November 24, 1190: Conrad of Montferrat
Conrad of Montferrat (or Conrad I of Jerusalem) (Italian: Corrado di Monferrato; Piedmontese: Conrà ëd Monfrà) (mid-1140s – 28 April 1192) was a northern Italian nobleman, one of the major participants in the Third Crusade. He was the de facto King of Jerusalem, by marriage, from November 24, 1190, but officially elected only in 1192, days before his death. He was also marquis of Montferrat from 1191.
|
Early life
Conrad was the second son of Marquis William V of Montferrat, "the Elder", and his wife Judith of Babenberg. He was a first cousin of Frederick Barbarossa, Holy Roman Emperor, Louis VII of France and Leopold V of Austria.
Conrad was born in Montferrat, which is now a region of Piedmont, in northwest Italy. The exact place and year are unknown. He is first mentioned in a charter in 1160, when serving at the court of his maternal uncle, Conrad, Bishop of Passau, later Archbishop of Salzburg. (He may have been named after him, or after his mother's half-brother, Conrad III of Germany.)
A handsome man, with great personal courage and intelligence, he was described in the Brevis Historia Occupationis et Amissionis Terræ Sanctæ ("A Short History of the Occupation and Loss of the Holy Land"):
Conrad was vigorous in arms, extremely clever both in natural mental ability and by learning, amiable in character and deed, endowed with all the human virtues, supreme in every council, the fair hope of his own side and a blazing lightning-bolt to the foe, capable of pretence and dissimulation in politics, educated in every language, in respect of which he was regarded by the less articulate to be extremely fluent. In one thing alone was he regarded as blameworthy: that he had seduced another's wife away from her living husband, and made her separate from him, and married her himself.[1]
(The last sentence alludes to his third marriage to Isabella of Jerusalem in 1190, for which see below.)
He was active in diplomacy from his twenties, and became an effective military commander, campaigning alongside other members of his family in the struggles with the Lombard League. He first married an unidentified lady, possibly a daughter of Count Meinhard I of Görz (It: Gorizia), before 1179, but she was dead by the end of 1186, without leaving any surviving issue.
Byzantine Empire
In 1179, following the family's alliance with Manuel I Comnenos, Conrad led an army against Frederick Barbarossa's forces, then commanded by the imperial Chancellor, Archbishop Christian of Mainz. He defeated them at Camerino in September, taking the Chancellor hostage. (He had previously been a hostage of the Chancellor.) He left the captive in his brother Boniface's care and went to Constantinople to be rewarded by the Emperor,[2] returning to Italy shortly after Manuel's death in 1180. Now in his mid-thirties, his personality and good looks made a striking impression at the Byzantine court: Niketas Choniates describes him as "of beautiful appearance, comely in life's springtime, exceptional and peerless in manly courage and intelligence, and in the flower of his body's strength".[3]
In the winter of 1186–1187, Isaac II Angelus offered his sister Theodora, as a bride to Conrad's younger brother Boniface, to renew the Byzantine alliance with Montferrat, but Boniface was married. Conrad, recently widowed, had taken the cross, intending to join his father in the Kingdom of Jerusalem; instead, he accepted Isaac's offer and returned to Constantinople in spring 1187. On his marriage, he was awarded the rank of Caesar. However, almost immediately, he had to help the Emperor defend his throne against a revolt, led by General Alexios Branas. According to Choniates, Conrad inspired the weak Emperor to take the initiative. He fought heroically in the battle in which Branas was killed, without shield or helmet, and wearing a linen cuirass instead of mail. He was slightly wounded in the shoulder, but unhorsed Branas, who was then killed and beheaded by his bodyguards.[4]
However, feeling that his service had been insufficiently rewarded, wary of Byzantine anti-Latin sentiment (his youngest brother Renier had been murdered in 1182) and of possible vengeance-seeking by Branas's family, Conrad set off for the Kingdom of Jerusalem in July 1187 aboard a Genoese merchant vessel. Some popular modern histories have claimed that he was fleeing vengeance after committing a private murder: this is due to a failure to recognise Branas's name, garbled into "Lyvernas" in the Old French Continuation of William of Tyre (sometimes known as The Chronicle of Ernoul), and Roger of Howden's abridgement of his own Gesta regis Henrici Secundi (formerly attributed to Benedict of Peterborough). Roger had initially referred to Conrad "having slain a prominent nobleman in a rebellion" — meaning Branas; in his Chronica, he condensed this to "having committed homicide", omitting the context.
