# Complete Encyclopaedia of Music/A/Arabian Music

Arabian Music. Lieutenant Lynch, in his "Expedition to the Dead Sea," gives a graphic description of some Arabian music, which the company enjoyed, and he endured, at one of their evening encampments, on the River Jordan, April 15, 1848. At Acre and at Tiberias, he had en-gaged some Arab chiefs to accompany the expedition. The name of one of these was Akil Agael Hassee, a border sheikh. Akil had a musical attendant, whom Lieutenant Lynch denominates Akil's bard, who sang Arabic love songs for their entertainment. id accompanied himself upon the "Rehabeh, or viol with one string." Lieutenant Lynch approached the sheikh's tent to hear more distinctly, and was politely invited to be seated upon a mat. The music, which was interrupted by his entrance, was continued, by request of his principal. Not a cough or an excuse was uttered. With a semicircular bow he preluded, and then added his voice. The melody was rude and barbarous, in the minor mode. The song was one of love, and though the tout ensemble gave evident pleasure to the sons of the desert, yet it presented no congruous expression of the subject to the ears and hearts of our American travellers.
After refreshments, Emir Nassir, another honorable Arab, surprised the listeners by snatching up the instrument and even excelling the professional bard in his performance, both vocal and instrumental. The music, however, was of a similar character with that of the first player, of a wailing, dolorous tone, which seemed more suitable for a funeral than for a lively scene of living love and beauty.
The account is interesting to musicians, strongly contrasting the musical instruments and vocal cultivation of civilized and Christian nations with those savage tribes which roam over Palestine and the adjacent countries.
# Complete Encyclopaedia of Music/A/Apycni

Apycni. A collective name given by the Greeks to those three sounds in their scale, or system, which, separately, were called proslambanomenos, nete symnemenon, and nete hyperboloeon. These notes received the common appellation of apycni, the settee of which is, uncrowded, because they did not, on either side, touch, or press upon the compact intervals.

# Complete Encyclopaedia of Music/A/Aprili, Giuseppe

Aprili, Giuseppe, born about the year 1764, was a soprano singer. He sang at many of the theatres of Italy and Germany, and finally settled at Naples. Dr. Burney heard him there in 1770, and says that he had a weak and unequal voice, but was perfectly in tune and had an excellent shake. He was a good singing master, and a collection of his solfeggi are published in London, which are still much used. He was one of the masters of Cimarosa. Signor Aprili, in his solfeggi, has attended to the practical part of singing more than the theoretical. He first gives lessons for the intervals, both quick and slow, and the divisions most frequently met with. His first solfeggi are in a cantabile style, and well adapted to form the voice. They are intermixed with lessons that are quicker, but they still pre-servo the same character. They rise by degrees to higher execution, and are throughout elegant and graceful. They are of great compass, and contain much execution, and are of a kind most likely to be beneficial to a singer.
# Complete Encyclopaedia of Music/A/Araja, Francisco

Araja, Francisco, born at Naples in 1700, was chapel-master at St. Petersburg, in the service of the Empress Catharine. He composed several operas, and among others "Cephalo e Procris," in 1755 ; this was the first opera in the Russian language : after the representation of it, the empress made him a present of a magnificent sable skin. Araja amassed a handsome fortune, and retired to Bologna in 1759. His style was rapid, brilliant, and ingenious; his subjects were often beautiful, always varied, and never insignificant; his melody was pure and sweet, and in subordination to the voice. He not only did honor to his art by his talents and learning, but rendered it an object of general attention and interest. The names of some of Araja's operas are as follows : "Berenice," at Florence ; "Amore per regnante," at Rome ; "Abiatare," "Semiramis," "Scipione," "Arsace," and "Seleuco," at St. Petersburg.

