Joan
1272
April 23, 1307
Married (1) in 1290 Gilbert de Clare, Earl of Hertford, who died in 1295, and (2) in 1297 Ralph de Monthermer. She had four children by Clare, and three or four by Monthermer.
April 23, 1307: Joan of Acre was the seventh of Edward I and Eleanor’s fourteen children. Most of her older siblings died before the age of seven, and many of her younger siblings died before adulthood.[25][3] Those who survived to adulthood were Joan, her younger brother, Edward of Caernarfon (later Edward II), and four of her sisters: Eleanor, Margaret, Mary, and Elizabeth.[26][4] Joan, like her siblings, was raised outside her parents' household. She lived with her grandmother in Ponthieu for four years, and was then confided to the same caregivers who looked after her siblings.[27][5] Edward I did not have a close relationship with most of his children while they were growing up, yet “he seemed fonder of his daughters than his sons.”[26][6]
However, Joan of Acre’s independent nature caused numerous conflicts with her father. Her father disapproved of her leaving court after her marriage to the Earl of Gloucester, and in turn “seized seven robes that had been made for her.”[28][7] He also strongly disapproved of her second marriage to Ralph de Monthermer, a squire in her household, even to the point of attempting to force her to marry someone else.[28][8][29][9] While Edward ultimately developed a cordial relationship with Monthermer, even giving him the title of Earl,[28[10]] there appears to have been a notable difference in the Edward’s treatment of Joan as compared to the treatment of the rest of her siblings. For instance, her father famously paid messengers substantially when they brought news of the birth of grandchildren, but did not do this upon birth of Joan’s daughter.[30][11]
In terms of her siblings, Joan kept a fairly tight bond. She and Monthermer both maintained a close relationship with her brother, Edward II, which was maintained through letters. After Edward II became estranged from his parents and lost his royal seal, “Joan offered to lend him her seal” .[31][12]
Death
Joan of Acre died on April 23, 1307, at the manor of Clare in Suffolk.[24][13] The cause of her death remains unclear, though one popular theory is that she died during childbirth, a common cause of death at the time. While Joan's age in 1307 (about 35) and the chronology of her earlier pregnancies with Ralph de Monthermer suggest that this could well be the case, historians have not confirmed the cause of her death.[32]
Joan is most notable for the claim that miracles have allegedly taken place at her grave, and for the multiple references of her in literature.[14]
Died
Joan of Acre, April 23, 1307(1307-04-23) (aged 35) at
Clare Castle, Clare[15]
Buried April 23, 1307
Clare Priory, Suffolk[16]
[17]
April 23, 1272: Joan of Acre- Cnts. Gloucester.Princess Joan of Acre[18]- Cnts. Gloucester, born April, 1272 in Acre, Palestine. [19] The name "Acre" derives from her birthplace in the Holy Land while her parents were on a crusade.[20] Joan died April 23, 1307 in Austin Friar's, Clare, Suffolk, England. She was the daughter of 2. King of England Edward I (Longshanks) and 3. Eleanor of Cstille, "Cts de Ponthieu". She married (1) Earl/Gloucester3 Gilbert "The Red" 7th Earl de Clare "6th Earl" April 30, 1290 in Westminster Abby, London, England. He was born September 02, 1243 in Christchurch, Hampshire, England/Christchurch, England, and died December 07, 1295 in Monmouth Castle. He was the son of Earl/Gloucester Richard de Clare and Maud de (LACY) LACIE. She married (2) Baron Ralph de MONTHERMER (Earl Gloucester) January 1296/97. He was born in of Tonebrugge, Castle, Kent, England, and died in (35 yrs old).[21]
