Anniversary Hazel Marie Goodlove & Charles E. Mayfield


This Day…

October 14, 1770. At Captn. Crawfords all day.


October 14 th, 1770.—At Captain Crawford’s all day. Went to see a coal mine not far from his house on the banks of the river. The coal seemed of the very best kind, burning freely, and abundance of it.[1]


October 14, 1770 It may be well to observe here that Col. Crawford was only acting the part of a friend to me; for at that time, tho’ he was a Surveyor by regular appointment from the College of Wm, and Mary, it was for the local purpose of surveying the 200,000 acres granted by Dinwiddie’s Proclamation of 1754 to the Troops of the State, who were entitled to it as a bounty: but as I proposed to cover this survey with a military warrant as soon as circumstances would permit, these steps were prelimi­nary to obtain the Land. Accordingly, a Warrant which I obtained in consequence of a purchase from one Captain Posey (who under the British Kings proclamation of 1763 was en­titled to 3000 acres) whose Bond I now have bearing date the 14th. of Octr. (October 14) 1770, assigning to me all his right to land under it, was located thereon; and Col. Crawford, after receiving a commission to act as Deputy to Mr. Thos. Lewis, made a return of this survey to his principal, who returned it to the Secretary’s office, from whence a Patent issued signed by Lord Dunmore in June or July 1774, for 2813 acres, reciting under what right I became entitled to the Land. Hence, and from the repeated warnings, which it is said can be proved were given at the time my opponents were about to take possession of the Land, and afterwards, comes my title.



The title of my opponents I know will be: 1st. That Craw-fords survey was illegal, at least, was unauthorized. 2d. That being a great land-jobber, he held, or endeavored to monop­olise under one pretence or other much land: and tho’ (for they do not deny the fact to me in private discussion, altho’ considering the lapse of time, deaths, and dispersion of people, I may find some difficulty to prove it) they were told this was my land; yet conceiving my name was only made use of as a cover, and in this they say they were confirmed, having (after some of the warnings given them) searched the Land office of this State without discovering any such Grant to me. 3d. That their possession of the Land, preceded my Patent or date of the Surveyors return to the Secretary’s office; or even the date of Crawfords deputation under Lewis, before which, every transaction they will add, was invalid.



But to recapitulate, the Dispute, if my memory for want of papers does not deceive me, may be summed up in these words.



1st. In the year 1771, Crawford at my request looked of this Land for me, and made an actual survey thereof on m account.


2d. Some person (not of the opponents) setting up a clam to part included by the survey, he purchased them out, bu~1 one cabbin, if not more, and placed a man therein to kee1 possession of the Land.


3d. It was called my band, and generally believed to be so every body, and under that persuasion was left by some, whc uninformed of my right, had begun to build, before the pres­ent occupants took possession to the exclusion as I have related before of the person placed thereon by Crawford.


4th. That sometime in October 1773 according to their own accot., these occupants took possession.



5th. That upon their doing so, and at several times there­after, they were notified of my claim and intention to assert my right.



6th. That no survey was ever made of this Land, but the first one by Crawford.



7th. That it is declared in the Surveyors return, to be con­sequent of a warrant granted by Lord Dunmore to Jno. Posey assigned to me. But whether this warrt. is dated before or after possession was taken by my opponents, I know not, but the Survey will shew this.



8th. That after he received his deputation (which I believe was subsequent to their occupancy) he made a return of the survey to Mr. Lewis, who returned it to the Secretary’s Office in the early part, I believe, of the year 1774, and a Patent issued without any caveat or Opposition from these people.



9th. I believe, because I never heard otherwise, that no office rights either in this State or that of Pennsylvania, were ever obtained by my opponents, resting their title upon possession.


Under this statement of the matter, in which I have con­ceded everything I know, or which I think can be urged against my claim, I would thank you, as the matter will be deter­mined in another State, for such advice and information of Acts of Assembly, Acts of Convention, or rules of office which make to the point, as my long absence renders me quite an ignoramus in these matters, and as unfit for, as I am disinclined to controversies of this kind.


If pre-occupancy will take place of legal right, under the circumstances here mentioned; it remains still a question how far the possession and improvements which were made in my behalf, previous to those of my opponents, will avail me; that is, under what title I should then claim the Land, and under that title how much of it I should hold, supposing one Cabbin only to have been built and occupied, by any rule of Office, or Act of Government.


When I look back at the length of this letter, and consider how much trouble I am giving you, I must thro myself upon your goodness for an apology, whilst I assure you of the esteem and regard with which I am, etc.[2


October 14, 1771; Dr. Craik went away after breakfast and Mrs. Marnes came. Mr. Hanley dined here and Valentine Crawford became sick at night.[3]


October 14, 1776

Having been on the receiving end in Boston, the British Army now appreciated the value of rifles and riflemen. Thus, only five months later, Jaeger riflemen, among the first Hessian troops hired by the British crown, deployed to America. These “Jaeger” companies, German for “hunter”, contained specially trained riflemen experienced at operating in forestlands and mountains. The most famous of these units, the 2nd Jaeger Company under Capt. Johann Ewald, arrived in New York on October 14, 1776, and saw its first action just nine days later. As with most Jaegers, Ewald’s men saw act5ion in every campaign in the war.

