They will dramatically take up the space of the present exhibition, calling attention to the materials he used: jute or old sarees, treated with invented mixtures, that primed, sized, gave texture, and unfading colour to his paintings. A box of school notebooks form a part his studio. Raiba had pasted into school exercise books hundreds of his drawings, jottings and cuttings, folds of papers which open up to larger grids of space, from which he drew his world of references. He has labelled them according to his obsessions.
As a reporter Blackburn collaborated with Thomas Flower Ellis. Though greatly respected he does not seem to have been popular; according to a well-known story he informed a colleague that he intended to retire in vacation to avoid the trouble of a retirement dinner — the colleague cheerfully replied that this was quite unnecessary since no-one would have turned up to the dinner anyway.Sir John Hollam Jottings of an Old Solicitor London 1906 He was the author of a valuable work on the Law of Sales.'The Times, 10 January 1896; E Manson, Builders of our Law (1904).

Chung Keng Quee formed close relationships with the many British Residents of Perak and built a reputation for making mining operations a success. E. W. Birch (Ernest Woodford Birch), seventh British Resident to Perak, left in February 1897 to take up the post of Acting British Resident, Negeri Sembilan and on 15 March 1897, while paying visits of inspection to various parts of the Negri Sembilan, recorded in his papers "I wish we could induce Captain Ah Kwi, of Perak, to enter Lukut and Labu" (The Selangor Journal: Jottings Past and Present, Vol V, 1897 Page 254).
Suanxue qimeng Alexander Wylie's Jottings on the Science of the Chinese Tian yuan shu () is a Chinese system of algebra for polynomial equations created in the 13th century. It is first known from the writing of Li Zhi (Li Ye), though it was created earlier. The mathematical culture in which it was created was lost due to war and general suspiciousness during the Ming dynasty of knowledge from the (Mongolian) Yuan dynasty. The writings of Li Zhi (Ceyuan haijing), Zhu Shijie (Jade Mirror of the Four Unknowns) and others could no longer be fully understood, until the arrival of western mathematics in China.

McLean, p. xvii During his last decade he wrote The Reminiscences of Edmund Evans, a short volume he described as "the rambling jottings of an old man".McLean, p. xviii In that book Evans includes few details of his business practices and processes, and is significant because it adds to the scant information available on the colour printers of the era. In the 1960s, Ruari McLean edited the unrevised 102-page typescript released to him by Evans' grandson which was published by the Oxford University Press in 1967. Evans died in 1905, and is buried in Ventnor cemetery.
The Priory was Askew's residence until he sold it in 1874, during which time he remortgaged it at least five times using it as collateral. It appears he also shared the Priory with Henry Schneider, the iron mining entrepreneur.Casson, R., 1900, Some Retrospective Jottings of an Old Furness Worthy, H.W. MAckereth's Seventh Annual Furness Year Book, p33 In 1874 the Priory was bought by John Poole,CRO(B) BDKF/145/12 1874 a local solicitor of Ulverston, who sold much of the estate for development; one of the main purchasers was William Gradwell, a developer from Barrow in Furness.
The 19th century British Protestant Christian missionary Alexander Wylie in his article "Jottings on the Sciences of Chinese Mathematics" published in North China Herald 1852, was the first person to introduce Sea Island Mathematical Manual to the West. In 1912, Japanese mathematic historian Yoshio Mikami published The Development of Mathematics in China and Japan, chapter 5 was dedicated to this book.Yoshio Mikami, The Development of Mathematics in China and Japan, chapter 5, The Hai Tao Suan-ching or Sea Island Arithmetical Classic, 1913 Leipzig, reprint Chelsea Publishing Co, NY A French mathematician translated the book into French in 1932.

A full-colour catalogue, The Occult Visions of Rosaleen Norton was published to accompany this exhibition. In 2009, Teitan Press published Thorn in the Flesh: A Grim-memoir by Norton, with an introduction by Australian Norton scholar Keith Richmond. The volume comprises poetry (often humorous), reminiscences, and various occult jottings by Rosaleen Norton, with reproductions of two stunning photographs of Norton, as well as some half-a- dozen examples of her art (mainly in color).THORN IN THE FLESH – A GRIM- MEMOIRE In 2012 Norton's work was including in the major exhibition, "Windows to the Sacred" curated by Robert Buratti, which toured a number of Australian museums until 2016.
