# William Chapple (judge)

Sir William Chapple (c. 1676 – 15 March 1745) of Waybay House, Upwey, Dorset and Wonersh, Surrey, was a British lawyer and Whig politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1723 to 1737. He became a High Court Judge in 1737 and presided over the trial of highwayman Dick Turpin.

## Early life

Chapple was the second son of John Chapple of Waybay House, Upwey near Dorchester. He was admitted at Middle Temple in 1694 and called to the bar in 1709.
In 1710, he married Trehane Clifton, daughter of Susannah Clifton of Wonersh who was the niece and heiress of Richard Gwynne of Wonersh Park. He probably rebuilt the house at Wonersh Park.

## Career

At the 1722 British general election, Chapple stood for Dorchester with support of the Duke of Newcastle, and was returned as Whig Member of Parliament on petition on 13 February 1723. According to the 1st Earl of Egmont, when Chapple first entered the House, Arthur Onslow introduced him saying that 'one of the honestest men in England was come to sit among us.' In 1724, he became serjeant-at-law. He was returned unopposed at the 1727 British general election. He was knighted on 14 May 1729, also becoming King's serjeant.
Upon his appointment as Chief Justice of Carnarvon, Merioneth and Anglesey in 1729, he retained his seat in the consequential by-election. In Parliament he voted for the Administration on the civil list arrears in 1729, and on the army in 1732, but was absent for the Excise Bill in 1733. He seconded James Oglethorpe on 24 April 1732 in opposing the bill to void the contracts for the sale of the forfeited Derwentwater estates, and made a bad impression by speaking earnestly for the commissioners and purchasers and against such a bills. He was re-elected for Dorchester in a contest at the 1734 British general election but vacated his seat in 1737 when he was appointed a Hhigh Court Judge.
In March 1739, Chapple presided at the trial and ordered the execution of the highwayman Dick Turpin, then going under the name of John Palmer.

## Death and legacy

Chapple died on 15 March 1745, aged 68, and was buried in a tomb of black and white marble in Wonersh church. He and his wife left four sons, William, Richard, John, and Joseph, and two daughters, Jane and Grace who married Sir Fletcher Norton, afterwards Lord Grantly. His eldest son William was apparently married at Wonersh but the entry is erased to the extent that the name of his bride is obliterated – presumably in disapproval.

# William I. Rose (United States Army officer)

William I. Rose (September 8, 1898 – June 9, 1954) was an American military officer who served as Adjutant General of Massachusetts and was commander of the 26th Infantry Division.

## Early life

Rose was born on September 8, 1898, in Worcester, Massachusetts. He attended Worcester public schools and the College of the Holy Cross. He enlisted in the Massachusetts National Guard on June 16, 1916, and served with the Emmet Guards on the Mexican border.

## World War I

Rose's company was called into active service during World War I. He served in France, where he rose to the rank of sergeant. Rose was then recommended for officers training school and commissioned a lieutenant. He commanded Co. G, 358th Infantry Regiment, 90th Infantry Division, which was made up of soldiers from Texas and Oklahoma. He led troops during the Meuse-Argonne Offensive and saw action in five major engagements. He received an honorable discharge on July 2, 1919.

## Post-war years

On July 9, 1920, Rose returned to the Emmet Guards as a first lieutenant. He was promoted to Captain on April 13, 1921, and Major on February 18, 1932. In December 1934, he was promoted to lieutenant colonel and transferred to the staff of 26th Infantry Division commander Daniel Needham. On December 15, 1934, he was appointed Adjutant General by Governor-elect James Michael Curley. In this role, Rose oversaw deployment of guard forces during floods in the spring of 1936. He also oversaw many Works Progress Administration activities, including the construction of a new Guard facility on Cape Cod. He served as Adjutant General until January 7, 1937, when Curley made him commander of the 26th Infantry Division's 51st Infantry Brigade. His appointment with the 51st was controversial, as he jumped over several officers with higher rank and more years of service. He was promoted to brigadier general shortly thereafter.
Outside of the Guard, Rose was the business manager of the Massachusetts Department of Mental Health and purchasing agent for the City of Boston.

## World War II

On January 16, 1941, the 26th Infantry Division was called into federal service. After the attack on Pearl Harbor, Rose was placed in command of Task Force 6814 and the 26th Infantry Division. Command of the task force passed to Major General Alexander Patch when it arrived in Naval Base Noumea in New Caledonia and Rose was assigned to defend the islands of Effate and Espiritu Santo. Rose also organized defenses and constructed advance air bases on the New Hebrides and Russell Islands.