Birth and childhood:Joan (or Joanna, as she is sometimes called) of Acre was born in the spring of 1272 in Syria, while her parents, Edward I and Eleanor of Castile, were on crusade.[3][22] At the time of Joan's birth, her grandfather, Henry III, was still alive and thus her father was not yet king of England. Her parents departed from Acre shortly after her birth, traveling to Sicily and Spain[4][23] before leaving Joan with Eleanor's mother, Joan, Countess of Ponthieu, in France.[5][24] Joan lived for several years in France where she spent her time being educated by a bishop and “being thoroughly spoiled by an indulgent grandmother.”[6][25] Joan was free to play among the “vine clad hills and sunny vales”[7] [26]surrounding her grandmother’s home, although she required “judicious surveillance.”[8][27][28]
Joan of Acre is the 21st great grandmother of Jeffery Lee Goodlove
April 23, 1701
Ebenezer Zane did not endear himself to the Quaker elders when he attended, with Penn, the Kensington Treaty or Great Elm Treaty, as some called it, on April 23, 1701, to purchase a tract o the great forested lands stretching north and west from the site o Philadelphia, a treaty that years later, because o an ambiguity, greatly defrauded the Delawares.[29]
The name "Cutlip" appears in England as early as the seventeenth century; however, the preponderance of evidence — circumstantial in some cases — strongly suggests a German origin for most, if not all, branches of the Cutlip family. The German name Gottlieb can be used as either a given or family name, much like "Bruce" or "Lester" or "Clark" can be either first, middle, or last names in English-speaking countries. Gott is German for God. Lieb is German for love. Gottlieb, then, means "love of God." Another West Virginia family with German roots is named Crislip today; but was Christlieb back then.[30]
Immigrants came to the Shenandoah Valley from northern colonies where land was prohibitedly expensive. Settlers here included German Lutherans fleeing the wars of the 1700’s. [31]
Tuesday April 23, 1754:
The officers of the Virginia Regiment decide to press on and build their road to Redstone Creek (on the Monongahela) even though the French now control the Forks of the Ohio.
Washington decides to make a fort at Redstone
Following Ward‘s ejection from the present-day location of Pittsburgh, a council of war was held
at Wills Creek on April 23, 1754. Fry had not yet arrived. Washington‘s journal records the
council of war as follows:
It was thought a thing impracticable to march towards the Fort without sufficient
strength; however, being strongly invited by the Indians, and particularly by the speeches
of the Half-King, the president put the question to vote whether we should not advance,
as far as Red-Stone Creek on Monongahela about thirty-seven miles on this side of the
fort, and there to erect a fortification, clearing a road broad enough to pass with all our
artillery and our baggage, and there to wait for fresh Orders.
The proposition aforesaid was adopted for the following reasons;
1st. That the mouth of Red-Stone is the first convenient place on the River Monongahela.
2nd. The stores are already built at that place for the provisions of the Company, wherein
our Ammunition may be laid up, our great guns may be also sent by water whenever we
shall think it convenient to attack the Fort.[32]
George Washington to Edward Hubbard, April 23, 1756
April 23, 1756
Sir: it has been determined here in a Council of War, that it would be most advisable for you to evacuate your Fort at Enock’s: destroy it, and join Captain Harrison at Edwards’s, with your Party, stores, and the inhabitants. As we are not acquainted with their situation at Cox’s, it was thought best that you send the sergeant there, a conditional Order to join you at Enocks’s, or keep possession where he is (which ever he and the Inhabitants, from the situation of affairs, think most advisable;) until we can send them some assistance, which will, I hope, be very soon; as I expect to be joined by a number of men shortly.
You are to send him this Order immediately. If he retreats to your party, you must order him to destroy the Fort, ere he quits the place.
