January 31, 439: Promulgation of the Code of Theodosius II in the Byzantine Empire. This was the first imperial compilation of anti- Jewish laws since Constantine. Jews were prohibited from holding important positions involving money including judicial and executive offices and the ban against building new synagogues was reinstated. Theodosius was the Roman emperor of the East (408–450) The Code was readily accepted as well by Western Roman Emperor Valentinian III (425-455).[1]

448 CE: It is clear that the Khazars were closely connected to the Huns, who themselves are an ethnic mystery. The Byzantine rhetorician Priscus, who was part of an embassy to Attila the Hun’s court in 448 CE, reported that a people known as the “Akatzirs” or “White Khazars” were subjects of the Huns. According to Koestler (1976, p. 23), “Priscus’s chronicle confirms that the Khazars appeared on the European scene about the middle of the fifth century as a people under Hunnish sovereignty, and may be regarded, together with the Magyars and other tribes, as a later offspring of Attila’s horde.” After the collapse of the Hunnish Empire following Attila’s death, the confederation of tribes known as the Khazars eventually gained supremacy in the southern half of Eastern Europe, retaining control of this region for nearly four centuries.

Gov. Z. B. Vance

Governor;

The Arms &c. have at length reach Asheville and I have turned the whole over to Col. W. R. Young,[18] in persueance of your instructions. I have forwarded his recp’t. to Maj. T. D. Hogg.[19]

I learn that the Laurel expedition is about over. I can’t give you any of the details of the affair. I suppose the proper officers will report to you. I learn that a number of prisoners were shot without any trial or hearing whatever. I hope this is not true, but if so, the parties guilty of so dark a crime should be punished. Humanity revolts at so savage a crime. Our Militia had nothing to do with what was done in Laurel. I am glad of this. It turns out that the Militia were not really needed. So I thought in the outset and advised our people, but they & Genl. Polk[20] Could not be satisfied without calling our the Militia.

Nothing new-All well.

I Am &c Yrs. Truly,

A.S. Merrimont[21] [22]

Lutheran Cemetery, was situated about one hundred and fifty yards northwest of the railroad depot. The exact number of graves of Union soldiers buried in this Cemetery could not be ascertained, on account of the indiscriminate burial of rebels in the same ground; also on account of the irregularity of the graves, and of the want of head-boards.

In this (Lutheran Cemetery, North Carolina) Cemetery were buried fourteen (14) Union soldiers, who, upon taking the oath of allegiance to the rebel government, were admitted into the rebel hospital, where they afterwards died. There is no record of State, regiment, or arm of service of these men; no head-boards at their graves; and therefore they cannot be identified.

The bodies from this Cemetery, and some others from the vicinity of Salisbury, estimated in all at about one hundred (100) in number, are now being re-interred in the principal Cemetery.[26]

January 31, 1872: Zane Grey, author of Riders of the Purple Sage, is born in Zanesville, Ohio.

The son of a successful dentist, Grey enjoyed a happy and solid upper-middle-class childhood, marred only by occasional fistfights with boys who teased him about his unusual first name, Pearl. (Grey later replaced it with his mother's maiden name, Zane.) A talented baseball player as teen, Grey caught the eye of a scout for the University of Pennsylvania college team, who convinced him to study there. In 1886, he graduated with a degree in dentistry and moved to New York to begin his practice.

Grey's interest in dentistry was half-hearted at best, and he did not relish the idea of replicating his father's safe but unexciting career path. Searching for an alternative, Grey decided to try his hand at writing; his first attempt was an uninspiring historical novel about a family ancestress. At that point, Grey might well have been doomed to a life of dentistry, had he not met Colonel C. J. "Buffalo" Jones in 1908, who convinced Grey to write Jones' biography. More importantly, Jones took him out West to gather material for the book, and Grey became deeply fascinated with the people and landscape of the region.

