# Domestic Encyclopædia (1802)/Ebony

Edition of 1802.
​EBONY, an exceedingly hard and heavy wood, imported from the East Indies: it admits of being very highly polished, for which reason it is used chiefly for veneering cabinets, in Mosaic work, &c.
Ebony is of various colours, namely, black, red, and green; but the first is that most generely known and used. Cabinet-makers, inlayers, and others, frequently substitute pear-tree, and other wood, for ebony, by giving the former a black colour; which some effect by washing it in a hot decoction of gall-nuts, and after it is dry, by rubbing it over with ink, and polishing it by means of a hard brush and a little wax: others heat, or almost burn their wood till it become black, so that it acquires such a degree of hardness, that, when properly polished, it can with difficulty be distinguished from genuine ebony.
# Domestic Encyclopædia (1802)/Ear

Edition of 1802.
​EAR, the organ of hearing, or that part through which animals receive the impression of sounds.
This organ is extremely tender, and subject to a variety of ​disorders. If it be suffered to continue for any length of time without being cleaned, a species of wax accumulates in it; which, if not speedily removed, becomes tough and hard, diminishes the acuteness of hearing, and produces at length total deafness. An abundance of ear-wax, if thin and acrid, occasions pain, and is sometimes accompanied with a running in the ears: hence these parts should be strengthened by washing them every day with cold water; by which the sense of hearing will be considerably improved and preserved.
The most common disorder to which these organs are liable, is Deafness. Having already treated of that malady, we cannot avoid animadverting on the impropriety of employing the common ear-trumpets, which, though they may afford temporary aid, ultimately destroy that useful sense. Deaf persons, however, may still be enabled to receive sounds, and in a more perfect manner, through the teeth and other bones of the head, than by communicating such sounds to the ear by the common trumpet. A better method, therefore, may be attempted by means of an ivory tube, of a cylindrical form, from 12 to 24 inches in length, and from 1/4 to 1/2 of an inch in diameter. If it be hollow throughout, the lower extremity should be made much wider than the part placed between the front teeth, through which the necessary vibrations may thus be communicated to the internal ear.
To this may be added the distressing complaint, denominated the ear-ach, which usually proceeds from an inflammation, though it is sometimes occasioned by a sharp serous humour, stimulating the membrane that lines the canal of the ear: this painful affection also sometimes originates from insects that have penetrated the cavity of the ear; in which case, some sweet-oil should be introduced into the orifice, and the person ought to lie on that side of the body, the ear of which is the seat of complaint. By such means, the worm or insect may be extracted, and the pain consequently removed.
Loss of one ear is a punishment, inflicted by the 5th and 6th Edw. VI. c. 4, for fighting in a church-yard. By the 2 and 3 of the same king, c. 15, all persons who are convicted of combining and confederating together for raising the price of provisions, labour, &c. (if it be the third offence) are to lose one ear; beside being put into the pillory, and branded with perpetual infamy, or a fine of 40l.
# Domestic Encyclopædia (1802)/Earth-banks

Edition of 1802.
​EARTH-BANKS, in husbandry, are a kind of fence, very common in the vicinity of London, and in several other parts of England: where stones cannot easily be procured, they are preferable to other fences, both for soundness and durability.
The best method of making earth-banks is, to dig up some turfs in a spot abounding with grass, about a spit deep, and four or five inches thick: these are to be laid even on one side by a line, with the grass outwards, and on the back of them is to be placed another row of turf, leaving the space of one foot of solid ground on the outside, to prevent the bank from slipping in, lest any part of it should be deficient. On the outside of this, a ditch is to be dug; otherwise both the sides must be made with a slope two feet in depth, which, however, will be no detriment, as they will both produce pasture.
The soil dug out of the ditches, or from the slopes, should be thrown in between the two rows ​of turf, till the whole is made level, in a similar manner, and the bank is raised to the height of four or more feet, at the same time increasing the width of the foundation, in proportion to the height. As the bank ascends, both sides must be made to slope internally, so that the top shall be about 2 1/2 feet in width.
There is one caution necessary to be observed in constructing this kind of fence; that is, never to raise it during very dry seasons, because, if violent rains should follow, the earth contained between the sods would swell, burst out, and destroy the beauty and solidity of the bank. The top may be planted with quick, which, if repeatedly clipped, will grow very thick, and afford excellent shelter for cattle.

