# The Dictionary of Australasian Biography/Haines, Hon. William Clarke

Layout 2
​Haines, Hon. William Clarke, M.L.A., first Premier of Victoria, was born in England in 1807, and educated for the medical profession. After practising as a surgeon he emigrated to Victoria in 1848. Three years later, when that colony was separated from New South Wales, he was nominated a non-official member of the semi-elective Legislative Council then formed. In 1854, when Mr. Foster was sacrificed by Governor Hotham in the hope of propitiating popular favour, Mr. Haines, who had farmed unsuccessfully near Geelong, was appointed to succeed him as Chief Secretary, and held that position until responsible government was conceded, when he and his colleagues resigned their posts, with a view, as was alleged, of securing the pensions allotted to them under the Constitution Act, in case of their being released from office on political grounds. For this conduct they only escaped censure in the Council by a single vote. In Dec. 1855 the Haines Government, who had been reappointed in the previous month to their former places, as the first responsible ministry, were defeated on Mr. Nicholson's ballot resolution, and resigned office. Mr. Nicholson not, however, being in a position to form a government, Mr. Haines and his colleagues were recalled, and remained in power until March 1857, when they were defeated on a vote of want of confidence, and Mr. (afterwards Sir) John O'Shanassy formed a ministry, which only, however, lasted seven weeks, a motion censuring their conduct in not having a representative in the Upper House being carried against them on the first night on which they met Parliament. Mr. Haines, who in the previous year had been returned to the first Legislative Assembly for South Grant, once more resumed the premiership with the office of Chief Secretary, but was again defeated, and succeeded by Mr. O'Shanassy in March 1858. He then paid a visit of three years to Europe, and on his return, in 1861, was elected to the Assembly for Portland. In the same year he took office under his old opponent Mr. O'Shanassy, and acted as Treasurer from Nov. 1861 to June 1863. Although he carried the measure granting universal suffrage, Mr. Haines was in many respects a Conservative, opposing the ballot, and combining with Sir John O'Shanassy in the attempt to strangle the national system of state education. He died in 1864.

​Haast, Sir John Francis Julius von, K.C.M.G., Ph.D., F.R.S., F.L.S., F.G.S., C.M.Z.S., son of Mathias Haas, in Bonn, Germany, was born on May 1st, 1824, and educated at the schools of Bonn and Cologne, and at the University of Bonn. At college he devoted himself to geological studies, and for some years resided in France. In 1858 he arrived in Auckland, N.Z., and accompanied Dr. Hochstetter in his tour through the colony. Being employed by the authorities of Nelson to explore the western and southern parts of the province, he made ​many geological and topographical discoveries in that region, and a report of his explorations was printed by the Government. In 1861 he was appointed Provincial Geologist of Canterbury, and made numerous scientific expeditions into the unknown uplands and into Westland, the results being embodied afterwards in a volume on the geology of the provinces of Westland and Canterbury. In recognition of these services the Royal University of Tubingen granted him the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in 1862, and he was made a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1867. Dr. von Haast was instrumental in founding the Canterbury Museum in Christchurch, which has the reputation of being the finest in the southern hemisphere, and of which he was director down to the time of his death. In 1872 he joined in founding the Canterbury Collegiate Union, from which sprang Canterbury College, in affiliation to the New Zealand University, of which he was a Fellow and a member of the Senate. From its foundation till his death Dr. von Haast was Professor of Geology and Palaeontology in Canterbury College. In 1862 he founded the Philosophical Institute of Canterbury. In 1884 he received the gold medal of the Royal Geographical Society, the first bestowed for exploration in New Zealand. In 1886 he went to England as Commissioner for New Zealand at the Colonial and Indian Exhibition, and in the same year was created K.C.M.G., having previously been C.M.G. He died after his return to New Zealand, on August 15th, 1887. Sir Julius von Haast married in 1863 Mary, daughter of Edward Dobson, C.E., M.I.E.C., of Christchurch, N.Z. (q.v.), who still survives.

On Jan. 1st, 1867, Mr. Haddon visited India, the continent of Europe, and England in 1874, returning to Australia by way of America. He revisited England in 1879 on account of ill-health, and was requested to informally champion the views of the Victorian Constitutional party in influential quarters at home, in opposition to the Berry embassy, which was then in London. In pursuance of this object, he interviewed nearly all the leading British statesmen and metropolitan editors, wrote letters to the Times and other journals, and published a pamphlet giving a history of the Constitutional difficulty in Victoria, which was laid before the British Cabinet and sent to every member of both Houses of Parliament, and the editor of every political newspaper in Great Britain. Mr. Haddon returned to Victoria after the conclusion of the embassy, in 1879. He has been twice married.
# The Famous Tay Whale

