# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Sojourner Truth

Edition of 1900.
# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Snyder, Christopher

Edition of 1900.
​SNYDER, Christopher, called “the first martyr of the Revolution,” b. about 1755; d. in Boston, Mass., 23 Feb., 1770. During the excitement in 1770 on the subject of non-importation a few merchants continued to sell articles that had been proscribed, and one, Theophilus Lillie, incurred such displeasure that, in order to mark his shop as one to be shunned, a mob, consisting chiefly of half-grown boys, erected near his door a wooden head on a tall pole, upon which were written the names of the other importers, and a hand pointing to Lillie's shop was also attached. One of his friends, Ebenezer Richardson, attempted to remove this figure, but was pelted and driven into Lillie's house by the mob. Greatly exasperated, he appeared with a musket and fired a random shot into the crowd, which mortally wounded a young lad, Christopher Snyder, the son of a poor widow. Snyder died on that evening, and his murder produced a sensation throughout the country. His funeral, on the 26th, was the occasion of a solemn pageant. A procession of 500 children walked before the bier, and the coffin was taken to Liberty tree, where an assemblage of nearly 1,500 persons had gathered. The bells of the city and of neighboring towns were tolled. The newspapers were filled with accounts of the story and of the funeral, and Christopher Snyder was called the first martyr in the cause of American liberty. The mob seized Richardson and an associate named Wilmot and took them to Faneuil hall, where they were examined and committed for trial. Richardson was declared guilty of murder, but Lieut.-Gov. Thomas Hutchinson refused to sign his death-warrant, and after two years' imprisonment he was pardoned by the king.
# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Snyder, Simon (soldier)

Edition of 1900. Supplement.
SNYDER, Simon, soldier, b. 9 Feb., 1839, in the stone house which his grandfather, Simon Snyder (q. v.), built while he was governor in Selin's Grove, Pa. He enlisted in the civil war, but before he was mustered in a commission arrived for him. Simon Cameron was a warm friend of Henry W. Snyder, the governor's oldest son, and secured the commission. He was not actively engaged in the civil war, but saw a great deal of Indian warfare; was home on leave in 1876, but hurried to the frontier, and his command built Fort Keogh, from which they set out on several campaigns. He was afterward brevetted major for gallant services against the Indians at Bear Paw mountain in 1877, and was in all the battles with Sitting Bull, and was present when he surrendered. He was appointed 2d lieutenant, 5th infantry, April, 1861; 1st lieutenant, June, 1861; captain, June, 1863; major, 11th infantry, March, 1883; 5th infantry, May, 1883; lieutenant-colonel, 10th infantry, January, 1888; colonel, 19th infantry, September, 1892. He was appointed brigadier-general of U. S. volunteers, May, 1898, and commanded various divisions in the volunteer army at several points in the southern states from May to November, 1898; commanded the 1st brigade, 1st division, 1st army-corps en route to the province of Santa Clara, Cuba, November, 1898, to January, 1899. Gen. Snyder was mustered out of the volunteer service in May, 1899, and proceeded with his regiment to the Philippines. Soon after his arrival in September he was conspicuous in an engagement near Cebu.
# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Soissons, Charles de Bourbon, Count de

Edition of 1900.
​SOISSONS, Charles de Bourbon, Count de, viceroy of New France, b. in France in 1565; d. there, 1 Nov., 1612. The death of Henry IV. weakened Champlain's chances of successfully colonizing New France, and, by the advice of De Monts, he sought a protector in the person of the Count de Soissons, who accepted the proposal to become the “father of New France,” obtained from the queen regent the authority necessary to preserve and advance all that had been already done, and appointed Champlain his lieutenant with unrestricted power. In his commission to Champlain he styles himself “lieutenant-general of New France,” but he died soon after issuing it.
# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Snow, Lorenzo

