Talk:Promises, Promises (musical)

message: It says that Dinnone Warwick had a Hit with 'I'll Never Fall In Love Again' - TWICE in the same paragraph. It sounds clumsy. I altered it to say that BOBBIE GENTRY also had a Hit with it - UK No.1 in 1969 - but, you did not like that, & removed it - only to re-add the SECOND reference to Dionne Warwick having a Hit with it!

Talk:Purlie

message: Purlie is one of the greatest black musicals that I have been privileged to see. I first saw it on Broadway starring Clevon Little as Purlie and Melba Moore as the leading lady Lutiebell, and then again on cable in the early 1980's, starring Robert Guillaume.  Melba Moore who I refer to as the little lady with the big voice was brilliant! I was totally mesmerized by the entire performance and I have seen a lot of on and off Broadway shows that were magnificent and Purlie is at the top of the charts. I have read that the latter version was shown on PBS but I do not know when.  Everyone I know is attempting to locate this artistic work on DVD or VHS.  So far no one has managed to locate it on either.  It is a shame that the public is deprived of witnessing the superb acting and artistic wizardtry of the broadway stage. For those of you who enjoy musicals but have not seen it do yourselves a favor if you ever get the opportunity and watch it . . .

I also couldn't find anything about a poem with words "set or setting the hills on fire" in an internet search or a search of a couple books that had a couple of his poems. What is that from? Perhaps some linked sources could be used since there is some info on the web about him. There is an anonymous blogger using this Thomas Rowley's name and saying all sorts of false things, so it's important that no one think this wiki article is also unverifiable.

Talk:1st Vermont Brigade

message: One fact that anyone editing Civil War, or battles/wars earlier than WWI should be aware of is that there were no medals between the Purple Heart and the Medal of Honor. Having an array of medals to qualify for is a 20th century phenomena. Therefore, if the US military wished to award a medal to anyone for anything before WWI, it had to be a Medal of Honor. This means that the status of the Medal has risen considerably since WWI, since heroic conduct could be recognized by other means. 
With earlier battles, one has to decide how meritorious the heroism by reading the award. There is no other way. Nor can it be assumed that the award was more than "routine." For example, "the little drummer boy" 11 years old or so, was awarded a Medal of Honor for bringing his drum during a disorganized retreat. His fellow musicians all lost theirs! While this is amusing and even heroic, it doesn't quite meet our threshhold of the 20th century for that award. Student7 (talk) 23:32, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Untitled

message: While searching for an ancestor said to have died while a prisoner in a British jail in Canada during the Revolutionary War, I became interested in the ever-changing story of the part Seth Warner played in the Americans’ retreat from Quebec. The results of my research appeared in an article in 	Vermont History, Vol. 86, No. 2, Summer/Fall 2018, https://vermonthistory.org/journal/86/VH8602SethWarner.pdf. It documents what historians in Vermont have known for over half a century: that Warner did not bring the American army back from Quebec to American soil. 
I do not have the technical know-how to do more than suggest that the documents cited in that article are essential to giving an accurate account of the retreat and the Battle of Bennington. 
One note: Warner’s son Israel, born in 1768, was not quite 8 when his father’s regiment retreated from Quebec. He was 9 in 1776 when his father sent him on horseback to deliver a message to the regiment to come to Bennington immediately.

I believe it was in the course of Sir Walter's trial for treason that there was a reference to a "bye" that was found to have been committed,  or possibly alluded to.    Similarly,  it was my understanding that there is a nautical term known as a "bye" for sailing ships.    I don't think it's in reference to saying "good-by."    Instead, it's possible that "bye" is a reference to a detour taken, usually by some other route, as in travelling by going east.
