# Dictionary of National Biography, 1885-1900/Sutcliffe, Thomas

​SUTCLIFFE, THOMAS (1790?–1849), adventurer, son of John Sutcliffe of Stansfield, parish of Halifax, Yorkshire, and great-grandson of John Kay [q. v.] of Bury, the inventor, was born about 1790. He entered the royal navy and was on board the Kingfisher in the blockade of Corfu in 1809, and about that time fell into the enemy's hands, but managed to escape to Albania. He afterwards held a commission in the royal horse guards blue, and was with his regiment at the battle of Waterloo, where he was severely wounded. In 1817 he formed one of a band of adventurous Englishmen who went out to aid the patriots of Colombia in their struggles with Spain, and was appointed lieutenant-colonel of cavalry in the army of the republic. Here again he was made a prisoner of war, and was detained at Havana. Returning to England in 1821, he set out again for South America in August of the following year. He offered his services to the republic of Chili, and received the appointment of captain of cavalry. For sixteen years he remained in the military service of the republic, and took part in the operations of the liberating army in Peru. In 1834 he was appointed political and military governor of the island of Juan Fernandez, then used as a convict station by Chili. He witnessed the destructive earthquake there in February 1835, when he lost the greater portion of his possessions. Shortly afterwards an insurrection took place on the island, and Sutcliffe was recalled. Eventu​ally, through a change of administration, he was cashiered in March 1838, and he returned to England in January 1839, with very slender means, heavy claims for arrears of pay remaining unsettled. He then endeavoured to improve his circumstances by literary pursuits. After living in the neighbourhood of Manchester, he removed to London about 1846, and died in great indigence in lodgings at 357 Strand on 22 April 1849, aged 59.
Sutcliffe published: 1. ‘The Earthquake at Juan Fernandez, as it occurred in the year 1835,’ Manchester, 1839. 2. ‘Foreign Loans, or Information to all connected with the Republic of Chili, comprising the Epoch from 1822 to 1839,’ Manchester, 1840. 3. ‘Sixteen Years in Chile and Peru, from 1822 to 1839,’ London, 1841. 4. ‘Crusoniana; or Truth versus Fiction, elucidated in a History of the Islands of Juan Fernandez,’ Manchester, 1843. 5. ‘An Exposition of Facts relating to the Rise and Progress of the Woollen, Linen, and Cotton Manufactures of Great Britain,’ Manchester, 1843. 6. ‘A Testimonial in behalf of Merit neglected and Genius unrewarded, and Record of the Services of one of England's greatest Benefactors,’ London, 1847. The last two works were published with the object of obtaining public support for the descendants of John Kay, an aim for which he laboured unsuccessfully for several years. He also published lithographed portraits of John Kay and John Greenhalgh, governor of the Isle of Man, 1640–51, as well as a pedigree of the Greenhalghs of Brandlesome.

# Dictionary of National Biography, 1885-1900/Sutherland, William (d.1325)

​SUTHERLAND, WILLIAM, second Earl of (d. 1325), eldest son of William, first earl, succeeded his father in infancy in 1248. The first earl was the son of Hugh Freskin, who obtained the district of Sutherland from William the Lion in 1196. The second earl was present at the parliament of Scone on 5 Feb. 1284, and he also attended the convention at Brigham on 14 March 1290 (Documents illustrative of the History of Scotland, i. No. 129). In 1292 he gave his oath to aid Robert the Bruce in his claims to the crown (Cal. Documents relating to Scotland, i. No. 643); and although on 28 Aug. 1296 he did homage to Edward I at Berwick-on-Tweed (ib. ii. No. 196), he shortly afterwards took part in excursions against England. He also fought on the side of Bruce at Bannockburn in 1314, and he subscribed on 6 April 1320 the letter of the Scots nobles to the pope asserting the independence of Scotland. He died in 1325, leaving a son, Kenneth, who succeeded as third earl, fell at Halidon Hill in 1333, and was father of William, fourth earl of Sutherland [q. v.]

