## Early life

Joseph Augustus Wickes was born on September 27, 1826, in Chestertown, Maryland to Elizabeth (née Chambers) and Joseph Wickes. His father was a soldier in the War of 1812 and participated in the Battle of Cork's Hill. He was also the deputy attorney general for Kent and Cecil Counties. Wickes is a descendant of Major Joseph Wickes who came to America from England in 1650 and served as a judge in Kent County.
Wickes attended Washington College in Chestertown. He graduated from Princeton University in 1845. He then studied medicine at the University of Maryland and graduated in 1848. Wickes then studied law under his father and was admitted to the bar in 1852.

## Career

Wickes was a Democrat. He was an elector at the 1852 Democratic National Convention. In 1854, Wickes moved to Cumberland to pursue a law career. He was elected to the Maryland House of Delegates, representing Allegany County in 1855. He served in 1856 and was a member of the judiciary committee.
In 1858, Wickes health declined and he moved back to Chestertown. In 1859, he started a law practice in Chestertown. He continued practicing until 1866, when he was appointed as a delegate to the 1866 National Union Convention. He was then elected as a delegate from Kent County for a constitutional convention, resulting in the Maryland Constitution of 1867.
Wickes was nominated as a judge for the Second Judicial Circuit Court, representing Cecil, Kent, Queen Anne, Caroline and Talbot counties, under the new constitution. He was elected for a term of fifteen years in 1869, alongside John Mitchell Robinson and Frederick Stump. He was re-elected for another term of fifteen years again in 1882.

# Georgy Znamensky

Georgy Ivanovich Znamensky (Russian: Геóргий Ивáнович Знáменский, 12 June 1903 – 28 December 1946) was a Russian middle-distance and long-distance runner.
Znamensky was born in a family of a priest and had four sisters and five brothers; one of them, Seraphim, became his long-term training partner and rival in athletics. By the age of 20 Georgy was the fittest man in his locality, yet he later had two health-threatening accidents: once, during the harvest works, a horse stepped on his foot, which required a surgery. Later, while serving with the Black Sea Navy, his boat overturned drowning the crew. Znamensky was the sole survivor.
After retiring from the Navy, in 1931 Georgy found a job at a factory in Moscow. He could not afford a room in the city and lived together with Seraphim at the house of a family friend. In those years the brothers trained by running 16 km between their home and the factory where they worked, while their diet consisted of rye bread, potato, and plenty of milk (a bucket per day for two).
In 1932 the brothers started competing, and shortly established themselves as the best Soviet runners, with Seraphim being the stronger of the two. Contensting various 1000 m – 10,000 m events the brothers finished 18 times within the podium at the Soviet championships in 1934–1940 and set 24 national records. They rarely competed internationally, as the Soviet Union was not a member of the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF), yet in 1935, 1937 and 1938 they won the annual 8 km cross-country race established by L'Humanité in France.
In 1936 the brothers enrolled to the Russian National Research Medical University and graduated in 1941. At the onset of World War II in Russia they both volunteered as medical doctors to the Soviet Army. Seraphim killed himself in 1942, while Georgy died of cancer in late 1946. Before that he attended the 1946 European Athletics Championships as a physician of the Soviet team. In 1949, an annual athletics competition was established in honor of the brothers, the Brothers Znamensky Memorial. In 1958 it received the international status and later became a major IAAF meeting. In 1961 an Olympic sports school and the associated athletics complex have been founded in Moscow and named after the brothers.

Swilling Butte is a 6,785-foot (2,068 m)-elevation ridgeline summit located in the eastern Grand Canyon, in Coconino County of northern Arizona, United States. The landform is in a group of nearby summits, Colter Butte, west, and Hutton and Duppa Buttes, east. All four buttes are at the north of the east-flowing Kwagunt Creek and Canyon drainage to the Colorado River. Swilling Butte is 3.0 miles (4.8 km) northeast of Atoko Point, East Rim of the Walhalla Plateau (Kaibab Plateau, North Rim), and 4.0 miles (6.4 km) west of the (north)-East Rim, Grand Canyon; the south-flowing Colorado River is west and adjacent to the East Rim. Swilling Butte is a triangular-platform summit of bright-red, tall Redwall Limestone. Being a cliff-former, the Redwall is also a platform-former. The upper platform of the Redwall Limestone supports a remainder-debris of the Supai Group (a 4-unit group). Of the two lower units, no. 2 is a cliff-former, hard rocks (cliffs), of the Manakacha Formation; the slope-former, (unit no. 1), the Watahomigi Formation, forms most of the Supai debris upon the Redwall. Below the Redwall Limestone are members of the Cambrian Tonto Group, the Muav Limestone and the slopes of the Bright Angel Shale.