'Twas in the month of December, and in the year 1883, That a monster whale came to Dundee, Resolved for a few days to sport and play, And devour the small fishes in the silvery Tay.
So the monster whale did sport and play Among the innocent little fishes in the beautiful Tay, Until he was seen by some men one day, And they resolved to catch him without delay.
When it came to be known a whale was seen in the Tay, Some men began to talk and say, We must try and catch this monster of a whale, So come on, brave boys, and never say fail.
Then the people together in crowds did run, Resolved to capture the whale and to have some fun! So small boats were launched on the silvery Tay, While the monster of the deep did sport and play.
Oh! it was a most fearful and beautiful sight, To see it lashing the water with its tail all its might, And making the water ascend like a shower of hail, With one lash of its ugly and mighty tail.
Then the water did descend on the men in the boats, Which wet their trousers and also their coats; But it only made them the more determined to catch the whale, But the whale shook at them his tail.
Then the whale began to puff and to blow, While the men and the boats after him did go, Armed well with harpoons for the fray, Which they fired at him without dismay.
And they laughed and grinned just like wild baboons, While they fired at him their sharp harpoons: But when struck with the harpoons he dived below, Which filled his pursuers' hearts with woe:
Because they guessed they had lost a prize, Which caused the tears to well up in their eyes; And in that their anticipations were only right, Because he sped on to Stonehaven with all his might:
And was first seen by the crew of a Gourdon fishing boat, Which they thought was a big cobble upturned afloat; But when they drew near they saw it was a whale, So they resolved to tow it ashore without fail.
So they got a rope from each boat tied around his tail, And landed their burden at Stonehaven without fail; And when the people saw it their voices they did raise, Declaring that the brave fishermen deserved great praise.
And my opinion is that God sent the whale in time of need, No matter what other people may think or what is their creed; I know fishermen in general are often very poor And God in His goodness sent it to drive poverty from their door.
So Mr. John Wood has bought it for two hundred and twenty-six pound, And has brought it to Dundee all safe and all sound; Which measures forty feet in length from the snout to the tail, So I advise the people far and near to see it without fail.
Then hurrah! for the mighty monster whale, Which has got seventeen feet four inches from tip to tip of a tail! Which can be seen for a sixpence or a shilling, That is to say, if the people all are willing.

# The Fraternity and the Undergraduate (collection)/Preface

In this second volume of essays on fraternity life I have brought together the papers written during the past two years. The connections between them is not always close, and there has been no thought in my mind of covering the whole field of fraternity activity. Six of the papers have previously been published: "The Chapter Letter" and "Building a Chapter House" appeared in the Alpha Tau Omega Palm; "Vaudeville and Photo Plays" was published in Banta's Greek Exchange; "The Man Who Does Not Join," in the Carnation of Delta Sigma Phi; "Rushing and the Rushee," in Delta of Sigma Nu; and "The Future of the Fraternity" was delivered as an address before the twenty-sixth biennial Congress of Alpha Tau Omega.

# The Doctrine and Covenants (1922 RLDS)/Section 121

SECTION 121.
1. At the April session of conference of 1885, during the consideration of the sustaining of the officers of the church made the special order for the 11th, when David H. Smith, second counselor to the president, was presented, the question was asked whether any communication had been received in regard to it. The president of ​the church replied: “The voice of the Spirit is that David H. Smith be released. He is in mine hand.”
2. When the quorum of the twelve were presented the question was again asked: Has any information been received concerning said quorum? President Joseph Smith replied: “The voice of the Spirit is that E. C. Briggs be sustained for the present, J. W. Briggs and Z. H. Gurley are in your hands, to approve or disapprove as wisdom may direct. Be merciful, for to him that is merciful shall mercy be shown.”
3. On the 14th of the month, the eighth day of the session, when the mission of Elder E. C. Briggs was being considered, the following instruction was presented as the will of the Lord concerning the Chicago mission, over which some trouble had occurred:
4. “It is my will that my servants shall contend no longer one with another in regard to the Chicago branch. Let the branch be instructed to report to the conference of my saints of the district where the branch is located, the northern Illinois district. My servants, the elders, when passing to and from, should labor in the city when time and opportunity permit, that my people there may be strengthened and encouraged. And this should be agreeable to the elders in charge of the branch and the district, who should ever be willing to aid such ministration; and this should be without jealousy on either part.”
5. The following also received in 1885, is added by direction of conference of 1894:
“My servants of the seventy may select from their number seven; of which number those now being of the seven presidents of seventy shall be a part; who shall form the presidency of seven presidents of seventy as provided in my law.”
6. The foregoing was accepted as proper instruction, and the conference acted upon it as such; but the word received was not presented to the quorums, nor acted upon by them as is the usual custom of the church in regard to revelations received for the guidance of the church. It is given here as having been acquiesced in by all, in answer to prayer and decisive upon the matters referred to.
# The Doctrine and Covenants (1922 RLDS)/Section 118

SECTION 118.
Revelation given September 28, 1882.
Unto the Elders of my Church:
1. In asking of me, ye did well. I will hasten my work in its time. Ye can not now prosecute missions in many foreign lands, nor is it expedient that the elders of the first quorums be sent out of the land of America until the work, of the reorganization of my church be more fully established, and a greater unity of understanding between them be obtained. Nor is it expedient now to further fill up the quorums, except it be the elders, priests, teachers and deacons: which ye may do, as ye deem wise, by the direction of conference.
2. Continue the mission in Chicago until the April conference, when if it be found expedient it may he left in the charge of the authorities of the northern Illinois district.
3. It is my will that ye more fully honor and pay heed to the voice and counsel of the traveling ministry in spiritual things; which if ye do not, the office which they hold is not honored in my service, and the good they should do is made void.
4. If they approve themselves as righteous ministers, they shall be blessed; if they be found transgressors, or idle servants, ye shall not uphold them. But be not hasty in withdrawing your support from them, peradventure ye shall injure my work. Even now I am not well pleased with some, but space is granted for repentance and a renewal of diligence. Let no one deceive himself that he shall not account for his stewardship unto me.
Joseph Smith, By command of the Spirit.