Defence of Tyre
Conrad arrives at Tyre: marginal sketch in late 12C Brevis Historia Regni Hierosolymitani, a continuation of the Annals of Genoa (Bib. Nat. Française)
Conrad evidently intended to join his father, who held the castle of St Elias. He arrived first off Acre, which had recently fallen to Saladin (Ṣalāḥ ad-Dīn Yūsuf ibn Ayyūb), and so sailed north to Tyre, where he found the remnants of the Crusader army. After his victory at the Battle of Hattin over the army of Jerusalem, Saladin was on the march north, and had already captured Acre, Sidon, and Beirut. Raymond III of Tripoli and his stepsons, Reginald of Sidon and several other leading nobles who had escaped the battle had fled to Tyre, but most were anxious to return to their own territories to defend them. Raymond of Tripoli was in failing health, and died soon after he went home.
According to the Old French Continuation of William of Tyre, Reginald of Sidon had taken charge in Tyre and was in the process of negotiating its surrender with Saladin. Conrad allegedly threw Saladin's banners into the ditch, and made the Tyrians swear total loyalty to him. His rise to power seems to have been less dramatic in reality. Reginald went to refortify his own castle of Belfort on the Litani River. With the support of the established Italian merchant communities in the city, Conrad re-organised the defence of Tyre, setting up a commune, similar to those he had so often fought against in Italy.
When Saladin's army arrived they found the city well-defended and defiant. As the chronicler Ibn al-Athir wrote of the man the Arabs came to respect and fear as "al-Markis": "He was a devil incarnate in his ability to govern and defend a town, and a man of extraordinary courage". Tyre successfully withstood the siege, and desiring more profitable conquest, Saladin's army moved on south to Caesarea, Arsuf, and Jaffa. Meanwhile, Conrad sent Joscius, Archbishop of Tyre, to the West in a black-sailed ship, bearing appeals for aid. Arabic writers claimed that he also carried propaganda pictures to use in his preaching, including one of the horses of Saladin's army stabled (and urinating) in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, and another of a Saracen slapping Christ's face.
In November 1187, Saladin returned for a second siege of Tyre. Conrad was still in command of the city, which was now heavily fortified and filled with Christian refugees from across the north of the Kingdom of Jerusalem. This time Saladin opted for a combined ground and naval assault, setting up a blockade of the harbour. In an incident described by the Itinerarium Peregrinorum (which is generally hostile to Conrad), the Old French Continuation and Sicardus of Cremona's second chronicle (now known through quotations by Salimbene di Adam and Alberto Millioli), Saladin presented Conrad's aged father, William V of Montferrat, who had been captured at Hattin, before the walls of the city. He offered to release William and bestow great gifts upon Conrad if he surrendered Tyre. The old man told his son to stand firm, even when the Egyptians threatened to kill him. Conrad declared that William had lived a long life already, and aimed at him with a crossbow himself. Saladin allegedly said, "This man is an unbeliever and very cruel". But he had succeeded in calling Saladin's bluff: the old Marquis William was released, unharmed, at Tortosa in 1188, and returned to his son.
On December 30, Conrad's forces launched a dawn raid on the weary Egyptian sailors, capturing many of their galleys. The remaining Egyptian ships tried to escape to Beirut, but the Tyrian ships gave chase, and the Egyptians were forced to beach their ships and flee. Saladin then launched an assault on the landward walls, thinking that the defenders were still distracted by the sea battle. However, Conrad led his men in a charge out of the gates and broke the enemy: Hugh of Tiberias distinguished himself in the battle. Saladin was forced to pull back yet again, burning his siege engines and ships to prevent them from falling into enemy hands.
