# The Borribles Go For Broke

The Borribles Go For Broke is the second volume of the Borrible Trilogy, written by Michael de Larrabeiti and first published in 1981 by The Bodley Head in the United Kingdom.

## Plot summary

Borribles are runaway children whose ears become pointed as they take to the streets, indicators of their independence and intelligence. As long as their ears remain unclipped they will never age; for this reason, they wear woollen hats pulled low over their ears in order to remain undetected by the authorities, who find their freedom threatening to the social order. Borribles are skinny, scruffy, and tough; they have nothing to do with money, and steal what they need to survive.
Following on from the adventures of The Great Rumble Hunt, the second volume of The Borrible Trilogy begins with the surviving adventurers (such as Chalotte and Sydney and Vulge) discovering that Sam the horse is still alive. In attempting to rescue him the Borribles are lured into danger both by the newly-established Special Borrible Group, a branch of the police determined to wipe out the Borribles and their way of life, and by one of their own – Spiff, whose motives behind the mission to Rumbledom are slowly revealed.
All this leads the Borribles deep in to Wendle territory beneath the streets of Wandsworth, and down in to a shifting tunnel of mud dug deep beneath the mudflats of the Wandle River.

## Film adaptation

While a July 2004 report in Variety revealed that a film based on the entire trilogy was being developed by CUBA Pictures, the film development arm of literary agents Curtis Brown, as of 2022 no such film can be found at IMDb, Variety Insight, nor other such online databases of information related to films.

## Reception

David Langford reviewed The Borribles Go For Broke in the May 1984 issue of White Dwarf, stating:
   Sussworth and his minion Sergeant Hanks are brilliantly awful grotesques, like Dickens characters; with their ghastly dedication they'd burn any number of ideologically unsound books, especially this one. Meanwhile the main story is about bloody internecine strife between Borribles, and amounts to a mini-epic. Fine stuff.

# John G. Lawton

The John G. Lawton was a steamboat of the Savannah River in the United States. The ship's boilers exploded on June 9, 1859, just beyond Gum Stump Landing, about 20 mi (32 km) above the city of Savannah, Georgia, killing and injuring several people. The steamboat Excel "was in sight" at the time of the explosion and "promptly rendered assistance". The explosion was a cover story in Frank Leslie's Illustrated News.
Among those identified as killed:
* Gatty or Gates of Barnwell, South Carolina
* Mr. Washington Goette of Silver Hill, South Carolina (possibly same as previous)
* Edward Grant, "white deck hand"
* John S. Montmollin, banker and illegal slave trader of Savannah
* John Robison, "colored cabin boy, property of Mrs. P. Prendergast," possibly also described as "John Robertson, waiter, colored, missing"
* Richard Scaborough, deck passenger, of Purysburg
* John Stone, "colored fireman, property of F.M. Stone" of Columbus, Georgia
* James Strobhart of Savannah
* John Williams, "colored pilot"
Missing:
* Capt. T.G. Keeble
* Allen, the property of Mr. Orman
* Negro, property of Mr. Augustus Osmand (possibly same as Allen)
* "Colored deckhand, name unknown"
   Early on Saturday morning the body of Mr. J. S. Montmollin, a passenger on board the ill-fated Lawton was brought to Savannah. The body was found on the edge of the marsh, some 150 yards from where the explosion occurred. It was discovered by a negro, who had climbed a tree to take a survey of the marsh; he could see the legs of the body protruding from the mud, and directed those on the ground to the spot where it lay. The body was found buried in the mud up to the thighs, and almost in a perpendicular position, with the legs above, half covered with water. It took the united strength of three negroes to extricate the body from the position.
# 1863 Queensland colonial election

# Corbit's Charge

Corbit's Charge was a skirmish fought on June 29, 1863, in Westminster, Maryland, during the American Civil War between the cavalry commanded by Confederate General J.E.B. Stuart and two companies of the 1st Delaware Cavalry shortly before the Battle of Gettysburg. The skirmish, also known as the Battle of Westminster, is thought to have contributed to the delay of Stuart's arrival in Gettysburg and subsequently contributed to the defeat of Confederate forces there.

## Background

Stuart's three brigades of cavalry, after crossing the Potomac River and threatening Washington, D.C., proceeded north toward Pennsylvania, east of the main Confederate army and pursuing Union forces, following loose instructions from Confederate Commander Robert E. Lee. Meanwhile, Companies C and D of the 1st Delaware Cavalry were sent from Baltimore to Westminster to guard the Western Maryland Railway junction and arrived the day before the battle.

## Battle

The Delaware cavalry companies, totaling less than 100 men and commanded by Major Napoleon B. Knight, had arrived unaware of Stuart's impending approach, bivouacked near the northwestern end of town and found the town quiet. The next day, some of the Union troopers decided to have their horses reshod at a stable near the southern end of town. While there, the first Confederate cavalry arrived at the southern end of Westminster and captured those troopers.
Major Knight was absent then, so Captain Charles Corbit, one of the company commanders, rallied the remaining troopers and led a cavalry charge down Main Street in Westminster towards Stuart's cavalry, meeting them at the intersection with Washington Road. They were quickly defeated by the Confederates, and Captain Corbit, along with the other company commander, Lieutenant Caleb Churchman, were captured, along with more than half of the other Union troopers. Two were killed and 11 wounded. Two Confederate officers were killed and ten more troopers were wounded. One of the Confederate officers, Lt. John William Murray, Co. E, 4th Virginia cavalry, remains buried in the graveyard of Ascension Episcopal Church.