Advertising Jeffries' English debut (4 December 1890) Jeffries left the United States on the RMS City of Chester on 6 August 1890,Through the Opera Glass: Personal and Other Jottings, The (San Francisco) Morning Call, (17 August 1890), p.11. and arrived at Liverpool on 16 August 1890. Her first appearance on the English stage was in a small part in a new play, The People's Idol, that Barrett had written in collaboration with Victor Widnell. She made her English debut, on 4 December 1890, in the play's first public performance:The opening night had been delayed due to problems with the construction of the theatre.
A historian had this to say about the original manor house: :The first house and gardens probably did not cover a larger space than two acres, and were surrounded by a moat. The masonry supporting the ancient drawbridge, the remains of which consisted of a rude mass of flint and chalk, cemented together by mortar which had become as hard as stone, was discovered....about forty-five yards north of the present house; and....to the south....foundation walls, the lower portions of which were constructed of blocks of chalk."The Church and Manor of Bromley", a research paper by Dr W. T. Beeby (from Clinch. Antiquarian Jottings, p11).

In his Dictionary of London, Charles Dickens Jr commented on the smallness of the tunnel: "there is not much head-room left, and it is not advisable for any but the very briefest of Her Majesty's lieges to attempt the passage in high-heeled boots, or with a hat to which he attaches any particular value." The Tower Subway in 1870 The Italian writer Edmondo De Amicis (1846–1908) gave a description of a passage through the subway in his Jottings about London: Tower Subway northern entrance kiosk at Tower Hill.
It is quite characteristic that it was in 1880, when the British Valentine Chirol visited the Christian "Albanian" village of Tourkopalouko (today Kypseli, at the northwest part of the Preveza prefecture), that his confidence for his Greek friends in Yanina "was first shaken". He was surprised that no one in the village spoke or understood any other language than Albanian although his friends "had assured me that south [of the river] Kalamas there were no Albanian communities" (V. Chirol, "Twixt Greek and Turk, or Jottings during a journey through Thessaly, Macedonia and Epirus, in the Autumn of 1880", Blackwood’s Edinbrurgh Magazine, n. 785, March 1881, p. 313).
Thinking along these lines dated back at least to 1936 when he and George Robertson approached Eskom with proposals for power lines along the Vaal and Modder Rivers to feed the Kimberley region. In 1946, with Russell Elliott and Graham Eden, he co-founded the Northern Cape and Adjoining Areas Development Association, publishing further pamphlets and maps to promote this hitherto neglected region which held enormous potential, particularly in terms of its mineral wealth. (Jottings among Morris's personal papers indicate a search for a name for the region that would not require translation – "Nova Kaap" being one possibility – but "Northern Cape" was the name that stuck). In 1944, H.A. Morris, upon retirement, was re-employed as Municipal Development Officer.
The Ameses had four children: Pauline (born 1901), Oliver (born 1903), Amyas (born 1906), and Evelyn (born 1910).Mass. Dept. of Conservation and Recreation, "Blanche Ames Ames" (last visited 2010/05/04. Later in her life, Ames wrote a biography about her father, "Adelbert Ames, 1835-1933; General, Senator, Governor, the story of his life and times and his integrity as a soldier and statesman in the service of the United States of America throughout the Civil War and in Mississippi in the years of Reconstruction" (1964). Ames' daughter, Pauline, grew up to write many books about her family, including "Oakes Ames, Jottings of a Harvard Botanist" (1979), and "The Plimpton Papers, Law and Diplomacy" (1985).
In August 2004, he backed unsuccessful impeachment procedures against Prime Minister Tony Blair for "high crimes and misdemeanours" regarding the war, and in December 2006 described the invasion as "a colossal mistake and misadventure". Although labelling Johnson "ineffably duplicitous" for breaking his promise not to become an MP, Black decided not to dismiss him because he "helped promote the magazine and raise its circulation". Johnson remained editor of The Spectator, also writing columns for The Daily Telegraph and GQ, and making television appearances. His 2001 book, Friends, Voters, Countrymen: Jottings on the Stump, recounted that year's election campaign, while 2003's Lend Me Your Ears collected together previously published columns and articles.
