# Confederate Soldiers and Sailors Monument (Birmingham, Alabama)

The Confederate Soldiers and Sailors Monument was a commemorative obelisk that was erected in Linn Park, Birmingham, Alabama in 1905. The monument was dismantled and removed in 2020.

## History

The cornerstone of the Monument plinth was laid during the 1894 Reunion of United Confederate Veterans on Confederate Decoration Day, April 26. and contained a Bible and Confederate flag. The slab of rock was unused for several years, though a surplus artillery piece from the Spanish–American War of 1898 once rested on it. On May 29, 1896, The United Daughters of the Confederacy held a meeting to decide what to do with the plinth and, in 1900, raised money for construction of the obelisk. The 52-foot tall (16 m) monument was completed on April 27, 1905.
In 2017, following widespread concern about the monument being a symbol of historic racism, the Birmingham city council erected a barrier surrounding the memorial, resulting in a lawsuit being brought against it by the state. In January 2019, an Alabama court declared unconstitutional the Alabama Memorial Preservation Act that prohibited "alteration" of the monument. The lower court's decision was reversed in November 2019 by the state Supreme Court, which upheld a fine of $25,000 against the city council.
Following protests in 2020 after the murder of George Floyd, during which protestors damaged and tried to remove the monument, the city council removed the obelisk, leaving only the plinth. The state Attorney General responded by filing a new lawsuit against the city council saying the removal was in violation of the Alabama Memorial Preservation Act of 2017, a law passed specifically to prevent the removal of this monument. It was the most prominent Confederate monument in the state. The Alabama Attorney General filed suit against the city of Birmingham for violating the statute. Mayor Randall Woodfin said the expected $25,000 fine for removing the statue would be much more affordable than the cost of continued unrest in the city.
# John Allen Farm massacre

The John Allen Farm massacre occurred in South Argyle, Washington County, New York, on 25 or 26 July 1777 during the advancement of the British army in the Saratoga campaign of the American Revolutionary War. Six members of the John Allen family and two or three enslaved servants loaned to the Allens were killed by Native Americans attached to General John Burgoyne's British troops. Shortly thereafter, on 27 July, Native Americans led by the warrior Le Loup attacked and killed Jane McCrea in nearby Fort Edward, which garnered publicity in newspapers along the eastern seaboard of America and is believed to have helped rally locals to the American patriotic cause.

## Events

On the day they were killed, members of the Allen family and the enslaved servants were harvesting wheat in the fields of the Allen farm, approximately 3.3 mi (5.3 km) south of the village of Argyle. As the workers gathered for the midday meal, the Native Americans attacked the farmhouse, killing all and taking their scalps. Killed were John Allen, his wife Eva Kilmer Allen, daughters Eva and Elizabeth, baby John, Eva Kilmer Allen's younger sister Catherine Kilmer, and African American enslaved servants Tom, Sarah, and an unnamed individual.

## Memorials

A stone cairn, erected in 1927 near where the Allen farmhouse stood, is believed to be the final resting spot for those killed. Two nearby New York State historical markers on Allen Road, off of County Road 49, note the event, and a memorial was dedicated in July 2017 on the 240th anniversary in Prospect Hill Cemetery in Argyle. In Spring 2023, a memorial marker was placed in the nearby South Argyle Church Cemetery also commemorating the event.

# Ildebrando Zacchini

Ildebrando Zacchini (July 31, 1868 – July 17, 1948) was an Italian-born painter, inventor, and travelling circus owner.
Inspired by the works of Jules Verne, Zacchini came up with an idea for a human cannonball act. Instead of explosives, Zacchini's human-firing cannon used compressed air, and he first tested it on his son Hugo Zacchini.
The idea for the cannonball act was initially proposed to the Italian government as a military maneuver to be used in conjunction with parachutes; when the proposal was rejected Zacchini looked to use the technique as part of an entertainment act.
Zacchini died in Tampa, Florida in 1948. Members of the Zacchini family were later inducted into the Ringling Brothers Circus Hall of Fame.
# Siege of Coimbatore

The siege of Coimbatore was a siege conducted by forces of the Kingdom of Mysore against a garrison of British East India Company and Travancore troops holding the fortress at Coimbatore in southern India during the Third Anglo-Mysore War. The siege began in May 1791, and several men trying to storm the fort were repulsed on 11 June, after which the garrison of Lieutenant John Chalmers was reinforced, and a larger Mysorean force was brought against it. The garrison eventually surrendered on 2 November. Tipu Sultan broke the terms of the surrender, and held the garrison's commanding officers prisoner. John Chalmers was also held prisoner by Tipu Sultan and his forces. It is believed that around 100 British soldiers were executed in captivity by the Mysorean forces.

