Craighill v. Lambert
In January, 1895, Mary Van Riswick, widow, and Avarilla Lambert, and Martina Carr, children and heirs, of John Van Riswick, deceased, filed a bill of complaint in the supreme court of the District of Columbia against the commission, under the Rock Creek Park act of September 27, 1890, seeking to restrain the said commission from assessing lands of the complainants for any portion of the cost and expenses of locating and improving the Rock Creek Park, for the alleged reason that the sixth section of the said act, under which the commission was acting in proposing to make such assessment, was unconstitutional and void.
The cause was so proceeded in that on September 30, 1895, the supreme court of the District rendered a final decree as prayed for in the bill. From that decree an appeal was taken to the court of appeals of the District of Columbia; and by that court, on March 17, 1896, the decree of the supreme court of the District was affirmed. The cause was then brought to this court on appeal.
Sol. Gen. Richards, for appellants.

WILL the WEAVER.
To its own proper Tune.
MOther, I am married, I wiſh that I had longer tarried, For the women they do ſwear, That the breeches they will wear.
Does ſhe ſcold or does ſhe riot, Or is ſhe coſtly in her diet, Sometimes to the tavern goes, With Will the weaver, and God knows.
Loving ſon, no more diſcover, But pray my dear go home and love her, Give my daughter what's her due, Let me hear no more of you,
​I'll give her gold, I'll give her diet, I'll give her all things if ſhe's quiet, But if in words ſhe does rebel, I'll take a ſtick and bang her well.
A neighbour coming for to meet him, Just on purpoſe for to vex him, I'll tell you what I ſaw juſt now, As I was coming unto you.
I ſaw your wife and Will the weaver, Mighty free and cloſs together, At the threſhold of the door, They both went in, I ſaw no more.
Home he went, all in a wonder, Knocking at the door like thunder, Who is there, the weaver cry'd? It is my huſband, you muſt hide.
Up the chimney ſtraight he ventur'd, In the houſe her huſband enter'd. Where have you been all the day, Come and tell me now I pray?
A ſpending of your gold and treaſure, All the day long out of meaſure, While I poor girl muſt ſtay at home, By myſelf to make my moan.
Loving Wive, no more affliction, But pray follow my direction, Bring me ſome beer, for I am dry, This to her he did reply.
​Then he did uſe his beſt endeavour, For to find out Will the weaver, Where he ſearch'd rooms & parlourround, Never a ſoul was to be found.
Up the chimney ſtraight he gazed, Where he ſtood like one amazed, Where he fpy'd the wretched ſoul, Perching on the chimney pole.
I am glad that I have found thee, I will neither hang nor drown thee, But I will ſtifle thee with ſmoke, Thus he thought, but nothing ſpoke.
Then he put on a rouzing fire, For to pleaſe his own deſire, His wife cry'd out with free good will, Huſband, do not the weaver kill.
Then quickly he put on more fuel, Then ſhe cry'd, My deareſt jewel, Since that I am your deareſt wife, Take him down and ſpare his life.
Off the chimney pole he took him, And ſo merrily he ſhook him, At every blow theſe words he ſpoke, Come no more to ſtop my ſmoke.
Never was a chimney-ſweeper, Half ſo black as Will the weaver, Face and hands, and clothes likewiſe, Sent him home with two black eyes.