Struggle for the crown
The Near East, 1190, at the outset of the Third Crusade
In summer 1188, Saladin released Guy of Lusignan, the husband of Queen Sibylla of Jerusalem, from captivity. A year later, in 1189, Guy, accompanied by his brother Geoffrey, appeared at Tyre and demanded that Conrad hand over the keys to the city to him. Conrad refused this demand, and declared that Guy had forfeited his rights to be king of Jerusalem at the Battle of Hattin. He said that he was holding the city until the arrival of the kings from Europe. By this, he was invoking the terms of Baldwin IV's will, terms already broken by Guy and Sibylla: in the event of the death of his nephew Baldwin V it had been Baldwin's will that Baldwin V's "most rightful heirs" were to hold the regency until the succession could be settled by the King of England, the King of France, and the Holy Roman Emperor. Conrad would not allow Guy and Sibylla to enter the city, but did allow them to camp outside Tyre's walls with their retainers.
Conrad was persuaded by his cousin once-removed, Louis III, Landgraf of Thuringia, to join Guy in the Siege of Acre in 1189. The siege lasted for over two years. In summer 1190, Conrad travelled north to Antioch to lead another young kinsman, Frederick of Swabia, safely back to Acre with the remnants of his cousin Frederick Barbarossa's imperial army.
When Queen Sibylla and their daughters died of disease later that year, Guy, who had only held the crown matrimonial, no longer had a legal claim to the throne — but refused to step aside. The heiress of Jerusalem was Isabella of Jerusalem, Queen Sibylla's half-sister, who was married to Humphrey IV of Toron, of whom she was fond. However, Conrad had the support of her mother Maria Comnena and stepfather Balian of Ibelin, as well as Reginald of Sidon and other major nobles of Outremer. They obtained an annulment on the grounds that Isabella had been under-age at the time of the marriage and had not been able to give consent. Conrad then married Isabella himself, despite rumours of bigamy because of his marriage to Theodora, who was still alive. (However, Choniates, who usually expresses strong disapproval of marital/sexual irregularities, makes no mention of this. This may imply that a divorce had been effected from the Byzantine side before 1190, by which time it was obvious that Conrad would not be returning.) There were also objections on grounds of canonical 'incest', since Conrad's brother had previously been married to Isabella's half-sister, and Church law regarded this kind of "affinity" as equal to a blood-relationship. However, the Papal Legate, Ubaldo Lanfranchi, Archbishop of Pisa, gave his approval. (Opponents claimed he had been bribed.) The marriage, on November 24, 1190, was conducted by Philip of Dreux, Bishop of Beauvais — son of Conrad's cousin Robert I of Dreux. Conrad was now de jure King of Jerusalem. However, he had been wounded in battle only nine days previously, and returned with his bride to Tyre to recover. He came back to the siege in spring, making an unsuccessful sea-attack against the Tower of Flies at the harbour entrance.
As Guy was a vassal of Richard I of England for his lands in Poitou, Richard supported him in this political struggle, while Conrad was supported by his cousin Leopold V of Austria and cousin once-removed Philip II of France. Conrad acted as chief negotiator in the surrender of Acre, and raised the kings' banners in the city. Afterwards, the parties attempted to come to an agreement. Guy was confirmed as king of Jerusalem, and Conrad was made his heir. Conrad would retain the cities of Tyre, Beirut, and Sidon, and his heirs would inherit Jerusalem on Guy's death. In July 1191 Conrad's kinsman, King Philip, decided to return to France, but before he left he turned over half the treasure plundered from Acre to Conrad, along with all his prominent Muslim hostages. King Richard asked Conrad to hand over the hostages, but Conrad refused as long as he could. After he finally relented (since Richard was now leader of the Crusade), Richard had all the hostages killed. Conrad did not join Richard on campaign to the south, preferring to remain with his wife Isabella in Tyre — believing his life to be in danger. It was probably around this time that Conrad's father died.