Although described as a corps, the Jaegers operated in small groups of not more than 30 riflemen, and served alongside conventional British or Hessian smoothbore-armed infantry units.[4]


October 14th,1777




October 14, 1806
Carl Philipp Gottfried (Gottieb) von Clausewitz[1] ( /ˈklaʊzəvɪts/; July 1, 1780 – November 16, 1831[2]) was a Prussian soldier and military theorist who stressed the moral (in modern terms, "psychological") and political aspects of war. His most notable work, Vom Kriege (On War), was unfinished at his death.

Clausewitz espoused a romantic conception of warfare, though he also had at least one foot planted firmly in the more rationalist ideas of the European Enlightenment. His thinking is often described as Hegelian because of his references to dialectical thinking but, although he probably knew Hegel, Clausewitz's dialectic is quite different and there is little reason to consider him a disciple. He stressed the dialectical interaction of diverse factors, noting how unexpected developments unfolding under the "fog of war" (i.e., in the face of incomplete, dubious, and often completely erroneous information and high levels of fear, doubt, and excitement) call for rapid decisions by alert commanders. He saw history as a vital check on erudite abstractions that did not accord with experience. In contrast to Antoine-Henri Jomini, he argued that war could not be quantified or reduced to mapwork, geometry, and graphs. Clausewitz had many aphorisms, of which the most famous is that "War is the continuation of Politik by other means" (Politik being variously translated as 'policy' or 'politics,' terms with very different implications), a description that has won wide acceptance.[3]



Von Clausewitz's Christian names are sometimes given in non-German sources as "Carl Philipp Gottlieb" or "Carl Maria", because of reliance on mistaken source material, conflation with his wife's name, Marie, or mistaken assumptions about German orthography. He spelled his own given name with a "C" in order to identify with the classical Western tradition; writers who wrongly use "Karl" are seeking to emphasize his German identity. "Carl Philipp Gottfried" appears on Clausewitz's tombstone and thus is most likely to be correct.



Clausewitz served during the Jena Campaign as aide-de-camp to Prince August. At the Battle of Jena-Auerstedt on October 14, 1806 – when Napoleon invaded Prussia and defeated the massed Prussian-Saxon army commanded by Karl Wilhelm Ferdinand, Duke of Brunswick – he was captured, one of the 25,000 prisoners captured that day as the Prussian army disintegrated. He was 26. Clausewitz was held prisoner in France from 1807 to 1808. Returning to Prussia, he assisted in the reform of the Prussian army and state.




Marie von Clausewitz (neé, Countess von Brühl)



On December 10, 1810 he married the socially prominent Countess Marie von Brühl and socialized with Berlin's literary and intellectual elite. She was a member of the noble German von Brühl family originating in Thuringia. They first met in 1803.



Opposed to Prussia's enforced alliance with Napoleon I, he left the Prussian army and served in the Russian army from 1812 to 1813 during the Russian Campaign, including the Battle of Borodino. Like many Prussian officers serving in Russia, he joined the Russian-German Legion in 1813. In the service of the Russian Empire, Clausewitz helped negotiate the Convention of Tauroggen (1812), which prepared the way for the coalition of Prussia, Russia, and the United Kingdom that ultimately defeated Napoleon and his allies.



In 1815, the Russo-German Legion was integrated into the Prussian Army and Clausewitz re-entered Prussian service. He was soon appointed chief of staff of Johann von Thielmann's III Corps. In that capacity, he served at the Battle of Ligny and the Battle of Wavre during the Waterloo Campaign in 1815. The Prussians were defeated at Ligny (south of Mont-Saint-Jean and the village of Waterloo) by an army led personally by Napoleon, but Napoleon's failure to destroy the Prussian forces led to his defeat a few days later at the Battle of Waterloo, when the Prussian forces unexpectedly arrived on his right flank late in the afternoon to support the Anglo-Dutch forces pressing his front.



Clausewitz was promoted to Major-General in 1818 and appointed director of the Kriegsakademie, where he served until 1830. In that year the outbreak of several revolutions around Europe and a crisis in Poland appeared to presage another major European war. Clausewitz was appointed chief of staff of the only army Prussia was able to mobilize, which was sent to the Polish border. He died after commanding the Prussian army's efforts to construct a cordon sanitaire to contain the great cholera outbreak in 1831 (the first time cholera had appeared in Europe, causing a continent-wide panic).



His widow published his magnum opus on the philosophy of war in 1832, on which he had started working in 1816, but had not completed.[5] She wrote the preface for On War and by 1834 had published several of his books. She died two years later.



