# Sharon Christian

Sharon Christian (1950 – July 6, 2015; also known by her married name, Sharon Holmes) was a Canadian artist known for her paintings and sculptures, many of which document intimate encounters with nature.
Christian developed a unique style "beyond realism" through which she advanced a number of themes including the tension between urban and natural environments, and the relationships between contemporary art (including music), historical traditions, and individual experience. Christian documented the changing landscape and demographics of Western Canada.

## Early life

Christian was born in Alberta and was most active in Western Canada: in Calgary and West Vancouver. She studied at the University of Calgary and the Alberta College of Art.

## Career

Christian was elected into the Canadian Society for Painters in Water Colour in 1980, and showed regularly as a signature member in CSPWC shows. Three of Christian's pieces, acquired in 1977, 1984, and 1990, are included in the Alberta Foundation for the Arts: Summer Haze and A Time of Festivity (under her married name, Sharon Holmes), and Hitching up Barney and Big Boy.
Christian came to attention in the 1980s, with reviews by the art historian Brooks Joyner in the Calgary Herald and by Carol Fleming in the journal Arts West. Joyner wrote: "Holmes’ paintings deal with rural artifacts as they are overcome by nature. She feels the earth reclaims her own, the elements and the seasons gather and enfold these discards, making them beautiful as they take on a patina of green, russet and gold.’ The art movement New Sincerity, dating to the early 1980s, was similarly concerned with breaking away from post-modern irony and cynicism. The artist was represented by the Masters Gallery and the Wallace Galleries, in Calgary. Under the name Holmes, the artist illustrated the book "Early prairie remedies" (the book was printed in two editions; the second reprinting was titled "The Pioneer Remedies").
Christian's 1992 exhibition at the Ferry Building Art Gallery in West Vancouver was the focus of a full episode of the nationally televised program Much West/Much Music, hosted by Terry David Mulligan. The last public exhibition during her lifetime was reviewed by Michela Garstin in 2013.
Christian was selected by Maureen McTeer, the wife of the Canadian Prime Minister, to be part of a group of artists to promote Canadian art, reported by the Zena Cherry, the society columnist for The Globe and Mail. The artist's work was collected by Norma Gibson for the Corporate Collection of Gulf Canada Resources.

## Death

Christian died of cancer on July 6, 2015.

# Volunteer Defence Corps (Australia)

The Volunteer Defence Corps (VDC) was an Australian part-time volunteer military force of World War II modelled on the British Home Guard.

## History

The VDC was established in July 1940 by the Returned and Services League of Australia (RSL) and was initially composed of ex-servicemen who had served in World War I. The government took over control of the VDC in May 1941, and gave the organisation the role of training for guerrilla warfare, collecting local intelligence and providing static defence of each unit's home area. General Harry Chauvel, who had retired in 1930, was recalled to duty in 1940 and appointed Inspector-General of the VDC. Chauvel held this position until his death in March 1945.
Following the outbreak of the Pacific War, the Government expanded the VDC in February 1942. Membership was open to men aged between 18 and 60, including those working in reserved occupations. As a result, there were, by 1944, nearly 100,000 men in the VDC, organized into 111 battalions consisting of about 1,500 full-time personnel, over 30,000 part-time active members and over 43,000 part-time reserve members of the Volunteer Defence Corps.
As the perceived threat to Australia declined the VDC's role changed from static defence to operating anti-aircraft artillery, coastal artillery and searchlights. Members of inland VDC units were freed from having to attend regular training in May 1944 and the VDC was officially disbanded on 24 August 1945.

# Kiilhsoohkwa

Kiilh-sooh-kwa (var. Kiilhsoohkwa, Kil-so-quah, Kilsoquah, Margaret Revarre) was a member of the Myaamia Nation and granddaughter of Myaamia Chief Mihšihkinaahkwa (var. Little Turtle). She was born in about 1810 and died in 1915. She was one of the few Myaamia who was not removed from Indiana in 1846.

## Early life

Kiilh-sooh-kwa was born in 1810 in an area she described in an interview in 1906 as near present-day Markle, Huntington County in northeast Indiana. Separate sources suggest she was born at the Forks of the Wabash, closer to present-day Huntington, Huntington County, Indiana. She was the granddaughter of Myaamia Chief Mihšihkinaahkwa (var. Little Turtle). Her father, Wok-shin-gah (var. Crescent Moon) was Mihšihkinaahkwa's son. Her mother was Nah-wah-kah-mo-kwa (var. Snow Woman).
Her first husband was John Owl, the son of Chief John Owl. In 1826, the pair wed in an area referred to as Seek's Village around the Eel River. John died within the first year or two of their marriage. In 1832, Kiilh-sooh-kwa wed Shaw-pe-nom-quah (var. Anthony Revarre), who was of half Native American, half French descent trader. Together Kiilh-sooh-kwa and Shaw-pe-nom-quah had six children, four of whom died in infancy. Her two surviving children were a son, Wa-pe-mung-quah (var. Little White Loon, Anthony Revarre, Jr.), and a daughter, Wan-nog-quan-quah (var. Snow, Mist, or Fog; Blowing Snow; Happy Fawn; Mary E. Johnson).