The ROYAL BARBER.
LAST night as I lay on my bed, Such am'rous thoughts came in my head, About the ſcantiff that is ſpread, Thro' every ſtreet and corner,
​Now Dandy is the toaſt in town, But now by Jove his match is found, For there's one that will cut him down, I mean the Real Barber.
He is a luſty roving blade, And therefore maſter of his trade, He's found a knack to pleaſe the maid, Surpaſſes every Barber.
Sometimes to Vauxhall he does go, Among the Ladies makes a ſhow, His am'rous air, his bows to Chloe, Says Madam, here's the Barber.
The Ladies much admires of him, He is ſo airy, bright and gem, Beſides their hair does neatly trim, In the new faſhion'd order.
His working tools they are ſo neat, He does his bus neſs ſo compleat, That Lady Betty and Miſtreſs Kate, Calls him the Real Barber.
A pretty Miſs juſt in her teens, Chanc'd to ſpy him on the green. And his performance ſhe had ſeen, With a Lady in the arbour,
To try his ſkill ſhe's fully bent, And for him into a room ſhe ſent, Telling him her whole intent, He was the Real Barber.
​His inſtruments he did prepare, And ſtraightway dreſs'd & trim'd her hair, Which made the Lady for to ſwear, He was the Skilful Barber.
All other Ladies they would tell, Above the reſt he bore the bell, His excellency did excel, More than other Barbers.
An innocent Lady in the town, With perfect age was ſtooping down, And hearing of his great renown, Said, ſhe muſt have the Barber.
Her hair to dreſs, and tooth to draw, Which lay into her under jaw, Swore that one bit ſhe cou'dn't chaw, Unleſs ſhe got the Barber.
The greaſy Doll, the brazen cook, Laſt Saturday's night in glaſs did look, Upon the ladle her oath ſhe took, That ſhe muſt have the Barber.
Now for to dreſs and trim her hair, With powder and pometum rare, A quarter's wages ſhe would ſpare, To ſee the Real Barber.
The Scullion and the Kitchen-maid, They're going crazy as they ſaid, For the want of this jovial blade, They call the Real Barber.
​The Chimney-ſweeper's daughter Prue, With Peggy, Polley, Nell, and Sue, The cobler's daughter, Nancy too, Said, ſhe muſt have the Barber.
Let Dandy then no more appear, But to the Barber all repair, For he can dreſs and trim their hair, And ſet it in right order.
Now to the laſſes he is kind, To humour them he does incline, Upon his door he has a ſign, To ſhow he is the Barber.

# Dick Cheney Letter 2007-07-21

A letter by Dick Cheney to his grandchildren written on 2007-07-21 when Cheney was serving as Acting President of the United States. This is the only written document known to have been signed by a serving Acting President of the United States.
Dear Kate, Elizabeth, Grace, Philip, Richard and Sam,
As I write this, our nation is engaged in a war with terrorists of global reach. My principal focus as Vice President has been to help protect the American people and our way of life. The vigilance, diligence and unwavering commitment of those who protect our Nation has kept us safe from terrorist attacks of the kind we faced on September 11, 2001. We owe a special debt of gratitude to the members of our armed forces, intelligence agencies, law enforcement agencies and others who serve and sacrifice to keep us safe and free.
As you grow, you will come to understand the sacrifices that each generation makes to preserve freedom and democracy for future generations, and you will assume the important responsibilities of citizens in our society. I ask of you as my grandchildren what I asked of my daughters, that you always strive in your lives to do what is right.
May God bless and protect you. Richard B. Cheney Acting President of the United States (Grandpa Cheney)

PREFACE.
My Dear Boys:
When I had finished the first volume of this series, telling of the doings of Dick Hamilton, the young millionaire, I was in some doubt as to just how you would like it. I hoped that you would be pleased with it, and interested in Dick and his chums, and what they did, but I could not be sure of it.
That you did care for it, I am now assured, and I am glad to be able to give you the second volume, relating some of Dick's experiences while at a leading military school.
You will recall that, after he had come into possession of his great fortune, by fulfilling certain conditions of his mother's will, there were still other things for him to do; matters that his mother had planned before her death. One of these was to make sure that her son would get a good military training.
Dick went to Kentfield Academy, but, to his surprise, he met with a very cold reception from the other cadets. Ray Dutton, not understanding that, in spite of our hero's wealth, he was a fine chap, influenced the other students against Dick, ​and, for a time, the young millionaire was very lonely in the big school. But he resolved to fight his own battles, and become popular in spite of his wealth.
Uncle Ezra brought him bad news, but it was the means of great good luck for Dick, though Grit, the bulldog, seemed to regard the crabbed old man as his master's enemy, and chased him from the school.
All this you will find set down in the present volume, and also an account of how Dick was instrumental in locating a long missing soldier, and how, when the society house of the Sacred Pig burned down, without any insurance being in force, Dick, with his wealth, came to the aid of the surprised cadets.
Yours sincerely,
Howard R. Garis.