Grey's biography of Jones debuted in 1908 as The Last of the Plainsmen to little attention, but he was inspired to concentrate his efforts on writing historical romances of the West. In 1912, he published the novel that earned him lasting fame, Riders of the Purple Sage. Like the equally popular Owen Wister novel, The Virginian (1902), the basic theme of Riders revolves around the transformation of a weak and effeminate easterner into a man of character and strength through his exposure to the culture and land of the American West. Grey's protagonist, the Ohio-born Bern Venters, spends several weeks being tested by the rugged canyon country of southern Utah before finding his way back to civilization. Venters, Grey writes, "had gone away a boy-he had returned a man."

Though Riders of the Purple Sage was Grey's most popular novel, he wrote 78 other books during his prolific career, most of them Westerns. He died in 1939, but Grey's work continued to be extraordinarily popular for decades to come, and by 1955, his books had sold more than 31 millions copies around the world. With the possible exception of Riders, today Grey's books are little read, and most modern readers find them insufferably pompous, moralizing, and sentimental. Nonetheless, Grey played a pivotal role in creating the Western genre that, in the hands of more recent authors like Louis L'Amour, continues to charm many dedicated fans.[29]

January 31, 1907: The death of Eliezer Roos - 28 years of Jewish teachers in Werneck (1907)

Werneck Israelit 31011907.jpg (128092 Byte)Article in the magazine "The Israelite" by January 31, 1907: "Frankfurt am Main, January 30 (1907)." A man of rare values, a Talmid Chacham (scholar), in the deepest sense of the word is been snatched us: Eliezer Roos, who is son of well known Secretary of the Pekidim in Amsterdam, Rabbi Jakob Roos - the memory of the righteous is the blessing - at the 11 Schwat blessed the temporal. Born in Amsterdam, was it the Heimgegangenen vergönnt to the feet of the greatest of his time. Rabbi Jakob Ettlingers and Rabbi Israel Hildesheimer for the true students of the wise to mature, and as a living example to the power of the Jewish teaching zeitigende wisdom and character size, Eliezer Roos has proved in a silent and yet richly blessed life. Twenty-eight years he has in a Bavarian rural town in Werneck, had taught in his community not only, but also in the circle of his colleagues a focus on lively intellectual striving, founder and promoter of the Bavarian State Teachers Association, the actual creator of the Jewish Hospital in Würzburg, but especially the father of a Jewish House, seemed to have taken the philanthropy in person in their place. The Unhappiest all unfortunate, the Jewish inmates of the State lunatic asylum in Werneck, know to tell. In the atmosphere of his sons and daughters have grown under the care of a spouse-worthy mother the Heimgegangenen, that understood it in life, to carry his father's ideals. To be near them, the departed moved eight years ago here to Frankfurt, where he ward loved and honored in the like-minded circle of the Israelite religious society as one of the best and most real Torageistes. Now he is been dismissed suddenly after a happy successful operation in terms that healed in his home to return. On his grave, Mr Rabbi Dr. Breuer in poignant words marked the importance of Heimgegangenen son of Torah, as a character, as one from a circle of auserwählten pious (?), which are unfortunately less and less with us. Mr dedicated words of worship and Thanksgiving Rector Falk called the Bavarian country teachers Association. " His soul is bound up in the Covenant of life."[32]

January 31, 1934

Congress passes the Farm Mortgage Refinancing Act, providing easier credit terms to farmers.[34]

January 31, 1938: The Palestine Post reported that Romania officially denounced the Minorities Treaty intowhich it had entered upon gaining independence at the Peace Conference at Versailles, and claimed that the Jewish question was now "a purely internal matter" over which the League of Nations had no more jurisdiction. This meant that Romania now felt free to implement still more severe anti-Semitic discriminatory measures.[35]

1938: The Palestine Post reported on the rise of anti-Jewish feelings and vandalism in Yugoslavia including the fact that "local Nazis" had smashed the windows out of the Sephardic synagogue of Belgrade.[36]

January 31, 1941: Three thousand Jews were taken from their villages and moved into the Warsaw Ghetto. Another 70,000 Jews would be uprooted and moved into the Warsaw Ghetto by the end of March.[37]

January 31, 1942: Einsatzgruppe A commanding officer, Franz W. Stahlecker, sent a detailed report about activities in the Baltic and White Russian countries. It stated that between July 23 and October 15, 1941, 135,567 Jews were killed. Eichmann sent out a letter making official the conclusions of the Wannsee Conference, "The evacuation of the Jews . . . is the beginning of the final solution of the Jewish problem."[38]

