Dear Jeff,

Ahead of next week's meeting of the Quartet (the US, UN, EU and Russia negotiators for Middle East peace) in Washington DC, the Palestinians have issued a new set of demands—not for peace, but to return to negotiations. These demands include a complete halt to all Israeli construction in Judea and Samaria and east Jerusalem, an agreement that the 1949 Armistice lines with mutually-agreed land swaps are the basis for talks, European Union support for Palestinian Authority (PA) reconciliation efforts between Fatah and Hamas, and EU support for a PA declaration of statehood in the UN.

It is outrageous that the Quartet would accede to such demands, but the desire to get a piece of paper signed by both sides—even if one side has never yet kept a single promise made in any past deal—is so high that they may well give in to the Palestinian demands. All the pressure is on Israel with the upcoming UN General Assembly vote on Palestinian statehood now just over two months away. Time is growing short to protect Jerusalem from being divided.

This Day…

• July 12, 1191: The city of Acre falls to the Crusader’s. Richard grows impatient when Saladin is slow to negotiate the terms of surrender. The English King orders Muslim prisoners led out of the city. One by one they are killed, 2700 men in all. [1]



July 12, 1290: In 1290 Edward I expelled all Jews from England.[2] This lasted 350 years. Many resettled to Holland.[3] Edward gets reasonably high marks for setting up the "Model Parliament." American moviegoers know him as "Longshanks" the King who was the villain in the film "Braveheart." The banishment of the Jews from the kingdom was part of slow decline engineered by the English king for a variety of reasons. Before the final edict he found one more way to extract money from his Jewish subjects. In 1287, he arrested several prominent Jewish leaders and demanded the community produce a 12,000-pound ransom for their freedom. The date for the actual order of expulsion is given by some as July 12 and by others as July 18. Regardless, Edward gave the Jews three months to leave. After All-Saints Day, any Jew found in the realm was subject to death. The Jews would not officially return to England until 17th century and the era of Cromwell.[4] Edward I is the compilers 22nd great grandfather.

1290 Jews expelled from Wales, resettled to France and Holland[5]

1290: The Mamuks assembled 60,000 cavalry, 160,000 infantry, a hundred manganel siege engines around the Christian capital of Acre. The Temple compound was the last building to fall and the Grand Master and all the remaining Templars were killed in the fighting. [6]

July 12, 1555: In his Bull Cum Nimis Absurdum, Pope Paul IV renewed all previous anti-Jewish legislation and installed a ghetto in Rome. Jews were forced to wear a given cap and forbidden to own real estate or practice medicine on Christians. Communities weren't allowed to have more than one synagogue and Jews in all the Papal States were forced to lock themselves into the confines of the ghettos each night.[7]



July 12, 1536: Desiderius Erasmus, the Dutch writer and philosopher passed away. According to Elliot Rosenberg, Erasmus’ relations with the Jews presented a mixed bag. Unlike Thomas More, “Erasmus spoke out in defense of the Jews and Judaism. ‘If it is Christian to hate the Jews, all of us are only too Christians.’ On the other hand he also write “Jews are very numerous in Italy; in Spain there are hardly any…I am afraid that when the occasion arises, that pest, formerly suppressed, will raise its head again. Finally, Erasmus only provided lukewarm support when Johann Reuchlin took on “dogmatic Talmud-burners in Central Europe.”[8]





July 12, 1606

The Mackinnons and Macdonalds were of common descent, and had as well, strong ties of friendship. There exists an agreement, dated 12 July, 1606, between Lauchlan Mackinnon, of Strathordell, and Finlay Macnab, of Bowaine, “Being of one surname and lineage, notwithstanding they lived aprt”.



July 12, 1606

Another of these bonds of “man-rent" comes next in historical order. It was entered into between Lachlan MacKinnon of Strathardill and Finlay MacNab of Bowaine, dated at Uir, July 12, 1606, and signed before John McDonnell reached MacKinnon, Ewan MacKinnon and "uthers," thus "Lauchland, mise" (i.e., myself), " MacFingon." It must be conjectured that the MacNab himself could not write, and that his mark has not been noticed in the document. Five MacNabs are named as witnesses. It narrates, that " happening to foregadder togadder with certain of the said Finlay's friends in their rooms, in the Laird of Glenurchay's country, and the said Lachlall and Finqay having come of one house, and being of one surname and lineage; notwithstanding the said Lachlan and Finlay this long time bygone oversaw their awn duties till uders in the respect of the long distance and betwixt their dwelling-places, quhairfore baith the saids now and in all time coming are content to be bound and obleisit, with consent of their kyn and friends, to do all sted, pleasure, assistance, and service that lies in them ilk ane to uthers: the said Finlay acknowledging the said Lachlan as ane kynd chieff, and of ane house: and like the said Lachlan to acknowledge the said Finqay MacNab, his friend, as his special kynsman and friend.”[9]