​Caprasius (2), St., presbyter at Lérins (l’Isle de St. Honorat). Having a great desire to become a hermit, he distributed his goods to the poor and with St. Honoratus ultimately fixed on the isle of Lérins, described as a frightful desert where nothing was to be seen but serpents and other venomous creatures. There Honoratus built a monastery, into which he received many monks from the neighbouring countries. It was under the discipline of Caprasius and Honoratus, who are said to have made it the home of saints. Hilarius describes their new monastery as being distinguished for chastity, faith, wisdom, justice, truth. They also built in the island a church, of which Honoratus became minister. Caprasius died c. 430, and is commemorated on June 1. (Acta Sanctorum, Jun. 1, p. 77; Hilar. Arelat. de Vita S. Honorati, cap. ii. Patr. Lat. l. p. 1255; Eucherius Lugd. de Laud. Eremi, 42, Patr.

# Dictionary of Christian Biography and Literature to the End of the Sixth Century/Caius (3), pope

​Caius (3). Pope from Dec. 17 (16?) A.D. 283 (9 or 10 days after the death of his predecessor Eutychianus), to Apr. 22, A.D. 296, i.e. for 12 years 4 months 1 week (Pontifical, Bucher, p. 272), but only for 11 years according to Anastasius (c. 24) and to most Latins, and for 15 years according to Eusebius, who speaks of him as a contemporary (H. E. vii. 32; Chron. 284). He is probably the same as Caius the deacon, imprisoned with pope Stephen, A.D. 257 (Anastas. c. 24). Just as he was raised to the chair, the stern old Roman Carus died mysteriously in a thunderstorm in the East, and his profligate son Carinus succeeded to the empire at Rome. These events would seem to make a persecution, such as is assigned to this period by various martyr Acts, not in itself improbable, and though the Acts in question are untrustworthy (see Tillemont, iv. 565), we are hardly justified in taking Eusebius for a witness to the contrary, as far as concerns the West. The probability is confirmed by the delay of the funeral of Eutychianus till July 25, 284 (v. Rossi, ii. 378). The persecution is not represented as general, but as aimed at a few obnoxious devotees, and Caius does not appear as leading, accompanying, or inciting them, but only as exercising a fatherly supervision. Probably the persecution continued for some time under Diocletian. The early Pontifical, as well as Anastasius, makes Caius of Dalmatian origin and cousin to this emperor. The Acts of St. Susanna confirm this, but are untrustworthy (Till. iv. 760). Caius is said in the early Pontifical to have avoided persecution by hiding in the crypts. During his latter years the Church must have enjoyed peace. He is said by Anastasius to have established the 6 orders of usher, reader, exorcist, subdeacon, deacon, and presbyter, as preliminary stages necessary before attaining the episcopate, and also to have divided Rome into regions assigned to the deacons. He is said to have sent Protus and Januarius on a mission to Sardinia (Mart. Rom. Baron. Oct. 25). He died in peace according to the 6th-cent. Pontifical, and is not called a martyr by any one earlier than Bede and Anastasius. He was succeeded by Marcellinus. A decretal is ascribed to him. From a confusion between the calends of March and of May in the Mart. Hieron., Rabanus assigns his death, and Notker his burial, to Feb. 20 (Rossi, ii. 104). His commemoration on July 1 in the Mart. Hieron. is unexplained (ib. p. 105). He was the last of the 12 popes buried in the crypt of Sixtus, in the cemetery of Callistus (ib. p. 105). He is therefore mentioned again, Aug. 9, at which date a copy of the inscription set up by Sixtus III. was placed in the margin of the ancient martyrology (ib. pp. 33‒46).

