# Protestant Exiles from France/Book First - Chapter 15 - Romieu

Layout 2
Romieu.
Refugees bearing this illustrious surname came to this country at an early date. Romieu de Villeneuve was the famous prime-minister of Raymond de Berenger, Comte de Provence in ancient times. The historical facts concerning him are preserved in a comparatively modern printed book entitled, “Histoire de l’incomparable administration de Romieu, grand ministre d’estat en Provence lorsqu’elle etoit en souveraineté, ou se voyent les effects d’une grande sagesse et d’une rare fidelité ensemble, le vray modele d’un ministre d’estat et d’un surintendant de finances. Par le Sr. Michel Baudier, du Languedoc, gentilhomme de la maison du Roy, Con$^{er.}$ et Historiographe de Sa Majesté. A Paris, chez Jean Camusat, Rue Saint-Jacques à la Toyson d’Or, 1635. Avec Privilege du Roy.” The family was noble and survived as such, although the prime-minister’s descendants died out in the third or fourth generation after him. Yet I hardly think that our refugees belonged to it. During the lapse of so long a time the surname of Romieu, like the Scotch surnames of Bruce, Stewart, Douglas, and Hamilton, must have become undistinguishably blended with the general population. A family of the name settled in London in the first half of the seventeenth century, and are met with in the parish of St. Dionis Backchurch. The registrar sometimes spelt the name Romaea, but it is sometimes spelt correctly. The head of the family, who is called “Isaac Romieu, Frenchman,” died in 1646, and was buried in the churchyard of St. Dionis Backchurch, on August 16. His widow was laid in the grave beside him on 16th July 1649. The baptisms of two children of Isacke Romieu were registered in the parish church, namely, Jacob, on 16th February 1637 (n.s.), and Ester, on 2d October 1645. These seem to have survived their parents, and to have removed from the parish.

# Protestant Exiles from France/Book First - Chapter 15 - Norwich

Layout 2
Norwich.
The lists of pasteurs in Mr. J. S. Burn’s History, as a rule, are not official, but compiled by him from minutes and registrations. As to the latter, he has sometimes been led into mistakes by inserting the names of clerical friends who occasionally officiated for the regular pasteur, and also names of lay office-bearers, or ministers who were only inhabitants. In the case of Norwich, the bringing to light of their old MS. Book of Discipline has given us a correct list of ministers, though dates are not always forthcoming.
Ministers.
| 1589. | 29th April. Jan Marie and N. Basnage. |
| | [No date.] Jaques Polyander. |
| | [No date.] Pierre de Laune and Philippe Delmé. |
| | [No date.] Pierre d’Assigny. |
| 1650. | 13th February. Isaac Clementt. |
| | [No date.] Jacques le franc. |
| | [No date.] Jacob Stockmans. |
| 1588. | 1st March. Lacaux. |
Anciens in 1589. — Louys Desbonnetz, Lauren Herchar, Jaque le Rouge, Jaq. Baguclan, Josse Destaille, Simon de Lesvaux.
Diacres in 1589. — Paul Ballon, Jaque Polet, Jaque Farvaque, Pierre Gossait, Adrien de Le mé, Jan de Lescluse, Jann Fienne.
About 13th February 1655, Sebastian Taverniers signed as an ancien. He had been censured for marrying without banns. He immortalised his name in Norwich by bequeathing to the French Church certain premises, which are described in the ​existing property of that church as “Premises in St. George’s Colgate, derived from Sebastien Taverniers and his wife.”
The name of De Le mé, which Rev. Philippe D. and his descendants changed into Delmé, continued in Norwich as Du mé and De mé The French Church property of Norwich includes an annuity of £15 under the will of James De mé, dated 26th January 1717, proved 8th November 1718.
# Protestant Exiles from France/Book First - Chapter 15 - Marescaux