January 31, 1942: Yorktown, Enterprise, and their respective task forces parted ways, and early the next morning swept across the International Date Line into January 31. With less than 24 hours remaining before their first offensive mission of the war, the men of Enterprise and her Air Group prepared. Fighting Six installed homemade armor - literally made of boilerplate - behind the seat of each Wildcat, a vital if weighty addition their Japanese counterparts would never consider. Halsey ordered each ship rigged for towing and for being towed, not wanting to waste a minute should any ship need help escaping after the raid. Navigators and airmen poured over aged maps, picking out reefs and targets. At 1830, Task Force 8 began its final run-in to the launching point, the ocean waves hissing past hulls at 30 knots, each of Enterprise's four 13-ton propellers revolving 275 times a minute. [39]

Howard Snell (Uncle) was on board the Enterprise.

January 31, 1943

German General Paulus surrenders his army to the Soviets in Stalingrad.[40]

January 31, 1950: U.S. President Harry S. Truman publicly announces his decision to support the development of the hydrogen bomb, a weapon theorized to be hundreds of times more powerful than the atomic bombs dropped on Japan during World War II.

Five months earlier, the United States had lost its nuclear supremacy when the Soviet Union successfully detonated an atomic bomb at their test site in Kazakhstan. Then, several weeks after that, British and U.S. intelligence came to the staggering conclusion that German-born Klaus Fuchs, a top-ranking scientist in the U.S. nuclear program, was a spy for the Soviet Union. These two events, and the fact that the Soviets now knew everything that the Americans did about how to build a hydrogen bomb, led Truman to approve massive funding for the superpower race to complete the world's first "superbomb," as he described it in his public announcement on January 31.

January 31, 1971: MINNIE ELIZABETH WHITSETT (6th cousin 2x removed), b. June 01, 1886, Jackson County, Missouri; d. January 31, 1971, Kansas City, Missouri. [41]

[15] Catawba. Southern Indian tribe. Living in piedmont area of Virginia south to South Carolina (Catawba River). Other Southern Indians—see Cherokee, Chickasaws, Choctaws, and Seminoles. With the exception of the Cherokees, the Southern Indians spoke a Muskogee language (also given as Muskhogean). Catawbas and Delawares were long-time enemies. This enmity was used to the colonist’s advantage when fighting the Delaware. Another Catawba enemy was the Iroquois who traveled south from NY on the “Catawba Path” on war parties. The Catawba Path generally started at Olean, NY (on the upper Allegheny River) and south through Indiana, PA and Uniontown, PA, south to Morgantown, WVA and on south. Some historians view the Catawba as a confederation of small tribes combining due to losses from disease and fights against the settlers. This combining would have taken place around 1650. The “Catawba” is a name given to the group by the European settlers. The word Catawba is from the Choctaw.

Another story has it that the Catawba were formed from remnants of the Erie Nation. When the Erie were defeated by the Iroquois in the 1650s many were chased south and came to rest in northwestern South Carolina. The Iroquois spoke of the Catawba as being “bad Indian” or “devil Catawba.” In the 1700s when the Iroquois would treat with Virginia officials they would always insist on rights to travel through the colony on their way to fight the Catawba. Fighting the Catawba seemed to be a right of passage for an Iroquois warrior.

"Branch of Warrior Trail of the Great Catawba Indian War Path located here where Mason and Dixon Survey crossed Dunkard Creek for third time. Guide, Six Nations Indians' chief, declared he 'would not proceed one step further,' because hostile Delaware and Shawnee Indians had ordered them to halt. On Oct. 18, 1767, western end of original Mason-Dixon Line was set on the next high peak, Brown's Hill."

This area is in Monongalia County, WV and is located southwest of Mt. Morris in Greene County, PA and a few miles east of Blacksville, WV on County Road 39. At the intersection leading to the park is a marker titled: "Border Heroine." The inscription is "During the Indian raids in 1779 upon the settlements on Dunkard Creek, savages attacked the cabin of John Bozarth. Armed only with an axe, in a brief hand-to-hand fight, Mrs. Bozarth; killed three of the men." (See Anna Bozarth.)

