# John William Hayward

John William Hayward (1844–1913) was a Newfoundland artist and inventor. He was born July 18, 1844, in Harbour Grace to John Hayward and Flora Currie. His mother died in August, 1844. He also worked as a bank clerk in St. Johns, Newfoundland.
He did some important work about flags used to identify ships and signals:
   Flag charts of the 1800s are much more numerous than those of the centuries before. However, and almost without exception, they were the province of one man, John William Hayward (1843-1913), a self-taught artist and son of a wealthy merchant family of the city. Along with landscape paintings and engraved vignettes of contemporary St. John’s life, Hayward produced many signal flag charts, many in watercolour, and some as mass-produced lithographed broadsheets complete with advertisements of prominent city businesses. Hayward’s charts showed many new businesses and families joining the ranks of prominence by acquiring their own house flags, and prominent they were. Families such as the Ayres, Bowrings, Bairds, and Harveys of St. John’s were perhaps more important to the commercial and social life of the city then than were the Eatons, Simpsons, or Gooderhams to Toronto, or the Rockefellers and Vanderbilts to New York. While "Hayward’s Flags" (as this aspect of his work is often called), may lose some accuracy to the researcher by their decorative Victorian exuberance, it is that same exuberance and his decorative depiction of the signal and commercial flags of St. John’s that gives important clues to the prominent place these flags played in the city’s life. Hayward’s charts bustle with the life of a busy day along the docks in the harbour.
He did also drawings and engravings. He was a self-taught artist.

# Russian cruiser Admiral Kornilov

Admiral Kornilov was a protected cruiser of the Russian Imperial Navy. She was presumably named for Admiral Vladimir Alexeyevich Kornilov.
The ship was laid down in 1886 and launched in 1887 at St. Nazaire in France. She was commissioned in 1888. Admiral Kornilov was 113 metres (371 ft) long and 14.8 metres (49 ft) wide, had a draught of 7.8 metres (26 ft) and featured a large ram bow. She displaced 5,863 tonnes (5,770 long tons). The armament consisted of ten 6-inch (152 mm)/40?(35) guns, six 3-pounders (47 mm) and ten 1-pounders (37 mm) plus six 15-inch (381 mm) torpedo tubes. During a refit in 1904/05 the main armament was changed to ten 6-inch (152 mm) guns. The deck armor was between 1 and 2.5 inches (25 and 64 mm), the armor at the command tower was 3 inches (76 mm). Two horizontal triple-expansion steam engines with eight boilers gave her 5,977 ihp and a top speed of 17.6 knots (32.6 km/h). She had two shafts and a bunker capacity of 1,000 tons of coal. The crew numbered 479 men.
Admiral Kornilov was unique to the Russian Navy but resembled the large protected cruisers Tage and Amiral Cécille built at the same time for the French Navy. These were unusually long cruisers at the time, although surpassed in 1892 by the British Blake class.
The ship was used as a torpedo training ship from 1908 and was stricken from the active list in 1911.

# Santa Maria dello Stellario

Santa Maria dello Stellario (or Church of Stellario) was a catholic Church located in piazza Ciullo, in the town centre of Alcamo, in the province of Trapani.

## History

It was founded in the 17th century by Mariano da Alcamo, a Capuchin friar, and consecrated in 1625. As the historian Ignazio De Blasi affirms in his work, they carried the Holy Sacrament and the painting of Maria Santissima dello Stellario in procession to this Church, to ask her intercession for rain to come. It had not rained for several months: it rained continuously for three consecutive days. The founder also created the homonimous confraternity in the same period. In 1964, before being demolished, the Church was not in bad conditions: in fact, in 1939 Maria De Blasi Casale, a widow, had financed the restoration of its roof.

### Description

The façade had a fine portal; the Church had a single nave, there were Ionic capitals and two altars on both sides. On the high altar, there was a painting of the titular saint, later missing, realized by Giuseppe La Ficara in 1651. The picture, with a low artistic value, represented Mary on a throne of clouds, in the middle of 12 stars and the Infant Jesus in her arms; there were a cardinal and a capuchin friar on the sides, while the Eternal Father and the Holy Ghost were portrayed in the upper part.
In 1769 the Church was embellished with stuccoes; inside it, there were also some ancient crypts which were destroyed during the demolition, made after the building had been sold by the Curia of Trapani. With the income they bought a piece of land in Viale Europa, in order to provide that area with a parish Church, later called chiesa del Sacro Cuore.