## Later life

Rose was separated from active duty on February 25, 1946. On September 9, 1946, he returned to the Massachusetts National Guard and was named commander of the 26th Infantry Division. He retired with the rank of Major General on September 8, 1951, due to a state law that required separation after five years as a division commander.
Rose died on June 9, 1954, at Quigley Memorial Hospital in Chelsea, Massachusetts, and was buried in St. John's Cemetery in Worcester.
# William Campbell (MP)

William Campbell (c.1710–1787) was a British Army officer and Scottish politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1734 to 1741.
Campbell was the fourth son of Hon. John Campbell of Mamore and his wife Elizabeth Elphinstone, the daughter of John, 8th Lord Elphinstone. His brothers included Charles Campbell and Gen. John Campbell. He was educated at Glasgow in 1725. He married Susanna Barnard, daughter of John Barnard of Jamaica.
In 1727 Campbell was appointed Gentleman usher to Queen Caroline. In 1731, he was a cornet in the Royal Horse Guards. At the 1734 British general election he was returned as Member of Parliament for Glasgow on the recommendation of his first cousin, John Campbell, 2nd Duke of Argyll. In 1737, he was appointed Equerry to the Duke of Cumberland. In Parliament he followed the Duke of Argyll into opposition, and voted against the Spanish convention in 1739. He was not put up again at the 1741 British general election apparently being completely unsatisfactory. For example, three years later when the Duke of Argyll suggested another candidate for Glasgow a respondent replied that his previous nominee had written only three letters to Glasgow corporation in seven years and he did not even who the magistrates were. In 1741 Campbell became lieutenant and captain in the Coldstream Guards and was on the reserve in 1744.
Later, Campbell bought Liston Hall in Essex, where he built ‘an elegant modern building on the site of the ancient manor house’. He married as his second wife twice widowed Bridget Bacon, daughter of Philip Bacon of Ipswich, on 7 April 1762. Her previous husbands were Edward Evers of Ipswich, and Sir Cordell Firebrace, 3rd Baronet. He died 8 September 1787 leaving two sons by his first wife.
# William Horwood Stuart

William Horwood Stuart (1857 – May 20, 1906) was a British diplomat. He was murdered in Batumi, Georgia, then part of the Russian Empire, while serving as a United States vice-consul there.

## Family

Stuart was born in Harrow, London, in 1857 to William Stuart M.A. (1816–1896), who later served as Vicar of Mundon, Essex (1862–1889), and Rector of Hazeleigh, Essex (1889–1896). His mother was Caroline (1834–1921), youngest daughter of Edward Horwood of The Manor House, Weston Turville, Buckinghamshire. He was also a nephew of the diplomat Major Robert Stuart and the surgeon and artist James Stuart, as well as a great-nephew of the Indophile Charles "Hindoo" Stuart, and a descendant of Lieutenant-General William Spry.

## Early career

In 1873 Stuart was serving as Private Secretary to his uncle Major Robert Stuart, a British consul-general for the Russian ports on the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov in Odessa, Ukraine. In the 1880s he was based in Brăila in Romania, where, in July 1885, his younger brother Charles Leader Justice Stuart drowned in the Danube at the age of 16.

## In Batum

By the early 1890s, Stuart had moved to Batum, where he remained until his death. In 1904 he became an American vice-consul and in 1906 was also serving as an acting British consul. Stuart had been named Japanese consul but his appointment was deferred owing to the outbreak of the Russo-Japanese War.
While serving in Batum, Stuart actively lobbied for the American interests in the region and was connected with an American copper-mining concern in the Caucasus. He was the representative of several British companies, including MacAndrew Forbes. He was one of the largest ship-brokers and exporters of Batum.
At about 11 p.m. on 20 May 1906, Stuart was returning to his home at Makhinjauri, 5 miles north of Batum, after dining with a friend, when he was shot three times from behind a tree. He was taken to a nearby military barracks but died within an hour.
It seems likely that the murder was committed for personal reasons and that the murderers were paid to carry out the act. Stuart had spent most of his life in Eastern Europe and could speak several local languages; he was respected by the local populations but during the revolutionary uprisings of the previous year, his life was threatened and he was obliged to hand over large amounts of cash. In a letter to the United States Secretary of State on 31 May 1906, Ambassador George von Lengerke Meyer wrote that two men, "Kassim Didjavadgé and Ali Porkhall Oghly" had been arrested.