## Later life

Little is documented of her young adult life, though in 2013 she was described by the Smithsonian Institution as an important midwife in Indiana who understood and used plant knowledge related to childbirth. In her later years, she lived in Roanoke, Indiana, on forty acres of what remained of her family's and her nation's territory. She only spoke in her native language. Some sources suggesting that she understood some English. One of the few English words that she knew and used frequently was "rheumatism," given her affliction with the disease. She was described in 1905 as "a big woman, of swarthy appearance, and...a devotee of the pipe, which she has with her almost incessantly" and, separately, was described as a devout Catholic.
In 1915 a Fort Wayne-based newspaper said "if a stranger called, the old woman would grasp the hand and give a firm grip, and after looking you over would in her quaint way and feeble voice mutter a few words in her native tongue, that if interpreted would be a hearty welcome." An estimated 15,000 attendees celebrated her 100th birthday in Roanoke and her centennial was well-documented in Indiana newspapers.
She died on 4 September 1915 at her home in Roanoke after spending a few weeks ill and confined to her bed. Her death was described as "without a struggle, for death was only a break in the well worn thread of life." Her death was described in 1917 as a loss of "the last royal Miamis and the oldest resident of the State of Indiana, who had enjoyed a national reputation." Her funeral services were held at St. Joseph Catholic Church in Roanoke and she was buried in the I.O.O.F. Cemetery (Glenwood Cemetery) in Roanoke.

# Anthony O'Grady Lefroy

Anthony O'Grady Lefroy CMG (14 March 1816 – 21 January 1897), often known as O'Grady Lefroy, was an important government official in Western Australia before the advent of responsible government.
O'Grady Lefroy was born at Limerick, Ireland on 14 March 1816. He was the nephew of Thomas Langlois Lefroy (Chief Justice of Ireland and Jane Austen's youthful love). In 1842, at the age of 27, he migrated to Western Australia on board the Lady Grey. In 1847, Lefroy and his brother Gerald accompanied Alfred Durlacher in exploring the area that later became known as Gingin. Shortly afterwards, he purchased land at Walebing, where he was a pastoralist until retiring in favour of his son in 1873.
Lefroy was private secretary to Governor Charles Fitzgerald from 1843 probably until 1853, and again from 1854 to 1855. In 1851 he was Clerk to the Executive and Legislative Councils. In 1856, Lefroy was appointed Colonial Treasurer, and he would hold that position for over 30 years, until the advent of responsible government in December 1890. He did, however, spend portions of this period in England: he was in England in 1858, 1863–65, and 1868–71.
When Colonial Secretary of Western Australia Frederick Barlee took long service leave in July 1875, Lefroy was appointed acting Colonial Secretary. In December of that year he was appointed a member of the Western Australian Legislative Council. The following year he became a Justice of the Peace. When Barlee was posted to the British Honduras early in 1877, Roger Goldsworthy was appointed the new Colonial Secretary; Lefroy ceased to be acting Colonial Secretary and a member of the Legislative Council on 30 August 1877. The following year, he was made CMG.
O'Grady Lefroy's 30-year tenure as Colonial Treasurer ended on 29 December 1890 when John Forrest, Western Australia's first Premier, was sworn into the position. Lefroy retired to Perth, dying there on 21 January 1897. He was survived by his wife of 44 years Mary Bruce, and five children. One of his sons was Henry Lefroy, who would later become the 11th Premier of Western Australia.
# Khider Kosari

Khider Mohammad Rasheed, better known as Khider Kosari (Kurdish: خدر کۆساری; 1969–1993) was a Kurdish Islamist rebel and poet.

## Early life

Kosari was born in 1969 in Ranya, Kurdistan Region and was not nationalistic or religious during his upbringing, but during the Iran–Iraq War he was recruited by Ali Bapir's faction of the Kurdistan Islamic Movement, which was affiliated with the larger Kurdish mujahideen movement, to fight against Saddam Hussein, and he turned into a Kurdish nationalist and radical Muslim, where he later became known as their poet. He got married in 1986 and had a daughter and a son. In late 1987, he wrote his first poem called "Nigari Khudan", and he used poetry to recruit people. He played a major role in the 1991 Iraqi uprisings, and he read his poems from the loudspeaker of the Great Mosque of Ranya. He recorded videos of his poetry in Sorani Kurdish, most of the time on mountains during the war, which the videos can be found online.

## Assassination

On, December 27 1993, 2 years after the 1991 Iraqi uprisings, Kosari was assassinated by the PUK after their crackdown on the Kurdistan Islamic Movement's leadership. Kosari and two friends, including Ali Bapir's brother Wahid Bapir, fled to a nearby village in the mountains. After a day spent hiding in a villager's house, Wahid and Kosari chose to leave. Shortly after leaving the village, Kosari changed his mind and returned by himself. As PUK-Peshmerga entered the house where he was hiding during a raid, he attempted to escape, but was shot. The PUK Peshmerga soldiers found him bleeding on the ground but still alive, they fired a kill shot and left, but Kosari still survived. After hearing about the raid, Wahid Bapir returned to check on him. On his deathbed, Kosari begged Wahid, "Bring the recorder, I have more poems left in my chest." The next day, the villager who helped hide Kosari loaded his dead body in a tractor to be returned to his family in Ranya. His family buried him that same day, in the mountains, where they held an Islamic funeral for him.
