March 23, 1369: King Pedro of Castile who employed Abraham ibn Zaral as his physicinan was beheaded by his rival and brother, Henry of Trastamara marking the end of their civil war for control of the kingdom. . Henry “was as hostile to the Jews as Pedro had been friendly. His long-cherished hatred of his brother burst forth when a Jew named Jacob, an intimate of the king, praised the latter excessively to Henry. In his fury he stabbed the Jew with a dagger. Pedro would have revenged himself on Henry forthwith, but his courtiers restrained him by force. Henry saved himself by a hasty flight. This was the immediate cause of the civil war which brought untold suffering upon the Jews of the country. . He was as hostile to the Jews as Pedro had been friendly. His long-cherished hatred of his brother burst forth when a Jew named Jacob, an intimate of the king, praised the latter excessively to Henry. In his fury he stabbed the Jew with a dagger. Pedro would have revenged himself on Henry forthwith, but his courtiers restrained him by force. Henry saved himself by a hasty flight. This was the immediate cause of the civil war which brought untold suffering upon the Jews of the country. During their struggle for control,Henry continuously depicted Peter as "King of the Jews," and had some success in taking advantage of popular Castilian resentment towards the Jews. During his reign, “ Henry of Trastamara instigated pogroms beginning a period of anti-Jewish riots and forced conversions[citation needed] in Castile that lasted approximately from 1370 to 1390.”[1]

March 23, 1475: Trent (Italy) was the scene of one of the more notorious ritual murder libels. A Franciscan monk, Bernardinus of Feltre, had recently arrived and began preaching Lent sermons against the Jews. A week before Easter a boy by the name of Simon drowned in the river Adige. The monk charged the Jews with using the body for its blood. The body washed up a few days later near the house of a Jew who brought it to the Bishop Honderbach. Seventeen Jews were tortured for over two weeks. Some confessed while being tortured and 6 Jews were burnt. Two more were strangled. A temporary hiatus was called by Pope Sixtus IV, but after five years the trial was reopened and 5 more Jews were executed. The papal inquest agreed with the trial, Simon was beatified, and all Jews were expelled for 300 years. The trial served as the basis for anti-Semitic writings for hundreds of years. Only in 1965 was Simon de –beatified. [2]

1476: End of the Medici family as bankers to the papacy, William Caxton sets up printing press at Westminster, William Caston sets up printing press, William Caxton sets up first press in Londin. [3]

March 23, 1490: The first dated edition of Maimonides' “Mishneh Torah” was published. Maimonides was born in Cordova, Spain in 1135. His family fled as one group of Moslem rulers replaced another. Eventually he settled in Egypt where he was a distinguished physician for the ruling Moslems as well as head of the Egyptian community. According to one source he provided medical advice for both Saladin and Richard the Lionhearted. He died in 1204 and is buried in Tiberias in Israel. Simply put, the Mishneh Torah was "an orderly restructuring of the entire legal literature of the Talmud." The Mishneh Torah (Repetition of the Law) is "one of the most distinguished codes of Jewish law...”[4]



March 23rd, 1534: - Aragonese legal code formally recognised[5]



March 23, 1555: Pope Julius III passed away. Despite opposition, Julius allowed Jewish refugees from Spain settle in Ancona in northeast Italy. He spoke out against the blood libel and opposed baptism of Jewish children without the approval of their parents. At the same time, he was unable to stand up to the power of the Inquisitor General from the Holy Office and he acquiesced in the burning of numerous copies of the Talmud and other Jewish books.[6]



March 23, 1713: The Tuscarora Indian War ends with the Indians fleeing after the capture of their fort in South Carolina.[7]

Spring 1770: Ebenezer Zane persuaded a number of settlers, of a like spirit with himself, to accompany him to the wilderness. Believing it unsafe to take their families with them at once, they left them at Red Sone on the Monongahela river, while the men , including Colonel Zne, his brothers Silas, Andrew, Jonathan and Isaac, the Wetzels, McCollocks, Bennets, Metzars and others, pushed on ahead.

The country through which they passed was one tangled, almost impenetrable forest; the axe of the pioneer had never sounded in this region, where every rod of the way might harbor some unknown danger.