I would recommend it to the Inhabitants, to drive down their Cattle, &c. with them. Yours, etc.[33]
April 23, 1784: Jefferson submits to Congress his Report of a Plan of Government for the Western Territory, establishing procedures for the entrance of new states. In it, Jefferson proposes that slavery be abolished in new states by 1800. Congress rejects this part of the plan and passes the revised Ordinance April 23. Jefferson blames Southern representatives for Congress's rejection of his original plan. The Ordinance of 1784 marks the high point of Jefferson's opposition to slavery, which is more muted thereafter[34]
April 23, 1821: MARANDA CRAWFORD, b. April 23, 1821, Estell County, Kentucky; d. Abt. 1850; m. EDWARD SPICER, October 03, 1841, Perry County, Kentucky. [35]
Maranda Crawford is the 3rd cousin 5x removed of Jeffery Lee Goodlove.
April 23, 1841: George Frederick LeClere immigrated with his parents to America in 1828 and settled in Mexico Oswego Co. New York. They settled in heavy timber, some which they cut, piled up and burnt using the ashes as fertilizer, as the soil was thin and rocky, then used the cleared off land to raise crops on.
On April 23 1841 he was married to Miss Louise Katherine Laude, a native of France (Semondaus Doubs France)
They began farming in Oswego Co. New York, where they lived until 1840 when they came to Iowa and settled on a Mineral reserve, an 80 acre farm 8 miles south of Dubuque.
They traveled from New York by the way of the canal and over the Great Lakes to Chicago, which was then swamp. Their emigrant wagons and oxen were put on shore. There were 18 in the party, which helped each other get through the swamp, with wooden poles prying their heavy wagons up as oxen pulled.
By good management and thrift he continued to add to his land until he became the owner of over 1800 acres of land. He accumulated a considerable fortune a goodly portion of which he presented to his children several years before his death.
They moved to Monticello Iowa in 1878. His wife died June 1st, 1897 and was buried in the French Cemetery near Dubuque Iowa. After her death he made his home with his children. He died October 24th 1904 and was buried in the French Cemetery near Dubuque Iowa.
To this union eight children were born. Names are in the following history.
For example to trace use Charles F. LeClere No.I, find Charles F. LeClere with (I) under that you will find all of his children. Take his oldest child No. ( or any other, turn to (9) and find all of Henry C. LeClere’s children etc.
You will find some of the history not filled, but I have tried to find all of the information I could. From year to year you will have to add on yourself.

April 23, 1856: Bleeding Kansas and the Civil War
Shortly after Lawrence’s founding, two newspapers were started: The Kansas Pioneer and the Herald of Freedom. Both papers touted the Free State mission which caused problems from the people of Lecompton, then the pro-slavery headquarters, located about ten miles northwest of Lawrence, and land squatters from Missouri. The Kansas Free State began in early January 1855.[15]
On November 21, 1855, Charles Dow was shot and killed by Franklin Coleman in Hickory Point about fourteen miles south of Lawrence. Shortly after, a small army of Missourians led by Douglas County Sheriff Samuel L. Jones entered Kansas to attack Lawrence. John Brown and James Lane had hustled Lawrence citizens into an army and erected barricades but no attack happened. A treaty was signed and the Missouri army reluctantly left.[16]

Ruins of Free State Hotel after the attack in 1856.
