April Term, 1773.
The Lessee of the Proprietary versus Ralston.
Plaintiff shewed a title in himself to the Province of Pennsylvania, and then rested.
Defendant shewed a deed for one thousand acres of land–also a warrant to himself, and two others, to take up three thousand acres of land, which included the lands in controversy—also a power of attorney to David Lloyd to take care of said land, and an account of the expences of survey.
Defendant having shewn title in a third person, as he conceived, moved for a nonsuit, and as authorities cited Bull. Nisi. Prius, Instit. Leg. title Eject.
Plaintiff’s Council insisted to know, whether the Defendant had gone through all his evidence; and said that he was not entitled to the opinion of the Court till then upon his title in a third person.
But the Court determined contra: and then gave their opinion, that as the Defendant’s deed was a conditional deed upon the face of it, he was not intitled to a nonsuit.
The Plaintiff’s Council then contended, that they had a right to demur to the Defendant’s evidence. This was opposed by the Defendant’s Council, who insisted they had a right to go through their evidence, before the Demurrer was allowed. Of which opinion the Court also was: and the Defendant proceeded with his evidence, among which was a letter from William Penn, the first, acknowledging this sale and grant.
The Plaintiff afterwards offered a subsequent letter of William Penn’s, declaring the grant to be conditional; and, as this condition was not performed, the grantees should not have the land.
This the Defendant’s Council opposed, on the principle, that no man could create evidence for himself.
Tilghman. Letters are like conversation when the whole must be given.
Dickinson, on the same side, offered these authorities: 12 Vin. 101. An old manuscript evidence. Id. 247. The declaration of a woman ​ present at the birth of a child in proof of pedigree. 3 Mod. 36. to shew that the Defendant’s rule of evidence is too strict.
Upon full argument, the Court over-ruled the evidence, upon the principle contended for by the defendant’s council.
Some of the defendant’s council, the next day, offered some of Doctor Coxe’s letters to David Lloyd, shewing that the condition had been complied with.
But the Court adhered to their opinion, and over-ruled these letters also.–A verdict passed for the plaintiff, by which the sense of the Jury was, that the non performance of conditions of settlement, did not void the grant.

# The Props assist the House

The Props assist the House Until the House is built And then the Props withdraw And adequate, erect, The House support itself And cease to recollect The Auger and the Carpenter — Just such a retrospect Hath the perfected Life — A past of Plank and Nail And slowness — then the Scaffolds drop Affirming it a Soul.
# The Ramayana/Book II/Canto CXIX: The Forest

When Anasúyá, virtuous-souled, Had heard the tale by Sítá told, She kissed the lady's brow and laced Her loving arms around her waist. 'With sweet-toned words distinct and clear Thy pleasant tale has charmed mine ear, How the great king thy father held That Maiden's Choice unparalleled. But now the sun has sunk from sight, And left the world to holy Night. Hark! how the leafy thickets sound With gathering birds that twitter round: They sought their food by day, and all Flock homeward when the shadows fall. See, hither comes the hermit band, Each with his pitcher in his hand: Fresh from the bath, their locks are wet, Their coats of bark are dripping yet. Here saints their fires of worship tend, And curling wreaths of smoke ascend: Borne on the flames they mount above, Dark as the brown wings of the dove. The distant trees, though well-nigh bare, Gloom thickenend by the evening air, And in the faint uncertain light Shut the horizon from our sight. The beasts that prowl in darkness rove On every side about the grove, And the tame deer, at ease reclined Their shelter near the altars find. The night o'er all the sky is spread, With lunar stars engarlanded, And risen in his robes of light The moon is beautifully bright, Now to thy lord I bid thee go: Thy pleasant tale has charmed me so: One thing alone I needs must pray, Before me first thyself array: Here in thy heavenly raiment shine, And glad, dear love, these eyes of mine.' Then like a heavenly Goddess shone Fair Sítá with that raiment on. She bowed her to the matron's feet, Then turned away her lord to meet. The hero prince with joy surveyed His Sítá, in her robes arrayed, As glorious to his arms she came With love-gifts of the saintly dame. She told him how the saint to show Her fond affection would bestow That garland of celestial twine, Those ornaments and robes divine. Then Ráma's heart, nor Lakshman's less, Was filled with pride and happiness, For honours high had Sítá gained, Which mortal dames have scarce obtained. There honoured by each pious sage Who dwelt within the hermitage, Beside his darling well content That sacred night the hero spent. The princes, when the night had fled, Farewell to all the hermits said, Who gazed upon the distant shade, Their lustral rites and offerings paid. The saints who made their dwelling there In words like these addressed the pair: 'O Princes, monsters fierce and fell Around that distant forest dwell: On blood from human veins they feed, And various forms assume at need, With savage beasts of fearful power That human flesh and blood devour. Our holy saints they rend and tear When met alone or unaware, And eat them in their cruel joy: These chase, O Ráma, or destroy. By this one path our hermits go To fetch the fruits that yonder grow: By this, O Prince, thy feet should stray Through pathless forests far away.' Thus by the reverent saints addressed, And by their prayers auspicious blessed,  He left the holy crowd: His wife and brother by his side, Within the mighty wood he hied. So sinks the Day-God in his pride  Beneath a bank of cloud.