Note: Catawba grapes are light-red in color and grow in the Carolinas as well as on the Lake Erie Islands and Sandusky area of Ohio. A light, dry wine is made from this grape. If you're in the area of Put-in-Bay, Ohio—visit the winery on Catawba Avenue. (JC)

[24] Mrs. Cordelia A. P. Harvey

Among the women whom the Civil War brought to the front as leaders, such as Louisa Lee Schuyler, Dorothea Dix, and Anna Dickinson, Mrs. Cordelia A. Perrine Harvey from Wisconsin, deserves a place.

In some respects she was a national flgure, one of the great army-nurses whose work was not limited by state lines.

Early Life

The early life of this remarkable woman did not differ from that of other Wisconsin women of her day, who spent their lives in small towns, busy with the daily routine. She lived for many years in Kenosha, where her father's family, the Perrines, were prominent in the decade of the forties.
The Perrine's were Huguenots that had settled in New Jersey and earlier generations had fought in the Battle Of Monmouth during the Revolution as it was fought on their farm.( Rev. K. L. Schaub)
There she taught school, and there she was married to a school-teacher, Louis P. Harvey. In 1845, the young couple moved to Clinton Junction where Mr. Harvey kept a country store. Thence they removed their home to Shopiere in Rock County, where they remained until 1859, when Mr. Harvey's election as Secretary of State made his presence in Madison necessary. Mr. Harvey was a person of strong personality and political sagacity, and in 1861 the people of Wisconsin elected him Governor. From the day of the firing on Fort Sumter both he and his wife showed a deep interest in the Civil War. A company of volunteers were named for the Governor, the "Harvey Zouaves; " to each of its members Mrs. Harvey presented a Bible and a Testament; with additional remembrances for the officer.

In the busy days which followed the first call for troops, Mrs. Harvey entered with enthusiasm into work for the soldiers and their families. She was enabled to give her time, because she and her husband were boarding, and she was not ecumbered with household duties.

William I Montagu, alias de Montacute, 1st Earl of Salisbury, 3rd Baron Montacute, King of Mann (1301 - January 30, 1344) was an English nobleman and loyal servant of King Edward III.[3]

His final international commission took place late in 1343, when he accompanied Henry of Grosmont, Earl of Derby, on a diplomatic mission to Castile.[3] Early in 1344 he was back in England, where he took part in a great tournament at Windsor. It was during this tournament, according to the chronicler Adam Murimuth, that he received wounds that would prove fatal.[3] Salisbury died on January 30, 1344. He was buried at Bisham Priory in Berkshire, adjoining his home, Bisham Manor. He had founded the priory himself in 1337, on his elevation to the earldom.[28] King Edward's financial obligations were never paid in full during the earl's lifetime, and at Salisbury' death the king owed him £11,720. Of this, some £6374 were written off by his executors in 1346.[4]

January 30, 1540…16th-Century Trial Records Reveal Priest's Magic 'Superpowers'

The man who prosecuted Calderon was Fray Juan de Zumarraga (his statue is shown here), the archbishop of Mexico and Apostolic Inquisitor of New Spain. For reasons unknown he gave Calderon a light sentence, prohibiting him from saying mass for two years and exiling him back to Spain.

On January 30, 1540, in Mexico City, at a time when Spain was carving out an empire in the New World, an epic trial got under way.

An ordained Catholic priest named Pedro Ruiz Calderón was being prosecuted for practicing black magic. The priest actually bragged about the powers he had acquired according to records a researcher is working on publishing.

He claimed to be able to teleport between continents, make himself invisible, make women fall in love with him, predict the future, turn metals into gold, summon and exorcise demons and, most importantly, discover buried treasure.

