This Day…

December 18, 1271: Kublai Khan renames his empire "Yuan" (元 yuán), officially marking the start of the Yuan Dynasty of China. Reportedly, Marco Polo found several influential Jews at the court of Kubla Khan. These Jews would have been descendants of Persian Jews who probably came to China the 11th century as merchants. In the 13th century, Marco Polo, traveling in China spoke of meeting Jews or hearing about them during his travels in the Middle Kingdom. Polo recorded that Kublai Khan himself celebrated the festivals of the Muslims, Christians and Jews alike. Historical sources also describe Jewish communities at various cities, including Hangzhou, Guangzhou, Ningbo, and Yangzhou. Only the community in Kaifeng (Henan Province) survived since its founding around 240 BCE[1]

1272: In 1272, the papal repudiation of the blood libel was repeated by Pope Gregory X, who also ruled that thereafter any such testimony of a Christian against a Jew could not be accepted unless it is confirmed by another Jew. Unfortunately, these proclamations from the highest sources were not effective in altering the beliefs of the Christian majority and libels continued. [2]

December 18, 1768

"The Reverend Daniel MacKinnon was admitted a Deacon by the Bishop of London on the 18th of December, 1768, at the Chapel Royal, St. James, and three days later was admitted Priest at the same place. Immediately after this, he went out as a Missionary to the Plantations of Maryland. It is further recorded that he was very active in founding Churches in that Colony, and visited England subsequently to solicit funds and books for that purpose. After accomplishing this, he embarked for America, but his ship was lost at sea. No traces of her passengers or crew were ever found. His only daughter married Thomas Rogers, of Maryland. Some have thought that Daniel is identical with Donald, youngest son of John of Mishinish, the change of name being not uncommon on emigrations, but there is no proof." [3]

December 18, 1778: Although Canada ceased to be a direct military target, it continued to play an important role as a haven for Loyalists and slaves fleeing from Patriots less concerned with other peoples' liberties than their own. On December 18, 1778, a force of New Jersey and New York Loyalists, The King's Orange Rangers, traveled to Liverpool, Nova Scotia, to help in its defense against Patriot privateers, privately owned ships that used pirate tactics to disrupt British shipping. The Rangers remained until August 23, 1783. Nova Scotia ultimately attracted 30,000 American Loyalists, one-tenth of which were fleeing African slaves. Of the slaves, one third eventually resettled in Sierra Leone. White Loyalists moved to Canada to flee the abuse of Patriot neighbors, African slaves came to British Canada in order to gain freedom from their Patriot owners.[4]

On December 18, 1776, both houses of the General Assembly of Vir-

ginia passed a resolution that it was expedient and wise to remove as

much as possible all causes of future controversy ; and " to quiet the

minds of the people that may be affected thereby, and to take from

our common enemies an opportunity of fomenting mutual distrust and

jealousy, the commonwealth ought to offer such reasonable terms of

accommodation, (even if the loss of some territory is incurred thereby),

as may be cordially accepted by our sister State, and an end put to all

future dispute by a firm and permanent agreement and settlement. ' '

The resolutions then proceeded to authorize the Virginia delegates in

Congress to propose to Pennsylvania that a line be drawn from the

Maryland corner on Mason and Dixon's line due north to parallel of

latitude 40°, and thence the southern boundary of Pennsylvania was to

be run full five degrees of longitude west from the Delaware River, and

from the end of that line the western boundary should be run corre-

sponding with the meanderings of the Delaware River on the eastern

boundary. This line would have given to Virginia a large part of

what is now Fayette county, all of Greene county, and quite a portion

of Washington and of other counties to the north of it. Of course

Pennsylvania could not accept this offer, though during 1777 and 1778

negotiations were made through the Virginia delegates ; with such

little interest, however, that the papers became lost. [5]

December 18, 1799: On this date in 1799, George Washington's funeral was conducted in Masonic fashion, at Mount Vernon, Virginia[6]

"... the [French] government received the news of death of
Washington who had died ... This death was announced to
the Consular Guard by the following order:
“Washington is dead ! This great man fought the tyrants ...
His memory will be always dear to the French people,
as to all free men ...”
St.Hilaire - "History of the Imperial Guard" [7]

Ancestor Joseph LeClere was said to have been one of Napoleons Bodyguards.

By 1800, Jews owned less than 1 percent of the land around Pittsburgh.[12] In 1800, except for the highly successful Simon and Gratz families, most of Pennsylvania’s Jews were of humble economic means.

Touching the manufacture of iron in Dunbar about 1800 by Isaac Meason it has been written: “The difficulties under which the ironmaster labored in those days were curious ones. Not only was he compelled to work with crude machinery and imperfect knowledge, but his efforts to realize on his labors were Herculean. The iron was run into numerous castings suitable for frontier life, or manufactured at small forges into the merchant iron of those days. These products were hauled in teams from fifteen to thirty miles across the country to Brownsville, on the Monongahela River, and there loaded into flat boats. These floated down the Ohio and Mississippi. The iron was exchanged for corn, pork, whisky, etc., which were carried on to New Orleans and traded for sugar and molasses. These latter commodities were sent around by sea to Baltimore, and in turn exchanged for groceries dry goods, etc., which loaded on Conestoga wagons, were hauled three hundred miles over the mountains to the furnaces whence the iron had started many months before.” An old furnaceman told that he once conducted business continuously for three years, and saw duing that time only ten dollars in money. Another curious phase of that early life was the insertion of a clause in all contracts for labor that a certain quantity of whisky was to be allowed each day in addition to wages. A stoppage of whisky rations was about the only cause in those days that would precipitate a labor strike.[19]

1800: By the turn of the century as many as 200 wagons were leaving the east every day. It was a dangerous and lonely life. People looked for spiritual direction. But there were few churches on the expanding frontier.[20]
