8. NEWSMN_121203_154.JPG: Fairfax County (Virginia) August 11, 1761. Ran away from a Plantation of the Subscriber's, on Dogue-Run in Fairfax, on Sunday the 9th Instant, the following Negroes, viz. Peros, 35 or 40 Years of Age, a well-fed Fellow, of about 5 Feet 8 Inches high, yellowish Complexion, with a very full round Face, and full black Beard, his Speech is something slow and broken, but not in so great a Degree as to render him remarkable. he had on when he went away, a dark colour'd Cloth Coat, a white Linen Waistcoat, white Breeches and white Stockings. Jack, 30 Years (or thereabouts) old, a slim, black, well made Fellow, of near 6 Feet high, a small Face, with Cuts down each Cheek, being his Country Marks, his Feet are large (or long) for 66 he requires a great Shoe: The Cloathing he went off in cannot be well ascertained, but it is thought in his common working Dress, such as Cotton Waistcoat (of which he had a new One) and Breeches, and Osnabrig Shirt. Neptune, aged 25 or 30, well set, and of about 5 Feet 8 or 9 Inches high, thin jaw'd, his Teeth stragling and fil'd sharp, his Back, if rightly remember'd, has many small Marks or Dots running from both Shoulders down to his Waistband, and his Head was close shaved: Had on a Cotton Waistcoat, black or dark colour'd Breeches, and an Osnabrig Shirt. Cupid, 23 or 25 Years old, a black well made Fellow, 5 Feet 8 or 9 Inches high, round and full faced, with broad Teeth before, the Skin of his Face is coarse, and inclined to be pimpley, he has no other distinguishable Mark that can be recollected; he carried with him his common working Cloaths, and an old Osnabrigs Coat made Frockwise. The two last of these Negroes were bought from an African Ship in August 1759, and talk very broken and unintelligible English; the second one, Jack, is Countryman to those, and speaks pretty good English, having been several Years in the Country. The other, Peros, speaks much better than either, indeed has little of his Country Dialect left, and is esteemed a sensible judicious Negro. As they went off without the least Suspicion, Provocation, or Difference with any Body, or the least angry Word or Abuse from their Overseers, tis supposed they will hardly lurk about in the Neighbourhood, but steer some direct Course (which cannot even be guessed at) in Hopes of an Escape: Or, perhaps, as the Negro Peros has lived many Years about Williamsburg, and King William County, and Jack in Middlesex, they may possibly bend their Course to one of those Places. Whoever apprehends the said Negroes, so that the Subscriber may readily get them, shall have, if taken up in this County, Forty Shillings Reward, beside what the Law allows; and if at any greater Distance, or out of the Colony, a proportionable Recompence paid them, by George Washington N.B. If they should be taken separately, the Reward will be proportioned.

10. NEWSMN_121203_166.JPG: URGENT 3rd Lead Schools By BRYCE MILLER United Press Staff Correspondent Little Rock, Ark., Sept. 25 -- (UPI) -- Nine Negro children attended classes in Central High School today behind the bare-bayonets of 500 tough paratroopers who bashed one man in the head, stabbed another in the army, and hustled dozens off to jail. Integration became a fact at Central High at 9:22 A.M. At that hour, three Army vehicles rolled down the street, past small crowds of white segregationists, and into the school yard to deliver the nine negro students. A total of perhaps 500 white adults and teen-agers stood on sidewalks a block or more from the school throughout the morning. A few tested the determination of the troops -- and were wounded or arrested for their efforts. Most watched in silent hostility. None got anywhere near the school grounds. A solid cordon of paratroopers, standing with bayonetted rifles ready, saw to that.

12. NEWSMN_121203_229.JPG: The heading was interesting. "The Washington Post" but under it was "Times Herald". According to the Wikipedia article, in 1954, the Washington Post newspaper consolidated its position by acquiring and merging with its last morning rival, the Washington Times-Herald. The combined paper would officially be named The Washington Post and Times-Herald until 1973, although the Times-Herald portion of the masthead became less and less prominent after the 1950s.

23. NEWSMN_121203_564.JPG: This drum was used in the funeral procession of President John F. Kennedy on November 24, 1963 when it was played by Sgt. Samuel Evans of The United States Army Band marching in the interservice drum corps from the White House to the Capitol.

2012 photos: Equipment this year: My mainstays were the Fuji S100fs, Nikon D7000, and the new Fuji X-S1. I also used an underwater Fuji XP50 and a Nikon D600. The first three cameras all broke this year and had to be repaired. Trips this year: three Civil War Trust conferences (Shepherdstown, WV, Richmond, VA, and Williamsburg, VA), a week-long family reunion cruise of the Caribbean, another week-long family reunion in the Wisconsin Dells (with lots of in-transit time in Ohio and Indiana), and my 7th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including side trips to Zion, Bryce, the Grand Canyon, etc). Ego strokes: I had a picture of Miss DC, Ashley Boalch, published in the Washington Post. I had a photograph of the George Segal San Francisco Holocaust memorial used as the cover of Quebec Francais (issue 165). Not being able to read French, I'm not entirely sure what the article is about but, hey! And I guess what could be considered to be a positive thing, my site is now established enough that spammers have noticed it and I had to block 17,000 file description postings for Viagra and whatever else.. Number of photos taken this year: just below 410,000.