# Dictionary of National Biography, 1885-1900/Sutherland, William (d.1370)

​SUTHERLAND, WILLIAM, fourth Earl of (d. 1370), was the son of Kenneth, third earl, by Mary, daughter of Donald, tenth earl of Mar [q. v.] He married Margaret, younger daughter of Robert Bruce by his second wife Elizabeth, daughter of Richard de Burgh, earl of Ulster, and on 10 Nov. 1345 David II granted a charter of the earldom of Sutherland to his sister Margaret and her husband. He was one of the commissioners appointed to treat for the ransom of David II from the English. On 13 July 1353–4 he and John, his eldest son, were named hostages for David (Cal. Documents relating to Scotland, iv. No. 1576), and on 15 Oct. 1357 they appended their seals to his ransom (ib. No. 1660). John was named by David II heir to the throne, in preference to the high steward, but while still detained a hostage in England he died of the plague at Lincoln in 1361. The father was also detained a hostage in England until 20 May 1367. He died at Dunrobin in 1370, and was succeeded by his second son,
William, fifth Earl of Sutherland (d. 1398?), who, according to Froissart, was present at the capture of Berwick in 1384, and took part in the invasion of England in 1388. In 1395, during a discussion with the chief of the Mackays and his son about their differences, he suddenly, in his castle of Dingwall, attacked and killed them both with his own hand. Dying towards the close of the century, he left two sons—Robert, sixth earl, and Kenneth.
Robert, sixth Earl of Sutherland (d. 1442), was present at the battle of Homildon in 1402, and on 9 Nov. 1427 was sent into England as hostage for James I. He died in 1442, leaving by his wife Lady Mabilia Dunbar, daughter of John, earl of Moray, and granddaughter of Agnes Randolph, countess of March and Moray, three sons—John, seventh earl, Robert, and Alexander.

1904 Errata appended.
​SUTTON, Sir CHARLES (1775–1828), colonel, born in 1775, was the eldest son of Admiral Evelyn Sutton of Screveton, near Bingham, Nottinghamshire, by his wife, a daughter of Thomas Thoroton of Screveton. He was nephew of Mary Thoroton, the wife of Charles Manners-Sutton [q. v.], archbishop of Canterbury. He entered the army as an ensign in the 3rd foot guards in 1800, and in 1802 became lieutenant and captain. In 1803 he exchanged into the 23rd foot, and became major in 1807, and ​lieutenant-colonel in the army in 1811 and the regiment in 1813. After serving with Sir John Moore in his last campaign, Sutton entered the Portuguese service. At the battle of Busaco (27 Sept. 1810) he commanded their 9th regiment, and was mentioned in Wellington's despatch for his conduct. On 8 May 1811 he was in the hottest part of the action at Fuentes d'Onoro in command of the light companies in Champelmond's Portuguese brigade. Two days later he was recommended for the brevet rank of lieutenant-colonel in the English army on the ground of his distinction in the Portuguese service. At the siege of Badajos he was attached to the third division under Picton, and was present at Salamanca, Vittoria, and the later actions in the south of France. He received a cross and three clasps for his services. In 1814 he attained the rank of colonel in the Portuguese army, and was made a knight of the order of the Tower and Sword. He subsequently became colonel in the English army, and was created K.C.B. on 2 Jan. 1815. After the peace he was appointed an inspecting field officer of the militia in the Ionian Islands, and had Colonel (afterwards Sir Charles) Napier as a colleague. While on leave from Zante he died suddenly of an apoplectic stroke on 26 March 1828 at Bottesford, near Belvoir, in the house of his uncle, the Rev. Charles Thoroton.