"He really typifies all of the major types of learned magic, from summoning and conjuring demons, to exorcising demons to the powers of cloaking himself, making himself invisible," said John Chuchiak IV, a professor at Missouri State University who translates and publishes documents recording the opening of the trial in his new book "The Inquisition in New Spain 1536-1820"(John Hopkins University Press, 2012). [See Photos of the Trial Records]

"He could hypnotize people, too; it's one of the earliest, I think, descriptions of hypnotism, mesmerizing people."

At the start of the trial, Calderón was denounced in a speech by Miguel López de Legazpi, the Secretary of the Holy Office, who would later become a conquistador in the Philippines. In translation, the trial records state that "many persons have made it known before him [Legazpi] that the said Calderón knows of the Black Arts and that he learned them from others." The records go on to claim that Calderón is able to make himself invisible and can travel across great distances in a short amount of time. "It's just fascinating. The story just goes on and on," Chuchiak told LiveScience of the more than 100 pages of trial records.

Included in the trial records is a list of books Calderon was found with. The most puzzling material was a group of archival letters written in a special cipher that Calderon claimed to be able to read, no one else could.

The prosecutor Fray Juan de Zumárraga, the Franciscan archbishop of Mexico and apostolic inquisitor of New Spain, was known for his extreme punishments. "Other people he had their tongue split for very minor blasphemy," said Chuchiak. In the end, for reasons unknown, the bishop gave Calderón only a minor punishment — exile back to Spain and a prohibition from giving Catholic services for two years; Zumárraga may have wanted to get rid of him without publicly executing a priest. What happens to Calderón after he is exiled is not known.

Journey to hell

According to the trial records, Calderón claimed that he went to hell itself to acquire some of his abilities. At one point, the records say he was in Naples, working for a viceroy.

"He and three men went to explore a cave. He said it was 3,000 leagues below the surface of the Earth," said Chuchiak, summarizing the Spanish language account. Apparently, the men got stuck there, with most of Calderón's companions dying.

"He actually descended to the depths of hell, he said, and there he learned the secrets of the science of the black arts and alchemy." [Time Travel & Reincarnation: 10 Tales of Superhuman Abilities]

Calderón did not return empty-handed, Chuchiak said.

"He brought back books from hell. He said one of them had the signature of the devil, the prince of darkness."

When Calderón was arrested, his library was seized. None of the books contained the signature of the devil; however, some intriguing books were found, including Albertus Magnus' "Secrets,"a manual on how to conduct exorcisms, and a book by Dr. Arnaldo de Villanueva called the "Treasure of Treasures,"in which it describes techniques to find buried treasures. The library also held "archival letters written in some mysterious writing, a certain cipher that he claimed that he could read," Chuchiak said. "No one else could read it."

Why did he do it?

Why a priest like Calderón may have strayed so far off may be due to two rather earthly things — bragging rights and financial gain.

The list of books goes on. Among them was a work by Dr. Arnaldo de Villanueva called the "Treasure of Treasures." As its name suggests it was supposed to help people find buried treasures.

Chuchiak notes that Calderón loved to brag. After the trial was over, he caught pneumonia, was sent to the infirmary, and while there, "he was bragging about his ability to cloak himself and to win over almost any woman that he could," he said, again summarizing the Spanish account. In other instances, "he talks about all the women that he slept with. He talks about how he's able to get away with having mistresses and sneaking in an out of their bedrooms," his supposed invisibility powers helping with this.

There is also evidence that he profited from his abilities. Records indicate that, superpowers or not, he often found buried treasure.

According to the translated trial record, Gil González de Benavides, a conquistador, testified that "he had witnessed that the said Calderón had discovered the whereabouts of several baskets filled with golden ornaments and items that the natives had hidden from the Spaniards." "Apparently, he got lucky and did find treasures, that made his fame wider," said Chuchiak. "People came to him and asked him for help finding lost things, lost people, lost treasures," services for which Calderón was paid.

His superpowers were, of course, false, said Chuchiak; if Calderón could have made himself invisible or teleported between continents, he could have escaped his trial. That, Chuchiak added, is always the problem with people who claim they could perform black magic.

"They [the inquisitors] always challenge them to practice their black art. But they didn't do it, they couldn't do it," said Chuchiak. In the end, Calderón was just a man who had made great claims and was now facing trial. "Obviously he's just boasting," Chuchiak said.[6]

January 30, 1563: To THE Cardinal of Lorraine. [7]

From Edinburgh, the 30th January, 1563.