Harassment by Sheriff Jones and other Southern sympathizers continued unabated. The Herald of Freedom, the Kansas Free State and the Free State Hotel were indicted as being “nuisances.”[15] On April 23, 1856 Sheriff Jones was shot while trying to arrest free-state settlers.[17] On May 21, Sheriff Jones and a posse of 800 Southern sympathizers converged on Lawrence. Dr. Robinson’s house on Mount Oread was taken by the federal marshal as headquarters and the newspaper printing presses were damaged and thrown in the river. The Free State Hotel was also destroyed.[18]
Despite the constant presence of impending war, Lawrence continued to grow. Its 1860 population was estimated at 2,500 although the official Census recorded 1,645.[19] Lawrence became the county seat of Douglas County in 1857, prior to that Lecompton had been the seat and even when the American Civil War broke out in April 1861, Lawrence was still a magnet to conflict. William Clarke Quantrill and 300-400 Confederate guerillas rode into Lawrence and attacked the city at dawn on August 21,
1863. Most houses and businesses in Lawrence were burned and between 150-200 men and boys were killed.[20][21][36]
April 23, 1856: Lawrence was established in 1854 by anti-slavery settlers, many with the help of the New England Emigrant Aid Company, and soon became the center of pro-slavery violence in Kansas Territory. While the village had been besieged in December 1855, it was not directly attacked at that time. The non-fatal shooting of Douglas County Sheriff Samuel Jones on April 23, 1856, while he was attempting to arrest free-state settlers in Lawrence, is believed to have been the immediate cause of the violence.[1] Lawrence residents drove Jones out of town after he was shot and on May 11, Federal Marshal J. B. Donaldson proclaimed that this action had interfered with the execution of warrants against the extralegal Free-State legislature, which had been set up in opposition to the official pro-slavery territorial government.[1] Building on this proclamation and a finding by a grand jury that Lawrence's Free State Hotel was actually built as a fort, Sheriff Jones collected a posse of 800 southerners to enter Lawrence, disarm the citizens, wreck the town's anti-slavery presses, and destroy the Free State Hotel.[2][3]

"Old Sacramento Cannon" captured by U.S. during the Mexican-American War in 1847 and taken to the Liberty Arsenal. The cannon was seized by pro-slavery forces in 1856 and fired during the Sacking of Lawrence. The cannon was damaged in 1896 when it was loaded with clay and straw and fired.

Life and Times of Carter Harrison
By Milancie Hill Adams
Carter Harrison HomeCarter Harrison IV was born April 23, 1860. He was the third child of Carter Harrison III and Sophonisba Grayson Preston.
His childhood home was 231 Ashland Boulevard Chicago, Illinois. His father was a lucrative land owner and real estate agent who served as Mayor for four terms. His father was assassinated at the beginning of his fifth term during the Chicago World's Fair.
From Carter Harrison's autobiography, The Stormy Years, we are given the two following glimpses into Carter's childhood. First, Carter states that he attended a school located on the westside of Sheldon Street between Randolph and Lake Streets from 1868 to 1873, run by a Mr. John A Bell, a Scottish minister. He states "It was a strange kind of school in which the master, Scotch trained, never had a rattan father than twelve inches from his right hand. A great believer in corporal punishment, no morning was complete unless the rattan was wrapped around at least one youngster's legs. We probably needed all we got and more. ... If any of the thirty-odd boys, other than Dr. Antonio Lagorio of Pastuer Institute fame, his cousin, the two Owsleys, Harry and Heaton, and myself, came to good end, he failed to advertise it. Among the boys, about the best behaved, the most studious were the two Lagorios." Secondly, another place in his book he speaks of dinner his father and John hosted given in the parlor of Carter's home which the boys were not even allowed to festivities of although they could hear the lusty singing of Good Old Yale, Drink Her Down!, Excelsior and other classics. "It was a small but joyous gathering of the Chicago Yale Club given to song, horseplay and wassail; there was a huge punchbowl into which my father had poured pitcher after pitcher of Bourbon whisky drawn from the barrell in his cellar."
In 1873 when his Mother was pregnant with her tenth child the family physician advised they should go aboard to Europe. They returned home in 1876. Carter described himself as a very bashful youth, whose German was better than his English and who "would walk blocks in a roundabout course to avoid meeting a bevy of girls".
Against his father's earnest counsel He attended St. Ignatisus and completed a degree in Philosophy. He married December 14, 1887 Edith Ogden daughter of Rober N. Ogden.
Carter followed his father's footsteps and pursued both politics and real estate.
