# Robert Verdin

Robert Verdin (8 March 1836 – 25 July 1887) was a salt manufacturer, philanthropist and the Liberal Unionist Member of Parliament (MP) for Northwich from 1 July 1886 to 25 July 1887.

## Biography

Robert Verdin and his brothers, Joseph and William ran a family salt business known as Joseph Verdin & Sons (formerly Joseph and Richard Verdin), co-founded by their father, Joseph and his brother, Richard. They owned six salt plants in various locations throughout Cheshire, including Marston, Witton, Moulton, Over, Wharton and Middlewich. They employed over 1,000 people and produced approximately 353,000 tons of salt annually; it was the largest salt manufacturer in the United Kingdom by 1881.
Verdin was appointed a justice of the peace. In 1885, he stood against John Brunner for the Liberal Party nomination in the newly created parliamentary constituency of Northwich. Brunner won the nomination and successfully contested the seat against the Conservative candidate, William Henry Verdin, Robert's brother. However, in the following year Gladstone's Liberal government was defeated over Home Rule for Ireland and an election was called. The Liberal party being split, Brunner – loyal to Gladstone – stood against Verdin, a Liberal Unionist. Verdin won the seat, but died a year later. Brunner won the subsequent by-election.
As a philanthropist, Verdin gave the Victoria Infirmary, the Verdin Baths and Verdin Park to Northwich but died before they opened. A statue in his memory was erected in Verdin Park by public subscription.
He died, aged 51, on 25 July 1887 at his home, The Brockhurst, a Regency house in spacious grounds at Leftwich where he lived with his brother Joseph and sister Mary. He never married.

# Robert T. Henry

Robert T. Henry (November 27, 1923 – December 3, 1944) was a United States Army soldier and a recipient of the United States military's highest decoration—the Medal of Honor—for his actions in World War II.

## Biography

Henry joined the Army from his birthplace of Greenville, Mississippi in April 1943, and by December 3, 1944, was serving as a private in the 16th Infantry Regiment, 1st Infantry Division. On that day, at Luchem, Germany, he single-handedly charged a German machine gun nest which was preventing the advance of his platoon. Although he was killed before reaching the nest, his attack provided a distraction which enabled his comrades to destroy the position. For this action, he was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor six months later, on June 12, 1945.
Henry, aged 21 at his death, was buried at Greenville Cemetery in his hometown of Greenville, Mississippi. The Henry Kaserne in Munich was named in his honor.

## Medal of Honor citation

Private Henry's Medal of Honor citation reads:
   Near Luchem, Germany, he volunteered to attempt the destruction of a nest of 5 enemy machineguns located in a bunker 150 yards to the flank which had stopped the advance of his platoon. Stripping off his pack, overshoes, helmet, and overcoat, he sprinted alone with his rifle and hand grenades across the open terrain toward the enemy emplacement. Before he had gone half the distance he was hit by a burst of machinegun fire. Dropping his rifle, he continued to stagger forward until he fell mortally wounded only 10 yards from the enemy emplacement. His single-handed attack forced the enemy to leave the machineguns. During this break in hostile fire the platoon moved forward and overran the position. Pvt. Henry, by his gallantry and intrepidity and utter disregard for his own life, enabled his company to reach its objective, capturing this key defense and 70 German prisoners.

# Roccellinastrum lagarostrobi

Roccellinastrum lagarostrobi is a rare species of byssoid (wispy) lichen in the family Byssolomataceae. Found in Australia, it was formally described as a new species in 1990 by lichenologist Gintaras Kantvilas. The type specimen was collected from Pine Creek, north of Greystone bluff (Tasmania) at an altitude of 140 m (460 ft); here, along the bank of a stream, at the edge of a rainforest, the lichen was found growing as an epiphyte on leafy twigs of the endemic conifer Lagarostrobos franklinii. It has a white, cottony (byssoid) thallus that forms irregularly shaped tufts typically measuring 2–4 mm wide. The lichen produces the chemical protocetraric acid. The species epithet lagarostrobi refers to the genus of the phorophyte. It is only known to occur at a few locations in Tasmania; its diminutive size and somewhat inconspicuous appearance makes it easy to miss.
# Roccella galapagoensis

Roccella galapagoensis is a species of fruticose lichen in the family Roccellaceae. It is endemic to the Galápagos Islands.

## Taxonomy

First described by the German lichenologist Gerhard Follmann in 1968, Roccella galapagoensis was discovered in abundance on the Galapagos Islands' South Plaza Island, particularly on the island's highest points. The official type specimen is held at the University of Colorado Museum, Boulder. Over the years, the species has been linked with several other names, including Roccella obscurissima, Roccella geniculata, Roccella glebaria, and Roccella colonii, based on specimens found in various locales across the Galapagos.

## Description

This lichen species has a cylindrical thallus structure, with main branches usually measuring between 5 and 20 cm (2 and 8 in) in length. Its secondary branches are typically partially compressed but not markedly flattened. The thallus colour ranges from brownish-grey to grey. Ascomata, the fruiting bodies of the lichen, are present and have circular outlines with occasional undulating margins. Roccella lirellina, previously thought to form a species pair with Roccella galapagoensis, has been shown to have a distinct monophyletic genotype.

## Distribution

Its distribution in the Galapagos Archipelago includes Española, Floreana, Genovesa, Isabela, Santa Cruz, Santa Cruz, Santa Cruz, Santa Fé, and Santiago Islands.

# Plain of Torvioll

The Plain of Torvioll, now named the Plain of Shumbat, is located in the Lower Dibra region in eastern Albania, north of Peshkopi. It is most famous for being the battlefield for Skanderbeg's first battle against the Ottoman Empire in the Battle of Torvioll which took place on 29 June 1444. According to a defter gathered by the Ottomans in 1467, the region of Lower Dibra included the northern half of Dibran territory.
The plain, according to Giammaria Biemmi's work, one of the primary sources on Skanderbeg and his campaigns, was 7 miles (11 km) long and 3 miles (4.8 km) wide, stretching from Mount Maran in Lower Dibra to the Mokra Mountains. He also says that it is closed by a series of hills at whose feet runs the Shkumbin River and two heavily-wooded mountains where Skanderbeg hid his ambushing force. However, the Shkumbin River does not run through Lower Dibra. Instead, the Black Drin does. Kristo Frashëri, an eminent historian on the study of Skanderbeg, states that Biemmi lapsed, confusing the Black Drin with the Shkumbin. Furthermore, the Black Drin matches all of the geographical features described by Biemmi, as does the modern-day Plain of Shumbat.
Biemmi furthermore states that the plain derived its name from a nearby village. It is not certain whether this village actually existed, but it is assumed that Torvioll lends its etymology to the word tevioll in the Dibër dialect meaning land without a lord, noting that it did not have any owners and any shepherd could feed his livestock there. It is therefore possible that the battle was originally named after Tevioll and was corrupted to Torvioll.