My uncle, — Having the present opportunity of writing to you, I am desirous of maintaining myself in your favour; wherefore I the more readily do so, since the present occasion happens so seasonably, being assured by the Cardinal of Granvelle that he will forward this letter to you, along with one which I have addressed to our most Holy Father, and which I beg you will present to him from me with the submission which I owe to him ; in which I am resolved to live and to die, by never departing from the fellowship of the ancient Catholic and Roman Church, of which I hold him to be the Head and Shepherd ; beseeching him to consider me his devoted daughter, testifying to him — as you can do, if you please — my displeasure with this miserable country, and to

believe that I shall esteem myself happy to be able to amend it, even at the cost of life itself, which I would sooner lose, than, by changing my faith, approve of their heresies in any part.

I am sure that he will listen to you ; wherefore, I beseech you that, if in any thing I have been deficient in my duty towards religion, you will make my excuse to him ; as no one knows better than you, both my inclination and my ability. I shall be still farther obliged, by your informing me what is determined by the Holy Assembly,*[8] in order that

in so far as regards myself, and those over whom I have authority, and who are still unchanged — it may be observed ; and which, on my part, shall be inviolably.

I shall conclude by praying that God may grant you, my uncle, grace to do something of importance for His glory, and the peace of so many good kingdoms that are in trouble, and have so much need of repose. And, with this wish, I offer to you my affectionate remembrances.

From Lislebourg,* [9] this 30th of January, 1563.

Your very obedient and good niece,

Marie. [10] (Mary Queen of Scots 9th cousin 13x removed)

January 30, 1569: Mary arrived at Rotherham, where she was obliged to leave one of her attendants. Lady Livingston, who had fallen sick on the journey. [11]

January 30, 1615: Pocahontas (4th great grandmother of the wife of the brother in law of the 6th cousin 7x removed) and John Rolfe (4th great grandfather of the wife of the brother in law of the 6th cousin 7x removed) were married on April 5, 1614, and lived for two years on Rolfe's plantation, Varina Farms, which was located across the James River from the new community of Henricus. They had a child, Thomas Rolfe, born on January 30, 1615.

Their marriage was not successful in winning the English captives back, but it did create a climate of peace between the Jamestown colonists and Powhatan's tribes for several years; in 1615, Ralph Hamor wrote:

Since the wedding we have had friendly commerce and trade not only with Powhatan but also with his subjects round about us.[45]

The "Sedgeford Portrait", said to represent Pocahontas and her son, although its authenticity is debated.[46]

The Virginia Company of London had long seen one of its primary goals as the conversion of Native Americans to Christianity. With the conversion of Pocahontas and her marriage to an Englishman–all of which helped bring an end to the First Anglo-Powhatan War–the company saw an opportunity to promote investment. The company decided to bring Pocahontas to England as a symbol of the tamed New World "savage" and the success of the Jamestown settlement.[12]

January 30, 1648: Spain and the United Netherlands sign The Treaty of Münster and Osnabrück marking the end of the eighty year long Dutch revolt against Spanish rule. The treaty guarantees the independence of the Protestant Netherlands from the rule of Catholic Spain and the Holy Roman Empire. It means that the Jewish community in the Netherlands, which includes many Sephardic refugees and Marranos, will be able to grow and flourish.[13]

Charles I (November 19, 1600 – January 30, 1649) was King of England, King of Scotland, and King of Ireland from March 27, 1625 until his execution in 1649.[a] Charles engaged in a struggle for power with the Parliament of England, attempting to obtain royal revenue whilst the Parliament sought to curb his Royal prerogative which Charles believed was divinely ordained. Many of his English subjects opposed his actions, in particular his interference in the English and Scottish churches and the levying of taxes without parliamentary consent, because they saw them as those of a tyrannical, absolute monarch.[1][14]

Execution

http://bits.wikimedia.org/static-1.22wmf2/skins/common/images/magnify-clip.png

This contemporary German print depicts Charles I's decapitation.