Layout 2
Marescaux.
This is an established French surname, but is never spelt correctly in the French Registers. I observed one near approach to accuracy — viz., Marescau; also an error of redundancy, Marescaulx. The first of the name in England was naturalized as Peter Morisco, of Lisle, on 1st November 1663; it usually was spelt Marisco, or Maresco. This immigrant became a wealthy man, and is chiefly known as the father of two heiresses, Mary, wife of Lieutenant-Colonel Peter Le Keux, and Jane, wife of Edmund Jones. The latter seems to have had a son, Edmund Jones, who died unmarried, and a daughter and heiress with a fortune of £20,000, who assumed the name of Marescaux (or Marescoe, as the Historical Register spells it), and gave her hand, in July 1735, to Richard Arnold, Esq., attorney. As instances of the occurrence of the surname we quote the following announcements:—
Birth. 6th January 1868. — At Kingston, Jamaica, the wife of Oscar Mariscaux, Esq., General Inspector of the Colonial Bank, of a daughter.
Marriage. 31st December 1868. — At St. Peter’s, Eaton Square, London, by the Rev. Edward Carr Glyn, Captain Sidney Carr Glyn, Rifle Brigade, son of George Carr Glyn, Esq., to Fanny, youngest daughter of Mons. Adolphe Marescaux, of St. Omer, France.
# Press Briefing by Press Secretary Ari Fleischer, June 6, 2001

Aboard Air Force One En Route Bedford City, Virginia
11:18 A.M. EDT
    MR. FLEISCHER: (in progress) -- almost entirely on a tribute to those who died on D-Day. It will be a real -- speech. It will be -- there will be a short reference to transatlantic ties. That will be part of the speech that is in honor to those who died.

## Q What about the story this morning? You started to mention the emphasis on global warming.

    MR. FLEISCHER: We'll let you know, Ann, if there is anything.
Q -- there was a meeting yesterday.
MR. FLEISCHER: The working group is working on -- recommendations. Some form or another --

## Q Any other words from the President on Europe?

    MR. FLEISCHER: -- newsmaking speech.

## Q What are the venues when we get in -- anything on Thursday or Friday -- in Europe? Or do you think it may be the radio address?

    MR. FLEISCHER: No, it would be Monday if there's anything to be -- well, I'll get to that on week-ahead time. That's just to be determined.

## Q That event on Friday morning in Des Moines, is that a follow-up to the Thursday signing?

    MR. FLEISCHER: Friday in Iowa, he's going there for two reasons. One is it was in Iowa where he originally announced his tax proposal, in late 1999. So the President thinks it's appropriate to go back to the place where it all began. Two, it will be on a farm where he talked about abolishing the death taxes during the Iowa caucuses, and now that he has abolished the death tax, the legislation he will sign abolishes the death tax, he wants to return to a farm that will be affected.

## Q Is he going to mention the fact that it's abolished and that it's sunsetted?

    MR. FLEISCHER: Well, actually, I was just reading something we talked about this morning -- if you look at a lot of the projections for what the tax cut is going to do for the economy, it's noteful now that -- the assumption is they will be permanent, and that's a pretty safe assumption. I think it's going to be hard for whoever is in office to raise taxes on the American people, which is what you would be doing. It would be a tax hike. So there's a safe assumption that it will be permanent. The President certainly hopes so.
    It's just an arcane rule under the Emergency Deficit Reduction Act, that says it's not permanent. You know, spending increases are permanent. They don't stop at 10 years. Only tax cuts, under the Emergency Deficit Reduction Act. That's arcane. It's a quirk and it shouldn't exist.
That is all? All right.

Whereas, an extended drought and other natural disasters in feed grain-producing areas of the United States have caused significant reductions in feed grain supplies and severe hardship to livestock producers;
Now, Therefore, I, William J. Clinton, President of the United States of America, acting under the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, including sections 201 and 301 of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.) and section 813 of the Agricultural Act of 1970 (7 U.S.C. 1427a) (the "Act"), do hereby find and proclaim that the extended drought in the Southwest and other natural disasters in other feed grain areas of the United States have resulted in a state of emergency and that the state of emergency warrants the release of the reserve established pursuant to section 813(a) of the Act (7 U.S.C. 1427a(a)). Accordingly, I hereby declare that such amounts of the reserve as determined necessary by the Secretary of Agriculture ("the Secretary") should be disposed of by the Secretary as authorized by the Act.
In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this first day of July, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and ninety-six, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and twentieth.

