# Eminent Chinese of the Ch'ing Period/Wan Ssŭ-hsüan

Layout 2
​WAN Ssŭ-hsüan 萬斯選 (T. 公擇, H. 白雲先生), July 9, 1629–1694, Sept. 28, scholar, native of Yin-hsien, Chekiang, was the fifth son of Wan T'ai [q. v.] and a pupil of Huang Tsung-hsi [q. v.]. He declined to compete in the examinations, believing that genuine scholarship should be concerned with practical affairs and right human relationships rather than with books and theories. When he died, age sixty-six (sui), he was mourned by Huang Tsung-hsi who characterized him as a true scholar, one who put into practise the principles of Liu Tsung-chou [q. v.]. His grave and that of his brother, Wan Ssŭ-ch'ang, were repaired in 1935 when the villa, Po-yün chuang, was restored (see under Wan T'ai).

​WAN Ssŭ-ta 萬斯大 (T. 充宗, H. 跛翁, 褐夫先生), July 11, 1633–1683, Sept. 16, scholar, native of Yin-hsien, Chekiang, was the sixth son of Wan T'ai [q. v.] and father of Wan Ching [q. v.]. Like his brothers, he was a pupil of Huang Tsung-hsi [q. v.]. He took no interest in the examinations, conceiving it to be his duty to elucidate the Classics, particularly the three Rites (Record of Rites, Decorum Ritual, Institutes of Chou) and the Spring and Autumn Annals. His investigations on the latter filled 242 chüan, but these were all destroyed by fire in 1673. He began, in 1681, to retrieve this loss, but when he died two years later only 10 chüan of miscellaneous notes, 學春秋隨筆 Hsüeh Ch'un-ch'iu sui-pi, were completed. This work, together with four others on the Rites (學禮質疑 Hsüeh Li chih-i, 禮記偶箋 Li-chi ou-chien, 儀禮商 I-li shang and 周官辨非 Chou-kuan pien fei), were printed by his son under the general title Five Treatises on the Classics, 經學五書 Ching hsüeh wu-shu, whose preface is dated 1758. In addition to the above, Wan Ssŭ-ta compiled a genealogy of the Wan family, 萬氏家譜 Wan-shih chia-p'u, in 20 chüan.

​WAN Ssŭ-pei 萬斯備 (T. 允誠, H. 又庵), poet and calligrapher, was a native of Yin-hsien, Chekiang. He was the seventh son of Wan T'ai [q. v.], son-in-law of Li Yeh-ssŭ (T. 李鄴嗣, H. 杲堂, original ming 文胤), and a pupil of (T. Huang Tsung-hsi). He was chief assistant of Li Yeh-ssŭ in compiling the 甬上耆舊詩 Yung-shang ch'i-chiu shih, in 30 chüan—an anthology of poems by Yin-hsien authors. Wan Ssŭ-pei is credited with having preserved the works of Liu Tsung-chou [q. v.] after the latter became a martyr to the Ming cause. His own collected verse was entitled 深省堂詩集 Shên-hsing t'ang shih-chi, included in 1936 in the fourth series of the Ssŭ-ming ts'ung-shu (see under Chang Huang-yen).

​WAN T'ai 萬泰 (T. 履安, H. 悔庵), Mar. 19, 1598–1657, Nov. 11, scholar, native of Yin-hsien, Chekiang, was the son of Wan Pang-fu 萬邦孚 (T. 汝永, H. 瑞巖, 1554–1628). When he was nineteen (sui), he and his friend, Lu Fu 陸符 (T. 文虎, d. 1646 age 50 sui), studied under Liu Tsung-chou [q. v.]. They together became known as Lu-Wan—two pioneers who set a high standard of scholarship for the region in which they lived. In 1632 Wan T'ai made the friendship of Huang Tsung-hsi [q. v.], and his sons thereafter became the latter's pupils. He took the degree of chü-jên in 1636. When, in 1645, the Prince of Lu (see Chu I-hai) set up a temporary government at Shaohsing, Wan T'ai was offered a secretaryship in the Board of Revenue. He assisted in that capacity, but declined the title which went with the post. When Shaohsing fell in the following year he retired, indicating his determination never to enter political life by wearing the costume of a Taoist monk. He endeared himself to his contemporaries in a time of turmoil by burying his deceased friends and by saving others from death or imprisonment as political offenders. In 1656 he made a journey to Kwangtung, but died on his way back in the autumn of the following year. His literary collection, 續騷堂集 Hsü-sao t'ang chi, contains his writings for the period 1646 to 1650. Another collection, entitled 寒松齋稿 Han-sung chai kao, is reported in some catalogues, as well as some writings concerning his journey to Kwangtung, entitled 粵草 Yüeh-ts'ao.
Following are the names of his eight sons in the order of their ages; all became scholars and as such were styled the "Eight Dragons of the Wan Family" 萬氏八龍. The four younger became especially well-known.
Wan Ssŭ-nien 萬斯年 (T. 祖繩, 1617–1693) studied under Ch'ien Su-yüeh (see under Huang Tsung-hsi) in his youth.
​Wan Ssŭ-chên 萬斯禎 (T. 正符, 1622–1697), a student of the Changes, the Odes and the Spring and Autumn Annals.