These reckless bordermen knew not the meaning of fear, to all, daring adventure was welcome, and the screech of a redskin and the ping of a bullet were familiar sounds; to the Wetels, McCollochs and Jonathan Zane the hunting of Indians was the most thrilling passion of their lives; indeed, the Wetzels,, particularly, knew no other occupation. They had attained a wonderful skill with the rifle; long practice had rendered their senses as acute as those of the fox. Skilled in every variety of woodcraft, with lynx eyes ever on the alert for detecting a trail, or the curling smoke of some camp fire, or the minutest sign of an enemy, these men stole onward through the forest with the cautious but dogged and persistent determination that was characteristic of the settler.

They at length climbed the commanding bnluff overlooking the majestic river, and as they gazed out on the undulating and uninterrupted area of green, their hearts beat high with hope.[9]



March 23, 1774: Valentine Crawford arrived at Washington’s place.[10]

Valentine Crawford to George Washington

[MOUNT VERNON],[11] March 23, 1775.

DEAR COLONEL :—I came to this Place on Friday evening, and I should have come down sooner, but I did not receive your drafts till a few days before I started, and thinking you might be gone to the Congress, I thought it advisable to send them to you by Captain Rutherford; as you might meet with Mr. Lewis there, and have time to examined by him yourself.

I hope you will excuse my not bringing down my accounts and expense in transacting your business over the mountains, as it is not in my power to settle till I have some conversation with yourself, and then I will.

I am in great hopes of settling things to your satisfaction. I am informed there have been vicious stories told you in regard to my conduct; but had you been on the spot yourself it would imave confused you to have heard time complaints of the distressed, poor people who came to my fort. I frequently desired Mr. Simpson to take the servants and employ them at work at your mill.[12] .

I sent two men after the man that ran away, and found each of them horses, and money to bear their expenses. One went to Baltimore, and time other down through Virginia. They were gone three weeks, and I could not get the exact amount of their expenses, but it will be very moderate.

I expect to be down in June, and I will, I trust, settle everything to your satisfaction. As you’ have beeum a good friend to me amid all my family, I am in hopes you shall never suffer for your kindness. I am fully convinced that it will be in my power to pay every man 1 owe a shilling by next fall, if my life is spared. If I can not raise that money for Fowler, I will, you may depend, deliver myself up to jail, and clear you. But you may depend, with out some important accident happens me, 1 slmail be able to ~ a considerable sum by fail, as I hiav got so much good lurid for sale, that will command money.

I should have waited until you came home, but I want to get home immediately; and. you may depend that every assistance in my power I will give Mr. Cleveland, in helping him out or down the river. When I come down in June, I will bring a statement of everything I did for you. I hope to give you full satisfaction for every act of friendship done for me. I am, etc.

P. S.—I have left your honor a belt of peace, which I hope you will receive from yours, V. C.[13]

March 23, 1775: Patrick Henry of Virginia declares in a speech, “Give me liberty or give me death.”[14] During a speech before the second Virginia Convention, Patrick Henry responds to the increasingly oppressive British rule over the American colonies by declaring, "I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!" Following the signing of the American Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, Patrick Henry was appointed governor of Virginia by the Continental Congress.

The first major American opposition to British policy came in 1765 after Parliament passed the Stamp Act, a taxation measure to raise revenues for a standing British army in America. Under the banner of "no taxation without representation," colonists convened the Stamp Act Congress in October 1765 to vocalize their opposition to the tax. With its enactment on November 1, 1765, most colonists called for a boycott of British goods and some organized attacks on the customhouses and homes of tax collectors. After months of protest, Parliament voted to repeal the Stamp Act in March 1765.

Most colonists quietly accepted British rule until Parliament's enactment of the Tea Act in 1773, which granted the East India Company a monopoly on the American tea trade. Viewed as another example of taxation without representation, militant Patriots in Massachusetts organized the "Boston Tea Party," which saw British tea valued at some 10,000 pounds dumped into Boston harbor. Parliament, outraged by the Boston Tea Party and other blatant destruction of British property, enacted the Coercive Acts, also known as the Intolerable Acts, in the following year. The Coercive Acts closed Boston to merchant shipping, established formal British military rule in Massachusetts, made British officials immune to criminal prosecution in America, and required colonists to quarter British troops. The colonists subsequently called the first Continental Congress to consider a united American resistance to the British.

