An amusing incident arose during the summer when I tried to get a photograph of the old chief . There was a mulatto named Jack confined with the Indians and he conspired with me to get the old brave to sit for a picture . Accordingly Big Eagle put on all his finery and paraphernalia and we went down to the studio of a photographer who had opened up his place of business down on the river road at the end of what is still known as “ Hog ’ s Back Ridge . ” Everything went well until we neared the place when Big Eagle began to remove his finery . We asked him what the trouble was and he said he would not pose unless we paid him $ 15 " ( Davenport Weekly Democrat , September 28 , 1905 ) .

Docimus Antigonos Dokimos , commonly shortened and Latinized as Docimus ( in Greek Δόκιμoς ; lived 4th century BC ) , was one of the officers in the Macedonian army . After the death of Alexander the Great ( 323 BC ) he supported the party of Perdiccas . After the death of Perdiccas ( 321 BC ) he united with Attalus and Alcetas , and was taken prisoner together with the former when their combined forces were defeated by Antigonus in Pisidia , 320 BC . The captives were confined in a strong fort , but , during the expedition of Antigonus against Eumenes , they contrived to overpower their guards , and make themselves masters of the fortress ( 316 BC ) . Docimus , however , having quit the castle to carry on a negotiation with Stratonice , the wife of Antigonus , was again made prisoner . He appears after this to have entered the service of Antigonus , as we find him in 313 BC sent by that prince with an army to establish the freedom of the Greek cities in Caria . In the campaign preceding the battle of Ipsus ( 301 BC ) , he held the strong fortress of Synnada in Phrygia in charge for Antigonus , but was induced to surrender it into the hands of Lysimachus . It is probable that he had been governor of the adjoining Phrygian district for some time : and he had founded there the city called after him Docimium . His name is not mentioned after the fall of Antigonus .
Château de Losse The Château de Losse and its gardens have been listed as French Historical House and Site since 1928 . They are located in Périgord , Dordogne district , South - West of France , near the Lascaux pre - historic caves , on the Vézère river . The medieval fortress overlooks the Vézère river . In 1575 a Renaissance Hall was built within the stronghold . It is enclosed by curtain walls and surrounded by a deep ditch . Inside the décor and the period furnishings bear witness to the grand lifestyle of the Marquess Jean II de Losse in the 16th century . History . The Losse family came from Flanders in the 11th century and subsequently built a stronghold on the right bank of the Vézère . From that time they belonged to the feudal hierarchy . Later on their allegiance went to the king of France . The Hall was built in 1576 inside the medieval fortress by Jean II Marquis de Losse . A great soldier , his loyalty to the Crown was the source of his military and social good fortune . He was page to François I , served all the sons of Catherine de ' Medici and was tutor to Henri IV . As a courtier he saw the prevalent Renaissance criteria used in contemporary buildings in Paris and elsewhere . At the end of his career he returned to Périgord as General governor of Limousin and Guyenne . The changes he then made to his ancestral home were in accordance with the taste of the times , while retaining a country - like sobriety . Since , however , the religious wars still raged , he put his great experience in defending royal places against the Imperial troops to improving the defensive apparel of the castle for the use of firearms ( e . g . muskets and canons ) . This can be seen from the various openings in the curtain walls and the barbican . He was a contemporary of Montaigne and also wished to leave a motto that echoed his life . These were engraved in different places of the castle . Over the entrance can be read : « Man does as he may , Fortune ( fate ) as she will » The Castle . Such as we see it today it has remained unaltered since the 16th century , save for the wear of time . It was therefore listed as an Historical Monument in 1928 . Its sole access is by the bridge over the moat and through a fortified gatehouse ( the largest of its kind in France ) . In the courtyard , the façade of the Hall ( 1576 ) is an example of Renaissance architecture . Its characteristic features are carved in the golden stone of Périgord . On the riverside the grandiose terrace built on the cliff offers a view down the Vézère valley . The grand staircase with stone ornaments leads to rooms with sculpted mantelpieces . The Gardens . In the hornbeam ‘ green chambers ’ as they were designed in the 17th century , the labyrinthine walk windows open onto the castle and the flower beds . Upon reaching the river the balcony , dating back to the 16th century , allows a view downstream .

The president was James Madison , and the general whom Madison put in charge of the war effort was Andrew Jackson , who would parlay his success in removing the Creek from their ancestral homes into two terms of his own presidency . Mayfield was recommended to Jackson by the commanding general of the Tennessee troops for to his unique knowledge of the Creek language and territory . Mayfield proved to be a very valuable asset to General Jackson . He performed heroically as a guide , interpreter and spy . He was wounded at the Battle of Horseshoe Bend . Later life . In the treaty of surrender that ended the war , the Creek chiefs recognized not only Mayfield ' s bravery , but also his integrity in his dealings with them during negotiations .