# Dictionary of National Biography, 1927 supplement/Eady, Charles Swinfen

​EADY, CHARLES SWINFEN, first Baron Swinfen (1851–1919), judge, was born at Chertsey 31 July 1851, the second son of George John Hady, surgeon, of Chertsey, by his wife, Laura Maria, daughter of Richard Smith, physician, of Chertsey. He was educated privately and at London University, where he took the degree of bachelor of laws in 1874, The year before this he had been articled to a Mr. Jenkins, solicitor, of Chertsey. He was admitted a solicitor in 1874 but soon determined to enter the higher branch of his profession. He was accordingly admitted as student of the Inner Temple in 1876 and was called to the bar in 1879. He read as a pupil in the chambers of (Lord) Cozens-Hardy, into whose shoes he was destined to step on more than one occasion. Eady had great capacity; his experience as a solicitor had given him confidence, and he speedily built up a good practice on the Chancery side. In 1893 Cozens-Hardy ‘went special’, thus creating a vacancy for a Q.C. in the court of Mr. Justice North. Eady at once applied for and obtained a silk gown, and quickly succeeded to Cozens-Hardy’s place. For the next six years he had the leading practice before Mr. Justice North. His arguments, although a little prolix, were lucid and learned, and he was always master of the facts of his case. In 1899, on Cozens-Hardy’s elevation to the bench, Eady himself ‘went special’, and in 1901 was selected by Lord Halsbury to fill the Chancery judgeship left vacant by Cozens-Hardy’s promotion to the Court of Appeal. In the same year he was knighted. Although he fell short of greatness Eady proved an admirable judge, being expeditious, learned, and courteous.
In 1913, on the resignation of Sir George Farwell, Eady was promoted to the Court of Appeal and created a privy councillor. In the Court of Appeal he rendered effective service in common law as well as Chancery cases. After the death of Lord Justice Kennedy in 1915, Eady frequently presided in the second Court of Appeal, and in May 1918, on Cozens-Hardy’s resignation, was selected to succeed him as master of the Rolls. In 1919 he was raised to the peerage as Baron Swinfen, of Chertsey. But his health soon began to fail, and after the Easter sittings of 1919 he was unable to resume his duties. In the autumn he resigned, and a few weeks later, on 15 November 1919, he died at his London house.
Eady married in 1894 Blanche Maude, younger daughter of Sydney Williams Lee, of Dereham, Putney Hill. He had one son and two daughters.

Bless

### God blesses people

God blesses his people when he bestows on them some gift temporal or spiritual (Genesis 1:22; 24:35; Job 42:12; Psalm 45:2; 104:24,35).

### People bless God

We bless God when we thank him for his mercies (Psalm 103:1,2; 145:1,2).

### Self blessing

A man blesses himself when he invokes God's blessing (Isaiah 65:16), or rejoices in God's goodness to him (Deuteronomy 29:19; Psalm 49:18).

### Praying for another

One blesses another when he expresses good wishes or offers prayer to God for his welfare (Genesis 24:60; 31:55; 1 Samuel 2:20). Sometimes blessings were uttered under divine inspiration, as in the case of Noah, Isaac, Jacob, and Moses (Genesis 9:26,27; 27:28,29,40; 48:15-20; 49:1-28; Deuteronomy 33). The priests were divinely authorized to bless the people (Deuteronomy 10:8; Numbers 6:22-27). We have many examples of apostolic benediction (2 Corinthians 13:14; Ephesians 6:23,24; 2 Thessalonians 3:16,18; Hebrews 13:20,21; 1 Peter 5:10,11).

### Thank offering

Among the Jews in their thank-offerings the master of the feast took a cup of wine in his hand, and after having blessed God for it and for other mercies then enjoyed, handed it to his guests, who all partook of it. Psalm 116:13 refers to this custom. It is also alluded to in 1 Corinthians 10:16, where the apostle speaks of the "cup of blessing."

Blood
(2.) The blood of sacrifices was caught by the priest in a basin, and then sprinkled seven times on the altar; that of the passover on the doorposts and lintels of the houses (Ex. 12; Lev. 4:5-7; 16:14-19). At the giving of the law (Ex. 24:8) the blood of the sacrifices was sprinkled on the people as well as on the altar, and thus the people were consecrated to God, or entered into covenant with him, hence the blood of the covenant (Matt. 26:28; Heb. 9:19, 20; 10:29; 13:20).
(3.) Human blood. The murderer was to be punished (Gen. 9:5). The blood of the murdered "crieth for vengeance" (Gen. 4:10). The "avenger of blood" was the nearest relative of the murdered, and he was required to avenge his death (Num. 35:24, 27). No satisfaction could be made for the guilt of murder (Num. 35:31).
(4.) Blood used metaphorically to denote race (Acts 17:26), and as a symbol of slaughter (Isa. 34:3). To "wash the feet in blood" means to gain a great victory (Ps. 58:10). Wine, from its red colour, is called "the blood of the grape" (Gen. 49:11). Blood and water issued from our Saviour's side when it was pierced by the Roman soldier (John 19:34). This has led pathologists to the conclusion that the proper cause of Christ's death was rupture of the heart. (Comp. Ps. 69:20.)

Blasphemy
Blasphemy against the Holy Ghost (Matt. 12:31, 32; Mark 3:28, 29; Luke 12:10) is regarded by some as a continued and obstinate rejection of the gospel, and hence is an unpardonable sin, simply because as long as a sinner remains in unbelief he voluntarily excludes himself from pardon. Others regard the expression as designating the sin of attributing to the power of Satan those miracles which Christ performed, or generally those works which are the result of the Spirit's agency.
