# John Charles Melliss

John Charles Melliss (23 January 1835 – 23 August 1910) was a British engineer and amateur naturalist. He lived in St. Helena and wrote a book on the geology, history and geography of the island in 1875. He also wrote on the natural history of the island. J.D. Hooker named the genus Mellissia in his honour.

## Biography

Melliss was born on the island of St Helena in the South Atlantic Ocean. His father, Captain W. J. Melliss, was an officer of the St Helena Artillery. After training as an engineer at King's College, and serving as an officer in the Royal Engineers, he was appointed successor to his father as Commissioner and Surveyor Engineer of St. Helena from 1860 to 1871. In 1870 he planned a tunnel through Mundens Hill connecting James Valley with Ruperts Valley but this never happened. In 1871, because of government cutbacks, he was made redundant and returned to London, where he subsequently formed the firm of J.C. Melliss and Co. He worked on the drainage of the Lower Thames Valley and the Coventry and Leyton sewage works.
In 1875, he published the book for which he is best known: St. Helena: A Physical, Historical and Topographical Description of the Island, Including the Geology, Fauna, Flora and Meteorology. It was illustrated by his wife, Alice Elizabeth Louisa Melliss, née Stace, who was credited on the title page as "Mrs. J. C. Melliss", and on plates as "A. Melliss".
To commemorate the book's centenary in 1975, the St. Helena Post Office published a set of four stamps, using illustrations from the book.
Melliss inspired Thomas Vernon Wollaston, a noted beetle specialist, to visit St Helena with his wife Edith in 1875-76. Wollaston studied the beetles in Coleoptera Sanctæ-Helenæ (1875) while his wife wrote an account of the moths of the island.
Melliss died at his Hampstead home on 23rd August 1910.

## Recognition

Joseph Dalton Hooker named the monotypic plant genus Mellissia in his honour for the plant Mellissia begoniifolia, the St Helena Boxwood. It was subsequently subsumed into the genus Withania.
The Silver Eel (Ariosoma mellissii), also known as the Melliss's Conger was named for him by Albert Gunther.

## Family

The Melliss's son, Hugh John Melliss, born in 1880 joined his father's company (later named Melliss and Partners following a partnership with H.R. Smart). He worked for the company until 1955.
# Demoncy

Demoncy is an American black metal band formed in 1989 in Sylva, North Carolina by musician Ixithra. They are known to be one of the first American black metal bands.

## History

The band originally formed in 1989 as a solo project by Ixithra as an outlet to express darkness through skilled and creative art. With several side projects and pseudonyms, he has been known as Wicked Warlock Of Demonic Blasphemy and Lord Of The Sylvan Shadows. The music is regarded as both otherworldly and demonic.
In 1992, Ixithra joined the USBM band Profanatica in the role of guitar player. Displeased with the sound of their new album on which he performed, Ixithra set an industrial magnet to the master tapes in a rage, destroying the entire creation. He terminated the relationship immediately and reformed Demoncy.
It was with the 1999 release of Joined In Darkness, that Demoncy was cemented in black metal history. Regarded by many as the finest example of USBM ever produced The band toured the US and Europe and were featured in several metal music festivals.
Throughout the several versions of Demoncy, Ixithra has fired his entire band instantly for not displaying professional musicianship and the darkness required to perform within the Black Metal genre.

## Significance

Demoncy is credited as early practitioners of black metal in the United States, who did not imitate the popularized Early Norwegian black metal scene.

## Style and ideology

Demoncy is known for keeping away from the commercial masses, putting a focus on the mysteries of the occult and the theme of keeping the purity of darkness in the music's design.
Song lyrics are centered on occult and magical themes.
Not limiting themselves only to Satanism or similarly popular paganist thinking, the band are fiercely anti-collectivist. There is a focus on elements of atmospheric and ethereal horror, nihilism and individualism.
