United States Supreme Court
93 U.S. 86
Kitchen v. Randolph
ON motion to vacate a supersedeas.
This is a motion by the appellee to vacate and set aside an order made by an associate justice of this court, granting the petition of the appellant for a supersedeas directing a stay of all proceedings, under a decree of the Circuit Court of the United States for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, foreclosing a mortgage on property of the Wilmington and Reading Railroad Company, and ordering a sale of the same.
The bill for the foreclosure and sale was filed by Randolph, as holder of coupon-bonds of that company, secured by a certain deed of trust and mortgage against the company, the trustees named in the deed and two other junior mortgages, and the Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New York Railroad Company, as original defendants.
Subsequently, Kitchen, a bondholder under a junior mortgage of the Wilmington and Reading Railroad Company, was allowed to intervene as a defendant and file an answer.
The case was heard on the bill, the answers of the original defendants, and that of Kitchen; and, on the 6th of June, 1876, the court below entered a decree foreclosing the mortgage as against certain of the property and franchises covered by it, and ordering a sale by the trustees, after due advertisements for three months prior to the day of sale.
The sale was accordingly fixed by due advertisements, as prescribed by the decree, for the 2d of October, 1876.
No appeal from this decree, or any part of it, was prayed in the court below by any of the defendants; but, on the 29th of September, 1876, the appellant filed his petition for the allowance of an appeal and for a supersedeas, both of which were allowed on that day by the associate justice, and a citation addressed to the complainant below, returnable on the first day of the present term of this court, was issued.
The motion was argued by Mr. J. Hubley Ashton for the appellee, and by Mr. Samuel Dickson and Mr. Wayne Mac Veagh for the appellant.
MR. CHIEF JUSTICE WAITE delivered the opinion of the court.

# Kitab al Khazari

* sister projects: Wikipedia article, Commons category, Wikidata item.
Commonly called the Kuzari, this book is the most famous work by the medieval Spanish Jewish writer Judah Halevi. The work is divided into five parts, and takes the form of a dialogue between the pagan king of the Khazars and a Jew who had been invited to instruct him in the tenets of the Jewish religion. Originally written in Judeo-Arabic, its Hebrew translation by Judah ibn Tibbon became the standard edition among Jews in Europe while the original Arabic text circulated among Arabic-speaking Jews in the Muslim world, but there have been numerous other translations. The original Arabic text was first published in 1887 by Hartwig Hirschfeld. A new edition appeared of the Hebrew text in Israel in 1977. This edition is that of the 1905 translation by Hartwig Hirschfeld from his translation edition from the original text. This is, so far, the only translation into English made from the original Arabic text.

# Latter Day Saints' Messenger and Advocate/Volume 3/Number 4/A New Year's Song

A NEW YEARS' SONG.
BY P. P. PRATT.
This morning in silence I ponder and mourn,
O'er the scenes that have passed no more to return,
How vast are the labors, the troubles and fears,
Of eight hundred millions, who've toil'd through the year.
How many ten thousands were slain by their foes,
While widows and orphans have mourned o'er their woes,
While pestilence, famine and earthquakes appear,
And signs in the heavens, throughout the past year.
How many been murder'd and plunder'd and robb'd,
How many oppressed and driven by mobs,
How oft have the heaven's bedewed with their tears
The earth, o'er the scenes they beheld the past year.
But the day-star has dawn'd o'er the land of the bless'd.
The first beams of morning, the morning of rest;
When cleans'd from pollution, the earth shall appear
As the garden of Eden, and peace crown the year.
Then welcome the new year, I hail with delight,
The season approaching with time's rapid flight;
while each fleeting moment brings near and more near,
The day, long expected, the great thousand years.
I praise and adore the eternal I Am;
Hosanna, hosanna to God and the Lamb,
Who order the seasons that glide o'er the spheres.
And crown with such blessings, each happy new year.
# Latter Day Saints' Messenger and Advocate/Volume 3/Number 4/Conference minutes from Kirtland, Ohio