# The Ragtime Violin

[1st verse:]
Mister Brown, Mister Brown had a violin
Went around, all around with his violin
Lawdy, how he play'd it, sway'd it, made it moan so beautiful
Anna Lize, Anna Lize heard his violin
Roll'd her eyes, roll'd her eyes at his violin
Lawdy, how he lov'd her, turtledoved 'er
When Anna would cry
[Refrain:]
Fiddle up, fiddle up on your violin
Lay right on it, rest your chin upon it
Doggone you better begin
And play an overture upon your violin
Hurry up, hurry up with your violin
Make it sooner, don't you stop to tune 'er
Fid, fid, fid, fiddle the middle of your ragtime violin
[2nd verse:]
Mister Brown, Mister Brown at a fancy ball
Sat around, sat around, sat around the hall
Wouldn't take a chance to dance because the band was terrible
Anna Lize, Anna Lize hit upon a plan
Roll'd her eyes, roll'd her eyes at the leaderman
Took his fiddle down to Mister Brown to
Just kiss him and cry

# The Ragtime Soldier Man

[1st verse]:
My lovin' baby
My lovin' baby
You better dry your eyes and don't be grievin'
You got to stop it
You better drop it
I told you once before
I've got to go to war
Now don't you worry
I've got to hurry
Because the regiment will soon be leavin'
Don't you feel blue
Because I'm goin' off to war
[chorus]:
I've got to go
I've got to go
A soldier man I've got to be
I've got to go
I've got to go
I hear the bugle calling me
Oh, my hon', hurry up, hurry up
Get my gun, hurry up, hurry up
Can't you see that I've got to fight for love and liberty
My honey dear, my honey dear
You better save your sympathy
If you should hear
If you should hear
I got too near the enemy
Kindly carry me back to old Virginia
And when you get me there
Say a prayer for your Ragtime soldier man
[2nd verse]:
The time is flying
I'm kind o' sighing
'Cause I must say goodbye to my home cooking
There's no denying
I leave you crying
But don't you worry, hon'
As long as I can run
They'll never find me
They'll be behind me
But if they shoot me, dear, while I'm not looking
If so, you'll know
That I was wounded comin' home