July 12, 1773: Captain the Hon. William Leslie of the Seventeenth regiment

was a son of the Scotch Earl of Levin, and a nephew of General

Alexander Leslie, who had been posted at Maidenhead. He was

a gallant officer, twenty-six years of age and greatly beloved by

his men. He entered the English army as an ensign of the

Forty-second regiment May 3, 1770, was made a lieutenant of

the Seventeenth regiment July 12, 1773, and captain, February

26, 1776. He was mortally wounded in the fight, and, when dis-

covered by General Washington as the latter passed over the

field after the battle, was properly cared for by Dr. Benjamin Rush

of Philadelphia, who was with Washington that day. Dr. Rush

attended to the wants of his wounded foe with more than ordi-

nary interest, in return, as he told General Washington, for some

obligation which he owed to Captain Leslie's father for many

kindnesses received at his hands when a student at the univer-

sity in Edinburgh. Captain Leslie was carried off with the army

on their march northward, and received every possible attention,

but he died the next morning near Pluckemin, and on the follow-

ing day, January 5, was interred with military honors in the vil-

lage cemetery at Pluckemin. General Leslie, when he heard of

the respect shown his nephew by the American officers, was

greatly affected, and, when the opportunity occurred, sent his

acknowledgments to General Washington by Lieutenant-Colonel

Fitzgerald of Washington's staff, who, some days after the bat-

tle of Princeton, entered the British lines under flag of truce.

Dr. Rush further showed his regard for the father of the young

officer by erecting a monument to Captain Leslie's memory in the old graveyard at Pluckemin. The following is the inscription

thereon : —



In Memory of the

Honble Captn Willm Leslie

of the 17th British Regiment

Son of the Earl of Leven



in Scotland

He fell Jany 3d 1777 Aged

26 Years at the battle of

Princeton

His friend Benjn Rush, M. D. of

Philadelphia

hath caused this Stone

to be erected as a mark

of his esteem for his WORTH

and of his respect

for his noble family [12]





July 12, 1775[13]

Nicholas Cresswell[14] left for Fort Finecastle (now Wheeling, WV) and got to Mr. David Shepherd’s. Saw an Alum Mine near to Mr. Shepherd’s with a good coal in a limestone rock. Hired a horse from one of the neighbors to go to Valentine Crawford’s place. (NOTE: Nicholas Cresswell, who is described as a Rabid Torry (1759-1804) landed on the American shore at Virginia in the spring of 1774 and in 1777 escaped service in the American Revolutionary War. He was under surveillance as a British spy.)[15]



July 12, 1776: On July 12 the British sent five ships up the Hudson River. Some American guns on the Manhattan bluffs opened fire, but in his General Orders the next day Washington remarked, more in sorrow than in anger, on the behavior of many of his cannoneers.




Gen. George Washington - New York Campaign[16]



No, 35.—William CRAWFORD TO George WASHINGTON.

(William Crawford is the compilers 6trh great grandfather)





FORT PITT, July 12, 1779.



DEAR GENERAL :—Sometime last summer, I wrote you in regard to my being left out of[17] the Virginia Line, as it put it out of my power to serve as an officer with the Continental army with my proper rank; but I do not know whether my letter came to your hands or not.[18]

When General McIntosh went to Headquarter’s this spring, he told me he would acquaint you with my case.[19]

-



He gave me for answer that I must attend at headquarters myself; or I could not have the matter settled ; but that I might have to stay some time to have my matters some way arranged; which I must beg leave to do, there being a way of having them now done, Congress having sent an auditor to this Department for the purpose of settling ac­counts of the army.

Colonel Clark’s affairs have changed the disposition of the Indians much.[20] They have done very little mischief this summer; and in particular since the people down the river burnt the Shawnese town, or part of it, and killed three of their chief men.[21] A very little trouble would destroy the whole of the Shawanese towns by sending a party of about six hundred men to the mouth of Licking creek [22], below the Scioto; from there, it is no more than fifty miles, as I am informed, by those that were in the action, and a good road the whole way, there being no hills or defiles to prevent us from carrying two field pieces, four, to six pounders, that would batter down block-houses which the Shawanese have built to defend themselves in their towns. The people at Kentucky and at the Falls would be glad, as they have informed us that they would join a party from this place for that purpose. When the corn is in roasting ears would be a good time for the expedition. I only mention this, Sir, for your consideration, in case matters should not be otherwise settled.

Colonel Brodhead has spoken to me to join him with some of the militia of Virginia to go on a short campaign againtist a Mingo town up the Alleghany, which I have agreed to; as I would not wish to hurt the service, or leave it in the power of him to say I did not do everything I could to serve my country; which is- the only motive I have for? serving one moment.[23] As soon as that is done and my accounts are settled, I will attend at headquarters, unless you should order me otherwise.

