# Timiskaming First Nation

Timiskaming (former official designation Timiskaming 19) is a First Nations reserve in the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region of Quebec, Canada, just north of the head of Lake Timiskaming. It belongs to the Timiskaming First Nation, an Algonquin band. It is geographically within the Témiscamingue Regional County Municipality but administratively not part of it.

## History

In 1853, following the proposed distribution by Commissioner of Crown Lands, John Rolph, the Governor General in Council, Charles Monck, 4th Viscount Monck, assigned the Nipissing, Algonquin, and Ottawa Indians of the Timiscaming region a reserve of 38,400 acres (15,500 ha), located along the Ottawa River, and originally known as Temiscamingue Reserve. But piece-by-piece, the reserve was reduced in size when the Indians ceded lots back to the government in 1897, 1898, every year from 1905 to 1917, 1939, 1953, and 1955. But many of these surrenders are now being disputed.
On October 23, 1999, the Quebec government officially recognized a name change from Timiscaming to Timiskaming. On July 30, 2002, the Department of Indian Affairs recognized that the reserve's name was changed to Timiskaming.

# David Hermance

David W. Hermance (September 27, 1947 – November 25, 2006) was an American automotive engineer called the "American father of the Prius." According to Automotive News, Hermance was considered the top American executive for alternative fuel vehicles.
David Weston Hermance was born in Logansport, Indiana to Keith Weston Hermance and Margaret "Peg" Johnstone Hermance. David Hermance earned a Bachelor of Science degree in engineering from the General Motors Institute. He joined General Motors in 1965 and served in a variety of roles in the Vehicle Emissions Laboratory from 1971 to 1985. From 1985 to 1991, Hermance served as department head for durability test development at General Motors. He was a member of the Society of Automotive Engineers.

## Toyota and hybrids

Hermance joined Toyota Technical Center (TTC) in 1991 as senior manager in engine evaluation, with responsibility for evaluating North American passenger car engines. In 1992, he was promoted to general manager of the Powertrain Department in Gardena, California, where he was responsible for the development of engine and drivetrain calibrations for the North American market. His department tested many experimental designs, including TRW's "Electro-Mechanical Transmission" that became the hybrid electric vehicle. Archived 2014-09-08 at the Wayback Machine
At TTC, Hermance went on to become executive engineer for advanced technology vehicles. Widely considered the most knowledgeable person in the United States on the subject of hybrid vehicles, Hermance was responsible for advanced technology vehicle communication for the North American market and advanced technology vehicle emission regulatory activities in California. He was recognized as an eloquent and persuasive spokesman, both in explaining to the public and regulators complex hybrid technology, its advantages and limitations, in lay terms, and with persuading Toyota that the American public would buy hybrid cars in large numbers only if performance and size were not sacrificed.
Interviewed in 2004, Hermance said his championing of the Prius was environmentally motivated, adding, "I'm convinced global warming is real, and that if we're not principally responsible, we're at least contributing to that." In July 2006, Hermance testified before the United States House Committee on Government Reform on the topic: "Hybrid Cars: Increasing Fuel Efficiency and Reducing Oil Dependence."

## Death

Hermance was an avid pilot and flew his Russian Yak-55 aerobatic airplane regularly in aerobatic competition at the Intermediate level. Hermance died on November 25, 2006, while flying an Interavia E-3 off the California coast. Engine failure is not believed to be the cause of the crash.
# William Thomas Lambie

William Thomas Lambie (1837–1900) was a civil engineer who worked on construction projects throughout the American Southwest in the 19th century and was a member of the Los Angeles, California, Common Council, the governing body of that city. He was killed in the collapse of a tunnel on January 21, 1900.

## Personal

Lambie was born November 9, 1837, in Williamsport, Maryland, the son of John Lambie of Golston, Ayreshire, Scotland, and Eliza Ann Krebs of Maryland. He was married on June 3, 1872, in Washington, D.C., to Leonora Wingard Entler of Shepherdstown, West Virginia, and they had three children, Grace Virginia, Nellie Entler (Mrs. William F. Goble) and Hugh Krebs.

## Tunnel collapse

Lambie, who was working for the city engineer as an inspector at the time, was among twelve men who were buried or trapped when the west end of the Second Street Tunnel collapsed shortly after 11 a.m. on January 21, 1900, as it was being dug beneath Bunker Hill. He was pinned down under a mass of earth and broken timbers, but workers scraped the earth from his face so he could breathe. Workers could not remove the wooden beams, so they dug beneath him. For a time he was in danger of drowning in water from broken pipes. He was removed from the tunnel at 8 p.m. and taken to Good Samaritan Hospital, where he died a half-hour later.
Funeral services were conducted on January 24 by P.F. Bresee and J.R. Compton. Pallbearers came from the Masonic order and the Confederate Veterans.

## Vocation

Lambie enlisted in the Confederate Army on April 20, 1861, in Covington, Virginia, and served in the First Virginia Brigade. While still a lieutenant, he took part in the Gettysburg Campaign between June 3 and August 1, 1863. He rose to the rank of major.
He came to California in 1869 and worked as a civil engineer for the Central Pacific and Southern Pacific railroads. In 1871 he was sent to do surveying for a proposed line from Lake Tahoe to the north fork of the American River, the "idea being that a tunnel constructed on such a line and low enough to tap the lake could be built at the joint expense of the Central Pacific railroad company and the City of San Francisco to make that lake available as a supply for water." The endeavor was abandoned after "several weeks of hard work" and "a heavy rain that turned to snow."
He was in charge of the construction of the Newhall Tunnel in 1876, after which he moved to Los Angeles and worked on projects in the Southwestern United States as far east as El Paso, Texas.

## Public service

Lambie, a Democrat, was elected to represent the 1st Ward on the Los Angeles Common Council on December 4, 1883, for a one-year term and was re-elected the next year.
He was city surveyor and city engineer for a year beginning December 5, 1887.

## Legacy

Lambie Street, just south of Lincoln Park (Los Angeles) and Valley Boulevard in Boyle Heights, was named for him.

He saw service related to the Indian Rebellion of 1857 and the 1854–55 Siege of Sebastapol during the Crimean War.
He returned to Los Angeles, in the U.S. state of California, in 1860 at about age 18 and began the private study of law in the offices of Glassell, Smith & Patton. He practiced law for a time but gave it up to manage and develop his extensive land holdings. He was credited with opening and developing East 7th Street on his family properties. He was a charter member of the Pioneer Society of Southern California and the Native Sons of the Golden West.
A Catholic, Sabichi was married to Magdalena Wolfskill, the daughter of pioneer settler William Wolfskill, on May 4, 1865. They had thirteen children. Those who survived were Frank W., Agatha (Mrs. J. J. Fay), Joseph Rodney, George Carlos, William Wolfskill, Louis S., and Beatrice (Mrs. S. Mitchell).
Sabichi died at the age of fifty-eight on April 12, 1900, in his home at 2437 South Figueroa Street. A doctor in attendance said the cause was probably "due to a stroke of apoplexy."

### Public service

He was on the first board of directors of the Union Bank of Savings in Los Angeles in 1893.
In March 1897 Ferguson announced he would give "$20 per month for the next five or six months, or more, if necessary, for the construction of a boulevard" between Los Angeles and Pasadena, through Elysian Park, "provided no railway franchise be granted on said boulevard."
Ferguson purchased the Cahuenga Oil Company, with its ten acres of land and three wells, in 1901 for $14,000.
He died of heart failure on April 8, 1910, in his home at 758 Rampart Street.
