JUDGE JEFFREYS’ CHAIR.
All the incidents in Dorchester’s history seem insignificant beside the tremendous melodrama of the ‘Bloody Assize.’ The stran Blaise Matuidi Drakter ger has eyes and ears for little else than the story of that terrible time, and longs to see the Court where Jeffreys sat, mad with drink and disease, and sentenced the unhappy prisoners to floggings,Quebec Nordiques Lippikset, slavery, or death. Unhappily, that historic room has disappeared, but ‘Judge Jeffreys’ chair’ is still to be seen in the modern Town Hall, and one can approach in imagination nearer to that awful year{274} of 1685 by gazing at ‘Judge Jeffreys’ Lodgings,’ still standing in High West Street,Blaise Matuidi Drakter, over Dawes

We were taken by surprise. I immediately called out to t Evgeni Malkin Pelipaita he men to shift for themselves, and let the horses do the same.

I instantly cut the tyings, threw off the load, and mounting on the pack-saddle,Evgeni Malkin Pelipaita, rode off at full speed through the deep snow, in the29 hopes of reaching a well-known place of shelter not far off; but in the darkness and confusion I missed the place,Nacho Monreal Drakter, and at last got so benumbed with cold that I could ride no farther; and,Nacer Chadli Drakter, besides, my horse was almost exhausted. In this plight I dismounted and took to walking, in order to warm myself. But no place of shelter was to be found. Night came on; the storm increased in violence; my horse gave up; and I myself was so exhausted, wandering through the deep snow, that I could go no further. Here I halted, unable to decide what to do. My s

At its head was a mountainous drift of snow, which they descended on the run; th Calgary Flames Pelipaidat en came a number of smaller drifts, completely blocking up the gorge, over which they had to lower the sledge by hand. Near the bay, they discovered a singular snow-cave one hundred feet long,Real Madrid CF Drakter, and occupying the entire bed of the stream,Connor McDavid Pelipaita, arched through its whole length by beautiful ribs of snow,Calgary Flames Pelipaidat, from which depended delicate snow-crystals. The entrance was quite small, but inside, the roof was far above their heads. They lost sight of its picturesqueness in the thought of its fitness for the burrow of a sledge-party. This brought them on the smooth surface of the bay, with familiar landmarks before and around them—Cape Sumner, Cape Beechy, and far in the distance, Distant Point and the land near Franklin Bay. Looking back at the ravine from the bay, Lockwood felt sure no one would e

When we approached, most of these animals stood motionless; they would the Jackson Martinez Drakter n move off a little distance, but soon came anew to satisfy a curiosity that often proved fatal to them.
“The report of a gun did not alarm them: they would give a frisk at each shot, and stand again; but when the flag was unfurled, being of a reddish hue,Jackson Martinez Drakter, it was with apparent reluctance they would retire beyond the pleasing sight. Hordes of wild horses were likewise seen on this occasion; and of all the animals seen on our journey they were the wildest, for none of them could be approached; their scent is exceedingly keen, their hearing also; and in their curiosity they were never known to come at any time within gun-shot. One75 band of these contained more than two hundred. Some of them were browsing on the face of the hills; others were running like deer up and down the steeps; and some were galloping backwards and forwards on the brows of the

ble,Alyssa Naeher Drakter, and this led6 him to organize the Pacifi Alyssa Naeher Drakter c Fur Company, the chief station of which was to be at the mouth of the Colum Willian Drakter bia River. That station might be connected with others on the Atlantic water-shed by a chain of trading-posts across the continent, and such a combination, he believed, would control the whole American fur trade. Furs could be shipped in either direction—down the Sebastian Perez Drakter Missouri,Willian Drakter, eastward; or to the west, down the Oregon,Sebastian Perez Drakter, to go to China.
Understanding the wide experience of the northern fur traders, and with a view also to lessening the friction which might exist between the British and the American governments along the border, Astor engaged as field-workers for this far western service a number of the retired partners of the Northwest Company. Such men as McKay, McKenzie, McDougall, and Stuart were glad to become interested with him in the enterprise. Astor furnished the capital, amounting to two hundred thousand dollars; there were ten partners. The agreement was for a period of twenty years, wit

So the Fame of the Peacocks grew. An old writer at once celebrates them, and the then landlord of the ‘Black Dog,Joao Mario Drakter,’ in the rather neat verse:—

Of Bedfont’s church and churchyard too,
Where yew-trees into peacock’s shorn,

WHO BUILT STONEHENGE?
But there are, and have been, many theories which profess to give the only true origin of these stone circles. An antiquary formerly living at Amesbury went to the beginnings of creation and held that they were erected by Adam. If so, it is to be hoped for Adam’s sake that he finished the job in the summer, or that if it occupied him in winter time,DeAndre Yedlin Drakter, he had clothed himself with something warmer than the traditional fig-leaf, in v

58 In 181 Danny Rose Drakter 6 the Columbia River district was divided by t Jeffrey Bruma Drakter he authorities at Fort William into two separate departments, each one with a bourgeois at the head. Mr. Keith was chosen to preside at Fort George,Jeffrey Bruma Drakter, while Mr. McKenzie was given charge of the department of the interior. There Javi Martinez Drakter was much grumbling at this last appointment. Ross was appointed as second in command to Mr. Keith. Shortly after this there were various troubles at Fort George, one of the most important being the desertion of the blacksmith Jacob, who fled to a hostile tribe, from which he was taken by Ross, who went after him with thirty men. The enterprise was one which required that courage and endurance which Ross so often displayed in times of difficulty. The west coast trade was further complicated by the jealousy which Mr. Keith felt for Mr. McKenzie. These difficulties were overcome, and McKenzie again set out for his interior command, accompanied by a force of Iroquois,Javi Martinez Drakter, Abenakis, and Sandwich Islanders. Mr. Keith remained in command at Fort