As his father was an avid horseman he was a bicyclest and was a member of the Century Road Club which had awarded him 18 Carter Harrison Campaign Posterpendant bars each engraved with the date of a particular run. Carter Harrison Jr. used the bicycle as his campaign gimmick to help him win election in 1897. 'Not the Champion Cyclist, but the Cyclist's champion. "Shortly after the nominations I had the Owsley brothers send a brand new wheel with the scorcher handlebars of the schorchiest type to the Morrison photograph gallery. I then betook myselfto the gallery with my riding togs to be phographed head on, body bent double over the scorcher bars, an attitude that always gave a fiendish expression even to the mildest of faces. What with the rakish cap, the old grey sweater and the string of eighteen pwndant bars, I looked a professional a picture which I knew would carry weight with the vast army of Chicago wheelmen."
Carter served five terms as mayor of Chicago. Through out his adulthood as in his childhood his closest friends were the twins Heaton and Harry Owsley.

Robert “Ripper” Lee Crawford is the 3rd cousin 5x removed of Jeffery Lee Goodlove.
April 23, 1896: Oscar Goodlove was doing business in Anamosa Monday of this week.[46]
Oscar Goodlove is the great granduncle of Jeffery Lee Goodlove.
By April 23, 1906, most fires were extinguished, and authorities commenced the task of rebuilding the devastated metropolis. It was estimated that some 3,000 people died as a result of the Great San Francisco Earthquake and the devastating fires it inflicted upon the city. Almost 30,000 buildings were destroyed, including most of the city's homes and nearly all the central business district.[47]
April 23, 1923: Ex Senator LeRoy Percy of Greenville, Mississipps, in a remarkable address delivered April 23, 1923, to his fellow townsmen, an address that should be read by all Americans where the Klan is an issue, says: “ This thing has come into our midst, parting friends, sowing discord, dissension, and hatred where there was gentleness and love and friendship; disrupting churches, threatening civic societies, destroying the spirit of cooperation, and making man look with suspicion on man and wonder whether his neighbor is his friend or his secret enemy. You walk the street and feel that you are standing among hostile people. Standing less than twelve months from the time when we gathered on this platform together, and looking back through a mist of hate that has arisen from this Klan business, like miasma from a morass, it is hard to visualize the town as it was a year ago, it is hard to call it back.”[48]
April 23, 1938 Jews in Vienna, Austria, were rounded up on the Sabbath by Nazis and forced to eat grass at the Prater, a local amusement park. Many of the victimized Jews suffered heart attacks and a few died.[49]
April 23, 1939: The police arrested 218 more illegal immigrants near Jaffa early this morning. The group that included fifty women and ten children had been put ashore by a Greek ship near Ashkelon. The British forces found them wandering in the dunes. They were taken to holding camps in Jaffa. Along the way, the convoy passed several Jewish settlements where the residents cheered these latest escapees from Hitler’s Europe.[50]
April 23, 1940: The Nazis ordered the Jews to jump in cesspool at the Stutthof Labor Camp. The short ones drown.[51]

NARRATIVE
1. At 1232 (VW) April 8, 1942 this vessel stood out of Pearl Harbor in company with Task Force Sixteen, consisting of ENTERPRISE (Flagship), NORTHAMPTON, SALT LAKE CITY, BALCH, BENHAM, FANNING, ELLET and SABINE, under command of Vice-Admiral W. F. Halsey, jr., U.S.N., Commander Carriers, Pacific Fleet, for operations not disclosed at this time. After landing the Air Group aboard south of Oahu, a westerly, and then a northwesterly, course was set that took the Task Force 30 miles southwest of Nihoa Island. This course (310°T.) was continued with slight modifications until 0600 (Y) April 13, when a rendezvous was effected with Task Force Eighteen in Latitude 38° - 00' North, Longitude 180° 00'.
2. Task Force Eighteen consisting of HORNET, VINCENNES, NASHVILLE, GWIN, GRAYSON, MEREDITH, MONSSEN and CIMARRON became part of Task Force Sixteen. At this time information was disseminated to the Task Force that it would proceed to a point approximately 500 miles east of Tokyo where 16 Army bombers (B-25) carried on the flight deck of HORNET, would be launched for an attack on the Tokyo area. Course 265°T. and speed 16 knots were then set. Except when bad weather prevented, continuous inner and intermediate air patrols were maintained during daylight and dawn and dusk search flights were conducted daily to 200 miles, 60° on each bow.