Prior to joining the faculty at Georgetown University in January 2009, he served as assistant and associate professor of Political Science at Yale University (1999–2008).

The Pensées is the name given posthumously to fragments that Pascal had been preparing for an apology for Christianity, which was never completed. That envisioned work is often referred to as the Apology for the Christian Religion, although Pascal never used that title. Although the Pensées appears to consist of ideas and jottings, some of which are incomplete, it is believed that Pascal had, prior to his death in 1662, already planned out the order of the book and had begun the task of cutting and pasting his draft notes into a coherent form. His task incomplete, subsequent editors have disagreed on the order, if any, in which his writings should be read.
From 1863 he was an agent of the British and Foreign Bible Society. He was succeeded by Samuel Dyer, Junior, the son of Samuel Dyer and brother-in-law of Hudson Taylor. In Chinese, he translated books on arithmetic, calculus (Loomis), algebra (De Morgan's), mechanics, astronomy (Herschel's), in collaboration with Li Shanlan, and The Marine Steam Engine (TJ Main and T Brown), as well as translations of the Gospel According to Matthew and the Gospel According to Mark. In English his chief works were Jottings on the Science of the Chinese, published in 1853, Shanghai; a collection of articles published under the title Chinese Researches by Alexander Wylie (Shanghai, 1897); Memorials of Protestant Missionaries (1867); Notes on Chinese Literature (Shanghai, 1867).
In 1978, he appeared as both Garkbit, the waiter at the Restaurant at the End of the Universe, and The Great Prophet Zarquon, in Fit the Fifth of the original radio series of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. In 1981, he appeared as the town clerk of the fictional Frambourne Town Council in the pilot episode of It Sticks Out Half a Mile, the radio sequel to Dad's Army; it was in that episode that Arthur Lowe reprised his role of Captain Mainwaring for the very last time several months before his death. In 1982–84 Sharp was a regular as Major Dyrenforth on the Radio 2 series The Random Jottings of Hinge and Bracket, his last few episodes being broadcast posthumously.
Her assertions, published in her jottings, were that John Radclyffe, the son of the last Earl of Derwentwater, and de jure 4th Earl of Derwentwater did not die in 1732, but was trafficked to Germany, and in 1740 married at Frankfort-on-Main, Elizabeth Arabella Maria, Countess of Waldstein. He died there in 1798, in his eighty-sixth year. His son James, at that time in his fifty-fifth year, was his heir, and was married to Eleanora the Countess Mouravieff, but leaving no issue, was succeeded by his brother, John James, who was born at Alston, in Cumberland, in 1764. The latter died in 1833, having married, late in life, Amelia Anna Charlotte, Princess Sobieski, a descendant of the noted Polish family of that name.

Even as late as 1865 when Tēvita ʻUnga, king George Tupou I's son, the crown prince, was described as "minus 2 fingers, cut off as a tribute to some deceased relatives" (as well as having lost one eye).Brenchley: Jottings during the cruise of HMS 'Curacoa' among the South seas islands in 1865; London 1873. This tenth day is known as the pongipongi tapu (sacred morning) and features a taumafa kava (royal kava ceremony), which is a good time to bestow the chiefly title (if any) of the deceased onto his heir. The end of the mourning, 100 days later, is marked by the lanu kilikili (washing of the stones), when little black stones (volcanic stones, collected from islands like Tofua) are rubbed with sweet smelling oil are laid out over the grave.
Now I Know is a young adult novel by Aidan Chambers, first published in 1987. It is a meditation on faith and religion through three interlinked stories, which are told by means of letters, jottings, flashbacks, poetry and puzzles. The novel is part of the author's Dance Sequence, a group of novels which stand alone but can be read in relation to each other. As part of Chambers' interest in experimental writing, he refers to Tom Phillip's remarkable A Humument: a Treated Victorian Novel (Thames & Hudson, 1980), a modern work that is created from the pages of an actual Victorian novel by painting over most of the words of the original, creating illustrations and decorations, while leaving enough of the original words on each page to tell a total new story.
