# Black Bess

TURPIN had his Black Bess, and she carried him well, As fame with her loud-breathing trumpet will tell; She knew not the lash, and she suffered no spur; A bold rider was all that was needed by her. That rider grew pallid and cautious with fear, There was danger around him and death in the rear; But he mocked at the legion of foes on his track, When he found himself firm on his bonnie steed's back.
She carried him on as no steed did before, She travelled as courser will never do more; Bounding on like the wild deer, she scarce left a trace, On the road or the turf, of her antelope pace. The pistol was levelled, what was it to Dick? The shot might be rapid, but Bess was as quick: "Ha! Ha!" shouted Turpin, "a horse and a man Are fair marks for your bullets to reach, if they can."
The mountain was high, and the valley was deep; She sprang up the hill and she flew down the steep; She came to the waste, rough with furrow and weed, But the brushwood and gap were no checks to her speed. She dashed through the stream and she climbed the broad bank, With no word to urge forward, no heel to her flank; The gate with its padlock might stand in her way; It took more than five bars to keep Black Bess at bay.
She kept her career up for many a league, With no slackening of pace and no sign of fatigue; Right onward she went till she staggered and dropped; But her limbs only failed when her heart-pulse had stopped. Her dare-devil rider lived on for a while, And told of her work with a triumphing smile: And the fame of Dick Turpin had been something less If he'd ne'er rode to York on his bonnie Black Bess.
Here's a health to her memory! shirk it who dare- If you love what is noble, pledge Turpin's brave mare; And the draught will be welcome, the wine will be good; If it have half the spirit and strength of her blood. May the steed that comes nigh her in courage and fire Carry rider more worthy to make its heart tire; Though she saved him, and died to prove what she could do, Yet her life was most precious by far of the two.
I live on the sea and I'm lord of a ship, That starts from her rest like a hound from the slip; Her speed is unrivalled, her beauty is rare; But her timbers are black as the highwayman's mare. From her keel-spanning beam to her sky-greeting spar She's as dark as a midnight without moon or star: Her name, boys! her name, you may easily guess, She is christened, right nobly, "The Bonnie Black Bess."

# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Jügler, Lorenz

Edition of 1892. No confirmation of this person's existence outside of Appletons' and derived sources has as yet been located, but there is also no verifiable source which states the person is one of Appletons' fictitious entries. Use this information with extra caution. Suspicious due to spelling errors in the title of two of his alleged literary works.
​JÜGLER, Lorenz (yu'-gler), German naturalist, b. in Detmold in 1692; d. in Halle in 1764. He united with the Moravian church, but was afterward converted to the Lutheran faith. He became preceptor to the children of the Prince of Reuss-Greitz, and professor of chemistry at the University of Göttingen, and afterward at Dortrecht. The young Prince of Reuss died in 1746 and left him a handsome legacy, which enabled him to travel. After a journey of three years in Europe he sailed for India in 1749, but was taken in the latter country as a spy both by the French and English, and in spite of his protestations was not allowed to proceed. Returning to Holland, he sailed for Boston, and travelled in North and South America for seven years, settling in Halle on his return in 1755. Among his many publications are “Geschichte und Zustaende der Deutschen in Amerika” (Leipsic, 1756); “Metallurgische Reise durch einen Theil von Neu England” (Halle, 1756); “Erste Urkunden der Geschichte der Amerikas” (2 vols., 1757); “Thesaurus geographicus” (1758); and “Flora Americanæ” (2 vols., 1763-'4).

# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Kalakaua, David

Edition of 1892.
​KALAKAUA, David, king of Hawaii, b. 16 Nov., 1836; d. in San Francisco, Cal., 20 Jan., 1891. He was the eldest son of a chief, and received a good education, including a familiar knowledge of the English language. When King Kamehameha died in 1872, he was a candidate for the throne, but his opponent, William Lunalilo, was elected by the people, and confirmed by the legislature. The latter died within a year, and in February, 1874, Kalakaua was elected to the vacant throne by a legislature that had been convened for the purpose. Ex-Queen Emma, the rival candidate, received six votes in the assembly, to thirty-six for him. The partisans of Queen Emma provoked disorders, which were quelled by the intervention of English and American marines. In the autumn of 1874 the king set out on a tour of the United States and Europe. He was conveyed to San Francisco in a steam frigate, placed at his disposal by the American government, arriving in that city on 28 Nov. On 10 July, 1887, after some political excitement, he signed a new constitution, limiting the prerogatives of the crown. — His wife, Kapiolani, b. 31 Dec., 1835, received a native education, and adheres to the national customs. She founded in Honolulu a home for the children of lepers. In the spring of 1887 she visited the United States, and in the summer was a guest of the queen of England on the occasion of the jubilee memorial. — His sister, Lydia Kamakaeha Liliuokalani, was nominated to be his successor by Kalakaua, who has no children. In 1879 the princess, who speaks the English language fluently, visited San Francisco. She is accomplished in music, and has composed some native hymns. She is married to Col. John O. Dominis, an American, b. in 1830, who was formerly commander-in-chief of the Hawaiian military forces and governor of the island of Oahu. The princess and her husband accompanied Queen Kapiolani on her visit to the United States in 1887. — The queen-dowager, Emma Kaleleonalani, b. in Honolulu, 2 Jan., 1836; d. there, 25 April, 1885, was the granddaughter of an Englishman who married a chiefess of high rank, and was adopted by Dr. Rooke, an English physician, settled in the islands, who had married her aunt. She received a good English education, and married King Kamehameha on June 19, 1856. In 1865-'6, after the death of her husband, she visited the United States and Europe. Her only child died at the age of four years. She founded the Kamehameha hospital in Honolulu, and left her large estate in trust for the benefit of the Anglican mission.
# Appletons' Cyclopædia of American Biography/Kalb, Johann de