### The confraternity of Santa Maria dello Stellario

It was founded on 21 June 1602 in the Mother church and had its oratory inside this Church. From the information that the historian Ignazio De Blasi handed down, we know that its brethren were butchers and farmers. They wore a sack and a visor made with linen cloth, a fabric mantle with the image of Maria Santissima dello Stellario, and a big cordon; they went barefoot, with sandals like capuchin friars, the order which their founder, Father Mariano Bonofino, belonged to. The confraternity dissolved in the forties.

#### Duties of the brethren

Here it is the list of their obligations:
* Being always very diligent, in any occasion
* Taking part in the sung Mass and receive Communion on 8 September, festivity of their titular Saint.
* Taking part in the procession of Corpus Domini and on its Octave
* Accompanying dead brethren to their sepulchre and complying with the Easter Precept on Maundy Thursday, in the Church of the Capuchin friars.

# Russian cruiser Afrika

Afrika (Russian - Африка) was a sail- and steam-powered second-class cruiser of the Imperial Russian Navy. She was 2775 tonnes, 83 m long, 11.06 m in the beam and had four boilers powering a single vertical triple expansion steam engine. Her maximum speed was 12.75 knots, whilst her crew was 148 sailors and 12 officers. Those who served aboard her included Alexey Abaza and Hans William von Fersen.
Built by John Roach and Sons at the Delaware River Iron Ship Building and Engine Works shipyard in Chester, Pennsylvania, she was launched in May 1877 under the name Saratoga. She was acquired by Russia exactly a year later for $335,000 and sailed for Europe on 29 December 1878 under her first captain Yevgeni Ivanovich Alekseyev. She anchored at Kronstadt in summer 1879 to have her armament installed - this became her home port. These were five 152 mm guns, four 107 mm guns and 25.04 mm guns. She was accepted into the Russian fleet on 1 February 1879. In 1882 geographers aboard her surveyed parts of the Kamchatka Peninsula, naming its easternmost point Cape Afrika after the ship.
Her second captain Fyodor Vazsilievitch Dubasov was appointed on 2 November 1883. New boilers were installed in winter 1891–1892. In 1898 two torpedo tubes were added and her third captain was appointed, Nikolai Dmitrievitch Dabitch, who held the command until 1900. Also in 1898 admiral Alexei Popov made the first Russian naval wireless telegraphy transmission from Afrika to the transport ship Europe. In March 1906 she was converted into a naval school, before being permanently anchored in October 1918. She was attached to the Baltic Fleet in December 1920 for use as a transport ship and floating artillery depot, before being sold for scrap to Germany in September 1923.

# Josiah Clerk

Josiah Clerk, M.D. (1639–1714) was an English physician, briefly president of the College of Physicians.

## Life

Clerk was matriculated as a pensioner of Peterhouse, Cambridge, in December 1656, and took the two degrees in medicine, M.B. in 1661, M.D. on 3 July 1666. He was admitted a candidate of the College of Physicians on 26 June 1671, a fellow on 29 July 1675, and was appointed censor in 1677 and 1692. On the death of Sir Thomas Witherley he was named elect on 16 April 1694, delivered the Harveian oration in 1708, was consiliarius in 1707, 1709, 1710, 1711, and 1712, and was elected to the presidency, void by the death of Dr. Edward Browne. On 13 September 1708, he was re-elected at the general election of officers on the 30th of the same month.
Clerk, who was old and ill, was unable to act as president. He resigned on 18 December, and Charles Goodall was appointed on 23 December 1708. He had been chosen treasurer on 16 April 1708, and retained that office as long as he lived. Clerk died at his house in Fenchurch Street in the autumn of 1714, in the seventy-fifth year of his age. In the annals of the college cited by William Munk the date of Clerk's death is given as 8 December, which is erroneous. His will was proved on 14 October. He desired 'to be decently, tho' very privately, buried by night in the vault in St. Olave Hart Street Church, where my honoured mother and my children lye, if it may be done with conveniency.' By his wife Abigail, who survived him, he left a daughter Elizabeth, married to Richard Wilshaw. Clerk's portrait is at the college.

# 1852–53 Colombian presidential election

Presidential elections were held in the Republic of New Granada in 1852 and 1853. The electoral college was elected in 1852 and subsequently elected the president in March 1853.
The Liberal Party, then in power under General José Hilario López after winning the Colombian Civil War of 1851, was assured of victory. Its official candidate General José María Obando had little difficulty winning the election, with his only significant rival being his fellow Liberal Tomás Herrera, who was mainly supported by the Panamanian regionalist movement. The election victory was achieved with a pact of unity between the two factions of Liberalism, the Golgothians (radicals) and the Draconians (moderates).