# Dictionary of Christian Biography and Literature to the End of the Sixth Century/Caesarius (2), St., of Nazianzus

​Caesarius (2), St., of Nazianzus, physician, son of Gregory bp. of Nazianzus, brother of St. Gregory of the same place, and youngest of the family, born probably c. A.D. 330. His death occurred in A.D. 368 or 369. The name is simply a derivative from Caesar, originally adopted in compliment to the reigning family.
Authorities.—The funeral oration by his brother, St. Gregory Nazianzen (the 7th, in some ed. the 10th); two letters addressed by Gregory to Caesarius and one to the Praeses Sophronius (numbered 17, 18, 19, or, more commonly, 50, 51, 52), and a few lines in the Carmen de Vitâ Suâ of the same. Photius, Bibliotheca Cod. 210 (p. 168 ed. Dekker, Berolini, 1824).
Life.—According to the testimony of his brother, Caesarius owed much to the careful training received from his parents. He betook himself to Alexandria, "the workshop of every sort of education," for better instruction in physical science than he could obtain in Palestine. There he behaved as a model student, being very careful in the matter of companionship, and earnest in pursuit of knowledge, more especially of geometry and astronomy. This last-named science he studied, says his panegyrist, in such wise as to gain the good without the evil—a remark readily intelligible to those who are aware how deeply a fatalistic astrology was at that period associated with the study of astronomy.
Refusing a post of honour and emolument at Byzantium, he came home for a time, but returned to the court and was much honoured by Julian. There is a slight, but not perhaps irreconcilable, discrepancy between the funeral oration delivered by Gregory and the letter (17 or 51) which Gregory addressed to his brother. The oration seems to depict Caesarius as from the first spurning all offers of Julian, but the letter severely rebukes Caesarius for becoming a member of the imperial household, and taking charge of the treasury. Such a step is called a scandal in a bishop's son, and a great grief to his mother. Caesarius, however, finally avowed himself a Christian, and broke with Julian. His conduct, together with that of Gregory, caused Julian to exclaim, "Oh happy father! oh unhappy sons!" Under subsequent emperors, more especially under Valens, Caesarius more than regained his former honours, and became a quaestor of Bithynia. A remarkable escape from a terrible earthquake at Nicaea, apparently c. A.D. 367 or 368, to which many distinguished men fell victims, induced Caesarius, at his brother's suggestion, to arrange for retirement from worldly cares. He received Baptism, and soon after died.
The Πύστεις or Quaestiones (sive Dialogi ) de Rebus Divinis, attributed to this physician, may be safely ascribed to some Caesarius. But the name was not an uncommon one, and some considerations seem to shew that the author was not Caesarius of Nazianzus. Photius treats the supposed authorship as merely a current unexamined tradition, and the book refers to Maximus, who lived subsequently.

# Dictionary of Christian Biography and Literature to the End of the Sixth Century/Calandio or Calendio, bishop of Antioch

​Calandio or Calendio (Καλανδίων), succeeded Stephen II. as bp. of Antioch, A.D. 481. He owed his promotion to the episcopate to the emperor Zeno and Acacius, bp. of Constantinople; but the exact circumstances of his appointment are uncertain. There is a large body of evidence (not, however, to be admitted without grave question) that Calandio's election was of the same uncanonical character as that of his predecessor in the see [ Stephen II.]; and that being at Constantinople on business connected with the church of Antioch at the time of the vacancy of the see, he was chosen bishop, and ordained by Acacius; but the letter of pope Simplicius to Acacius, dated July 15, A.D. 482, conveying his sanction of Calandio's election (Labbe, Conc. iv. 1035), suggests a possible confusion between the election of Calandio and of Stephen II.
Calandio commenced his episcopate by excommunicating his theological opponents. He refused communion with all who declined to anathematize Peter the Fuller, Timothy ​the Weasel, and the Encyclic of Basiliscus condemning the decisions of the council of Chalcedon (Evagr. H. E. iii. 10; Niceph. H. E. xv. 28). He is reported to have endeavoured to counteract the Monophysite bias given to the Trisagion by Peter the Fuller in the addition of the words ὁ σταυρωθεὶς δἰ᾿ ἡμᾶς, by prefixing the clause Χριστὲ Βασιλεῦ (Theod. Lector. p. 556 b.) Calandio translated the remains of Eustathius, the banished bp. of Antioch, with the permission of Zeno, from Philippi in Macedonia, where he had died, to his own city—a tardy recognition of the falsehood of the charges against Eustathius, which had the happy result of reuniting to the church the remains of the party that still called itself by his name (Theod. Lector. p. 577; Theophanes, p. 114). Calandio fell into disfavour and was banished by the Emperor Zeno, at the instigation of Acacius, to the African Oasis, A.D. 485, where, probably, he died. The charge against him was that of having erased from the diptychs the name of Zeno, as the author of the Henoticon; and of having favoured Illus and Leontius in their rebellion, A.D. 484. But the real cause of his deposition was the theological animosity of Acacius, whom he had offended by writing a letter to Zeno accusing Peter Mongus of adultery, and of having anathematized the decrees of the council of Chalcedon (Evagr. H. E. ii. 16; Liberatus Diaconus, Breviar. c. xviii.; Gelasius, Ep. xiii. ad Dardan. Episc.; Labbe, iv. 1208‒1209, xv. ad Episc. Orient. ib. 1217). On his deposition, the victorious Peter the Fuller was recalled to occupy the see of Antioch.