Edition of 1892.
KALB, Johann de, soldier, b. in Huttendorf, Bavaria, 29 July, 1721; d. near Camden, S. C., 19 Aug., 1780. He served in the French army in 1743 as lieutenant, and in 1747 he was promoted to the rank of brigadier-general under Marshal Broglie. He took part in the Seven Years' war, and obtained the order of military merit in 1761. After peace was declared he married the daughter of a millionaire of Holland. In 1768 he visited the American colonies as a secret agent of the French government. He was a brigadier in the French service when he made an engagement with Franklin and Silas Deane to join the Continental army. He accordingly accompanied Lafayette to America, arriving in the Bay of Georgetown on 3 June, 1777, and in that year was appointed by congress to be major-general. He began his service under the immediate command of Washington, and was with him at Valley Forge. He served in New Jersey and Maryland until April, 1780, when he was sent to re-enforce Gen. Lincoln, but arrived too late. When Cornwallis heard news of the gathering storm on the borders of South Carolina, he decided to join Lord Rawdon, who was stationed at Camden. He arrived there 13 Aug., and found to his dismay that many of the British troops were ill, and the whole force would amount to but little. He therefore planned to march forward and meet Gen. Gates before the arrival of the Virginia troops, which were known to be advancing. Gen. Gates was joined by Kalb, who commanded the Delaware and Maryland forces, and they decided to ​attack Camden. While the American army was approaching, Cornwallis struck his tents and marched toward Rugeley's. Neither party was aware of the close proximity of its opponent until the advanced guards met, about two o'clock in the morning. In the battle that ensued soon after sunrise, Kalb commanded on the American right and was driving his adversary, Lord Rawdon, before him, when the defeat of our left wing exposed his flank and rear to the assaults of Webster and Tarleton. Kalb was thus attacked on all sides, but remained during the whole encounter, fighting bravely to the last. Bareheaded and dismounted, with sword in hand, he engaged in one personal encounter after another, encouraging his men with his voice as well as his example, till he had received eleven wounds. His lieutenant, Du Buysson, saved him from instant death. He died three days afterward, and was buried at Camden. A marble monument was erected to his memory by the citizens of that town, the corner-stone being laid by Gen. Lafayette in 1825. On 16 Aug., 1886, a statue of Kalb, executed in Rome by Ephraim Keyser, was placed in front of the court-house in Annapolis, Md., the address being delivered by Thomas F. Bayard, of Delaware. See “Leben des amerikanischen Generals, Johann Kalb,” by Friedrich Kapp (Stuttgart, 1862; English translation, New York, 1870).

# Bavon Beach series: The Northeastern Beach Tiger Beetle

Bavon Beach series: The Northeastern Beach Tiger Beetle
Mike Drummond And the northeastern beach tiger beetle is listed, uh, mainly because of, uh, low numbers lost through the Atlantic seaboard area.
MIKE DRUMMOND
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
Mike Drummond Um, its range is from Massachusetts to Virginia.
Mike Drummond Uh, currently it's only found in two populations in Massachusetts, uh, and majority of its, uh, existing populations are here in Virginia on the Chesapeake Bay.

Mike Drummond So this site, it is very significant to us, um, and it also lies adjacent to the uh, the uh, Newpoint Comfort, uh, Preserve Area, which is state property, and that's another important beetle population to us.
Mike Drummond The northeastern beach tiger beetle's only as an adult out basically from about mid-June to, uh, into August.
Mike Drummond Um, it lives primarily—its- most of its life as a larval stage in the inner tidal zone.
Mike Drummond Uh, its exists there from two to three years, uh, hence the reason why it's prone to, uh, severe loss due to any type of storm events or things like that.
Mike Drummond The adult's kind of a sandish color, uh, it has some markings on its back, uh, it's pretty well set-up to blend in with the sand environment it's on.
Mike Drummond The adults are probably no more than about an inch in length.
Mike Drummond One of the things we're looking at here is it, we can't stem the increasing levels here in the Chesapeake Bay, which is basically increasing higher than even the Atlantic Ocean is.
Mike Drummond So, we've gotta slow down the erosion rates, give the beetle a chance to, uh, adjust and move to new habitats that will be created over time as others basically disappear.