During that winter, Conrad opened direct negotiations with Saladin, suspecting that Richard's next move would be to attempt to wrest Tyre from him and restore it to the royal domain for Guy. His primary aim was to be recognised as ruler in the north, while Saladin (who was simultaneously negotiating with Richard for a possible marriage between his brother Al-Adil and Richard's widowed sister Joan, Dowager Queen of Sicily) hoped to separate him from the Crusaders. The situation took a farcical turn when Richard's envoy, Isabella's ex-husband Humphrey of Toron, spotted Conrad's envoy, Reginald of Sidon, out hawking with Al-Adil. There seems to have been no conclusive agreement with Conrad, and Joan refused marriage to a Muslim.

Dear Sir: Captn. Crawford (who I expect will be the bearer of this letter to you has promised me, that so soon as he has rested a little from the fatigues of his last journey he will wait upon you in order to view the Lands you were offering for Sale. I have described the kind of Land to Capt: Crawford, I would choose to become the purchaser of, and if asufficient quantity thereof,is to be found in a body, I will take Fifteen thousand acres; the money to be paid so soon as there can be a legal title made to the acres, subject to a Quitrent (after the expiration of twenty years) of two shillings Sterlg. per hundred, and no more. If you incline to part with the above quantity of Land, on these terms, Capt. Crawford will proceed to view; and may, in company with any person you shall choose, run it out. It rests therefore with yourself to direct Mr. Crawford to go on the Land for the purposses above mentioned, or not; as it will be unnecessary for him to be at any further trouble if you do not incline to accept of the propossal.
If the Charter mm[4]takes place in the manner proposed, I presume there will be Surveyors appointed to different Districts, in order that the Land may be run out as fast as possible; in that case I wou!d beg leave to recommend Captn. Crawford to your friendly notice as a person who would be glad to be employed, and as one who I dare say wou’d discharge the duty with honesty and care; thr& your means I am persuaded he might come in for a share of this business. I am persuaded also, that he would not be wanting in gratitude for the favor with very great esteem, I remain, etc.
P.S. If you still decline being one of the proprietors of the new Governmt., is it not better to sell, than resign ? If so, what will you take for your share, provided your name stands confirm’d in the charter?[5]
MEMORANDUM FOR WILLIAM CRAWFORD
Col. Croghan and I being upon terms for a tract of 15,ooo acres of Land, I have agreed to give him five pound Sterling a hundred for this quantity, subject to a Quitrent of two shillings
rig, per hundred and no more, after the expiration of twenty trs, provided you shall like the Land upon Examination of it. aust therefore beg the favor of you to deliver the enclosed icr to him (first taking a copy of it that you may be the better iuainted with my proposal) and if he directs you to proceed :1 look at the Land; then to examine it with the greatest e and attention, that you may be a competent judge of quality and situation. The uncertain footing upon which the airs of this Country’9 seem to rest at present, will prevent from making this purchase, unless I can get Lands that are .liy fine, and valuable in their nature for this reason I wou’d have you proceed to run out the Land on my Acct. unless it ;wers the following description; 1st. If the Land is very hilly I broken, I shou’d not choose to be concern’d with it at any e, or at least, nothing wou’d induce me to do so, unless those Es were of the richest kind; the growth of which shall be Walnut, Cherry, and such other sorts of timber, as denote the st luxuriant Soil.
If, on the other hand, the Land shou’d be level, or at least vy, that is, in little risings, sufficient to lay it dry and fit for plough, I wou’d put up with a soil less fertile but in either e I shou’d expect the Tract to be well watered, and well timed with a sufficiency of meadow ground upon it. To descend more minute description of Land is unnecessary, as this is
&cient to form a lively Idea of the kind I want. t is not only probable, but what I expect, that Col. Croghan I say, that he will pass his Bond to convey a title to the Land, I therefore require the money to be paid on the strength reof. To this I object, and you have only to reply, that if he eptsof the proposal I make him, you are (in that case) to view the Land, and if you approve of it, then to run it out in the manner, and agreeably to the directions above. If the Land ~ equally good I wou’d choose to have it laid off as convenient t~ the Fort on the river as possible. I am etc.[6]

November 24, 1807
When the smoke of wood fires and burning leaves clings to the November mists in the Mohawk Valley, men still talk about Joseph Brant, the great Mohawk war captain who tried all his life to keep a foot in two worlds, the red and the white.