The French participating broadcaster, Radiodiffusion-Télévision Française (RTF), held a national final to select its entry. In addition, RTF was also the host broadcaster and staged the event at the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès in Cannes, after winning the previous edition with the song "Dors, mon amour" by André Claveau.

## Before Eurovision

The 1959 contest marked France's fourth appearance in the Eurovision Song Contest, having participated yearly since the first contest in 1956.

### Grand Prix de la chanson

Radiodiffusion-Télévision Française (RTF) used a format called Grand Prix de la chanson to determine its song. Semi-final broadcasts were aired on radio France II daily (except Sundays) between 5 and 19 January 1959.
The final was held on 28 January 1959 at 21:15 CET (20:15 UTC) and was broadcast on RTF as well as on France II and Radio Monte Carlo. It took the form of a special issue of the monthly program Le magazine de la chanson, produced by Emmanuel Robert, Pierre Brive [fr] and André Salvet [fr], and directed by Marcel Cravenne [fr]. Jacqueline Joubert, who also hosted the Eurovision Song Contest 1959, presented the show.
Eight songs took part in the final. The winning song was determined by a jury of listeners and viewers in nine different French cities.
The selected entrant Jean Philippe performed the French entry "Oui, oui, oui, oui" for television viewers one month later, during the following edition of Le magazine de la chanson, aired on 25 February at 21:20 CET.

## At Eurovision

RTF hosted the Eurovision Song Contest 1959 at the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès in Cannes, on 11 March 1958. Jean Philippe sang first on the night of the contest, preceding Denmark. At the close of the voting he had received 15 points, placing third of 11 countries.

### Voting

Each participating broadcaster assembled a ten-member jury panel. Every jury member could give one point to their favourite song.
Known members of the French jury were: Jean-Edouard Bloch (jury president), swimmer Aldo Eminente and writer Jean-François Josselin. The jury also included a former team leader at a water company, a singer, a jeweller, a painter, a dentist and an employee of the postal and telephone company PTT.
# Eterscél Mór

Eterscél Mór ("the great"), Son of Eogan MacAilella, Grandson of Ailill Anglonnach MacIar, great grandson of Íar mac Dedad, a descendant of Óengus Tuirmech Temrach, of the Érainn of Munster was, according to medieval Irish legend and historical tradition, a High King of Ireland. He succeeded Eochu Airem.
He features in the Middle Irish saga Togail Bruidne Dá Derga (the Destruction of Dá Derga's Hostel). He has no children, and it is prophesied that a woman of unknown race will bear him a son. He finds and forcibly marries the beautiful Mess Búachalla, daughter of Étaín and the former High King Eochu Feidlech (or, in Tochmarc Étaíne, his brother Eochu Airem and his daughter by Étaín), who, because of her incestuous conception, had been exposed but found and brought up by a herdsman and his wife. One night, in Eterscél's house, she is visited by an unknown man who flies in her skylight in the form of a bird, and she has his child, the future High King Conaire Mór, who is brought up as Eterscél's son.
Eterscél ruled for five or six years, at the end of which he was killed by Nuadu Necht in the battle of Aillenn. The Lebor Gabála Érenn synchronises his reign with that of the Roman emperor Augustus (27 BC – AD 14) and the birth of Christ, and makes him contemporary with legendary provincial kings Conchobar mac Nessa, Cairbre Nia Fer, Cú Roí and Ailill mac Máta. The chronology of Geoffrey Keating's Foras Feasa ar Éirinn dates his reign to 70–64 BC, that of the Annals of the Four Masters to 116–111 BC.

# Biggs Furniture

Biggs Furniture, based in Richmond, Virginia, United States, was once a leading U.S. manufacturer of colonial reproduction furniture. The company flourished in the 20th century, alongside reproductions by Colonial Williamsburg by the Kittinger Company, and other mass market reproduction brands like Ethan Allen and Pennsylvania House. In 1975, the company was purchased by the Kittinger Company.
The restored manufacturing plant at 900 West Marshall Street in Richmond is now an apartment complex. Examples of the furniture were in homes and in public buildings such as the Hotel John Marshall and Miller & Rhoads Tea Room.
The company was one of many Virginia furniture makers of the 20th century. Alfred Hemmings served as the final president of Biggs. Hemmings came to Biggs from Kittinger Furniture of Buffalo, NY. He left Biggs in the late 1970s to return to England, his country of birth, to serve as Managing Director of Brett&Sons in Norwich, East Anglia. He returned as president of Biggs Furniture in the early 1980s until the business shut its doors. During his tenure, Biggs provided furnishings for the White House and the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. He lived in Richmond in the West End with his wife, Doreen, and is survived by two daughters, Lynn Hemings of E. Amherst NY and Tracy H. Aitken, of Richmond, Va. sources: https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/buffalonews/name/alfred-hemmings-obituary?id=4692501