Edition of 1900. Supplement.
SNOW, Lorenzo, Mormon official, b. in Mantua, Portage co., Ohio, 8 April, 1814 He studied in the schools of Ravenna and at Oberlin college. He left the latter in 1836, intending to enter an eastern institution, but on a visit at Kirtland he met Joseph Smith, became a convert to Mormonism, and gave up his former plans. In 1837 he began his work as a missionary, but accompanied the church on his journey to Illinois. In 1840 he was sent as a missionary to Great Britain, where he became councillor to Parley P. Pratt, president of the British mission; he held the same position with the successor of the latter. On his return to America he organized the military company known as the Nauvoo legion, of which he was elected captain. He took charge also of the Nauvoo school. His campaign for the election of Smith to the U. S. presidency was cut short by the murder of the latter; he was prominent in the search for a western refuge for the people, but did not reach Salt Lake City until 1848. In 1852 he was elected a member of the Utah house of representatives and was returned either to the house or to the council at every election until 1882. He founded and named Brigham City, Utah, in 1855, and there organised a successful system of co-operation. A trip to Italy called him away in
1849, to the Sandwich islands in 1864, and in 1872 he made a tour of Europe and Palestine. His active interest in educational affairs continued unabated. He was ordained one of the twelve apostles on 12 Feb., 1849, was chosen president of the twelve in April, 1889, president of the temple when it was opened, 23 May, 1893, and president of the Mormon church, 13 Sept., 1898, to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Wilford Woodruff. Among his publications are “The Italian Mission” (London, 1851); “The Only Way to be Saved” (London, 1851), which has passed through several editions and has been translated into many European tongues; “The Voice of Joseph” (Liverpool, 1852), an account of the Mormons; a translation of the “Book of Mormon” into Italian; and “The Palestine Tourists” (1874), an account, in collaboration with his sister, of his journey in Europe and the Holy Land made in 1872.
# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Snowden, James Ross

Edition of 1900.
​SNOWDEN, James Ross, numismatist, b. in Old Chester, Pa., 9 Dec., 1809; d. in Hulmeville, Bucks co., Pa., 21 March, 1878. His great-grandfather, Nathanael Fitz Randolph, served in the Revolutionary war, being known as “Fighting Nat,” and was presented with a sword by the legislature of New Jersey. He also started the first subscription paper for Princeton college, and gave the ground upon which Nassau hall, the first edifice of that college, was built. This received its name in honor of William III., of the “illustrious house of Nassau.” It has been twice burned down. His father, Rev. Nathanael Randolph Snowden, was curator of Dickinson college from 1794 till 1827, where the son was educated. Subsequently he studied law, and, settling in Franklin, Pa., was ​made deputy attorney-general, elected to the legislature, and served as speaker in 1842-'4. He was state treasurer from 1845 till 1847, treasurer of the U.S. mint from 1847 till 1S50, and its director from 1853 till 1801. In addition to numerous addresses and pamphlets on numismatics and curcency, seven annual mint reports, and contributions to journals, he published “Descriptions of Coin in the U. S. Mint” (Philadelphia, 1860); “Description of the Medals of Washington, of National and Miscellaneous Medals, and of other Objects of Interest in the Museum of the Mint, with Biographical Notices of the Directors from 1792 to 1851” (1861); “The Mint at Philadelphia” (1861); “The Coins of the Bible, and its Money Terms” (1864); and “The Cornplanter Memorial” (Harrisburg, 1867); and contributed articles on the coin of the United States to the National almanac of 1873, and articles on numismatics to Bouvier's “Law Dictionary” (12th ed., Philadelphia, 1868).—His nephew, Archibald Loudon, b. in Cumberland county, Pa., 11 Aug., 1837, after graduation at Jefferson college in 1856 was made register of the U. S. mint on 7 May, 1857, became chief coiner on 1 Oct., 1866, and in 1877-'9 was postmaster of Philadelphia. In 1879-'85 he was superintendent of the mint, and in 1878 he declined the office of general director of all the mints in the United States. He has made improvements and inventions relating to coining-machinery, and has written articles on subjects relating to coinage, the great seal of the United States, and other subjects. Mr. Snowden was commissioned lieutenant-colonel of Pennsylvania volunteers in 1861, and was subsequently elected captain of the 1st city troop of Philadelphia, which is the oldest military organization in the United States. It was the bodyguard of Gen. Washington during the Revolution, and bore a conspicuous part in the battles of Trenton, Princeton, and the Brandywine. He has been identified with railroads, insurance companies, and other business interests.

​SNYDER, Simon, governor of Pennsylvania, b. in Lancaster, Pa., 5 Nov., 1759; d. near Selinsgrove, Pa., 9 Nov., 1819. His father, Anthony, a mechanic, emigrated to Pennsylvania in 1758. After his death in 1774 the son apprenticed himself to a tanner in York, Pa., and employed his leisure in study. In 1784 he removed to Selinsgrove, opened a store, became the owner of a mill, and was justice of the peace for twelve years. He was a member of the convention that framed the constitution of 1790, and in 1797 was elected a member of the house of representatives, of which he was chosen speaker in 1802, serving in this capacity for six successive terms. With him originated the “hundred-dollar act,” which embodied the arbitration principle and provided for the trial of causes where the amount in question was less than one hundred dollars. In 1808 he was made governor of Pennsylvania and served three, terms. Upon his retirement in 1817 he was elected to the state senate, and died while a member of that body. Snyder county, Pa., was named for him.