He refused to bend his knee to King George but gallantly kissed the hand of his queen. He had his portrait painted by the famous English painter George Romney. He was at ease drinking tea from fragile china cups, but could hurl a tomahawk with deadly accuracy. He was a graduate of the Indian school that later became Dartmouth College, and he translated the Bible into the Mohawk language, yet he could leave the Mohawk a blazing ruin from Fort Stanwix, near Rome, to the very outskirts of Schenectady. He was one of the greatest of American Indians; had he given his support to the struggling Continental army the course of our history would certainly have been changed.
But it would have been improbable if not impossible for Brant to wear a Continental tricorn;he was too vain and too closely allied with the Lords of the Valley to consider casting his lot with the humble Palatine Dutch farmers who talked so much of freedom. For Brant, they had the stink of cow dung about them; he was familiar with buckled shoes and cologne.
His decision to side with the British was tragic for the Iroquis Confederacy or Six Nations as it was called.That ancient confederation bound together by wisdom, skill at war, and diplomacy became helplessly divided when it was agreed that each nation should go its own way. In the past a declaration helplessly divided when it was agreed that each nation should go its own way. In the past a declation of war had to be voted unanimously. Some nations like the Oneida went with the Americans other tried to stay neutral, or like Brant’s Mohawk fought for the British.
Brant joined Colonel Barry St. Leger’s invasion of the Mohawk, one of the prongs of Burgoyn’s doomed campaign. The famous Battle or Oriskany, undoubtebly the bloodiest and most ferocious of the Revolution, was fought with Herkimer’s gallant farmer standing musket to musket with the King’s Own, the best of his Hessian gamekeeper-sharpshooters, and Brant’s painted warriors. Brant, who despised defeat,m led his Indians back to Frot Niagara, bitterly advising the British high command in Montreal that from now on he would fight his way.
For six years he led his Indian raiders into the Mohawk, again and again leaving the beautiful valley a sea of flames while the alarm bells in the tiny forts clanged frantically.
Some raids became classic atrocity stories of American wars: Cherry Valley, where women and children lay dead in the snow with Brant protesting fiercely that Walter Butler, who led Butler’s Rangers, was to blame; Wyoming, which gave birth to the celebrated eighteenth-century poem “Gertrude of Wyoming,” which pictures Brant as a murderousd fiend who slaughtered the innocent. But as it developed Brant was never there.
Following the Revolution Brant led his people, the first American DPs, across the border to settle in Canada.
He came in solitary glory to Philadelphia in 1792 to see Washington and his cabinet, but only after the other Iroquois chiefs, like Cornplanter and Red Jackt, had already left the capital. It was typicalof Brant. Humilyut was alien to the Mohawk; in fact, pride and arrogance were his major flaws.
Brant was no wigwam, story book Indian dressed in Buckskins staind with bear grease and smelling of a thousand campfires. He was educated, he wrote with the grace and lucidity that was far beyond many of the farmers he had fought against. His clothes were of the finest material, and in his luxurious home elaborate meals were served on crisp Irish linen. He had a host of slaves, as many as the aristocratic Virginians who would later rule the United States
He died in his fine home on Grand River, Ontario, November 24, 1807, whispering with his last breath: Have pity on the poor Indians.” Painter: Brant was painted by many famous artist; among them were Romney, Charles Willson Peal, George Catlin, and Wilhelm Berezy. It is not certain who painted this post-revolutionary portrait.[9]

On the Origin of Species, published on November 24, 1859, is a work of scientific literature by Charles Darwin which is considered to be the foundation of evolutionary biology. Its full title was On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life. For the sixth edition of 1872, the short title was changed to The Origin of Species. Darwin's book introduced the scientific theory that populations evolve over the course of generations through a process of natural selection. It presented a body of evidence that the diversity of life arose by common descent through a branching pattern of evolution. Darwin included evidence that he had gathered on the Beagle expedition in the 1830s and his subsequent findings from research, correspondence, and experimentation.