As soon as Fort Randolph, at the mouth of the Kanawha, was evacuated, the Indians burnt it,[24] Agreeable to my promise, I advertised your land on Miller’s run, forewarning all persons from purchasing any part of it, as some were proposing selling it; and I shall do it again, as the land office is now open for patenting lands in the New Purchase.1 I hope, Sir, you will excuse my troubling you with this long letter. I am, etc.[25]





Summer, 1779

In the summer of 1779, there was a partial uprising of Tories in Montgomery County, where Colonel Walter Crockett, by his energy, succeeded in quelling the insurrection before it had gained much headway. The same Tory spirit had extended itself into Washington County and even into the Watauga and Nolachucky settlements; but the leaders were not open in their movements, rather like bandits, struck their blows in the dark, under disguises and concealments. Colonel Campbell was very out spoken against them. Francis Hopkins’, (the Tory bandit) reckless character was well known, a leader of a mountain clan of desperadoes, who had long infested the country, committing robberies on defenceless people along the thinly populatede frontiers. Campbell discovered and captured Hopkins. Hopkins, who had been insolent to Campbell, was speedily hung to the limb of a convenient sycamore that leaned over the river. [26]

[13] Beginning with the ‘Journal of Nicholas Cresswell’ July 12, 1775, as he was returning from the Illinois trip of failure, to the neighborhood of Col. William and Valentine Crawford. He was at this time, planning another escapade. This time into Indian country of Ohio.

(Cresswell) From River Clyde to Tymochtee and Col. William Crawford by Grace U. Emahiser, 1969 pg. 138.

[14] Nicholas Cresswell, who is described as a rabid Tory, (1750-1804), landed on the American Shore at Virginiea, spring of 1774 and in 1777, escaped the heat of the American Revolutionary War, by sheer luck. During his stay among the coloniesw of his native England, Cresswell drew credit on every one he possibly knew, in order to survive; while he wasted very little time on work. Being under surveillance as a British spy, he became disillusioned with his lot. Provoking terror upon himself by arguing, on and for the cause of his E”nglish government, against the new found liberty of the colonists, he tried one scheme after another, trying to be compatible while promoting his Tory ideas.

[17]Crawford having been detached from the 13th Virginia regiment, was never after able to secure his proper place in the Continental line, much as Washington desired to accommodate him.

[18] This letter was probably never received by Washington.

[19] In May, 1778, Brigadier-General Lachlan Mcintosh, was appointed by Washington to the command of the Western Department, at at Fort Pitt. He arrived at that post early in August, relieving Brigadier-General Edward Hand. His exertions were directed against Detroit, to accomplish the destruction of which, he caused to be built, in October, Fort Mcintosh, near the present site of Beaver, in Beaver county, Pennsylvania and afterward, marching into the Indian country, erected Fort Laurens upon the Tuscarawas, half a mile below the present town of Bolivar, in Tuscarawas county, Ohio. his plans against Detroit proved, in the end, abortive; and in the spring of 1779 he was recalled at his own request, being succeeded in command by Colonel Daniel Brodhead, of the 8th Pennsylvania regiment. He repaired immediately thereafter to Washington’s headquarters as mentioned by Crawford in the above letter.

[20] Early in 1778, LieutenantColonel George Rogers Clark, having planned a secret expedition against the Illinois country, then in posession of Great Britain, arrived in the western country to further his plans. In May, with a small force, he set sail for the Falls of the Ohio, The result of the expedition was the capture of Kaskaskia, St. Phillips, Cahokia, Prairie du Rocher, and Vincennes. The effect was, as Crawford states, to change, for a time, the disposition of many of the Western Indians, and, permanently so, a number of tribes living upon the Mississippi river nearest to the scenes of his conquest,

[21] In the month of May, 1779, Colonel John Bowman, of Kentucky, Collected together a small army to attack Chillicothe, a Shawanese town about three miles north of the present town of Xenia, county--seat of Greene county, Ohio. With two hundred and sixty--two men, early in the morning of the 30th of that month, he encompassed the village and set fire to it. His success was only partial in its destruction-the council-house of the enemy defying the assaults of the Americans. After killing several of the savages and securing a large amount of plunder, the expedition returned with slight loss, proving by no means a failure, although not as much was accomplished as had been expected.

[22]“Licking creek” empties into the Ohio, at Covington, Kentucky, opposite the city of Cincinnati, It was at its mouth that the companies under Bowman rendezvoused,

[23] At the date of this letter, the Senecas and Monseys, from their towns far up the Alleghany river, were so much in the habit of maurading upon the northern frontier line of the Western settlements, that Colonel Daniel Brodlhead, then in command at Fort Pitt, resolved to punish thier audacity, by marching against them from that post, early in August. his expedition was successful. It effectually checked the murderous incursions of the, savages from the north. Crawford accompanied the army “with some of the militia of Virginia” as he expresses it; meaning thereby the militia of his region, who were still spoken of as Virginians.

[24] Fort Randolph, at Point Pleasant, was evacuated not long previous to this date. It was built in the spring of 1775, by Virginia troops under command of Captain Matthew Arbuckle.