# Cintrone v. Hertz Truck Leading/Concurrence Proctor

* Court Documents
* Case Syllabus
* Opinion of the Court
PROCTOR, J. (concurring).
I agree that the lessor of a new or used vehicle should be subject to strict liability for defects existing in the vehicle at the time the lessee acquires possession. I cannot, however, agree with that part of the majority opinion which states that the lessor will be liable for any defect which arises during the leasing period where such period is for an extended length of time.
I understand that there is a developing practice for corporations and individuals to lease new vehicles for a year or more, and themselves provide for maintenance. It would seem that in such a situation the lessor's liability should be no greater than that of the manufacturer of the vehicle -- liability for injuries caused by a defect which existed when the vehicle left the manufacturer's control. Jakubowski v. Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing, 42 N.J. 177, 182 (1964). The lessor's liability in this type of lease, which is so different from the one before us in the present case, should not be determined now.
The record here indicates that there was an agreement between the lessor and lessee that the lessor would be responsible for all maintenance and repairs. In short, the lessor assumed the obligation to keep the vehicle in a safe running condition. To that end the lessor regained control of the vehicle at the end of each day when it was "gassed up" at its garage. Apparently, the lessee's only obligation was to notify the lessor of known defects. In these circumstances, the situation is the same as if the vehicle were leased anew each day from the lessor. Thus I think a new warranty of fitness for use on the highways came into being at the beginning of each working day. I therefore disagree with that part of the dissenting opinion which separates the original lease from the servicing [NJ461] agreement. To my mind they were integral components of a single agreement and inseparable.
There was evidence in the case (although its credibility is somewhat suspect) that the brakes were defective for several days prior to the accident, and that the plaintiff so notified the lessor on three occasions. From this and other evidence set out in the majority opinion the jury could have found that there was a defect in the brakes at the beginning of the working day on which the accident happened; and that the defect caused the accident resulting in plaintiff's injuries. Thus the warranty issue should have been submitted to the jury. I agree with the majority's discussion [A784] of contributory negligence. I therefore concur in the result reached by the majority.

# Collier's New Encyclopedia (1921)/Rámáyana

Edition of 1921; disclaimer.
​RÁMÁYANA, the name of one of the two great epic poems of ancient India (the other, see Mahabharata). Its subject matter is the history of Ráma, and its reputed author is Valmiki, who is said to have taught his poem to the two sons of Ráma. But though this latter account is open to doubt, it seems certain that Valmiki was a real personage, and, moreover, that the Rámáyana was the work of one single poet—not, like the Mahábhárata, the creation of various epochs and different minds. As a poetical composition the Rámáyana is therefore far superior to the Mahábhárata; and it may be called the best great poem of ancient India. Whereas the character of the Mahábhárata is cyclopædic, its main subject matter overgrown by episodes of the most diversified nature, the Rámáyana has but one object in view, the history of Ráma. Its episodes are rare, and restricted to the early portion of the work, and its poetical diction betrays throughout the same finish and the same poetical genius. Whether we apply as the test the aspect of the religious life, or the geographical and other knowledge displayed in the two works, the Rámáyana appears the older. It is the chief source whence our information of the Ráma incarnation of Vishnu is derived. The Rámáyana contains professedly 24,000 epic verses, or "Slokas," in seven books—some 48,000 lines of 16 syllables. The text which has come down to us exhibits, in different sets of manuscripts, such considerable discrepancies that there are practically two recensions. The one is more concise in its diction and has less tendency than the other to that kind of descriptive enlargement of facts and sentiments which characterizes the later poetry of India; it often also exhibits grammatical forms and peculiarities of an archaic stamp, where the other studiously avoids that which must have appeared to its editors in the light of grammatical difficulty. There can be little doubt that the former is the older and more genuine text.

RUTLEDGE, JOHN, an American jurist, brother of Edward; born in Charleston, S. C., in 1739. He was a member of the South Carolina convention of 1774 that decided to take part in the Continental Congress, and a delegate to the latter body in 1775; chairman of the committee that framed the South Carolina constitution in 1776, and elected that year president of the new State government and Commander-in-Chief of the militia. In 1778 he was again elected governor of South Carolina. In 1780, when Charleston was captured by the British, he retired to North Carolina, joining Greene's army; but resumed the governorship at the close of the war. In 1782 he was elected to Congress, and re-elected in 1783. He was a member of the convention that framed the Constitution of the United States. In July, 1795, he was appointed by Washington Chief Justice of the Supreme Court and served the August term of that year; but his mental faculties failing, he was not confirmed by the Senate in December. He died in Charleston, July 23, 1800.
# Collier's New Encyclopedia (1921)/Sacramento (city)