# Dictionary of National Biography, 1885-1900/Sutton, Christopher

​SUTTON, CHRISTOPHER (1565?–1629), divine, born of humble parentage about 1565, was, according to Wood, a Hampshire man. He matriculated as a batler from Hart Hall, Oxford, on 1 March 1582–3, and graduated B.A. from Lincoln College on 12 Oct. 1586. He proceeded M.A. on 18 June 1589, B.D. on 29 May 1598, and D.D. on 30 June 1608. He became incumbent of Woodrising, Norfolk, in 1591, and from 1598 held with it the rectory of Caston in the same county (Blomefield, not, as Wood says, Caston ‘in his own county of Hampshire.’ During 1597 he was also vicar of Rainham, Essex. On 30 April 1605 he was installed canon of Westminster, a piece of preferment given him by James I for his ‘excellent and florid preaching.’ He preached in the abbey the funeral sermon on William Camden [q. v.] In 1612 he was presented to the rectory of Great Bromley, Essex, to which he added in 1618 that of Biggleswade, Bedfordshire, and in 1623 (misprinted 1632 in Blomefield) that of Cranworth, Norfolk. The first and the last he continued to hold till his death. On 23 Oct. 1618 he was also installed canon of Lincoln. He died in May or June 1629, and was buried in Westminster Abbey ‘before the vestry door’ (Wood). His name, however, does not appear in the register.
Sutton was author of some fervently devotional works which had great popularity in the seventeenth century, and were again brought into vogue by the leaders of the Oxford movement. Their titles are: 1. ‘Disce Mori. Learne to Die. A Religious Discourse moving every Christian Man to enter into a serious Remembrance of his Ende,’ 1600, 12mo. It was dedicated to Lady Elizabeth Southwell. An enlarged edition appeared in 1609, and the work was reprinted in 1616, 1618, and 1662. Editions were also issued at Oxford in 1839 and 1848, and in America in 1845. A Welsh version by M. Williams appeared in 1852. 2. ‘Disce Vivere. Learne to Live … a brief Treatise … wherein is shewed that the life of Christ is and ought to be the most perfect Patterne of Direction to the Life of a Christian,’ 1608, 12mo. In 1634 it was issued bound up with ‘Disce Mori.’ In 1839 it was reprinted at Oxford from the edition of 1626, with a preface signed with Cardinal Newman's initials, and was reissued in 1848. An American edition appeared in 1853. 3. ‘Godly Meditations upon the most holy Sacrament of the Lord's Supper … together with a short Admonition touching the Controversie about the Holy Eucharist. Also Godly Meditations concerning the Divine Presence,’ 1613, 12mo; a third edition appeared in 1677. The book was dedicated to ‘the two vertuous and modest gentlewomen, Mrs. Katherine and Mrs. Francis Southwell, sisters.’ John Henry (afterwards Cardinal) Newman, who wrote a preface for the Oxford reprint of 1838 (reissued in 1848, 24mo, and 1866, 8vo), describes it as written in the devotional tone of Bishops Taylor and Ken.

“Those who have not made acquaintance with these poems already have a pleasure to come. The comical is so comical, the grave so really beautiful.”—Literary Churchman.
“The poem which gives its name to the volume, is full of real and playful wit, from which the writer passes without the appearance of painful effort to verses of graver mood.”—Guardian.

# Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There/Preface

Child of the pure unclouded brow And dreaming eyes of wonder! Though time be fleet, and I and thou Are half a life asunder, Thy loving smile will surely hail The love-gift of a fairy-tale.
I have not seen thy sunny face, Nor heard thy silver laughter; No thought of me shall find a place In thy young life's hereafter—— Enough that now thou wilt not fail To listen to my fairy-tale.
​A tale begun in other days, When summer suns were glowing—— A simple chime, that served to time The rhythm of our rowing—— Whose echoes live in memory yet, Though envious years would say 'forget.'
Come, hearken then, ere voice of dread, With bitter tidings laden, Shall summon to unwelcome bed A melancholy maiden! We are but older children, dear, Who fret to find our bedtime near.
Without, the frost, the blinding snow. The storm-wind's moody madness—— Within, the firelight's ruddy glow. And childhood's nest of gladness. The magic words shall hold thee fast: Thou shalt not heed the raving blast.
​And though the shadow of a sigh May tremble through the story, For 'happy summer days' gone by, And vanish'd summer glory—— It shall not touch with breath of bale The pleasance of our fairy-tale.
# Tom Daschle's statement of withdrawal

