# Bernard IV, Margrave of Baden-Durlach

Bernard IV, Margrave of Baden-Durlach (born 1517 – died 20 January 1553) was Margrave of Baden-Pforzheim from 26 September 1552 until his death.

## Life

Bernhard was the second son from the first marriage of Margrave Ernest of Baden-Profzheim with Elisabeth of Brandenburg-Ansbach-Kulmbach.
Like his older brother Albert, Bernard has been attributed a dissolute life, and been described as a wild creature. His bad reputation halted negotiations between his father and the Duke of Cleves, brother of the fourth wife of King Henry VIII of England, Anne of Cleves, for him to marry the Duke's other sister Amelia. In 1537, he opposed the proposed division of his father's territory among his father's sons, and in particular against the rights of his half-brother Charles II, arguing that his father's second marriage had been morganatic. After his brother Albert died in 1542, his father forgave him his earlier opposition and promised him he would inherit Lower Baden.
In 1540 he acquired the citizenship of the city Basel. He also owed a debt to the city.
He ruled Lower Baden, with the cities of Pforzheim and Durlach from 26 September 1552 until his death, while his half-brother Charles II ruled Upper Baden. However, his rule lasted only a few months, as he died unexpectedly on 20 January 1553. He was buried in the Collegiate Church in Pforzheim.

# Bertha George Harris

Bertha George Harris (June 29, 1913 – October 14, 2014) was an American Catawba tribal elder and master potter. She specialized in a specific type of pottery unique to the Catawba, which she crafted from river clay without the use of electricity or a potter's wheel. Harris was the oldest living member of the Catawba tribe at the time of her death in October 2014. The Catawba number approximately 2,800 people, presently based in York County, South Carolina, as well the surrounding region.

## Life

Harris was born Bertha George on June 29, 1913, in Lancaster County, South Carolina, to Moroni James George and Hattie Milling George. She lived in neighboring Catawba County and York Counties for the majority of her life. A resident of Rock Hill, South Carolina, she was raised under racial segregation in the American South, in which the Catawba and other Native American groups were considered inferior to whites. She was married to George Furman Harris for 75 years, until his death in 2006 at the age of 95. The couple had seven children.
Harris created Catawba pottery and was considered one of the Catawba's master potters. Catawba pottery is composed of river clay, which is shaped without the use of a potter's wheel. According to members of the Catawba, she considered it an honor to be the oldest living elder.
Bertha George Harris died on October 14, 2014, at the age of 101, as the oldest member of the Catawba. Her funeral was held at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on the Catawba Indian Nation reservation. Gilbert Blue, the former Chief of the Catawba from 1977 to 2007, was raised with Harris' children. He paid tribute to Harris telling a reporter, "I spoke with her about her position as the oldest several times, and she held that to be important... Bertha Harris recognized what her status as the oldest meant, and not only did it make her feel something good and important, it made all of us feel good." Present Catawba Chief Bill Harris, her great-nephew, also paid tribute to her noting, "Of the Catawba people, of the people who have been here on this patch of ground for all these centuries, she was the oldest among us... That is truly a remarkable idea–that a person was the oldest of all of us on the entire earth. That was always for her and all of us a great, even sacred, honor." She was survived by five of her seven children: three daughters and two sons.
Frances Wade, who was 92 years old in October 2014, became the oldest Catawba elder following Harris' death.

# Berthold Lasker

Berthold Lasker (also, per birth registry Jonathan Berthold Barnett Lasker) (31 December 1860 – 19 October 1928) was a German physician, writer and chess master.

## Life

Berthold Lasker was born Jonathan Berthold Lasker in Berlinchen (Barlinek, now West Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland). He was the son of a Jewish cantor and grandson of a well regarded Rabbi. He had a brother who was 8 years younger, the later World Chess Champion Emanuel Lasker. He attended the Friedrichwerdersches Gymnasium in Berlin and graduated in 1879 with the Abitur. From 1881 until 1888 he studied medicine at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. During this time he shared his flat with his brother Emanuel whom he drew into playing chess and the chess scene.
For about a year Lasker practised as a physician in Elberfeld, where he met the poet and playwright Else Lasker-Schüler. After they married in 1894, they lived in Berlin, where he practised as a specialist for skin diseases. The relationship with his wife was unhappy. In 1899, they had a son, the paternity of which his wife denied him in court, which the district court found credible. Lasker-Schüler accused her husband of violence, and in 1903 they were divorced.
At the beginning of the century, Lasker went to the U.S. for a longer period of time. He attempted to open a second office in New York City, without success.

### Chess

After his stint in the U.S., Lasker permanently lived in Berlin. He played in local chess tournaments in Berlin. In the 1880s Lasker was, next to Curt von Bardeleben, Siegbert Tarrasch who studied in Berlin, Fritz Riemann, Emil Schallopp and Theodor von Scheve, one of the strongest chess players in Berlin and therefore in Germany.
In 1881, he shared 1st with Siegbert Tarrasch, and took 2nd, behind Curt von Bardeleben, there. In 1883, he tied for 1st-4th and took 4th (playoff) - Hermann von Gottschall won. In 1887, he tied for 5-6th (Max Harmonist won). Tarrasch called Lasker a "very genius player, whose strength rarely accorded due value in a tournament because of his nervousness.“.
His best achievement was a tie for 1st place with his brother, Emanuel Lasker, at Berlin 1890. He took 2nd, behind Horatio Caro, at Berlin 1891. In June 1891, Lasker achieved his highest Elo rating of 2683. He took 10th at Berlin 1898/99 (Theodor von Scheve, Emil Schallopp and Caro won).
In 1902, Lasker won the New York State championship.

