March 5, 363: Roman Emperor Julian moves from Antioch with an army of 90,000 to attack the Sassanid Empire, in a campaign which will bring to his own death. Julian followed Constantine to the throne and turned back his predecessor’s pro-Christian promulgations. Effectively, his decrees gave validity to other religions previously practiced in the Empire. On his was to fight the Sassanids, Julian gave orders that the Temple in Jerusalem should be rebuilt. His untimely death prevented this from happening. The Sassanids were the Persians of their day.[1]
March 5, 1179: The Third Lateran Council opens at Rome. At the end of the meeting the council would adopt the following as matters of canon law: "Jews should be slaves to Christians and at the same time treated kindly due of humanitarian considerations." ”The testimony of Christians against Jews is to be preferred in all cases where they use their own witnesses against Christians."[2]
Spring 1179: With only the shell of the Castle in place but confident it could withstand a Muslim assault Baldwins builders pack up and leave. The Templars rush to finish the job.
March 5, 1328(23 Adar): After the death of Charles the Fair, Pedro Olligoyen, a Franciscan friar, used the Jews as a scapegoat against French rule. Starting today, Shabbat, all the Jewish houses were pillaged and then destroyed. Approximately 6000 Jews were murdered with 20 survivors. Among the dead were parents and four younger brothers of Menachem ben Zerach, “then barely twenty years old who became a scholar of commanding influence.” He was saved by “a compassionate knight” who was a friend of the young Jew’s father[3].
Tuesday, March 5, 1754
Robert Stobo is given a commission as a Captain in the Virginia Regiment. Pay is to be eight shillings a day as compared to pay for the private soldiers at eight pence a day. He will head up one of the companies of fifty men and will be the regimental engineer, in charge of laying out roads and forts constructed by the Regiment. [5]
March 5, 1770
Our guide show’s us a circle of paving stones in the pavement below the balcony of the Old State House marking the site of the “horrid massacre”. In the first bloodshed of the Revolution five civilians were slain by British bullets in the“Bloody Massacre”: or “Boston Massacre” in King Street, Boston, March 5, 1770. The troops were removed, and relative calm restored. [7]
Here is the story of that fateful day…
On Monday, March 5, rumor had it there would again be trouble. The town was filled with people, mostly boys and yong men, milling about. Many were from out of town. In fact, the Massacre was only one of many arguments and brawls that broke out on Boston streets that day.
This one began innocently enough, with a dispute ober a barber bill. A wigmaker’s apprentice was pestering an army officetr, tailing him all ovber town, insulting him about the debt, which hade, in truth, been paid.
Eventually, the officer entered a tavern on King Street, opposite the State House. The apprentice continued his harassment outside;. A soldier on guard at the nearby Custom House jmoined the argument and struck the boy with the barrel of his musket. A crowd started to gather. Then somebody rang a nearby church bell, normally used as a fire alarm, and still more people turned out. Many were armed with sticks and clubs.
At the 29thRegiment’s nearby headquarters, Capt. Thomas Preston “walked up and down for near half an hour,” wondering what to do. The lone guard, surrounded by dozens of hostile citizens, was clearly in mortal danger.
At last Preston led a rescue party to the Custom House to bring the sentry back to safety. But once more, Preston and his eight men were themselves trapped and could not return. For fifteen minutes the crowd grew uglier, daring the soldiers to fire, cursing them, pressing closer and closer. Snowballs and rocks flew through the nigbht air. Suddenly a thrown club hit one of the redcoats, knocking him down on the ice. He stood up and fired at point-blank range. More shots quickly rang out.
Preston frantically ordered his men to cease fire. But three people lay dead in the street, tow others were dying, and several more were wounded.
The slain men were a cross section of Boston. One, Crispus Attucks was black; anotheranother, Patrick Carr, was Irish born. Three of the five were young apprentices to local craftmen.
The patriouts played up the incident for all they could. Lt. Gov. Hutchinson, gtheir perennial villain, was forced to remove the troops to Castle Island in the harbor. Samuel Adams“observed his Knees to tremble” as he made the announcemtnt. “I thought I saw hjis face grow pale (and I enjoyed the sight),” wrote Adams.[8]
Paul Revere made a famous engraving of the “Bloody Massacre”, which he copied after Henry Pelham. Rever’s view was factually inaccurate, butr it was great propaganda. Copies of it were sold throughout the town and carried all over the colonies as well as back to England.
