many cases they may give only an illusion of a solution. In Official Channels, Brian Martin tells what he has learned about formal procedures set up to deal with problems associated with whistleblowing, sexual harassment, plagiarism, Wikipedia and other issues. He says it is unwise to put too much reliance on official channels and that more emphasis should be put on developing skills, changing cultures and exploring alternatives. Brian Martin is emeritus professor of social sciences at the University of Wollongong, Australia. He is the author of 20 books and hundreds of articles on dissent, nonviolent action, scientific controversies and other topics.

The Importation of Arms and the 1912 Mormon "Exodus" from Mexico B. CARMON HARDY and MELODY SEYMOUR In the hot, dry days of late July and early August 1912, thousands of North Americans raced north across the border into the United States at El Paso, Texas and Hachita, New Mexico. Due to revolutionary vio­ lence in Mexico, refugees had filtered north for months. This latest, unexpected wave was by far the largest. It consisted mostly of polyga­ mous families from Mormon colonies in Chihuahua and Sonora. Crowded into makeshift facilities at the EI. Paso lumber yard and a quickly constructed tent city at Hachita, their presence soon became the object of curious journalists. Many outside the area became aware for the first time that Mormons, or Latter~day Saints, lived south ofthe United States-Mexican border and had resided there for a generation.' The earliest arrivals consisted chiefly of women and children shepherded by male guardians.

  • Musical Form in Hymns
    MUSICAL FORM IN HYMNS OF THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS By Nathan Robert Bigler A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of MusiC Northern Arizona University May 2018 Approved: Stephen C. Brown, Ph.D., Chair Timothy Alan Smith, Ph.D. Jennifer J. Russell, Ph.D. ABSTRACT MUSICAL FORM IN HYMNS OF THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS NATHAN ROBERT BIGLER Hymn singing is an integral part of both Congregational and private worship for millions aCross the globe. While hymns have been the subjeCt of research regarding history, origins, and cultural influence, there has been very little researCh regarding musiCal forms and harmoniC struCtures found in nineteenth- and twentieth-Century Protestant hymns. In disCussing form, many theory texts desCribe the bulk of modern hymn musiC as “strophic.” Using William Caplin’s text Classical Form (1998) as a model of analytiCal teChniques and prinCiples, this thesis examines the Mormon collection Hymns of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (1985) and reveals that “strophic” is too narrow a label for an entire hymnal. Four formal models and one harmoniC struCture emerge. EaCh is identified by speCifiC musiCal CharaCteristiCs (illustrated using hymn examples), and together these five struCtures enCompass a majority of the 341 hymns in the hymnal. Chapter 1 gives a brief historical review of Protestant hymn development and of the LDS hymnal. Chapter 2 disCusses the analytiCal methods used in this study. Chapter 3 introduces the two smaller multi-phrase models: the “small-sCale model” that manifests as any of several variations of an aaba phrase structure; and the “two-phrase model” that manifests as an extremely CompaCt binary structure.
