# Augusto Valli

Augusto Valli (22 May 1867 – 1945) was an Italian painter, in a Realist style. His journeys to Africa influenced his choice of subject matter and he painted African themes with vibrant colours.

## Life and career

Augusto Valli was born in Modena on 22 May 1867 into a family of modest means. He enrolled in 1879 at the Royal Institute of Fine Arts in Modena under Antonio Simonazzi and Ferdinando Manzini completing his studies at the age of 18 years. There he attended the Corso Comune until 1881–1882 and the Corso Speciale of painting from 1882 to 1884.
In 1885, he travelled to Africa. In 1896, he was part of an expedition to Abyssinia and Ethiopia with the Count Gian Pietro. He was detained in Harar by the British Consulate. He escaped a massacre of the Italian mission by the rebels of the Emir Abdallah. In all, he returned three times to East Africa. His last journey was in 1890-91 where he served as a court painter at the Royal Court of Melenik of Ethiopia. He returned from these voyages with many folders of sketches, some of which were purchased by the Geographic Congress of Rome and are now in the museum of La Società Geografica Italiana.
He illustrated a book (1942) about African (Ethiopian) travels by the colonist Conte Augusto Salimbeni, where he was described as a pittore africanista. For years, he painted for the church of San Giovanni Battista, Spilamberto.

## Work

Valli worked in watercolours and in oils. He also illustrated several books. His style was often impressionistic and with touches of colour.

# They're moving Father's grave to build a sewer

"They're moving Father's grave to build a sewer" (Roud 10391) is a classic comic song, often thought to be from the music hall tradition. It is usually sung in a straight key of C major, but can be varied.

## History

The earliest known mention of the song is in the Altoona Mirror for 15 April 1901, describing the songs played by "street piano music venders" in Altoona, Pennsylvania, which included "They Be Moving Mother's Grave to Build a Sewer". Other early versions include "They Have Shifted Little Willie's Grave to Build a Sewer" sung in 1902 by vaudeville performer Arthur Deming in Indianapolis, and "We Had to Move Paddy's Grave to Dig a Sewer" sung at a 1903 meeting of the Brotherhood of Boiler Makers and Iron Ship Builders in Sacramento, California.
It was a favourite of Frank Muir, who sang it many times on BBC Radio 4. Denis Norden also sang the song for the radio programme My Music.
A version of the song was also recorded by Oscar Brand, on his album Bawdy Songs Goes to College recorded in 1955, under the title "Father's Grave".
A variant of the song, called "Grandpa's Grave", was recorded by the comedian Peter Sellers and included on his 1960 LP with Sophia Loren, Peter & Sophia, as well as on the B-side of the duo's hit single "Goodness Gracious Me".
The song was repopularised by the Clancy Brothers, who included it on their 1965 album Recorded Live in Ireland.
Charles Keeping sang this song for the record version of his 1975 book Cockney Ding Dong.
The Men That Will Not Be Blamed for Nothing recorded a version called "Sewer (Live)" for their 2010 album Now That's What I Call Steampunk! Volume 1.

## Lyrics

Lyrics vary, but Muir's version is thus:
   They're moving Father's grave to build a sewer They're moving it regardless of expense. They're taking his remains, to put in nine-inch drains And provide the public with a nice new gent's. It's such a lovely place behind the gasworks With dandelions growing by the fence: Now it seems a wicked plot To spoil that lovely spot Just for one old rich man's convenience.

# Notre-Dame Church (Montreal)

The Notre-Dame Church was a church in Old Montreal that stood from 1682 until 1830. From 1821 to 1822, it served as the first cathedral of the Diocese of Montreal.

## History

In 1657, the Roman Catholic Sulpician Order arrived in Ville-Marie, now known as Montreal. The parish they founded was dedicated to Mary, and the parish church of Notre-Dame was built between 1672 and 1682. A cross was planted to designate the future emplacement of the church on June 29, 1672 and the next day the first five stones of the church were laid.
The church served as the first cathedral of the Diocese of Montreal from 1821 to 1822.
Throughout the 18th century, the city's primary landmarks were the bell tower of Notre-Dame and Citadel hill.
By 1824 the congregation had completely outgrown the church, and James O'Donnell, an Irish-American Protestant from New York, was commissioned to design the Notre-Dame Basilica. The church was demolished in 1830 and the bell tower in 1843. Foundations from the original Notre-Dame Church lie under Place d'Armes, and were unearthed during the square's 2009-2011 renovations.

## Organists

* Jean Girard (1725-1765)

## Burials

Burial took place in chapel inside the church and in a cemetery outside. The cemetery opened in 1672 and closed in 1830 as the current basilica was being built. Some grave were re-interred in 1799 to Saint-Antoine Cemetery in what is now Dorchester Square and Notre Dame des Neiges Cemetery after bylaw prevented burials within the city in 1853. but some were not exhumed and remain buried under the new buildings.
Notable burials at the old church included:
* Kondiaronk, Chief of the Hurons, buried after a majestic funeral in August 1701. The inscription on his resting place read: Cy git le Rat, Chef des Hurons ("Here lies the Muskrat, Chief of the Hurons"). No trace of the grave remains today, though it is thought that he lies somewhere near the Place d'Armes.
* Pierre Gaultier de Varennes, sieur de La Vérendrye and his wife, at St. Anne's Chapel.