### Personal life, death

Together with his brother Emanuel, he wrote a drama called "Days of Mankind" in 1925. It contained deep philosophical symbolism, and the theme was "redemption for rationalists and rigid logic truth through the emotional powers of mysticism."
Lasker died in 1928 only a few months after the death of his second wife, Regina, and is buried in the Jewish cemetery in Berlin-Weissensee. The Hebrew inscription on his gravestone has been translated as: "May his soul be integrated into the bond of life".

# Bettie Freshwater Pool

Bettie Freshwater Pool (December 23, 1860 – May 12, 1928) was an American writer, poet, songwriter, and schoolteacher who spent her life in Pasquotank County, North Carolina.

## Life

Bettie Freshwater Pool was born on December 23, 1860 at the Pool family plantation near Elizabeth City, North Carolina. She was one of nine children of George Decatur Pool, brother of US Senator John Pool and Solomon Pool, and Elizabeth Fletcher Pool. Her brother was US Congressman Walter Freshwater Pool. While still an infant, she was dropped by a nurse and sustained a spinal injury from which prevented her from attending school outside her home.
Known as a storyteller from her youth within her family, Pool went on to publish four books. The first was a collection of prose and poetry called The Eyrie and Other Southern Stories (1905). It included an account of how her uncle, Dr. William Gaskins Pool, discovered a portrait in 1869 in Nags Head, North Carolina. The "Nag's Head Portrait" is purported to be a portrait of Theodosia Burr Alston, daughter of U.S. Vice President Aaron Burr, whose ship disappeared at sea in 1813. The second was a novel, Under Brazilian Skies (1908), possibly inspired by a relative's trip to Brazil in 1899. Her best known work was Literature in the Albemarle (1915), an anthology of writing from the Albemarle region of North Carolina. A number of the writers included in the work are her relatives, including her brothers Walter Pool and Charles Carroll Pool and several uncles and cousins. Her final book was America's Battle Cry and Other New War Songs Set to Old Familiar Tunes (1918), a collection of songs, with much of the music written by her cousin Lilla Pool Price.
One of her songs, "Carolina, A Song", was published in the North Carolina Booklet in 1909. The same year, a bill was introduced in the North Carolina State Senate to make her work the official state song, though the proposal was not adopted.
Pool supported herself and her sister Patty by opening a school in her home on Dyer Street in Elizabeth City. She died there on May 12, 1928.

# Bijago art

Bijago art or Bidyogo art is African tribal art produced by the natives of the Bijagos Islands of Guinea-Bissau. It includes many artifacts for daily use and ritual practices, following a traditional iconography that is unique to their culture, but shows variations from island to island. Such art pieces are known as Bidyogo art and their unique aesthetics make Bidyogo art distinctive from all other African art with the exception of the nearby Baga people who share some of the iconography (and are considered a "related tribe" by Bacquart)."

## Shrine pieces

Among the most striking Bidyogo art pieces are the portable ancestor shrines ("iran") that can either be realistic or abstract.

## Zoomorphic masks for coming-of-age rituals

Zoomorphic masks representing cows ("vaca-bruta"), sharks, stingrays and, occasionally, other local animals are worn in adult initiation rituals ("fanado") mostly by boys, but occasionally by women.

## Other ritual paraphernalia

Traditionally-decorated artifacts are also produced for "fanado" coming-of-age ceremonies (wood masks, spears, shields, headgear, bracelets). Girls are also given stylized dolls to learn about child-caring.

## Daily use objects

The Bissagos produce unique objects for daily activities (fishing, agriculture) and personal use (stools, basketry, foodware) and boats.

## Architecture

While most Bidyogo hut dwellings show no remarkable artistry, some have their walls painted in bright colors with traditional symbols and patterns. Occasionally, doors are also painted with human or animal figures.

## Pieces for the tourist trade

Some of the village artists carve for ritual use as well as for the tourist trade, which can thus enable visitors to acquire ethnographically interesting pieces.

# Bill Hazlett

William Edgar Hazlett (8 November 1905 – 13 April 1978) was a New Zealand rugby union player, farmer, racehorse owner and breeder.

## Early life and family

Born in Invercargill, New Zealand on 8 November 1905, Hazlett was the son of Kate Hazlett (née Stephenson), whose father John Stephenson was one of the founders of Wright Stephenson, and William Thomas Hazlett, a merchant and landholder. He was educated at Waitaki Boys' High School. He married Joan Marion Nicoll at Ashburton on 4 November 1931. The couple went on to have three children.

## Rugby union

A loose forward, Hazlett represented Southland at a provincial level, and was a member of the New Zealand national side, the All Blacks, from 1926 to 1930. He played 26 matches for the All Blacks including eight internationals.

## Horse racing

Hazlett was involved in horse racing from an early age, and in later years was far better known through this part of his life than for his rugby exploits. Amongst New Zealand's leading owners for many years, and topping the table six times, he became the first (and so far only) New Zealander to win more than 1,000 races as an owner. He trained many of these himself, being good enough in that field to be twice runner-up in the national trainers' premiership, before relinquishing the reins to Bill Hillis, his private trainer from 1959. Although he won all of New Zealand's top jumping races, his most notable feat was winning the iconic Great Western Steeplechase at Riverton no fewer than 16 times. He also trained the first seven of these winners.
