# Peebles (store)

Peebles was an American chain of department stores owned by Stage Stores, Inc. and headquartered in Houston, Texas.
Peebles operated stores mainly in the eastern and upper-midwestern United States areas of Alabama, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia and Wisconsin.
The store specialized in retailing on-trend men's, women's, and children's apparel, accessories, cosmetics, footwear, and housewares. Brands exclusively found at Peebles included Valerie Stevens; Signature Studio; Sun River; Rustic Blue; Rebecca Malone; and Wishful Park.

## History

Peebles was founded in 1891 by William Smith Peebles, who opened his first store in Lawrenceville, Virginia.
Peebles mainly concentrated on small towns that didn’t have department stores, thus avoiding bigger cities and higher rents.
In 1981 the company acquired The Collins Company, a line of mid-priced, comparable stores. Collins was based in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The family sold the company in 1986 for $85 million (~$200 million in 2023) to two investment banking firms and to Peebles’ senior management.
The company had been sold twice before Stage Stores acquired Peebles in 2003 when it was based in South Hill, Virginia. At the time, Peebles had more than 125 stores primarily in the Mid-Atlantic, Southeastern and Midwest states.
After decades of expansion Peebles acquired the Nashville-based upscale Harveys Department Stores chain in September 1988, renaming the stores as Peebles.
In 1998, Peebles purchased Watson's, a similar chain, later renaming all the Watson's stores as Peebles.
Houston-based Stage Stores purchased Peebles for $167 million in cash and $46.9 million in debt in 2003. In August 2019, it was announced that all Peebles stores, along with all other stores operated by Stage Stores Inc, would be converted into Gordmans stores.
On May 10, 2020, Stage announced it had filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, and that it would liquidate all locations, Peebles and Gordmans included, unless a buyer purchased the chain. Ultimately, no buyer was found, and going out of business sales began at all locations.

# Hôtel de Ville, Le Havre

The Hôtel de Ville (French pronunciation:, City Hall) is the local seat of government in Le Havre, Normandy, France. It was designated a monument historique by the French government in 2017.

## History

The Hôtel de Ville was commissioned to replace a 19th century town hall, which was designed by Charles Brunet-Debaine in the Châteauesque style, built in ashlar stone and completed in 1857. It was completely destroyed by British military bombardment in September 1944 during the Second World War.
The new building was built on the site of the old town hall. It was designed by Auguste Perret in the modern style and construction began using reinforced concrete in 1953. After Perret died in February 1954, Jacques Tournant supervised the development of the design until the building was officially opened on 14 July 1958.
The design of the main block involved a symmetrical main frontage of 15 bays facing south onto Place d'Hôtel de Ville. It was fenestrated by tall casement windows on the first floor and by smaller caement windows on the second floor, all flanked by columns supporting a long entablature. The main block, which accommodated the exhibition and reception rooms, was 143 metres (469 ft) in length, and the 18-storey tower, at the west end, which accommodated the offices, was 70 metres (230 ft) high. The design was initially controversial, as some members of the city council wanted a reconstruction of the earlier city hall. The tower drew strong criticism, as such skyscrapers were considered American and not French.
A theatre, adjoining the Hôtel de Ville to the east, was inaugurated in October 1967, and a large extension to the north, designed in an unsympathetic style, was completed in 1987. By moving the car parking underground, the city council was able to create a huge garden, involving over 50,000 plants, on a site to the south of the Hôtel de Ville in 1990. Perret's redesigned city has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2005.

# Charles Gordon-Lennox, 8th Duke of Richmond

## Biography

Lord Settrington was the son of Charles Gordon-Lennox, 7th Duke of Richmond (at the time known as Earl of March, as his father, the 6th Duke was still alive) by his first wife, Amy Mary Ricardo (1849–1879), daughter of Percy Ricardo, of Bramley Park and Mathilde Hensley. He was styled as Earl of March when his father held the dukedom, and inherited the dukedom upon his father's death in 1928, holding the title for only seven years.
He was promoted to captain while in the service of the 3rd (Militia) Battalion, Royal Sussex Regiment. In December 1899 he was seconded as a staff officer, and appointed an Aide-de-camp to Lord Roberts, Commander-in-Chief of the forces in South Africa during the early part of the Second Boer War. He was appointed Lieutenant-Colonel in command of the Sussex Yeomanry on 8 July 1914, just before the outbreak of World War I.

# Pedro Blanco (slave trader)

Pedro Blanco (1795 – 1854) was a Spanish slave trader based in Gallinas on the coast of Sierra Leone between 1822 and 1838. Before entering the slave trade, Blanco ran a sugar mill in Cuba.
Blanco sailed to Africa on the Conquistador, one of his ships, to participate in the lucrative and well-established Atlantic slave trade. He began trading in African slaves in 1822, and by 1839 he controlled a network that fed Cuba, the United States and Brazil with slaves for plantations. Blanco expanded his operation by establishing a working relationship with the local ruler, African King Siaka of Gallinas (Vai).
He eventually had agents stationed at Cape Mount, Shebar, Digby, Nuevo Sestos and elsewhere. Blanco entered a partnership with one Lino Carballo, with a center of operations in Havana and other branches in Puerto Rico, Trinidad, and the Republic of Texas. His mercantile standing was so high that his credit bills were enthusiastically accepted in New York City, London and many other well-known financial centers.
In Lomboko, Blanco built himself a private kingdom with storehouses on an island, his office on another island, and houses for his African wives on yet a third island. Slaves awaiting shipment were housed on the islands of Taro and Kamasun. In 1838, Blanco left Africa for Cuba and went to Barcelona, all the time trading in slaves. He left Gallinas just before most of the La Amistad Africans reached his stockades, but he left behind a network of employees to continue his business. It is likely that some of them handled the Amistad Africans. At any rate, he played a vital part in the development of the slave trade in this region. Due to military pressure from the United Kingdom, Blanco's business finally collapsed in 1848, and in 1854 he died in Genoa.
His last known living relatives, Matias and Lucas Blanco are currently living in Miami, Florida.

## Popular Culture

Spanish actor and writer Carlos Bardem wrote a novel about Pedro Blanco called Mongo Blanco and was published by Plaza & Janés in 2019.