Edition of 1921; disclaimer.
SACRAMENTO, a city, capital of the State of California, and county-seat of Sacramento co.; at the confluence of the Sacramento and American rivers, at the head of low water navigation, 96 miles N. E. of San Francisco. It is built on a broad, low plain and has strong levees as a protection against floods. It has a semi-tropical climate, and vegetation is most luxuriant. The city has about 200 manufacturing establishments, and the combined annual output exceeds $75,000,000 in value. There is a large variety of industries, the most important including the manufacture of agricultural implements, carriages and wagons, pottery, woolen goods, machinery, furniture, etc. Here are also the Southern Pacific railroad shops which cover 25 acres of ground and employ about 4,000 men. The convenient location of Sacramento in the center of a rich agricultural region gives it a large trade with the interior of the State. There are a number of National and State banks, and numerous daily and weekly periodicals. The assessed property valuation is nearly $136,400,000.
Public Interests.—The streets are well laid out, and mostly lighted by electricity. The State capitol, which stands in a beautiful plaza covering 30 acres, was finished in 1869 at a cost of about $2,500,000. Within the plaza are the State Printing office and the Exposition Building of the State Agricultural Society. In the latter the resources of the State are annually exhibited. There are over 1,000 acres of parks, and 98 miles of paved streets. The thirteen banks in 1920 had deposits of $66,000,000. The clearings in 1919 were for $300,000,000. There are thirty-six school buildings, with an enrollment of over 13,000 pupils. The other noteworthy buildings include the court house, United States Government building, city hall, Hall of Justice, Agricultural Pavilion, City Library, Crocker Art Gallery, the California State bank, Fort Sutter (re-built), the Sacramento Institute, Christian Brothers' College, California State Library, Mater Misericordia and Southern Pacific Railroad Hospitals, Children's Day Home, and many charitable homes.
History.—Capt. John A. Sutter built a fort here in 1839, but the city was not settled till 1848, after the discovery of gold. The first house was built in 1849.
Sacramento was made the State capital in 1854, and received its city charter in 1863. It has suffered severely twice from fire and twice from inundation. Pop. (1910) 44,696; (1920) 65,908.
# Collier's New Encyclopedia (1921)/Ruth

RUTH, a canonical book now placed in the Hagiographa of the Old Testament, between the Song of Solomon and the Lamentations. The English Bible, following the Septuagint and the Vulgate, arranges it between the Books of Judges and Samuel. During the times of the Judges, a certain Elimelech, of Bethlehem-Judah, i. e., of Bethlehem in Judah, as distinguished from Beth-le-hem in Zebulun (Josh. xix. 15), to escape a famine then raging, went to Moab with his wife Naomi, and his two sons, Mahlon and Chilion, who married two Moabitesses, Orpah and Ruth. There all the male members of the family died, and the widowed Naomi, hearing that the famine was over, thought of returning home. Orpah, after starting with her, was prevailed on to return; Ruth, the heroine of the narrative, could not be persuaded to go back, and having, after reaching Bethlehem, gone into the fields as a gleaner, she attracted the notice of Boaz, an aged kinsman, with
whom she made a romantic marriage, ultimately becoming the great-grand-mother of King David and an ancestress of Jesus Christ (Matt. i. 5). The Book of Ruth is a beautiful idyllic composition. It was penned not earlier than the time of David (ch. iv. 22), and probably much later, for there had been time for customs existent in the days of Boaz and Ruth to change. The narrative is in pure Hebrew, but there are Aramseanisms in the dialogues. Most critics place its composition before, but Ewald during, the Exile. Its canonicity has never been doubted.

He was lieutenant-colonel of the Charleston Artillery which aided in expelling the British from the island of Port Royal in 1779; and was captured in 1780 and imprisoned for a year in St. Augustine. At the
conclusion of hostilities, he resumed the practice of law in Charleston; and was elected governor of South Carolina in 1798. He died in Charleston, S. C., Jan. 23, 1800.
