# Giacomo Segre

Giacomo Segre (b. Saluzzo, March 7, 1839; d. Chieri, October 5, 1894) was a Jewish Italian military officer during the Risorgimento.

## Biography

On September 20, 1870, Captain Segre participated in the Capture of Rome.

### Mythologized role

According to popular history, Pius IX had threatened to excommunicate whoever gave the order to open fire on the city. The threat did not deter the attack, however; the order did not come from Raffaele Cadorna but instead from Segre himself, as commander of the 5th battery of the 9th Regiment.

### Factual record

The historical record differs from the legend. Segre was put in command not because he was Jewish and thus able to avoid excommunication; this is a myth — he was given his authority because of his military acumen and was noted for his battery's discipline and accuracy.
Segre did give a command to fire and contributed to the fall of Porta Pia, but his order was not the first. Rather, the artilleries of the 9th and 13th divisions opened fire at 5:15 am, and the 11th and 12th also attacked before Segre's reserves fired their first shots at 5:20 am. The totality of the bombardment eventually broke through Rome's fortifications, with Segre's commander Major Luigi Pelloux commending his precision and success.

### Family

Giacomo's son Roberto (1872–1936) served in the Italian Army as well, eventually becoming a general.

## Legacy

Giacomo Segre's legacy is that of an important if unknown figure in the fight for Italian unification, particularly among the Jews of Italy. In 2021, the Jewish Museum of Rome opened an exhibit dedicated to the 150th anniversary of the role of Jewish soldiers in the breach of Porta Pia and the Capture of Rome.
# Giovanni Battista Casali del Drago

He was ordained a priest in 1860 and went on to become a canon of the Patriarchal Lateran Basilica and private chamberlain de numero participantium of Pope Blessed Pius IX. He later became a canon of the Patriarchal Vatican Basilica and a prelate.
On November 29, 1895, he was appointed titular Latin Patriarch of Constantinople with residence in the Roman Curia. He was consecrated by Mariano Rampolla del Tindaro, the Cardinal Secretary of State of the Holy See. In June 1899 he was created cardinal-priest. From 1901 to 1902 he was a Camerlengo of the Sacred College of Cardinals. He took part in the conclave of 1903.

# Chipchase Castle

Chipchase Castle is a 17th-century Jacobean mansion incorporating a substantial 14th-century pele tower, which stands north of Hadrian's Wall, near Wark on Tyne, between Bellingham and Hexham in Northumberland, England. It is a Scheduled Ancient Monument and a Grade I listed building.

## History

The Heron family acquired the Manor of Chipchase by the marriage of Walter Heron to the Chipchase heiress. He built a massive four-storey battlemented tower house on the site of an earlier house in the mid-14th century.
A survey in 1541 described a "fare tower" with a "manor of stone joined thereto" owned by John Heron.
In 1621, Cuthbert Heron (High Sheriff of Northumberland in 1625) demolished the house and built a fine Jacobean mansion, leaving the tower standing and attached to the new house. His first son George was killed at the Battle of Marston Moor in 1644 in the service of Charles I. His second son Cuthbert was created a Baronet by Charles II (see Heron Baronets), but he experienced financial problems which eventually led to the sale of the estate by the Herons to George Allgood, a Newcastle merchant, in 1727.
John Reed, a Newcastle upon Tyne banker, acquired the estate in 1734. Reed carried out major alterations to the castle, including a classical façade to the old tower. The failure of Reed's family bank caused his descendants to sell the estate to the Greys of Backworth in 1821 to defray debts. The Greys then sold the estate to Hugh Taylor in 1861.

## Today

The castle is privately owned. It is associated with Paul Torday, the author of the novel Salmon Fishing in the Yemen, which was made into a popular film. He lived there with his second wife Penelope (née Taylor), who inherited the estate, and reportedly did much to help manage it.
The grounds are open to the public but the Castle is open to the public only in June.