MINUTES OF A CONFERENCE, HELD IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD, ON THE 22D DAY OF DECEMBER, 1836.
The authorities of the church being present; viz: the first Presidency, the High Council of Kirtland, the quorum of the Twelve, the Presidents of the Seventies, the President of the Elders and his counsellors [counselors], and many other official members, such as Priests, Teachers, Deacons, &c:—The house was called to order, and the following motions were made, seconded, and carried by the unanimous voice of the Assembly.
1st. That it has been the case, that a very improper and unchristian—like course of conduct, by the Elders of this church, and the churches abroad, in sending their poor from among them, and moving to this place, without the necessary means of subsistence: whereas the church in this place being poor from the beginning, having had to pay an extortionary price for their lands, provisions, &c; and having a serious burthen [burden] imposed upon them by comers and goers from most parts of the world, and in assisting the travelling Elders and their families, while they themselves have been laboring in the vineyard of the Lord, to preach the gospel; and also having suffered great loss in endeavoring to benefit Zion: it has become a serious matter, which ought well to be considered by us—
Therefore, after deliberate discussion upon the subject, it was motioned, seconded and unanimously carried, that we have borne our part of this burthen [burden], and that it becomes the duty, henceforth, of all the churches abroad, to provide for those who are objects of charity, that are not able to provide for themselves; and not send them from their midst, to burthen [burden] the church in this place, unless they come and prepare a place for them, and means for their support.
2nd. That there be a stop put to churches or families gathering or moving to this place, without their first coming or sending their wise men, to prepare a place for them, as our houses are all full, and our lands mostly occupied, except those houses and lands that do not belong to the church, which cannot be obtained without great sacrifice, especially when brethren with their families, are crowding in upon us, and are compelled to purchase at any rate; and consequently are thrown into the hands of speculators, and extortioners, with which the Lord is not well pleased. Also, that the churches abroad do according to the revelation contained in the Book of Commandments, page 238, commencing at section 10, which is as follows:
"Now verily I say unto you, let all the churches gather together all their moneys; let these things be done in their time, be not in haste; and observe to have all these things prepared before page 444you. And let honorable men be appointed, even wise men, and send them to purchase these lands; and every church in the eastern countries when they are built up, if they will hearken unto this counsel, they may buy lands and gather together upon them, and in this way they may establish Zion."
Pres't JOSFPH [JOSEPH] SMITH,
Chairman.
WARREN PARRISH, Clerk.

BOSCASTLE WATERFALL AND QUARRY.
H, gloomy quarry! thou dost hide in thee The tower and shrine. The city vast and grand and wonderful, And strong, is thine.  Look at the mighty buildings of our land, What once were they? Ere they rose fashioned by the cunning hand, In proud array.  One fronts me now, a temple beautiful, Touched by the light Which has so much of heaven—the light of eve, Golden and bright.
In dull relief against the cloudy sky These turrets rise: Our fine old Abbey, where the dust of kings, Tranquilly lies.*  Winning the eye amid the crowded street, To other thought, Than that the haste, the noise, the changeful scene Around me brought.  Mingling in air, the twin-born spires So nobly stand: They seem eternal, yet are they the work, Man, of thy hand.  Yet, must they first have, in some quarry lain Rude, shapeless, lone, Until the mind of man inspired his hand To work in stone.  Alas! the contrast between us, and what We can create;
That man should be so little in himself, His works so great.
* We talk of the beauties of nature, I must own I am more pleased with those of art. I know no spectacle more impressive than a great street in a great city,—take Piccadilly, for instance; the immense variety of faces that hurry past, each without interest in the other, for how rare it is to remark the greeting even of acquaintance; indeed, you may often walk for days, and not meet a creature you know. The houses, with all their daily life—associations of comfort, force you to think how man's ingenuity has been exerted for man's pleasure. The shops, where every article is a triumph of ingenuity—some curious, some beautiful. The sweep of the Green Park: grass close beside the worn pavement,—the beautiful garden of Lord Coventry,—the royal gift destined for the solace of the blind and of the aged friend. Westminster Abbey rising in dim and dusky grandeur,—Westminster Abbey, where history becomes poetry, and whose illustrious dead are familiar to every memory. The many carriages, each like a grade in the complicated grades of society; the wealth few pause to envy, the poverty still fewer pause to pity. The gradual closing in of night, whose empire is here disputed by the lamps linked in one long line of light,—each holding its imprisoned flame, and, last, the triumphal arch at Hyde Park, while the open space behind is shrouded in unbroken darkness.

CHURCH OF THE CARMELITE FRIARY.
ONG years have fled away since last  I stood upon my native land, And other longer years have past  Since here I raised a suppliant hand; And yet how oft the sacred shrine,  How oft the holy vesper song Again in slumber have been mine.  Upon the night hour borne along; And wakened in the wanderer's mind  His early hope, and early fear, All that my youth had left behind,  All that my youth held more than dear;
Methinks it has not all been lost,  The influence of that holy fane; How often has its image crost,  And checked when other checks were vain. Rage and revenge, and worldly care,  Have all been calmed and purified, By memory of the childish prayer  I whispered at my mother's side. Again I see the sunbeams fall  Upon the sculptured aisles’ array; Again the marble saints recall  The feelings of my earlier day. Still be their holy presence given,  Still be their faith alive in me, For he hath need to hope in heaven,  Whose home is on the stormy sea!
These lines refer to an anecdote told me by a young Naval Officer, respecting the capture of a piratical vessel, off the coast of Brazil, about eight years since. The crew consisted of a mixture of all nations, among whom there were two Irishmen and a Scotchman. They all fought with desperation, and several were killed in the action which took place between the boats of the English ship and the pirate. "I was made prize-master," said the gallant relater to me, "and amongst some papers which I found on board, was an unfinished letter in English, which made me lament the fate of the writer, who, no doubt, was one of the unfortunate trio of our fellow-subjects on board. The Scotchman made his escape; one of the Irishmen died of his wounds; the other was hanged at Rio, and, from his demeanour at the place of execution, I have always considered him to be the writer of the letter which I found."
I was afterwards presented with the original letter. It appears to have been addressed to an early friend in the West Indies, and from it the following passage is extracted:
"Amid all the chances of warfare, and through the changes of desperate years, I have never forgotten that holy chapel where first I was taught to pray, and its memory has often come over me with a blessed and saving influence. Fortune has made me not only the sport of the elements, but the companion in arms of daring and unprincipled men. I have been so familiar with scenes of murder, as scarcely to shudder at them; to this my evil destiny has forced me, but, though compelled to be a sharer in them, my heart has never scoffed at its Maker, nor has my hand been raised but in self-defence; or, what was the same thing, in the duty I was obliged to perform—in which disobedience, or even hesitation, would have caused instant death."