But Boston was not yet ready for war. With the troops removed, things queteed considerably. Two ardent patriots, John Adams and Josiah Quincy, defended the Massacre soldiers in couirt and won acquittal for all but two of them. The two guilty men were branded on their thumbs and set free.[9]
By March 5, 1776, the Continental Army had artillery troops in position around Boston, including the elevated position at Dorchester Heights, overlooking the city. British General William Howe realized Boston was indefensible to the American positions and decided, on March 7, 1776, to leave the city. Ten days later, on March 17, 1776, the eight-year British occupation of Boston ended when British troops evacuated the city and sailed to the safety of Halifax, Nova Scotia.
The victory at Boston resulted in John Thomas' promotion to major general; soon after, he was assigned to replace General Richard Montgomery, who was killed in action as he and Benedict Arnold attempted to take Quebec. Thomas arrived at Quebec on May 1 and soon lost his own life. Although a physician by profession, he died of smallpox on June 2, as the Patriots retreated up the Richelieu River from their failed siege of the city.[11]
On March 5, 1776, the Duke of Richmond moved in the House of Lords that a humble address be presented to his Majesty, praying that he would be graciously pleased to countermand the march of the foreign troops, and to give directions for an immediate suspension of hostilities in America ("Parliamentary Register," 1st series, vol. v. pp. 174-216.) The protest expressed the sense which the House entertained of the danger and disgrace of the treaties, which acknowledged to all Europe that Great Britain was unable, either from want of men, or disinclination to this service, to furnish a competent number of natural-born subjects to make the first campaign. It was a melancholy consideration that the drawing off the national troops (though feeble for the unhappy purpose on which they were employed) would yet leave Great Britain naked and exposed to the assaults and invasion of powerful neighboring and foreign nations.
The document then pointed out that a reconciliation with the colonies would be preferable to the employment of foreigners, who, when they were at so great a distance from their own country, and suffering under the distresses of a war wherein they had no concern, with so many temptations to exchange vassalage for freedom, would be more likely to mutiny or desert than to unite faithfully and co-operate with his Majesty's natural-born subjects.
After showing the danger of foreign troops being brought into the realm, and complaining that they had already been introduced into two of the strongest fortresses (Hanoverian troops had been sent to Gibraltar and Port Mahon),the protest continues: "We have, moreover, just reason to apprehend that when the colonies come to understand that Great Britain is forming alliances, and hiring foreign troops for their destruction, they may think they are well justified by the example, in endeavoring to avail themselves of the like assistance; and that France, Spain, Prussia, or other powers of Europe may conceive that they have as good a right as Hesse, Brunswick, and Hanau to interfere in our domestic quarrels."
The danger of being obliged to defend the Landgrave of Hesse in his quarrels in Europe was then pointed out, and the opinion was expressed "that Great Britain never before entered into a treaty so expensive, so unequal, so dishonorable, and so dangerous in its consequences."
In introducing the protest, the Duke of Richmond gave a short history of the several treaties entered into, since 1702, with the Landgraves of Hesse, and showed that the successive landgraves, from time to time, rose in their demands; and still, as they continued to extort better terms, never failed to establish their former extortion as a precedent for the basis of the new succeeding treaty, always taking care to make some new demand on Great Britain. This treaty was "a downright, mercenary bargain, for the taking into pay of a certain number of hirelings, who were bought and sold like so many beasts for slaughter. . . . But taking it on the other ground, that the treaties were formed on the basis of an alliance, what would be the consequence? That if any of these powers were attacked, or should wantonly provoke an attack, for the engagement was left general and unconditional, we should give them all the succor in our power. Thus, for the assistance of a few thousand foreign mercenaries, we are not only to pay double, but we are to enter into a solemn engagement to exert our whole force to give them all the succor in our power, if the Landgrave or the Duke shall be attacked or disturbed in the possession of his dominions."