La Légende des Siècles was not originally conceived as the vast work it was to become. Its beginning, the original seed, was in a vague project entitled Petites Epopées ("Little Epics"), which features in the notes and jottings of Hugo from 1848, and which gives no indication of so vast an ambition. After Les Châtiments and Les Contemplations, his editor, Hetzel, was perturbed by the submission of La Fin de Satan and Dieu, both of which were nearly complete. Seeing that Hugo was ready to proceed yet further down the metaphysical (or even eschatological) road mapped out by the final Contemplations, Hetzel became anxious at the probability of their failure with the public, and preferred the sound of the Petites Epopées which Hugo had mentioned, feeling they would be more in harmony with the spirit of the times.
When he visited Denmark in 1911, for example, he skipped Copenhagen, instead concentrating on the less-populated region of Jutland. A proud and highly opinionated Yorkshireman, Howdill claimed that there was a deep affinity between the peoples of Jutland and Yorkshire: 'A Yorkshireman is thus entitled to expect, in this country of his forefathers to come across some of the traits and characteristic energy found in his own broad shire'.Duncan McCargo (ed.) Jutland Jottings: Charles B. Howdill 1911, Copenhagen: Weysesgade eBooks 2020, p.3 He believed this affinity dated back to their shared ancestry following the invasion of modern-day Yorkshire by the Jutes in the fifth century AD.For a more recent take, see Among Howdill's most striking images is the only known colour photograph of the journalist and controversialist W. T. Stead, taken in 1912 shortly before he perished on the RMS Titanic.
Some ten months back, I described in the columns of the Herald the southern coast, Moruya being included in my jottings with the rest of the coast town. I will not therefore at present enter into detail, but simply string together a few memories, mental ones made during my progress from Moruya to Manaro. One of the first of these memories, I find, must touch upon the Moruya River, a stream which, by the way, of late years has not been conducting itself in a manner likely to benefit or keep the goodwill of the residents along its banks. Some short time back a punt used to travel from bank to bank opposite the town, the depth of water being quite sufficient for the purpose—indeed more, for I believe small coasting craft used to come up from the Heads to the town, a distance of about five miles.
' The evils of the Irish land system must be urgently addressed and resolved: 'More than three years ago I ventured during a debate in the House of Commons on the Irish land question, to predict that if the proposal then before the House to deprive the landlords of the power of eviction and rack-renting – that is to say the proposal in favour of fixity of tenure at fair rents – was not accepted, the Irish people would rise up and protest against the institution of landlordism, root and branch, and demand its abolition.' O'Connor Power, 'The Irish Land Agitation', 964. Though originally a friend, Davitt changed his opinion of O'Connor Power, describing him in his 'Jottings In Solitary' of 1881–1882 as a "renegade to former nationalist principles: unscrupulously ambitious and untrustworthy". When Davitt moved to London he renewed his friendship with O'Connor Power.
The Old Melburnians Football Club, also known as Old Melburnians,At a meeting held at Melbourne Grammar School on 22 April 1895, called to inaugurate an organization for former students that would amalgamate and oversee the activities of various sporting activities, such as the athletics, cricket, gymnastics clubs that were already established for "old boys" as well as any others that might be created in the future (e.g., football). After strong debate, with a number of suggested names, including "Old Church of England Grammar School Boys' Association", being rejected, the meeting (composed of "old boys" from all eras, including the 1860s) decided upon the name "Old Melburnians" for the "old boys" umbrella organization (see: Old Boy, "College Sports: Weekly Jottings", The Australasian, (Saturday, 27 April 1895), p.19. is an Australian rules football club composed of Melbourne Grammar School alumni, based in Port Melbourne, Victoria.
