# A Dictionary of the Book of Mormon/Lib

​LIB. A righteous king of the Jaredites, in whose reign the nation prospered and multiplied greatly. He was the son and successor of Kish. In the reign of a former monarch named Heth, the Lord had deeply afflicted the people, because of their sins; and among other things he had caused numbers of poisonous serpents to occupy the regions in the neighborhood of the Isthmus of Panama, and thus prevented the people from gaining access to the southern continent. In Lib's days these venomous reptiles were destroyed, and the land southward was found to be full of beasts of the forest. That country was preserved as one enormous hunting ground of the race, Lib, himself, becoming a great hunter. He also built a large city at the narrowest portion of the Isthmus, apparently for the purpose of guarding the regions south from settlement, so that it might be the source of their meat supply, for the country northward was covered with inhabitants. In this reign the people greatly developed in the arts of civilization, they prosecuted mining with much vigor, improved in the manufacture of textile ​fabrics; agriculture made marked advance through the invention and application of improved machinery in the cultivation of the earth and the harvesting of their crops. They also made all manner of weapons of war, though, as this was a time of profound peace, this can only be regarded as a precautionary measure. In fact, to use the words of the sacred historian: "never could be a people more blessed than were they, and more prospered by the hand of the Lord. And they were in a land that was choice above all lands, for the Lord had spoken it."
Lib lived many years, was blessed with a numerous posterity, and when he died he was succeeded by his son Hearthom.

# A Dictionary of Music and Musicians/Stodart

​STODART. A family of eminent pianoforte-makers, whose business was founded in Wardour Street, Soho, about the year 1776, by Robert Stodart. It is said he had been in the Royal Horse Guards, to be a private in which corps involved at that time the payment of £100, an amount that must now be estimated by the then higher value of money. Having, little duty and much leisure, Stodart became a pupil of John Broadwood to learn pianoforte-making, and in the books of Broadwood's firm appears, during the year 1775, to have taken his share in tuning for customers. It was while he was under Broadwood that he had the privilege, enjoyed by them as friends, of assisting Americus Backers in the invention of the new movement for the grand pianoforte since generally known as the 'English' action. After Backers' death, Stodart, now upon his own account, entered upon grand pianoforte making with energy and ability, and soon made a considerable reputation. The pianoforte was at that time hardly emancipated from the harpsichord, and there were frequent endeavours to combine both principles in one instrument. An endeavour of this nature was patented by Stodart in 1777, which is otherwise remarkable by the first mention of the word 'grand' in connection with a pianoforte. In it he worked his crowquill registers, and also a swell, by means of pedals.

# A Dictionary of Music and Musicians/Stockhausen, Margarethe

​STOCKHAUSEN, Madame, was born Margarethe Schmuck, at Gebweiler in 1803, and trained in Paris as a concert-singer by Cartruffo. She became the wife of the harpist and composer Franz Stockhausen, and the mother of the singer Julius Stockhausen. Husband and wife travelled, giving not very remunerative concerts in Switzerland (1825). Paris was visited later, but Mme. Stockhausen's greatest successes attended her in England, where she was induced to return almost every year from 1828 to 1840, singing at some of the concerts of the Philharmonic and Vocal Societies, and also taking part in the principal private and benefit concerts. She had little or no dramatic feeling, but as she gained in power she grew in public favour, and came to be recognised as a true musician and an accomplished singer of Swiss airs (with or without the 'jodel' burden), and also, and especially, those of Mozart, Spohr, Handel and Haydn. Mme. Stockhausen was frequently engaged at provincial festivals, and her delivery of the music of Mary in Spohr's 'Calvary,' evoked special praise among her oratorio parts. The Earl of Mount-Edgecumbe, in his criticism of the Musical Festival in Westminster Abbey, 1834, notes the 'science and skill which enabled her always to sing well.'
Mme. Stockhausen's voice is described by Henry Phillips as 'a clear, high soprano, the upper part of her register being unusually sweet and liquid, qualities which she rarely missed the opportunity of exhibiting, for she almost always terminated her songs on the highest octave.'

# A Dictionary of Music and Musicians/Stoltz, Rosine

​STOLTZ, Rosine, celebrated French singer, whose chequered life has afforded materials for more than one romance, born in Paris, Feb. 13, 1815. According to Fétis her real name was Victorine Noeb, but she entered Ramier's class in Choron's school in 1826 as Rose Niva. She became a chorus-singer at one of the theatres after the Revolution of 1830, and in 1832 made a very modest début at Brussels. In 1833 she sang at Lille under the name of Rosine Stoltz. Her knowledge of music was deficient, and she never became a perfect singer, but nevertheless made a considerable mark in lyric tragedy. The first time she displayed her powers was when acting with A. Nourrit as Rachel in 'La Juive' at Brussels in 1836. She re-appeared in the part at the Opéra in Paris, Aug. 25, 1837. Though inferior to Mlle. Falcon, who had created the rôle, the public was interested by a talent so original and full of fire, though so unequal, and Mme. Stoltz became a favourite from the day she appeared in parts written expressly for her. Indeed throughout Léon Pillet's management (1841 to 47) she reigned without a rival. She created the following mezzo-soprano parts:—Lazarillo in Marliani's 'Xacarilla' (1839); Léonore in 'La Favorite' (1840); Agathe in 'Der Freischütz' (1841); Catarina in 'La Reine de Chypre' (1841); Odette in 'Charles VI' (1843); Zayda in Donizetti's 'Dom Sébastien' (1843); Beppo in Halévy's 'Lazzarone,' Desdemona in 'Otello,' and 'Marie Stuart' in Niedermeyer's opera (1844); Estrelle in Balfe's 'Etoile de Séville' (1845); David in Mermet's opera of that name, and Marie in Rossini's pasticcio 'Robert Bruce' (1846). The last three were failures, and in 1849 she left Paris, but appeared for some time longer in the provinces and abroad. Then no more was heard of her excepting the fact of her successive marriages to a Baron and two foreign princes. Schoen published in her name six melodies for voice and PF. in 1870.
Among the works based on the life of Rosine Stoltz may be mentioned Scudo's 'Histoire d'une cantatrice de l'Opéra'; Lamer's 'Mme. Rosine Stoltz' (Paris 1847, 16mo); Cantinjou's 'Les Adieux de Mme. Stoltz' (Paris 1847, 18mo) and Mlle. Eugénie Pérignon's 'Rosine Stoltz' (Paris 1847, 8vo).