3. Fueling of the heavy vessels was undertaken April 17 when about 1000 miles east of Tokyo and was barely completed when the wind increased to gale force (wind south, 35 knots; sea rough, visibility 1 - 2 miles). At 1439 (L) the 2 CV, 3 CA and 1 CL proceeded independent of accompanying DD's and AO#s on a westerly course, averaging approximately 20 knots.
4. On april 18, the day it was planned to reach the 500 mile circle from Tokyo at about 1600, ENTERPRISE launched the usual dawn search flight and combat patrol. These were maintained continuously throughout the day. The contacts and action, indicated on the track chart by capital letters, were reported by pilots of these flights. Times indicated in connection with contacts and action, April 18, are Zone minus 10.
5. At 0310 radar disclosed two enemy surface craft bearing 255°T., distance 21,000 yards, and at 0312 a light was seen approximately on that bearing. Ship went to General Quarters, set Material Condition Afirm and energized the degaussing gear. Course of the Force was changed to 350°T., and at 0341 the two enemy vessels went off the screen bearing 201°T., distance 27,000 yards. Our presence was apparently unnoticed by the enemy and a westerly course was resumed at 0415.
6. At 0508 fighter patrol and search flight were launched. At 0715 one search plane returned and, by message drop, reported sighting an enemy patrol vessel in Latitude 36° 04' North and Longitude 153° 10' East at 0558 and that he believed he had been seen. Later developments indicate that this vessel made the original contact report.
7. At 0744 an enemy patrol vessel was sighted bearing 221°T., distance approximately 10,000 yards. There was no doubt now that our force had been detected and almost certainly had been reported. NASHVILLE was ordered to sunk the patrol vessel by gunfire as the carriers turned into the wind (320°T., 26 knots); HORNET to launch Army B-25's for attack and ENTERPRISE to relieve patrol.s The first Army bomber was launched at 0820 approximately 650 miles from Tokyo, and the last one was off at 0921. At 0927 the Force commenced retirement on course 090°T., speed 25 knots.
8. At 1214 radar reported enemy patrol plane bearing 020°T., distance 70,000 yards. This plane came within 64,000 yards of our force but passed off the screen at 1228 bearing 314°T., distance 83,000 yards.
9. At 1400 two enemy patrol vessels were sighted and attacked by ENTERPRISE planes returning from search. One was sunk and the other damaged. By 1413 the enemy ship still afloat was in sight of our surface forces and NASHVILLE was ordered to attack and sink her. A white flag was broken in the enemy ship and after taking 5 prisoners, NASHVILLE sank her by gunfire. Apparently these two vessels were the same ones reported by radar at 0310.
10. At 1503, 6-B-4 was forced to land in the water, near the Disposition, due to engine failure. This plane is believed to have sustained damage to its engine from the anti-aircraft machine gun fire of an enemy patrol vessel attacked. NASHVILLE rescued personnel, uninjured.
11. No further contacts were made. All aircraft were recovered at 1739 and the retirement continued.
12. Bombs and ammunition were expended as indicated in the table below.

COMMENT:
1. The track chart, Enclosure (A), is drawn to the scale of H.O. chart No. 528, in order to best present an illuminating picture of the whole strategic area, including the objective. An enlargement of the action area is presented as an insert.
2. The numerous enemy contacts may give the impression that the Task Force unfortunately encountered an isolated patrol. No such assumption should be made. On the contrary, the variety and the number of patrol craft seen is a strong indication that a heavy patrol in depth is general, at least to the east of Honshu and the Kurils. This patrol probably utilizes hundreds of small craft of various types and extends 700 - 800 miles offshore. All enemy surface patrol craft are undoubtedly equipped with effective radio and apparently all are armed with machine guns. Some are camouflaged with two-tone mottled coloring. Evidence supports the belief that they are not equipped with radar.