# The Raggedy Man

O THE RAGGEDY MAN! He works fer Pa; An' he's the Goodest man ever you saw! He comes to our house every day, An' waters the horses, an' feeds `em hay; An' he opens the shed---an' we all ist laugh When he drives out our little old wobble-ly calf; An' nen---ef our hired girl says he can--- He milks the cow fer `Lizabuth Ann.---  Ain't he a' awful good Raggedy Man?  Raggedy! Raggedy! Raggedy Man!
W'y, The Raggedy Man---He's ist so good He splits the kindlin' an' chops the wood; An' nen he spades in our garden, too, An' does most things `at boys can't do.--- He clumbed clean up in our big tree--- An' shooked a' apple down fer me--- An' nother'n too, fer `Lizabuth Ann--- An' nother'n, too, fer The Raggedy Man.---  Ain't he a' awful kind Raggedy Man?  Raggedy! Raggedy! Raggedy Man!
An' The Raggedy Man, he knows most rhymes An'n tells `em ef I be good, sometime; Knows `bout Giunts, an' Griffuns, an' Elves, An' the Squidgicum-Squees `at swallers therselves! An', wite by the pump in our pasture-lot, He showed me the hole `at the Wunks is got, `At live `way deep in the ground, an' can Turn into me, er `Lizabuth Ann!  Ain't he a funny old Raggedy Man?  Raggedy! Raggedy! Raggedy Man!

Militants, Notice!
   Organize! Join the Trade Union Educational League. This is a system of informal committees throughout the entire union movement, organized to infuse the mass with revolutionary understanding and spirit. It is working for the closer affiliation and solidification of our existing craft unions until they have been developed into industrial unions. Believing that all workers should stand together regardless of their social or other opinions, it is opposed to the common policy of radical and progressive-minded workers quitting the trade unions and starting rival organizations based upon ideal principles. That policy is one of the chief reasons why the American labor movement is not further advanced. Its principal effects are to destroy all radical organization in the old unions and to leave the reactionaries in undisputed control.
   The Trade Union Educational League is in no sense a dual union, nor is it affiliated with any such organization. It is purely an educational body of militants within existing mass unions, who are seeking through the application of modern methods to bring the policies and structure of the labor movement into harmony with present day economic conditions. It bespeaks the active cooperation of all militant union workers. For further details apply to the

# The Sunset Storm

First published September 1842
The summer sun has sunk to rest Below the green-clad hills, And through the skies, careering fast, The storm-cloud rides upon the blast, And now the rain distills! The flash we see, the peal we hear, With winds blent in their wild career, Till pains the ear. It is the voice of the Storm King Riding upon the Lightning's wing, Leading his bannered hosts across the darkened sky, And drenching with his floods the sterile lands and dry.
The wild beasts to their covers fly, The night birds flee from heaven, The dense black clouds that veil the sky, Darkening the vast expanse on high, By streaming fires are riven. Again the tempest's thunder tone, The sounds from forests overthrown, Like trumpets blown Deep in the bosom of the storm, Proclaim His presence, in its form, Who doth the sceptre of the concave hold, Who freed the winds, and the vast clouds unrolled.
The storms no more the skies invest, The winds are heard no more; Low in the chambers of the west, Whence they arose, they've sunk to rest; The sunset storm is o'er. The clouds that were so wildly driven Across the darkened brow of heaven Are gone, and Even Comes in her mild and sober guise, Her perfumed air, her trembling skies, And Lama, with her star-gemmed, glorious crown, From her high throne in heaven, upon the world looks down.

Mr. G. E. Brown
Mr. George Edward Brown, F.I.C., Hon. F.R.P.S, who was for 30 years since 1904 editor of the British Journal of Photography and the British Journal Almanac, died at his home in Surbiton on Thursday in his sixty-second year. After being educated at Dorchester Grammar School and Birmingham University, where he was Tangye Scholar in Chemistry, he became an analytical chemist to the Great Western Railway Company at their works in Swindon in 1899. Mr. Brown possessed a through and extensive knowledge of photographic theory and practice, and under his guidance the British Journal has attained its present position among photographic journals. He was an expert linguist, and was responsible for many translations from French and German, not only for his own journal but for other publications. He was the author of a treatise on photographic copyright and a translation from the French on the theory and practice of photography; also of “A Book of R. L. Stephenson” and a handbook of instruction in indexing. He married, in 1911, Helen, daughter of Mr. Alfred Ellerton; she survives him with two daughters.