ARGYLL, DUCHESS OF,
Formerly Lady Villiers, is one of the noblest of the princesses Of Scotland, and her claims to be considered so rest upon something more than hereditary descent. She is the worthy daughter of such a mother as the duchess of Sutherland, and is devoting her best energies to ameliorate suffering, and to reclaim the erring. She originated in Scotland a system of visitation of prisons, by members of societies formed for the purpose. The first visiting society was established at Inverary; and, although the Duchess had at first considerable difficulties to overcome, the happy results which followed encouraged her to persevere, until the efficacy of the system recommended itself to the public. Similar societies have been set in operation in most of the towns of the north.
# A Cyclopaedia of Female Biography/Ariadne

Layout 2
ARIADNE,
Was the elder daughter of Leo the First, emperor of the East, who ascended the throne in 457. In 468, she was given in marriage to Trascalisseus, or, as some call him, Arlcmesius, a noble Isaurian, who, on this occasion, assumed the name of Zeno, and was created a Roman patrician; he was appointed to situations of great trust and power by his father-in-law, on whose death, in 474, he became regent of the empire, his son by Ariadne being yet an Infant, whose death In the following year threw the imperial power Into his hands; there docs not appear sufficient grounds for the opinion entertained by some, that Ariadne poisoned her son, although It appears that she encouraged her husband to assume the purple after his death. Neither is there good authority for the statement put forth, that she afterwards shut Zeno up in a sepulchre, when intoxicated, and left him there to perish. The ​more reliable authority states that he died in a fit of apoplexy, in 491. Ariadne's marriage with Anastasius, a man of obscure origin soon after this event, it is true, gave a colour of plausibility to such injurious reports, but a careful examination of the whole of the somewhat conflicting historical evidence leads us to the conclusion that she was at all events innocent of this crime, as well as of that of having lived in adulterous intercourse with Anastasius during the life of Zeno.
When the former became emperor through her influence, she exercised the power she possessed over him for good; her first husband she accompanied during a brief period of exile, and defended hit cause against his enemies with great activity and address. On the whole, we may well agree with the writer in the Biographical Dictionary of the Useful Knowledge Society, and say "The general impression we receive from these facts in the life of Ariadne, which may be considered as true, is, that she was an affectionate, active, and highly-gifted woman, who, on many occasions, showed more character than the emperors." Ariadne died in the twenty-fifth year of the reign of Anastasius, that is, in 515, he having been crowned in the month of April, 491.

Was chosen, while yet in her noviciate, by her elder sister, Marie Angelique, to be the mistress of the novices at the convent of Port-Royal. During the five years that Marie Angelique passed in the abbey at Maubuisson, Catharine was entrusted with the government of Port-Royal, and appointed coadjutrix with her sister, who was desirous of resigning it wholly to her management. Agnes, respected and beloved by the nuns instructed them no less by her example, than by her eloquent discourses. She was equally celebrated for her talents and her piety. She was the author of two small treatises entitled "Le Chapelet Secret du Saint Sacrament," and "L'Image de la Réligeuse, parfaite et imparfaite." The former was censured by some members of the Sorbonne, and it was suppressed.
Catharine Agnes Arnauld died February 19th., 1671, at the age of seventy-seven.

He died in the same year, and left to her the administration of his dominions, in which she acquitted herself well, during the minority of her eleven children. From her came all the house of Este, which still subsist, in the branch of the dukes of Modena and of Rhegio.

Sister of Robert, Antoine, and Henri Arnauld, was abbess of the Port-Royal convent, and distinguished herself by the reformation and sanctity she introduced there, and also at the convent of Maubuisson, where she presided five years. She returned to Port-Royal, and died in 1661, aged seventy. Her mother and six of her sisters passed the evening of their life in her convent. She was early distinguished for her capacity and virtues. While at Maubuisson, she became acquainted with St. Francis de Sales, bishop of Geneva, who continued through his whole life to correspond with her. She displayed peculiar skill and sagacity in the changes she introduced into the convents under her control. Careful to exact nothing of the nuns of which she had not set the example, she found, in the respect and emulation she Inspired, an engine to which constraint is powerless. Self-denial, humility, and charity, were among the most prominent of her virtues.

​BOURNE (NICHOLAS), bookseller in London; South entrance. Royal Exchange [Cornhill], 1601–57. Son of Henry Bourne, citizen and cordwainer of London, put himself apprentice to Cuthbert Burby, bookseller, for seven years from March 25th, 1601. Burby died between August 24th and September 16th, 1607, and by his will left Nicholas Bourne the offer of his stock on favourable terms and gave him the lease of the premises in Cornhill in consideration of his true and faithful service. Mistress Burby assigned over her late husband's copyrights to Nicholas Bourne on October 16th, 1609. These consisted mainly of theological works, and we have it on the evidence of John Bellamy, q.v. one of his apprentices, that he would not allow them to sell play-books [see A Justification of the City Remonstrance and its Vindication, E. 350. (23).] Nicholas Bourne was Master of the Company in 1643 and again in 1651. He died in 1657.