In popular culture



Literature


•1945: In the Horatio Hornblower novel The Commodore, by C. S. Forester, the protagonist meets Clausewitz during the events surrounding the defence of Riga
•1945: In That Hideous Strength by C. S. Lewis, Lord Feverstone (Dick Devine) defends rudely cutting off another professor by saying "[...] but then I take the Clausewitz view. Total war is the most humane in the long run."
•1955: In Ian Fleming's novel Moonraker, James Bond reflects that he has achieved Clausewitz's first principle in securing his base, though this base is a relationship for intelligence purposes and not a military installation.
•1977: In The Wars by Timothy Findley, a novel about a 19-year-old Canadian officer who serves in World War I, one of his fellow soldiers reads On War, and occasionally quotes some of its passages.
•2000: In the Ethan Stark military science fiction book series by John G. Hemry, Clausewitz is often quoted by Private Mendoza and his father Lieutenant Mendoza to explain events that unfold during the series.
•2004: Bob Dylan mentions Clausewitz on pages 41 and 45 of his Chronicles: Volume One, saying he had "a morbid fascination with this stuff," that "Clausewitz in some ways is a prophet" and reading Clausewitz can make you "take your own thoughts a little less seriously." Dylan says that Vom Kriege was one of the books he looked through among those he found in his friend's personal library as a young man playing at The Gaslight Cafe in Greenwich Village.



Film


•1962: In Lawrence of Arabia, General Allenby (Jack Hawkins) contends to T. E. Lawrence (Peter O'Toole) that "I fight like Clausewitz, you fight like Saxe", to which Lawrence replies, "We should do very well indeed, shouldn't we?"
•1977: In Sam Peckinpah's Cross of Iron, Feldwebel Steiner (James Coburn) has an ironic conversation in the trenches in gaps in hostilities with the advancing Red Army with his comrade, Cpl. Schnurrbart, in which they refer to German philosophers and their views on war. Schnurrbart: " ...and von Clausewitz said, 'war is a continuation of state policy by other means.'" "Yes," Steiner says, overlooking the trenches, " ...by other means."
•1995: In Crimson Tide, the naval officers of the nuclear submarine have a discussion about the meaning of the quote "War is a continuation of politics by other means." The executive officer (Denzel Washington) contends that the interpretation of Clausewitz's ideas by the captain (Gene Hackman) is too simplistic.
•2004: In Downfall, set during the last days of the Third Reich, Hitler initiates Operation Clausewitz, as part of the last defence of Berlin
•2007: In Lions for Lambs, during a military briefing in Afghanistan Lt. Col. Falco (Peter Berg) says: "Remember your von Clausewitz: 'Never engage the same enemy for too long or he will ...'", "adapt to your tactics", completes another soldier [23]
•2009: In Law Abiding Citizen, Clausewitz is frequently quoted by Clyde Shelton (Gerard Butler), the main character[5]

Our subject Robert Craig was married to Miss Sarah Godlove in 1841, in Perry County, Ohio; she was the daughter of Adam and Susannah (Tattman) Godlove), the former was born in Virginia, and his wife in Maryland. They were married and lived in Ohio, where they were early settlers of Perry County. They reared the following children: Sarah, Josiah, Bartholomew, Lizzie, Samuel, Catherine, Mary, Maggie and Benjamin, all of whom were born in Ohio. John was born in Iowa after the family came to this State in 1843.

Samuel was a soldier in the 10th Iowa, and enlisted at the beginning of the war. He fell at the battle Winchester, pierced by seventeen balls. The family moved to Iowa with teams, and settled on a small farm west of Yatton. There was only one log house there at that date, and it has long since been torn down.[12]

October 14, 1874 On the 11th of July, Gen. Irvine informed Washington that Knight had "demolished" his Indian keeper and returned to Fort Pitt. Dr. Knight remained at the fort as surgeon of the 7th Virginia regiment until the close of the war. October 14, 1784, he married Polly Stephenson, daughter of Col. Richard Stephenson, Col. Crawford's half brother; subsequently moved to Shelbyville, Ky., where he died March 12, 1838, the father of ten children. His wife died July 31, 1839. Dr. Knight drew from our government a pension. After his death his children applied for whatever was due under the act of 1832.

Knight was faithful and true, a noble character.[16]

Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Bowdish are rejoicing over a fine baby girl that came to their home yesterday, October 13, 1915.The little miss tipped the scales at 8 ½ pounds. (Winton Goodlove note:This was Mary Catherine).


October 14, 1920: As its first order of business, the new board decided to visit a number of consolidated schools throughout northeast Iowa in an effort to select an appropriate school building design for Buck Creek. Although the leaders of the movement had never publicized the matter, there was never any doubt about where the school would be located. It would be built on the hill just west of the church on land that had already been purchased for that purpose by the trustees of the Buck Creek Church. Ironically, this was the site of the Ku Klux Klan cross Burning on the eve of the election. All but one of the teachers then teaching in the soon to be closed country schools was retained for the winter term. The only exception was Katherine McDonald, the teacher in the Buck Creek country school and a Catholic. The board also arranged for the purchase of coal and other materials needed to operate the country schools until the new school was ready for use in fall 1921. It retained an architect to draw up the blueprints for the consolidated school building, and it entered into a contract with a bond company for the printing and issuing of the school bonds.[17]


October 14, 1933 Germany withdraws from the Disarmanent Conference and announces its resignation from the League of Nations.[18]