3. Of interest is the weather broadcasting vessel fixed by shore RDF on April 15 in Latitude 44° 00' North, Longitude 162° 00' East - 500 miles from the Kurils,750 miles from the Aleutians and 1200 miles from Tokyo.
4. The Japanese surface patrol is particularly suited to their eastern sea frontier and is unquestionably effective. Were it equipped with radar, it would be made almost impenetrable with fewer units. In certain areas, a radar equipped small boat patrol would seem to have some advantage over long distance air patrols as we maintain them; primarily in that it is on station at the critical distance, night and day. Such a patrol might detect an attempted afternoon and night run in by a raiding force when an air patrol would not pick it up. Favorable areas in which we might use such a patrol are: Costa Rica - Galapagos - Ecuador, off southern California, off Cape Mendocino and off Vancouver Island. A combination of surface craft and aircraft patrol should reduce the number of aircraft now maintained in specific areas and thus make possible a wider distribution of the aircraft now available.
5. Although specific information is lacking, it is believed that the Japanese patrol craft are not armed with anything larger than machine guns. Therefore, if future bombing raids on Honshu, similar to this one, are planned it might be advantageous to send one or more of our submarines in advance of the raiding force to "soften", by destruction and dispersal, the enemy patrol in the 600 - 800 mile belt across its line of advance. At this distance it seems unlikely that the enemy would take strong anti-submarine measures.
6. A further suggestion is that two submarines, equipped with radio apparatus similar to that installed in aircraft and in carriers, might be disposed in a selected area and by conducting lost plane procedure effectively draw enemy forces away from the area from which an aircraft raiding attack might be launched. As a means of harassing the enemy, even though no actual aircraft raiding attack were planned by our forces, this employment of submarines seems to offer many possibilities.
7. All personnel, both ship and air group performed their duties in a highly creditable manner. No outstandingly meritorious, and on censurable conduct on the part of any individual was observed.
8. The efficiency of the ship and all munitions of war are satisfactory except for the performance of the F4F4's and the limited range of the TBS's, reported in separate correspondence.

On board the Enterprise for the Doolittle Raid was Uncle Howard Snell.
On April 23, 1943: Mordecai Anielewicz the ZOB commander wrote the following to Yitzhak Zuckerman, a member of the ZOB command who was stationed on the "Aryan" side: "I cannot describe the conditions in which the Jews are living. Only a special few will hold out; all the others will perish sooner or later. Their fate is sealed. None of the bunkers where our comrades are hiding has enough air to light a candle at night.... Be well, my dear, perhaps we shall yet meet. The dream of my life has risen to become fact. Self - defense in the ghetto will have been a reality. I have been a witness to the magnificent, heroic fighting of Jewish men of battle". The rebels pursued their cause, even though they knew from the outset that they could not win. The Jewish underground would continue to fight the Nazis until the middle of May. The Polish underground only gave minimal help because of anti-Semitism prevalent among many. Although the Allies will neither publicize events nor try to help, even before the war ended, the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising became a symbol of Jewish resistance.[53]
April 23, 1943: Much to everybody's surprise, the Warsaw Uprising continues even though supplies and weapons are at the bare minimum. By now the Poles know what is going on. They watch, but they offer no aid. The Polish underground will suffer a similar fate in 1945. Then they will rise up against the Nazis, but the Soviet troops wait outside the city giving the Germans to wipe the predominately non-Communist part of the resistance movement. As somebody once said, as you treat your Jews, so shall you be treated.[54]