With the other colonies watching intently, Massachusetts led the resistance to the British, forming a shadow revolutionary government and establishing militias to resist the increasing British military presence across the colony. In April 1775, Thomas Gage, the British governor of Massachusetts, ordered British troops to march to Concord, Massachusetts, where a Patriot arsenal was known to be located. On April 19, 1775, the British regulars encountered a group of American militiamen at Lexington, and the first volleys of the American Revolutionary War were fired.[15]

March 23, 1861: During the Civil War, most of Hardy County's residents were loyal to the South. The Hardy County Blues, commanded by Captain John C.B. Mullin, became part of the 25th Virginia Infantry under the command of Colonel J. M. Heck. The Hardy Greys, from Moorefield, was organized on March 23, 1861. In June of 1861, it was incorporated as Company F of the 33rd Virginia Infantry under the command of Brigadier General Thomas J. Jackson. Shortly after its formation, the 33rd Virginia fought at the battle of First Manassas (Bull Run). This is where General Jackson earned his famous nickname, "Old Stonewall."

Initially, the Union Army held the advantage and while retreating with his brigade toward high ground, Confederate General Bernard Bee of South Carolina (Jackson's friend from their years together at West Point) spotted Jackson and his troops who had already taken position on the hill. Bee reportedly shouted to his troops, "Look, men, there is Jackson standing like a stone wall! Let us determine to die here, and we will conquer!" His troops then joined Jackson's, held off an assault from the Union Army, and later counterattacked the Union forces and won the day. [25]

March 23, 1919: 1919: Benito Mussolini founded his Fascist political movement in Milan, Italy.[28] Benito Mussolini, an Italian World War I veteran and publisher of Socialist newspapers, breaks with the Italian Socialists and establishes the nationalist Fasci di Combattimento, named after the Italian peasant revolutionaries, or "Fighting Bands," from the 19th century. Commonly known as the Fascist Party, Mussolini's new right-wing organization advocated Italian nationalism, had black shirts for uniforms, and launched a program of terrorism and intimidation against its leftist opponents.

In October 1922, Mussolini led the Fascists on a march on Rome, and King Emmanuel III, who had little faith in Italy's parliamentary government, asked Mussolini to form a new government. Initially, Mussolini, who was appointed prime minister at the head of a three-member Fascist cabinet, cooperated with the Italian parliament, but aided by his brutal police organization he soon became the effective dictator of Italy. In 1924, a Socialist backlash was suppressed, and in January 1925 a Fascist state was officially proclaimed, with Mussolini as Il Duce, or "The Leader."

Mussolini appealed to Italy's former Western allies for new treaties, but his brutal 1935 invasion of Ethiopia ended all hope of alliance with the Western democracies. In 1936, Mussolini joined Nazi leader Adolf Hitler in his support of Francisco Franco's Nationalist forces in the Spanish Civil War, prompting the signing of a treaty of cooperation in foreign policy between Italy and Nazi Germany in 1937. Although Adolf Hitler's Nazi revolution was modeled after the rise of Mussolini and the Italian Fascist Party, Fascist Italy and Il Duce proved overwhelmingly the weaker partner in the Berlin-Rome Axis during World War II.

In July 1943, the failure of the Italian war effort and the imminent invasion of the Italian mainland by the Allies led to a rebellion within the Fascist Party. Two days after the fall of Palermo on July 24, the Fascist Grand Council rejected the policy dictated by Hitler through Mussolini, and on July 25 Il Duce was arrested. Fascist Marshal Pietro Badoglio took over the reins of the Italian government, and in September Italy surrendered unconditionally to the Allies. Eight days later, German commandos freed Mussolini from his prison in the Abruzzi Mountains, and he was later made the puppet leader of German-controlled northern Italy. With the collapse of Nazi Germany in April 1945, Mussolini was captured by Italian partisans and on April 29 was executed by firing squad with his mistress, Clara Petacci, after a brief court-martial. Their bodies, brought to Milan, were hanged by the feet in a public square for all the world to see.[29]



March 23, 1938: The Jewish community organizations in Germany lose their official status and are no longer recognized by the government.[30]



March 23, 1941: at Gurs on March 23, 1941 Johanna Gottlieb born May 24, 1859, from Ebernburg, died.[31] March 23, 1941: Johanna Gottlieb, Maiden name Kahn.May 24, 1859 in Ebernburg (Birthplace, last place of residence not known.) Resided Ebernburg. Deportation: 1940, Gurs. Gurs (Last known whereabouts.) Todesdaten: March 23, 1941[32]



March 23, 1942: Informing the German Foreign Ministry of planned deportations, (from France) to ensure against possible diplomatic obstacles, Eichmann writes; “We inform you that in addition to the evacuation planned for March 23, 1942 of 1,000 Jews from Compiegne, 5,000 Jews identified by the Gestapo should, after a brief delay, be evacuated from France to the concentration camp of Auschwitz (Upper Silesia). I must also ask your agreement for this case.” On March 20, the Foreign Ministry replies that it has no objection to the deportation of the 6,000 Jews to Auschwitz.[33]



March 23, 1942: Of the approximately 4,000 remaining Jews in Lublin, Poland 2,500 were massacred and the rest of them were deported to Majdanek for extermination. At the start of the war, 40,000 of the 125,000 inhabitants of Lublin had been Jewish.[34]



March 23, 1943: ‘Second Deportation- The second deportation took place on the night of March 23. It numbered 770. Naturally it included a sizable number of former army volunteers, men who had been wounded in action, and even some who had been decorated.