The Duke of Richmond further remarked on the danger of keeping a body of twelve thousand foreigners together under the command of one of their own generals, on the possibility of such a general arriving at the supreme command, and on the confusion which might be created by a difference on this head between the foreign general and the commander- in-chief.
The Earl of Suffolk answered in behalf of the administration. "The tenor of the treaties themselves," he said, " is no other than has been usual on former occasions. The present, it is true, is filled with pompous, high-sounding phrases of alliance, but I will be so ingenuous as to confess to the noble duke that I consider them merely in that light; and if he will, I allow that the true object of those treaties is not so much to create an alliance as to hire a body of troops, which the present rebellion in America has rendered necessary."
Having thus made light of the terms of a treaty for which he was personally responsible, Lord Suffolk proceeded to point out that the conditions of that treaty were advantageous if the employment of the troops should only last one year, but that in any case, if they wanted the soldiers, they were obliged to acquiesce in the terms demanded. He expressed his belief that the commander- in-chief superseded all other generals, and on being pressed he asserted positively that such was the case.
The Earl of Carlisle was persuaded that the number of hands required to carry on manufactures, the little use of new levies, at least for the first campaign, and the desire that every friend of his country ought to have for putting a speedy termination to the unhappy troubles, united, created an evident necessity for the employment of foreigners in preference to native troops. He called on their lordships to consider the unwieldy bulk of the empire, and the operations necessary even in case of a defensive war, and asked if it were possible for such an inconsiderable spot as the island of Great Britain, in the nature of things, to furnish numbers sufficient to carry on operations the nature of such a service would necessarily demand.
The debate was continued at great length and with considerable violence. On the Whig side the Duke of Cumberland lamented "to see Brunswickers who once, to their great honor, were employed in the defence of the liberties of the subject, now sent to subjugate his constitutional liberties in another part of this vast empire." The Duke of Manchester pointed out that "that man must be deemed a mercenary soldier who fights for pay in the cause in which he has no concern." The Earl of Effingham suggested that by a decree of the Imperial Chamber the directors of the circle might be ordered to march into the Landgrave's country to compel him to some act of justice or retribution; in which case England would be obliged to excuse her breach of the treaty by her ministers' ignorance of the imperial constitutions, or else to enter into a war, like that in America, not to maintain, but to subvert, the liberties of the Germanic body. The Earl of Shelburne denied the necessity of employing foreigners, and was supported in this by Lord Camden, who also appealed to their lordships, if the whole transaction were not a compound of the most solemn mockery, fallacy, and gross imposition that was ever attempted to be put upon a House of Parliament. "Is there one of your lordships," he asked, "that does not perceive most clearly that the whole is a mere mercenary bargain for the hire of troops on one side, and for the sale of human blood on the other; and that the devoted wretches thus purchased for slaughter are mere mercenaries in the worst sense of the word ?"
The Tory lords would seem to have done less than their share of the talking, perhaps because it was unnecessary for them to speak, sure as they were of a majority. The motion was lost by thirty-two votes to one hundred.
It seems to me that their lordships were a little hard upon the German soldiers. Most of these poor fellows did not fight for pay at all, but fought because they could not help it. The people who were really "mercenaries in the worst sense of the word" were the Landgrave, the Duke, and the princes; but perhaps the noble lords could hardly be expected to say so.
As to the conduct of the British ministry in hiring the troops, it would seem that if the war were to be carried on energetically, no other course was possible. Owing to the distrust of regular soldiers that still lingered in English minds, the British army had not been maintained during peace of a strength equal to the demands now made upon it. Enlistments were made with difficulty, and could at best bring in but raw recruits. Conscription seems always to be out of the question in England. If men must be had, Lord North must seek them in Germany.