## Reaction to the murder

The matter of the murder was taken up by all levels of the American, British and Russian diplomatic services. Letters and memoranda were exchanged by Elihu Root (United States Secretary of State, George von Lengerke Meyer (US Ambassador to Russia), Whitelaw Reid (US Ambassador to the UK), Cecil Spring Rice (British Chargé d'Affaires at Saint Petersburg, and author of the lyrics to the hymn I Vow to Thee My Country), Patrick Stevens (British Consul at Batum), Alexander Petrovich Izvolsky (Russian Foreign Minister) and Baron Roman Romanovitch Rosen (Russian Ambassador to the US).

By 1851, Baldwin had formed a partnership with Henry Dinning and leased the Cape Cove shipyard for eight years. The partnership lasted for 5 years with Baldwin moving to Saint-Roch and acquiring a bankrupt shipyard. Baldwin had a great deal of success in the business and retired at the time the market for wooden ships was disappearing. He had been a ship builder for about 20 years and built many ships and furthered the commerce of the area.

# William H. and Sabrina Watson House

The William H. and Sabrina Watson House is a single-family home located at 507 Cedar Street in Lapeer, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.

## History

William H. Watson was a florist who sold greenhouse, bedding, and vegetable plants. He and his wife, Sabrina, constructed an earlier house on this property. They then had this house constructed, likely in 1878-79. It was one of the first Queen Anne houses constructed in Lapeer. Later occupants of the house included W.S. Abbot, a postmaster, and John B. Sutton. In 1911, Sutton sold the house to real estate agent Elmer Holman, Sr., who added substantial details to the interior. The house remained in the Holman family until 1984.

## Description

The Watson House is a two-story brick structure, with a dominant square three-story tower on the front facade. The tower is capped by a cross-gabled roof, with large and elaborate paired brackets. Wooden molding encircles the tower, creating a base for the brackets and a hoodmold for the tower windows. The roofline of the house is steep and complex, with intersecting sightlines and corners. Windows come in a variety of window shapes and sizes, and the facade is ornamented with panels, band courses, and piers. The current front porch, constructed in 1920, is a wraparound brick porch with a small projecting portico supported by brick columns.
Inside the house, detailing includes unusual marbleizing and stenciling in the first floor rooms. The front has a terrazzo floor.
# William Higford

William Higford (c. 1580 – 1650) was an English landowner, member of Parliament and author.
He was the son of John Higford of Dixton Manor, Gloucestershire. He was educated at Corpus Christi, Oxford, where his tutor was Sebastian Benefield, and graduated in 1599. He was admitted to the Middle Temple in 1600.
He married Mary, daughter of Sir John Meux of Kingston, Isle of Wight. Through the influence of his wife's family he was chosen to represent Newtown, Isle of Wight in the parliament of 1614, after George Stoughton chose to sit for Guildford. He was a commissioner of sewers for Gloucestershire by 1615. By 1619 he was a Justice of the Peace in Gloucestershire through the good offices of Giles Brydges, 3rd Baron Chandos.
In the following decade Higford was mired in debt. His position was alleviated by the dowry payment received on the marriage of his eldest son John (d. 1635) to Frances, sister of John Scudamore, 1st Viscount Scudamore, but his failure to fulfil the terms of the marriage agreement led to protracted legal disputes.
Towards the end of his life he wrote a manual of advice for his grandson and heir John (d. 1703), which was published after his death as Institutions, or, Advise to his Grandson (1658).
# William Higgins (director)

William Higgins, also known as "Wim Hof" (December 19, 1942 – December 21, 2019) was an American independent director of gay pornographic films who based his businesses in the Czech Republic since 1996. He started his career as a porn director and producer in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, when sellers of pornographic movies, including Falcon refused to mail them to customers in many southeastern states for legal reasons. In addition, he said in an interview, that gay porn movies were "so bad" that he decided to begin making them himself. In 1978, he was busted and his premises raided. Although the charges were later dropped, Higgins decided to go on a "world tour" looking for a better legal environment for his films. After rejecting Australia and Thailand as new venues, he settled in Amsterdam, where his distributor was, and later relocated to Prague, a less expensive city. Although the legal climate in the U.S. has changed, he had no interest in returning.
His first film, A Married Man, was produced in 1974. He went on to produce over 140 internationally distributed titles. His films won several Grabby Awards and he is in the GayVN Awards Hall of Fame. He was also the founder of the film production company Catalina Video.
Higgins died on December 21, 2019, of a heart attack.