‘The number of deportees thus far was 1,745, but the required number was 1,850. Consequently, the quota had to be filled en route. According to some information I have not been able to verify, it appears that four hundred persons who had been rounded up at Nerxon were put on the train that left Oloron on March 3. At any rate, it appears that the number of 1,850 was considerably exceeded.

“Among the countless testimonies from Jews as to their personal sufferings, we found one from a Hungariran interned at Gurs that confirms the above report:

‘Deportations began in early February 1943. A large number, about 150, of guards suddenly appeared. They were assigned to the blocks of huts in which were penned internees from other camps, especially for the one of Nexon. The deportation was to include all men of German, Polish, Austrian and Czech nationality up to the age of sixty five. At that time I was sixty four years , nine and a half months old; but fortuanately I was able, on the strength of my birth certificate, to pass myself off as a Hungarian, and in the general confusion the details were never checked out. ‘Among the deportees were a large number of Poles and Czechs who had fought in the French army or in the Foreign Legion. These too were handed over to the Germans. The fellow in the bed next to mine, a Germnan rabbi, Dr. Rosenwasser, was to be sixty five in six days, but he was deported just the same.

‘The deportation went on for two days. Two guards came after each of the ‘called’ and forced him to pack in five minutes, so impossible a task that many possessions were left behind.

‘ The internees destined for deportation were taken under heavgy guard to Block E, each carrying his belongings. Those who were allowed to remain in the hell of Gurs were invied by the deportees as the luckiest of men. All through the night you could hear women weeping in despair, for many had not time even to say good-bye to their sons and husbands. Several could not find outr whether their husbands had been deported. My wife did not sleep a wink for two nights for fear that I had been deported. On the day after the deportation the women were allowed to visit our block, and their sobs and cries whenb they saw their husbands’ beds empty were dreadful to hear.”[35]



March 23, 1943: In France, 4000 Jews were deported from Marseilles, interned briefly at Drancy, France, and then deported to Sobibór[36]



March 23, 1943: TheArchbishop of Canterbury William Temple stood up in front of the House of Lords in London and pleaded with the British government to help the Jews of Europe. "We at this moment have upon us a tremendous responsibility," he said. "We stand at the bar of history, of humanity, and of God." Ever since news of Hitler's plan to annihilate the Jews of Europe reached the public in late 1942, British church leaders and members of Parliament had been agitating for something to be done. Temple's plea marked the culmination of the clamoring.[37]



March 23, 1944: At Ioannina in Greece, 1,860 Jews were seized by the Nazis and deported to Auschwitz.[38]



March 23, 1945: Eva Gotlieb, 18 Jahre; Todesort: Ravensbruck, verstorben, March 23, 1945. [39]

[7] On This Day in America by John Wagman.


[8] On this day GW gave Crawford £8 15%. Pennsylvania currency to buy surveying instruments in Philadelphia and £57 Pennsylvania currency to survey and obtain rights to some tracts of land along the Monongahela and Youghiogheny rivers for him (t.~ncu A, 316). Crawford later returned the £57 when doubt arose over whether those lands would be in Pennsylvania after the colony’s western boundary was established, but GW continued to be interested in the area for some time (William Crawford to CW, May 5, 1770. DLC:GW). That interest was apparently shared by Harrison Manley, on whose account GW today advanced Crawford £‘7 Virginia currency plus £‘o Virginia currency for Lund Washington and £15 Pennsylvania currency for Samuel Washington (LEDGER A, 1)5. 3)3. 3)5).

[26] Several hundred …fair-weather patriots, some of whom were doubtless motivated by hopes of being able to dispose of their cotton took the oath of allegiance, having been assured that the Federal occupation of the country was permanent in nature. There were also some enlistments in the Union army by genuine pro-Union refugees and jayhawkers. (Red River Campaign, Politics and Cotton in the Civil War. By Ludwell H. Johnson, 1958, pp. 109-110.)