Dim, thro’ the sculptured aisles the sun-beam falls More like a dream Of some imagined beam, Than actual daylight over mortal walls.
A strain of music like the rushing wind, But deep and sweet As when the waters meet, In one mysterious harmony combined.
So swells the mighty organ, rich and full, As if it were the soul Which raised the glorious whole, Of that fair building vast and wonderful.
Doth not the spirit feel its influence, All vain and feverish care, All thoughts that worldly are, Strife, tumult, mirth, and fear are vanished hence.
The world is put aside, within the heart Those hopes arise Thrice sacred mysteries, In which our earthly nature has no part.
Oh, Christian Fane, the soul expands in thee, Thine altar and thy tomb Speak of the hope and doom, Which leads and cheers man to eternity.

FOUNTAIN’S ABBEY.
EVER more, when the day is o’er, Will the lonely vespers sound; No bells are ringing—no monks are singing, When the moonlight falls around.
A few pale flowers, which in other hours May have cheered the dreary mood; When the votary turned to the world he had spurned, And repined at the solitude.
Still do they blow ’mid the ruins below, For fallen are fane and shrine,
And the moss has grown o’er the sculptured stone Of an altar no more divine.
Still on the walls, where the sunshine falls, The ancient fruit-tree grows; And o’er tablet and tomb, extends the bloom Of many a wilding rose.
Fair though they be, yet they seemed to me To mock the wreck below; For mighty the tower, where the fragile flower May now as in triumph blow.
Oh, foolish the thought, that my fancy brought; More true and more wise to say, That still thus doth spring, some gentle thing, With its beauty to cheer decay.
"Many a garden flower grows wild:" amid the ruins of the old monasteries, many a weary hour may their cultivation once have beguiled. At Fountain’s Abbey there is still preserved a species of pear peculiar to the place.

ADMIRAL LORD COLLINGWOOD.
ETHINKS it is a glorious thing,  To sail upon the deep; A thousand sailors under you,  Their watch and ward to keep:
To see your gallant battle-flag,  So scornfully unrolled, As scarcely did the wild wind dare  To stir one crimson fold:
To watch the frigates scattered round,  Like birds upon the wing;
Yet know, they only wait your will—  It is a glorious thing.
Our Admiral stood on the deck,  And looked upon the sea; He held the glass in his right hand,  And far and near looked he:
He could not see one hostile ship  Abroad upon the main; From east to west, from north to south,  It was his own domain.
"Good news is this for Old England,"  Forth may her merchants fare Thick o’er the sea—no enemy  Will cross the pathway there.
A paleness came upon his cheek,  A shadow to his brow: Alas, our good Lord Collingwood,  What is it ails him now!
Tears stand within the brave man’s eyes,  Each softer pulse is stirred; It is the sickness at the heart,  Of hope too long deferred.
He’s pining for his native seas,  And for his native shore: All but his honour he would give,  To be at home once more.
He does not know his children’s face,  His wife might pass him by, He is so altered—did they meet,  With an unconscious eye:
He has been many years at sea,  He’s worn with wind and wave: He asks a little breathing space,  Between it and his grave:
He feels his breath come heavily,  His keen eye faint and dim; It was a weary sacrifice,  That England asked of him.
He never saw his home again—  The deep voice of the gun, The lowering of his battle-flag,  Told when his life was done.
His sailors walked the deck, and wept;  Around them howled the gale; And far away two orphans knelt,  A widow’s cheek grew pale.
Amid the many names that light  Our history’s blazoned line, I know not one, brave Collingwood,  That touches me like thine.
There is a brief but most affecting memoir of Lord Collingwood, in Fisher’s National Portrait Gallery. Feeling every hour his health failing him, he repeatedly petitioned to be recalled—his services were too valuable, and he died in his "high command." I know nothing more touching than the affectionate regrets he expresses in his letters to his children, that they are growing up in ignorance of their father.