## Gallery

* It was in the centre of town - Dollier de Casson's street plan, 1672
* Place d'Armes in 1828; Notre-Dame Basilica is under construction
# The Business (novel)

The Business is a novel by the Scottish writer Iain Banks, published in 1999.

## Plot introduction

Kate Telman is a 'level 3' executive in the Business, a vast business empire. During her sabbatical year, she comes to suspect that some of her colleagues are stealing from the organisation, and investigates.

## Plot summary

The book starts with a 4:37 a.m. phone call from Mike Daniels to Kathryn (Kate) Telman. He has been drugged, and about half of his teeth randomly and expertly extracted, just before an important meeting in Japan.
The Business is a powerful (yet democratic) multinational commercial organisation, secretive (but not too sinisterly so), and very long-lived. It predates the Roman Catholic Church, and descends from a consortium of merchants in the Roman Empire which it even owned for sixty-six days (it hired a man to become emperor, but he lasted less than a month before being assassinated; a reference to the emperor Didius Julianus). It is now considering taking over a country in order to gain a seat at the United Nations.
The story follows the heroine, Kate Telman, who is 38 and lusts after Stephen Buzetski, who is married. Starting from poverty, she has risen through the Business under the tutelage of her mentor, who adopted her at an early age, and her 'uncle Freddy', the man who invented the portable milk container (named the "chilp").
She is investigating a possible case of someone stealing from the company, starting with strange happenings at a silicon chip manufacturing plant. Although she discovers evidence of wrongdoing at a high level in the Business, she continues to believe in what they are doing as an organisation.
She travels the world, at one point being summoned by a weapon-collecting higher-up in Nebraska to talk his nephew out of writing an incendiary anti-Islamic screenplay. A scene of the book takes place on a ship on its way to be broken up at a shipyard in Sonmiani Bay. She has several telephone conversations with her therapy-damaged friend Luce in California, who provides a cynical, suspicious, foul-mouthed counterpoint to Kate's goodheartedness. She is given a DVD of Stephen's wife having extramarital sex in an attempt to influence her.
She also becomes involved in the acquisition of the small Himalayan country of Thulahn. Small and underdeveloped, bleak and vulnerable, the football pitch doubles as the airport, "the royal palace is heated by yak dung" and the "national sport is emigration". It resembles an exaggerated version of Bhutan.
Under the Business's plan, Thulahn would be utterly changed, if not destroyed, and its people thrust into the modern world. Kate is given the job of negotiating with Thulahn's crown prince Suvinder Dzung, who when he last met her had fallen in love with her.

# St. Barbara Gasthuis

The St. Barbara Gasthuis was a hospital and later a hofje on the Jansstraat in Haarlem, Netherlands. All that remains is a former gateway.
It was founded in 1435 by Hugo van Assendelft according to a chronogram written on the gate built in 1624 by Lieven de Key:
"OM dat WII oVt ende behoeftICh sChenen VerLaten Heeft HVgo Van AffendeLf hIer gestICht tonfer baten"
The capitalized letters that are Roman numerals (the W is read as VV) results in a list of Roman numerals that when added up give the year of establishment of the hospital 1 x M + 3 x C + 2 x L + 6 x V + 5 x I = 1435. As the hospital functions in later centuries were consolidated at the St. Elisabeth Gasthuis, the former hospital became a hofje, which later was abandoned and became derelict. The old hofje was torn down in 1845, leaving the old gateway as a memorial.

# Theater in der Leopoldstadt

The Theater in der Leopoldstadt (also: Leopoldstädter Theater) was an opera house in the Leopoldstadt district of Vienna, founded in 1781 by Karl von Marinelli, following the Schauspielfreiheit (ending of the court's monopoly on entertainment) by Joseph II in 1776. The 19th-century summer stage called the Thaliatheater was also managed by the Leopoldstadt.
In its early years, the theatre staged Singspiele and Possen mit Gesang, notably by the theatre's Kapellmeister Wenzel Müller and his assistant Ferdinand Kauer. The dramatist Ferdinand Raimund worked with the theatre in the 1820s.
The theatre was eventually demolished and rebuilt in 1847, under the name of the Carltheater.

# City Hotel (New Orleans)

The City Hotel in New Orleans, Louisiana, United States, located at the intersection of Camp and Common Streets, was one of the city's major antebellum hotels, but maybe not quite so storied as the older, larger, St. Louis and St. Charles Hotels. As explained by a city historian in 1922, the "social life of New Orleans revolved around its great hotels to a degree greater than was the case, probably, in other American city." As was the case with the St. Charles and the St. Louis, slave auctions were held at the City Hotel before the American Civil War.

## History

The four-story City Hotel was designed by Charles Zimpel, built in 1832 and was originally known as Bishop's Hotel and then as Richardson's Hotel before it became the City Hotel around 1839–1840. The City Hotel was owned and operated for many years by a man named Ruggles S. Morse who had come to New Orleans from Portland, Maine. When the Verandah Hotel burned in 1855, business increased at the City Hotel. During the war Ruggles provided extensive medical supplies and equipment for the benefit of victims of the 1862 Ponchatoula train wreck who were being treated the marine hospital.
Under Ruggles the hotel was especially favored by Texans, steamboat men, and railroad men. Control of the hotel was transferred in 1874 by Col. Morse to W. T. Mumford and Ed. Watson." The City Hotel was demolished in 1888. The Baldwin building was then built on the same site.
# Château de Dax