Various evolutionary ideas had already been proposed to explain new findings in biology. There was growing support for such ideas among dissident anatomists and the general public, but during the first half of the 19th century the English scientific establishment was closely tied to the Church of England, while science was part of natural theology. Ideas about the transmutation of species were controversial as they conflicted with the beliefs that species were unchanging parts of a designed hierarchy and that humans were unique, unrelated to other animals. The political and theological implications were intensely debated, but transmutation was not accepted by the scientific mainstream.
The book was written for non-specialist readers and attracted widespread interest upon its publication. As Darwin was an eminent scientist, his findings were taken seriously and the evidence he presented generated scientific, philosophical, and religious discussion. The debate over the book contributed to the campaign by T.H. Huxley and his fellow members of the X Club to secularisescience by promoting scientific naturalism. Within two decades there was widespread scientific agreement that evolution, with a branching pattern of common descent, had occurred, but scientists were slow to give natural selection the significance that Darwin thought appropriate. During the "eclipse of Darwinism" from the 1880s to the 1930s, various other mechanisms of evolution were given more credit. With the development of the modern evolutionary synthesis in the 1930s and 1940s, Darwin's concept of evolutionary adaptationthrough natural selection became central to modern evolutionary theory, now the unifying concept of the life sciences.[11]

The Dreyfus Affair in France. In 1898 Emile Zola publishes open letter ‘J’accuse!’[21]In France, Captain Alfred Dreyfus, falsely charged with espionage.

November 24, 1941 to April 20, 1945: A total of 140,937 Jews of Bohemia and Moravia are deported to Theresiuenstadt; 33,539 die and 88,196 are deported further.[24]
November 24, 1942: Rabbi Stephen S. Wise releases to the press the news contained in the Riegner cable.[25]
Analysis of nineteen important newspapers throughout the United States shows that only five placed the story on page 1, none of them prominently. Two of the nineteen did not carry the report at all.[26]
That same day, virtually all the newspapers found room on the front pate for essentially frivolous “human interest” stories. Of the nineteen newspapers, only ten reported Wise’s November 25 press conference at all, and then mostly inconspicuously on inside pages. [27]
In retrospect, it seems almost unbelievable that in Roosevelt’s press conferences (normally held twice a week) not one word was spoken about the mass killing of European Jews until almost a year later. The President had nothing to say to reporters on the matter, and no correspondent asked him about it.

I Get Email!
In a message dated 11/10/2010 2:05:46 P.M. Central Standard Time,
Jeffrey,
I'm sorry that I'm probably not going to be able to make that. I will welcome any report you want to share about your experience there, and I will let you know if I learn of any other FVJN folks who are going to be attending.
Best,
Nancy
Nancy, If the Interfaith meeting was a microcosm of the direction of world peace, then we all have a great deal to be thankful for. The tolerance of all religions was the underlying theme at the Interfaith Service. Afterwards a feast of biblical proportions was given by people of the host Mosque. Please continue to keep us informed about other events that you hear about. Thanks for all of your help in my quest to learn more of my Jewish ancestry. Enclosed are some photos Sherri and I took during our visit. Jeff Goodlove

During the year 1770, he was appointed one of the justices of the peace for his eounty—Cumberlaid, then the most westerly county of Pennsylvania. Li the autumn of that year, he received a visit, at his humble cabin upon the Youghioghcny, from Washington, who was then on a tour down the Ohio. Crawford accompanied his friend to the Great Kanawha—the party returning to ‘Stewart’s Crossings” late in November, whence Washington leisurely made his way back to Mt. Vernon.