# Proclamation 6910

Delivered on 25 July 1996.
By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation
Forty-three years ago, a negotiated cease-fire ended 3 years of open warfare on the Korean peninsula. This cease-fire came after more than 54,000 American deaths and the capture of thousands of our brave soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines. For those who returned home, the armistice brought mixed emotions-too many of their comrades-in-arms remained prisoners of war or missing in action, and the importance of this Cold War conflict was yet to be fully understood.
Today, as the United States and South Korea maintain a strong partnership and democracy continues to sweep the globe, we remember the extraordinary sacrifices made by our men and women in uniform during the Korean conflict, and we pay tribute to their courage and their commitment to freedom. As American service men and women support the cause of peace around the world, we honor the proud legacy of our Korean War veterans who gave of themselves so that others might live in liberty. And as a testament to their proud and selfless service and sacrifice, the Korean War Veterans Memorial stands today in our Nation's Capital.
The Congress, by Public Law 104-19 (36 U.S.C. 169m) has designated July 27, 1996, as "National Korean War Veterans Armistice Day" and has authorized and requested the President to issue a proclamation in observance of this day.
Now, Therefore, I, William J. Clinton, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim July 27, 1996, as National Korean War Veterans Armistice Day. I call upon Government officials, educators, and the American people to observe this day with appropriate ceremonies and activities that recognize and give thanks to our Nation's distinguished Korean War veterans. I also ask Federal departments and agencies, interested groups, organizations, and individuals to fly the American flag at half-staff on July 27, 1996 in memory of the Americans who died as a result of their service in Korea.
In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-fifth day of July, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and ninety-six, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and twenty-first.

# Proclamation 6908

Delivered on 1 July 1996.
By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation
Our Nation was founded by people who sought the right to worship freely, and religious liberty is enshrined in our Constitution as the "first freedom" granted by our Bill of Rights. The United States is now the most multi-ethnic, multi-religious democracy in history, and we must preserve this precious freedom while making the most of our diversity. Ours is a great and noble struggle to make our national voice a chorus of unity-varied by differing intonations, but carried and lifted by a rich harmony.
The recent rash of arson attacks against black churches and other houses of worship is a stark reminder that our work to build common ground is far from over and that our progress can be threatened by forces that tear at the very fabric of our society. It is hard to think of a more heinous act than the destruction of a sacred structure. The violence that charred and defaced these buildings challenges our fundamental right to worship in safety, and has left us grim emblems of the hatred and alienation that too often darken our daily experience.
And so we must look into our hearts as America approaches the new century, pledging to devote our energies to reinvigorating the shared values that will enable us to embrace the future together. We must never go back to the terrible days of racial and ethnic division, nor can we afford to dismiss our problems by ascribing them to isolated groups or areas of the country. Instead, let us join hands to lighten our burdens and build bridges among people and communities so that we can be one America-a Nation of extraordinary possibility with opportunity, freedom, and respect for all.
Now, Therefore, I, William J. Clinton, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim July 1996, as A National Month of Unity. I call upon religious leaders of all faiths to emphasize the need for healing and tolerance. I ask all Americans to join these efforts by working together to mend divisions and promote understanding; by reaching out to friends and neighbors of all races and faiths in a spirit of fellowship; and by seeking to strengthen, through words and actions, the ideals of equality and community cherished by generations of Americans. In this birth month of our Nation, let us set an example for the world we welcome to Atlanta for the Centennial Olympic Games by rededicating ourselves to America's fundamental truth: E pluribus unum-from many, one.
In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this first day of July, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and ninety-six, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and twentieth.

# Proclamation 6912

Delivered on 21 August 1996.
By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation
Since America's earliest days, our citizens have engaged in a passionate struggle to create a Nation where all can enjoy the benefits of democracy in equal measure. In 1920, we took a great step toward that noble goal by declaring that the right to vote could not be denied on the basis of gender. This 76th anniversary of the adoption of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution gives us an opportunity to celebrate the advances made in empowering women to fully participate in the political, cultural, social, and economic life of our country.
At long last we are seeing the fruits of our efforts to establish a society made strong by its vast diversity-a place where women not only make gains in traditionally male fields, but also use their talents and perspectives to enlarge the scope of public life. The extraordinary success of our female athletes at the Centennial Olympic Games in Atlanta is one stirring example of this progress. Historically excluded from so many arenas, today's women are carrying a shining torch of hope for younger generations to follow.
Now the challenge is to keep the doors of opportunity open and to build on the changes begun by the ratification of the 19th Amendment. We must continue to encourage women to pursue elected office and to contribute to the civil discourse. Every American stands to gain when women and men of all backgrounds participate in the political process and exercise their right to vote. This is a right that we must never take for granted-and a responsibility we must never shirk-because it gives each of us a voice in our national debate and calls every citizen to join in the pursuit of our Nation's fundamental ideals.
Now, Therefore, I, William J. Clinton, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim August 26, 1996, as Women's Equality Day. I call upon all Americans to reflect on both the struggles and accomplishments of all women and to promote the observance of this day with appropriate programs and activities.
In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this twenty-first day of August, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and ninety-six, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and twenty-first.