In 1935 his villa, Po-yün chuang 白雲莊, was restored; the graves of Wan Ssŭ-chang and Wan Ssŭ-hsüan were repaired; and tablets of eighteen members of the Wan family were entered in the shrine. Since the Po-yün chuang is the place where Huang Tsung-hsi lectured, Huang's tablet and those of eighteen of his pupils were likewise entered in the shrine.

# Eminent Chinese of the Ch'ing Period/Ulgungga

Layout 2
​ULGUNGGA 烏爾恭阿 (H. 石琴主人), d. 1846, age about 70 (sui), prince and poet, was a descendant in the seventh generation of Jirgalang [q. v.]. The latter was the first Prince Chêng (鄭親王), but when his second son, Jidu [q. v.], inherited the princedom, the designation Chêng was altered to Chien 簡. In 1748 the princedom was taken from Jidu's branch of the family and given to Tê-p'ei [q. v.], a great-grandson of Jirgalang's brother. As Tê-p'ei had no heir the rank was given to Citungga 奇通阿 (d. 1763), a grandnephew of Jidu. In 1778 when Citungga's grandson, Jihana 積哈那 (H. 清修道人, 1758–1784), held the title, Emperor Kao-tsung, remembering the services of Jirgalang in founding the empire, decreed that the designation, Chêng, should be restored. Jihana had a bent for literature and possessed some skill as a painter. Ulgungga, eldest son of Jihana, became the third Prince Chêng in 1794 and the twelfth inheritor of Jirgalang's princedom. His long life as a prince was uneventful, but he performed well the duties belonging to his station. He accompanied Emperors Jên-tsung and Hsüan-tsung on some of their tours but, except for journeys to Mukden and Jehol, never went beyond the metropolitan area of Chihli. He spent his life collecting ​paintings and antiques, cultivating plants, and composing poems. A small collection of his verse, entitled 石琴室稿 Shih-ch'in-shih kao, was printed about the year 1845. The poems were written, for the most part, during his later years.
Two of Ulgungga's sons, Su-shun [q. v.] and Tuan-hua (see under Su-shun), were politically active at the close of the Hsien-fêng period and precipitated the coup d'état of Empress Hsiao-ch'in and I-hsin [qq. v.] in 1861.

# Durham v. United States/Dissent Blackmun

* Court Documents
* Case Syllabus
* Per Curiam Opinion of the Court
* Dissenting Opinion Blackmun
United States Supreme Court
401 U.S. 481
Durham v. United States
Mr. Justice BLACKMUN, dissenting.
This case is here on Durham's petition for certiorari after his appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit resulted in the affirmance of his conviction for a violation of 18 U.S.C. § 474. The Solicitor General now has suggested that the petitioner died on November 20, 1970, while his petition was pending but prior to this Court's taking any action upon it by way of grant or denial.
The petition is untimely. The Ninth Circuit's opinion was filed on November 12, 1969, and rehearing was denied by that court on March 5, 1970. A petition for certiorari to review the judgment of the court of appeals in a criminal case is timely, under our Rule 22(2), only when it is filed here within 30 days after the entry of the judgment or within such additional time, not exceeding 30 days, as is allowed by a Justice of this Court for good cause shown. The petition was filed only on September 26, 1970, and thus is out of time by more than five months.
Further, the situation is not one where the decedent possessed, and had exercised, a right of appeal to this Court, and then died while his appeal was pending. That contrasting and very different situation is the typical one that confronts the federal courts of appeals and with which the Eighth Circuit was concerned in Crooker v. United States, 325 F.2d 318 (1963), cited in the Court's per curiam opinion.
I would merely dismiss the decedent's petition for certiorari, rather than direct the dismissal of the indictment. This disposition seems to me appropriately to reflect the rulings of American Tobacco Co. v. United States, 328 U.S. 781, 815, n. 11, 66 S.Ct. 1125, 1141, 90 L.Ed. 1575 (1946); Singer v. United States, 323 U.S. 338, 346, 65 S.Ct. 282, 286, 89 815 n. 11, 66 S.Ct. 1125, 1141, 90 L.Ed. Johnson, 319 U.S. 503, 520 n. 1, 63 S.Ct. 1233, 1241, 87 L.Ed. 1546 (1943). In contrast, the dismissal of the indictment wipes the slate entirely clean of a federal conviction which was unsuccessfully appealed throughout the entire appeal process to which the petitioner was entitled as of right.
If, by chance, the suggestion of death has some consequence upon the survivor rights of a third party (a fact not apparent to this Court), the third party so affected is free to make his own timely suggestion of death to the court of appeals.

## Dissenting Opinion

    Blackmun
United States Supreme Court
401 U.S. 481
Durham v. United States
On Petition for Writ of Certiorari to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
No. 5928.
Not until several months after petitioner had seasonably filed a petition for rehearing from the Court of Appeals' affirmance of his conviction and he had been advised that he would be notified as soon as there was a ruling on that petition, was he informed (on further inquiry) of the court's denial thereof. Within three weeks of receiving that advice, he filed a petition for certiorari, but thereafter he died.
Held:
    1. On the facts of this case, waiver of Rule 22 (2)'s time requirement for filing a petition for certiorari is proper.
    2. Death pending direct review, whether by certiorari (as in this case) or appeal, of a federal criminal conviction abates all previous prosecutive proceedings.
Certiorari granted, 419 F. 2d 392; vacated and remanded to the District Court with directions to dismiss the indictment.
PER CURIAM.