## Aftermath

The battle prompted Stuart's cavalry to stay the night in Westminster, delaying his arrival at Gettysburg and depriving Gen. Lee of important intelligence about Union troop movements and leading him to commit to fighting at Gettysburg.

## Commemoration

In 2003 the City of Westminster began holding the Commemoration of Corbit's Charge during the last full weekend of June, which has grown into a festival including Civil War re-enactors, demonstrations, museum tours, musical concerts and more.
# Battle of Mount Sterling

The Battle of Mount Sterling was a minor action in the American Civil War that occurred in June 1864 in Mount Sterling, Kentucky.

## Background

U.S. and C.S. forces alternated control of Mount Sterling during the American Civil War. On March 22, 1863, about 300 Confederate cavalrymen under Colonel Leroy Cluke captured the city, taking 438 prisoners, 222 wagon loads of military goods, 500 mules, and 1000 stand of arms. Confederate troops burned the Mount Sterling courthouse, resulting in the loss of early city records. About one-half of Kentucky county courthouses were deliberately burned down during the Civil War, resulting in a vast loss of records.

## Battle

On June 8, 1864, General John Hunt Morgan's Cavalry attacked U.S. forces guarding a vital supply depot at Mount Sterling. The C.S. forces attacked the U.S. Army camp in Mount Sterling under the command of Captain Edward Barlow. The Confederates captured 380 prisoners and material and took $59,000 from Farmers' Bank. Leaving a force under Colonel H. L. Giltner, Morgan moved west with the 2nd Brigade.
Early in the morning on June 9, 1864, U.S. forces under General Stephen G. Burbridge attacked the Confederates camped on Camargo Pike under the command of Colonel R. M. Martin. Colonel H. L. Giltner brought a force from Levee Road to support Martin's besieged men, but both forces were driven back through the town. The Confederate counterattack failed to overcome the opposing force, and losses were incurred on both sides.
The battle continued sporadically throughout the surrounding countryside, leaving relics like ammunition and sabers buried in the ground, some of which are still being found as fields are plowed. The battle ended with the defeat of the outnumbered Confederates, marking the last of the actual fighting for Montgomery County, Kentucky. The aftermath of the battle included 8 killed, 13 wounded for the Confederates and 4 killed, 10 wounded for the United States.

In response to the Fenian occupation of the township of Fort Erie, Canada West, on the night of June 1, 1866, militia units throughout the Niagara Peninsula had been mobilized or put on alert. At Port Colborne, a detachment of 51 gunners and NCOs, British Royal Artillery Bombardier Sergeant James McCracken and three officers (Captain Richard S. King M.D., Lieutenants A.K. Schofield and Charles Nimmo [Nemmo]) taken under command by Lieutenant-Colonel John Dennis, boarded a tugboat, the W.T. Robb, carrying the Dunnville Naval Brigade, consisting of 19 men and 3 officers (Captain Lachlan McCallum, Lieutenant Walter T. Robb, Second Lieutenant Angus Macdonald) (a total of 71 men and 8 officers) and steamed east to the Niagara River, then scouted downriver as far as Black Creek. The Welland Field Battery did not have its four Armstrong guns with it, and only half were armed with Enfield muzzle-loading rifles, with the other half armed with obsolete smooth-bore "Victoria" carbines that had a limited range of approximately 300 yards at best.
Thinking the Fenians were gone, Canadian volunteers turned back upriver to secure the village of Fort Erie and deny them an escape route. A company of the Welland Field Battery landed without difficulty, capturing around 59 of the Fenian soldiers. But when John O'Neill returned with most of his large army from the nearby Battle of Ridgeway, the small number of Canadian volunteers that were sent to capture a small numbers of Fenian soldiers were not prepared. A firefight followed, in which the militia and sailors were outnumbered by Fenian soldiers causing most of the Canadian volunteers to surrender. The remaining Canadian volunteers on the gunboat went back to Port Colborne to inform of the situation while O'Neill the Fenian soldiers stayed in Fort Erie. Later, an estimated 5,000 Canadian militia reinforcements informed of the situation came and surrounded the Fenian movement’s army in Fort Erie. Causing O'Neill to retreat back to New York State.

# Bradshaw High School

Bradshaw High School was a public high school in Florence, Alabama, United States. It was founded in 1966 as the second public high school in Florence because of continued growth for youth in the eastern parts of the city.

# Rosa Fort High School

Rosa Fort High School (RFHS) is a senior high school in unincorporated Tunica County, Mississippi, adjacent to the North Tunica CDP, and near Tunica (with a Tunica postal address).
It is a part of the Tunica County School District, which includes all of Tunica County.

## History

After the rise of the gambling industry in the county in the 1990s, an influx of tax revenue went into the school system. In 1990, according to a Fortune article about Tunica, one in three students at Tunica's high school graduated from high school. In 1991 no agency tracked graduation rates. According to the Fortune article, while "[m]ore kids are graduating from high school - there's no way to know for sure" whether a significant improvement had been made in the year 2007. Despite the influx of tax revenue, the article argues, Rosa Fort High in 2007 was "a stubborn underperformer." That year, it was ranked a "two" or "underperforming" in the State of Mississippi's five point scale. The article concluded that "Rosa Fort students aren't a whole lot better off academically than before the casinos arrived." Ronald Love, who had been hired by the state in 1997 to supervise the Tunica school system, said "It is like Tunica suffers from a hangover from 100 years of poverty. There are vestiges of it everywhere: in education, in local politics, in the housing. And when you have been the poorest of the poor, well, an infusion of resources might lighten your load, but you still have the hangover."
As of 2010 98% of the students were black. This differed from the private Tunica Academy (formerly Tunica Institute for Learning) a segregation academy founded in the desegregation period, where 97% were white.