He is the sixth lineal descendant through oldest sons of oldest sons of King John Sobieski, of Poland, the hero who became Christianity's champion when the Turks were at the gates of Vienna. Count Sobieski, who led the Polish revolt of 1846, and died upon the scaffold, left a widow and a son, who went to Genoa, thence to London, where the countess died. The son came to this country in 1854, entered the Union army, and fought through the four years of the civil war, being honorably discharged in 1865, when he accepted a colonel's commission in the Mexican army. Later he settled in Missouri, where he practised law, and in recent years has become well known as a platform lecturer. Col.

# Blackwood's Magazine/Volume 1/Issue 2/Lines written in Spring 1812

Lines Written in Spring—1812.
Redeemed from Winter's deadening reign, The joyful year revives again; And flings, with rule-rejecting mirth, Her gladdening glories o'er the earth. Through her full veins the transports run, And hark! the woodland hymn's begun— From the close-foliaged grove the thrill Comes softened up the breezy hill, With ceaseless bleat, and frequent low, And mountain-rivulets' dashing flow, And all the stir and din below.
—The blent, but soon selected, call Of man, who loves and blesses all, With kingly accent, sweet though high, Completes the full-toned harmony. Its thorns are in my breast—yet still I love this Earth with all its ill! Though lone and heartless in the strife, I dread the long fatigue of life— And none to whom 'twere sweet to say, "These heavens how bright! this earth how gay!" With meeting soul and kindred mood Endear the charms of solitude— Though every hour has on its wing A sadder tear, a sharper sting— And balm and blessing were in vain— This friendless heart was formed for pain.
# Blackwood's Magazine/Volume 1/Issue 2/Greece

GREECE.
From the French of Ardans.
(Almanack des Muses, pour 1815.)
1.
The minstrel seeks Illissus' shore; Like them inspired with holy rage That Greece, erewhile so great and sage, Greece, lovely still—his footsteps tread; And, O!—though cold and silent now, He feels that land still strong to bow The pilgrim's heart with reverential dread!
2.
Whose deeds of fame that may not die, Bade rise upon their native shore The home of holy Liberty?— O! rouse Ye at my voice of pain! O! rise and look on Græcia now! Reft of the gifts Ye gave—in vain, The servile neck behold her bow, And hug, with trembling hand, the chain The Tartar binds around her brow!
3.
Greece to my pensive eye appears —A widow desolate, with quenchless tears Weeping her gods and all her heroes gone! Alas! o'er all this lovely clime— In heart and soul by slavery wrung, The dastard sons of sires sublime Scarce know the land whereon they sprung; And feel—of all its glories gone, Or weak regret—or memory none!
4.
And all that fired, and blessed, and bloomed, Survive but in her ashes now! And only strangers sorrow there O'er ills—the deadliest—lands must bear Where tyrants reign and bondsmen bow! Yes! on these plains—of yore so blest,— Where sleep in death's unbroken rest The hearts with Sparta's king that bled,— Their rankling chains a race of slaves Drag o'er a thousand heroes' graves, Nor ever dream what dust they tread!
5.
At length, Immortal Slumberers, waking, Arise—arise!—whose mighty story Shall live while nature's self endures!— O come arrayed in all your glory, And Greece may live and yet be yours! And, hark! the slave hath burst his chain, And Triumph's raptures shares again! New-born, he feels a Spartan's soul sublime, And thrusts the Tartar from his sacred clime!
6.
Is raised where all is desolate! No answering sound affords relief To hearts that wail the wrongs of fate; Death broods o'er these abandoned plains, And horror's frozen silence reigns! Alas! the dream that soothed his soul Too fleetly fled die minstrel mourns;— Alas! when past th' infernal goal No demigod to earth returns! And hark! while here my voice of woe Is raised around their dwellings low— Repeating many a hero's name With Sparta's linked—or Athens' fame,— A turbaned Turk with sacrilegious blow Lays the last column of Minerva low!