Issued on 3 February 2009.
Barack Obama issued this statement on 3 February 2009.
I have just informed the President that I am withdrawing my name from consideration for Secretary of Health and Human Services.
To be chosen by President Obama to run the Department of Health and Human Services and to lead the reform of America’s health care system is one of the signal honors of an improbably career.
But if 30 years of exposure to the challenges inherent in our system has taught me anything, it has taught me that this work will require a leader who can operate with the full faith of Congress and the American people, and without distraction.
Right now, I am not that leader, and will not be a distraction. The focus of Congress should be on the urgent business of moving the President’s economic agenda forward, including affordable health care for every American.
We need the best care in America to be available to all Americans. We need this effort to succeed. Lives and livelihoods are at stake.
I will not be the architect of America’s health system reform, but I remain one of its most fervent supporters. Thank you.

# Tom Gage's Proclamation

A poem published shortly after the Battle of Bunker Hill, critical of what happened during the battle and the ensuing colonial policy.
TOM GAGE'S PROCLAMATION:
Or blustering denunciation (Replete with defamation) Threatening devastation, And speedy jugulation, Of the new English nation, Who shall his pious ways shun?
Whereas the rebels hereabout, Are stubborn still, and still hold out; Refusing yet to drink their tea, In spite of Parliament and me; And to maintain their bubble, Right, Prognosticate a real fight; Preparing flints, and guns, and ball, My army and the fleet to maul; Mounting their gilt to such a pitch, As to let fly at soldier's breech; Pretending they design'd a trick Tho' ordered not to hurt a chick; But peaceably, without alarm, The men of Concord to disarm; Or, if resisting, to annoy, And every magazine destroy: All which, tho' long obliged to bear Thro’ want of men, and not of fear; I'm able now by augmentation, To give a proper castigation; For since th' addition to the troops, Now reinforc'd as thick as hops; I can, like Jemmy at the Boyne, Look safely on-fight you, Burgoyne; And mow, like grass, the rebel Yankees, I fancy not these doodle dances: Yet ere I draw the vengeful sword, I have thought fit to send abroad, This present gracious proclamation, Of purpose mild the demonstration, That whoso'er keeps gun or pistol I'll spoil the motion of his systole: Or, whip his ----, or cut his weason As haps the measure of his treason: But every one that will lay down His hanger bright and musket brown, Shall not be bruised, nor beat, nor bang'd, Much less for past offences hang'd; But on surrendering his toledo, Go to and fro unhurt as we do :- But then I must, out of this plan, lock Both SAMUEL ADAMS and JOHN HANCOCK; For those vile traitors (like debentures) Must be tucked up at all adventures; As any proffer of a pardon, Would only tend those rogues to harden: But every other mother's son, The instant he destroys his gun, (For thus doth run the king's command) May, if he will, come kiss my hand. And to prevent such wicked game, as Pleading the plea of ignoramus; Be this my proclamation spread To every reader that can read :- And as nor law nor right was known Since my arrival in this town; To remedy this fatal flaw, I hereby publish martial law. Meanwhile, let all, and every one Who loves his life, forsake his gun; And all the council by mandamus, Who have been reckoned so infamous, Return unto their habitation, Without or let or molestation. Thus graciously the war I wage, As witnesseth my hand, - TOM GAGE.” By command of Mother Carey, Thomas Flucker, Secretary

"Is Mr. F. Hopkinson Smith a lawyer? We know him to be several other things—contractor, bridge builder, architect, besides an artist of no mean repute both with pen and pencil […] the skill with which he has pleaded the case of Tom Grogan vs. organised labour in general, and the Stevedores' Union in particular, would seem to argue a certain acquaintance with judicial methods and with the vulnerable points of the intelligent American juror. [...] Mr. Hopkinson Smith has done a fine piece of work in the delineation of this gallant Amazon [who takes on an organized labor gang]; a portrait (if one grant the outlines) entirely without exaggeration." —from a review in The Bookman, July 1896.