April 23, 1948(14th of Nisan, 5708): Erev Pesach the rations given out in Jerusalem for the observance of Passover included 2 lbs. of potatoes, ½ lb of fish, 4 lb. of matzo, 1 ½ oz. dried fruit, ½ lb. meat, and ½ lb. of matzo flour. As one who was there later wrote, “For the trapped citizens of Jerusalem, who had become accustomed to privation, the Passover provisions seemed like a banquet. However, for the citizens of Jerusalem, it was not a particularly merry affair. On the verge of their national freedom, the inhabitants of Jerusalem sat somberly around their tables. This was the first time since the nightly shellings that the city's citizens had come together in assembly in the various homes throughout the city that had been the dream of two thousand years' Seders. Tonight is a holiday, but tomorrow the struggle will go on. As they sat to begin the Seder, they heard the beginning of the snipers bullets looking for a straggler in the streets. But tonight was different. As they opened the door, as they had done for scores of generations, to welcome in Elijah, there was no fear. Tonight is a night of divine protection. As the Holy One protected the Jews in Egypt, so shall he protect us here in the war torn city of Jerusalem. "Once we were slaves, but today we are free men" recited in the Haggadah, took on new meaning. The British are leaving, the Arabs are attacking, and we are beginning our new national lives as free men in our own country. "Next year in Jerusalem" had a meaning that we never before understood. We meant it; we would not relinquish our dream to return to our homeland, to the city that has been in our hearts throughout the two thousand year exile. Now we are free men, tomorrow we must continue the fight to remain free.[55]

[39] History of the Nineteenth Army Corps by Richard B. Irwin, 1892
[40] At 4:30 A.M. on the 23d, the cavalry, followed by Emory’s division, advanced toward the ferry and soon encountered Southern skirmishers. Arnold’s troopers pressed forward and drove them over the river. The Federals could now see clearly that the main enemy position, studded with artillery, was on te series of wooded bluffs overlooking the south bank of the Cane.(O. R., xxxiv, Part I, 439.)
The force confronting Emory consisted of some 1600 cavalry and four batteries, the whole detachment commanded by General Bee. Both Taylor and Wharton had impressed upon Bee the importance of holding Motett’s. With Bee in front of the Union Army, Wharton in its rear, Liddell covering the crossing of the Red at the mouth of Cane River, and Polignac blocking the road from Cloutierville, Taylor believed his forces were capable of giving the enemy serious trouble. (O. R., xxxiv, Part I, 580.) When the Union horsemen came out on to open ground opposite the ferry they were fired upon by Southern guns across the river. Thereupon Emory withdrew all but the dismounted men and threw forward a line of infantry skirmishers. The position was obviously too strong to approach frontally, except as a last resort. Colonel E. J. Davis was told to take his brigade of cavalry and move off to the left to see if the river could be crossed below the enemy position.(O. R., xxxiv, Part I, 262, 460.) Banks gave his chief officer the same assignmentl Meanwhile A. J. Smith was being very hard pressed by Wharton’s cavalry and Franklin received word that the rear guard might not be able to hold its ground.(Com. Con. War, pp. 15, 34-35.)
[41] Monett’s Ferry; Cane River Crossing , Louisiana, April 23, 1864: Near the end of the Red River Expedition, Maj. Gen. Nathaniel P. Banks’s army evacuated Grand Ecore and retreated to Alexandria, pursued by Confederate forces. Banks’s advance party, commanded by Brig. Gen. William H. Emory, encountered Brig. Gen. Hamilton P. Bee’s cavalry division near Monett’s Ferry (Cane River Crossing) on the morning of April 23. Bee had been ordered to dispute Emory’s crossing, and he placed his men so that natural features covered both his flanks. Reluctant to assault the Rebels in their strong position, Emory demonstrated in front of the Confederate lines, while two brigades went in search of another crossing. One brigade found a ford, crossed, and attacked the Rebels in their flank. Bee had to retreat. Banks’s men laid pontoon bridges and, by the next day, had all crossed the river. The Confederates at Monett’s Ferry missed an opportunity to destroy or capture Banks’s army.