The Birds of the District of Geelong, Australia is a book published in 1914 by W.J. Griffiths in Geelong, Victoria, Australia. Authored by Charles Frederic Belcher, it was published in octavo format (225 x 144 mm), containing 414 pages bound in navy blue buckram. It is illustrated with numerous black-and- white photographic plates. It contains a systematic list of 244 bird species known to occur within a radius of from the city of Geelong, south-west of Melbourne on the western side of Port Phillip Bay, followed by largely personal reminiscences on the birdlife. The author says in his Preface: > ”This book is not a scientific treatise, but merely the outcome of a > personal desire, which I have long cherished, to give some permanent and > orderly form to the odd notes, jottings, and recollections of some five-and- > twenty years upon the birds inhabiting the district lying about my native > town of Geelong.
After having mastered Latin, he went on to make such good progress in Chinese that, in 1846, James Legge engaged him to superintend the London Missionary Society's press in Shanghai. In this position, he acquired a wide knowledge of Chinese religion and civilisation, and especially of mathematics, enabling him to demonstrate in his paper Jottings on the Science of the Chinese that Sir George Horner's method (1819) of solving equations of all orders had been known to the Chinese mathematicians of the 14th century. He made several journeys into the interior, notably in 1858 with Lord Elgin on a British Navy gunboat up the Yangtze and to Nanking, where he served as one member of a delegation of three to meet with officials of the Taiping, and in 1868 with Griffith John to the capital of Szechuen and the source of the Han. He completed the distribution of one million Chinese New Testaments provided by the British and Foreign Bible Society's special fund of 1855.
He had been invited to England by a nobleman in 1737 and remained for a year and a half, passing easily at every level of society, and expressing his observations in ninety-two letters that concerned the English almost entirely, and concentrated on social observation, with a minority of letters on politics and literature, worked up from the notebooks he carried with him everywhere and filled with his jottings on the spot. The results were widely read and approved as the judicious appraisal of particular and characteristic English types, viewed dispassionately. An early champion of Chardin, his two letters on the Paris salons, of 1747 and 1753, are a guide to enlightened contemporary taste and the defense of the Académie royale de peinture et de sculpture, whose members had the exclusive right to exhibit at the Paris salons.His 1747 letter is published in translation in Charles Harrison, Paul Wood and Jason Gaiger, Art in Theory 1648–1815: An Anthology of Changing Ideas (Blackwell) 2001:561ff.
During one trial at Bow Street, while wearing an unusually large number of flowers in his coat and his irons decorated with blue ribbons, Rann reportedly addressed the presiding magistrate Sir John Fielding, saying "I know no more of the matter than you do or half as much" when he was asked if he had anything to say in his defence. He was finally apprehended after robbing the chaplain of Princess Amelia near Brentford in 1774 and held in custody at Newgate Gaol, where he supposedly entertained seven women at a farewell dinner before his execution on 30 November. Shortly before he was to be hanged, appearing in a specially made pea-green suit adorned by a large nosegay, he enjoyed cheerful banter with both the hangman and the crowd, then danced a jig, before being publicly executed at Tyburn at the age of 24. An alternative (but of unsubstantiated provenance) account of John Rann's capture and given in Julius Jottings, Nr4.

In the same spirit of universal humanism as Surîsul Hiroşimei, his new collection was inspired by a postwar visit to the site of the Czech village of Lidice, which together with its inhabitants was totally destroyed by the Nazis during World War II as an act of revenge. Jebeleanu's other publications include Din veacul XX ("From the Twentieth Century", 1956), a collection of journalistic texts; Poeme, 1944-1964 ("Poems, 1944-1964", 1964); Elegie pentru floarea secerată ("Elegy for the Cut Flower", 1966), one of his important collections of lyrics and a break from his previous engaged poetry; Hanibal ("Hannibal", 1972), a volume of poems; and Deasupra zilei ("Above the Day", 1981), a book of "jottings" on various subjects.

Butters' inn and tavern was located on 131 South Main Street, Concord, New Hampshire. It was built and registered as an inn in 1780 by its original owner, Samuel Butters, a Merrimack River ferry boat captain and former American Revolutionary War Minuteman. Butters owned the tavern and inn from 1780 to 1811, followed by his son Timothy Butters who owned it from 1811 to 1814, subsequently owned by John Carr (1814–1822), Joshua Lynch (1823–1829), George Saltmarsh (1830), William Manley Carter, and Carter and Priest (1831–1842), Leonard Bell (1843), and David N.