But the ministry and the empire paid a terrible price for the German auxiliaries. The answer to the treaty with the Landgrave was the Declaration of Independence. The employment of foreign mercenaries by the British government was largely instrumental in persuading the Americans to throw off their allegiance to the English crown, and to seek the alliance of their former enemies. The danger pointed out in the protest of the lords became a reality, and men of English blood held that France had as good a right as Hesse to interfere in their domestic quarrels (See Leckey's " History of England in the Eighteenth Century," vol. iii. pp. 453 et seq. See also a clause in the Declaration of Independence (given in Appendix C).[12]

(Pleasant Valley) Ira Miller and Willis Goodlove were a tie for sub-director. Don’t lock horns too tight, boys, there’s no money in it. (Winton Goodlove’s note: Ira Miller lived at the junction of what is now Indian Bridge Road and Highway 13 on the northeast corner. Ramsey’s lived there when I was little and their children went to school at Pleasant Valley also. He was a relative of the Ramseys. Melvin Boyce’s lived there later and their son Robert went to Pleasant Valley. Gilbert worked by the month for Melvin at one time. Ira Miller was the father of Irene Miller, who married Eli Thompson. Their children Louise and June also attended Pleasant Valley School. Harlan Starry’s lived there later and Robert Zingula was the last family to live in the building. Highway 13 took the building site when the four lane highway went through.)[26]
| March 5, 1933: President-elect Roosevelt i9s unhurt when Chicago mayor Anton Cermak is killed by a bullet fired by Giuseppe Zangara, while both are riding in a motorcade in Miami, Florida.[28] On this day in 1933, a deranged, unemployed brick layer named Giuseppe Zangara shouts Too many people are starving! and fires a gun at America's president-elect, Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Roosevelt had just delivered a speech in Miami's Bayfront Park from the back seat of his open touring car when Zangara opened fire with six rounds. Five people were hit. The president escaped injury but the mayor of Chicago, Anton Cermak, who was also in attendance, received a mortal stomach wound in the attack.
Several men tackled the assailant and might have beaten him to death if Roosevelt had not intervened, telling the crowd to leave justice to the authorities. Zangara later claimed I don't hate Mr. Roosevelt personallyI hate all officials and anyone who is rich. He also told the FBI that chronic stomach pain led to his action: Since my stomach hurt I want to make even with the capitalists by kill the president. My stomach hurt long time [sic].
Zangara's extreme action reflected the anger and frustration felt among many working Americans during the Great Depression. At the time of the shooting, Roosevelt was still only the president-elect and had yet to be sworn in. His policies remained untested, but reports of Roosevelt's composure during the assassination attempt filled the following day's newspapers and did much to enforce Roosevelt's public image as a strong leader.
Unsubstantiated reports later claimed that Zangara's real target had been Cermak and hinted at Zangara's connection to organized crime in Chicago. Zangara was initially tried for attempted murder and sentenced to 80 years in prison, but when Mayor Cermak later died of his wounds, Zangara was retried and sentenced to death. Zangara died on the electric chair on March 5, 1933.[29]

[10] Although scheduled for 4 Mar., the officers’ meeting was actually held today. Besides GW and Dr. James Craik, only four officers or their representatives were present. After hearing GW’s report and learning that William Crawford had begun to survey along the Great Kanawha River, they unanimously ag reed that he should be instructed to finish his work there and then proceed as soon as possible to survey lands on the Tygart Valley River, a branch of the Monongahela. To cover Crawford’s expenses, GW was authorized to advance him £80, collecting money for that purpose not only from officers but now for the first time from former rank-and-file members of the regiment also. Each field officer was assessed LII 5s., each captain£6 15s., each subaltern £4 lOs., and each common soldier a fourth of a subaltern’s share (minutes of the officers of the Virginia Regiment, 5 Mar. 1771, DLC:GW).
[13] The plan of the British had been to attack Fort Pitt but this was given up on account of the report that it was in a good state of defense but that the Falls could easily be reduced. After Colonel Crawford’s defeat, Wheeling became the objective for McKee and Caldwell with their rangers and Indians. Reports of Clark’s expedition caused them to return to Sandusky. The march into Kentucky and the Battle of the Blue Licks followed. See introduction, ante~ xxxix-li. Washington-Irvine Correspondence, Butterfield, 1882.
[17]ROBERT2 HARRISON, born in Fayette County, Pennsylvania, presumably about 1769, since he was a landholder 1790/1793; died in Harrison County, Kentucky, 1821. An affidavit signed by his uncles, Hugh and Robert Newall, as well as by Captain Thomas Moore, they deposed that this Robert Harrison was a son of Captain Benjamin Harrison. (Va.