S . government refused to allow this , forcing him to petition Congress for the grant . Congress finally complied ; however the grant was never enforced by the government .

Johan van Galen Johan van Galen ( 1604 – 23 March 1653 ) was a Commodore of the Republic of the Seven United Provinces of the Netherlands . He was born in Essen . He fought in the Eighty Years ' War against Spain , becoming a captain in 1630 and a regular captain in 1635 , mostly fighting the Dunkirkers . In 1639 , he fought in the Battle of the Downs under the command of Joris van Cats . In 1645 , as a Rear - Admiral , he was part of Vice - Admiral Witte de With ' s convoy breaking the blockade of The Sound by Denmark . Both men were very hot - tempered and proud ; emotions ran so high that , at one point , in anger , Van Galen lowered his command flag and trampled it with his feet . De With put him in chains and delivered him to the capital of the adversary , Copenhagen . The embarrassed Danish court released Van Galen after an intervention by the French envoy . A peculiarity of Van Galen is that he never served in the navy proper , an institution he disliked , but was employed by the Amsterdam Direction Chamber , a private organisation supporting the official navy . After the Republic had made peace with Spain in 1648 , Van Galen was sent out three times , with Spanish assistance , to fight the corsairs of the Barbary Coast . In 1649 , he was badly wounded when a gang of Spanish criminals intercepted him when he was returning in a sloop with prize money . Van Galen retired late in 1650 , but when the First Anglo - Dutch War between the Republic and the Commonwealth of England broke out , he was asked by the States - General , on 13 July 1652 , to assume command of a Dutch fleet in the Mediterranean , as a Commodore and replacing Commandeur Joris van Cats . He departed on 3 August , reaching Livorno on 1 September . He was mortally wounded during the Battle of Leghorn , where his fleet destroyed part of the English Mediterranean Fleet . < br > A cannonball smashed his right lower leg ; it was amputated below - deck and afterwards , Van Galen continued to direct the battle . He died from wound fever ten days later in Livorno . Cornelis Tromp was then a young captain under his command . < br > Van Galen was given a state burial in the Nieuwe Kerk in Amsterdam and in 1656 , a marble grave memorial was erected on which this poem is inscribed :
Type 11 37 mm Infantry Gun The was an infantry support gun used by the Imperial Japanese Army in the Second Sino - Japanese War and World War II . The Type 11 designation was given to this gun as it was accepted in the 11th year of Emperor Taishō ' s reign ( 1922 ) . History and development . The Type 11 infantry gun entered service in 1922 . It was intended to be used against enemy machine gun positions and light tank s , and in a modified form was used to equip some early Japanese tanks ( the Japanese Renault NC27 and some early Type 89 I - Go medium tanks ) . It had been largely been superseded by the Type 94 37 mm Anti - Tank Gun by beginning of the Pacific War . Design . The Type 11 infantry gun was based on the French Canon d ' Infanterie de 37 modèle 1916 TRP ( US Army M1916 ) , for which Japan bought a production license after World War I , and modified to suit Japanese requirements ) . It fired from a tubular steel tripod and used a vertically sliding breechblock , that was opened and closed by a lever on the right side of the gun . The gun was fired by pulling sharply on a cord hanging from its rear , which drove a lever into the firing pin , which impacted and initiated the percussion cap in the rear of the shell . It was intended to be carried into action by its gunners using the rear legs of the gun as carrying poles and lacked wheels entirely , with a pair of removable poles at the front allowing four men to lift the weapon . The rear legs of the weapon were fitted with spades to firmly fix the gun in position . The gun fired the Type 12 high explosive shell , which contained 41 grams of explosive , as well as an ineffective anti - tank shell . Combat record . The Type 11 infantry support guns were typically assigned in groups of four to combat infantry regiment s . Each weapon was manned by a squad of 10 men ( a squad leader , four gunners ( two of whom stood in reserve a little distance from the gun ) , three men to carry ammunition and two men who handled the pack horse s used with the gun ) , and was kept in contact with the regimental headquarters ( typically up to 300 meters ) away by field telephone or messenger runners . The gun was effective in the early stages of the Second - Sino - Japanese War for its intended purpose of providing heavy infantry firepower against semi - fortified positions , such as pillbox es , machine gun nests , and lightly armored vehicles . However , its low muzzle velocity , small caliber and low rate of fire rendered it quickly obsolete against Allied forces equipped with tanks , and it was seldom seen outside of reserve units during the Pacific War .