Charles Stuart, as his death warrant states, was beheaded on Tuesday, January 30, 1649. It was reported that before the execution he wore warmer clothing to prevent the cold weather causing any noticeable shivers that the crowd could have mistaken for fear or weakness.[1]

"the season is so sharp as probably may make me shake, which some observers may imagine proceeds from fear. I would have no such imputation."[1]

The execution took place at Whitehall on a scaffold in front of the Banqueting House. Charles was separated from the people by large ranks of soldiers, and his last speech reached only those with him on the scaffold. He declared that he had desired the liberty and freedom of the people as much as any, "but I must tell you that their liberty and freedom consists in having government.... It is not their having a share in the government; that is nothing appertaining unto them. A subject and a sovereign are clean different things."[157]

Charles put his head on the block after saying a prayer and signalled the executioner when he was ready; he was then beheaded with one clean stroke. His last words were, "I shall go from a corruptible to an incorruptible Crown, where no disturbance can be."[1]

Philip Henry records that moments after the execution, a moan was heard from the assembled crowd, some of whom then dipped their handkerchiefs in his blood, thus starting the cult of the Martyr King; however, no other eyewitness source, including Samuel Pepys, records this. Henry's account was written during the Restoration, some 12 years after the event, although Henry was 19 when the King was executed and he and his family were Royalist propaganda writers. (See J Rushworth in R Lockyer (ed) The Trial of King Charles I pp. 133–4)

The executioner was masked, and there is some debate over his identity. It is known that the Commissioners approached Richard Brandon, the common Hangman of London, but that he refused, and contemporary sources do not generally identify him as the King's headsman. Ellis's Historical Inquiries, however, names him as the executioner, contending that he stated so before dying. It is possible he relented and agreed to undertake the commission, but there are others who have been identified. An Irishman named Gunning is widely believed to have beheaded Charles, and a plaque naming him as the executioner is on show in the Kings Head pub in Galway, Ireland. William Hewlett was convicted of regicide after the Restoration.[180] In 1661, two people identified as "Dayborne and Bickerstaffe" were arrested but then discharged. Henry Walker, a revolutionary journalist, was suspected, as was his brother William, but neither was ever charged. Various local legends around England name local worthies. An examination performed in 1813 at Windsor suggests that the execution was carried out by an experienced headsman.

It was common practice for the head of a traitor to be held up and exhibited to the crowd with the words "Behold the head of a traitor!" Although Charles's head was exhibited, the words were not used. In an unprecedented gesture, one of the revolutionary leaders, Oliver Cromwell, allowed the King's head to be sewn back onto his body so the family could pay its respects.[15]

•March 27, 1625 – January 30, 1649: His Majesty the King

During his time as heir apparent, Charles held the titles of Prince of Wales and Earl of Chester, Duke of Cornwall, Duke of Rothesay, Duke of York, Duke of Albany, Marquess of Ormond, Earl of Carrick, Earl of Ross, Baron Renfrew, Lord Ardmannoch, Lord of the Isles, Prince and Great Steward of Scotland.

The official style of Charles I was "Charles, by the Grace of God, King of England, France and Ireland, King of Scots, Defender of the Faith, etc." (The claim to France was only nominal, and was asserted by every English King from Edward III to George III, regardless of the amount of French territory actually controlled.) The authors of his death warrant, however, did not wish to use the religious portions of his title. It referred to him only as "Charles Stuart, King of England".[16]

January 30, 1649: In London, King Charles I is beheaded for treason on January 30, 1649.

Charles ascended to the English throne in 1625 following the death of his father, King James I. In the first year of his reign, Charles offended his Protestant subjects by marrying Henrietta Maria, a Catholic French princess. He later responded to political opposition to his rule by dissolving Parliament on several occasions and in 1629 decided to rule entirely without Parliament. In 1642, the bitter struggle between king and Parliament for supremacy led to the outbreak of the first English civil war.

The Parliamentarians were led by Oliver Cromwell, whose formidable Ironsides force won an important victory against the king's Royalist forces at Marston Moor in 1644 and at Naseby in 1645. As a leader of the New Model Army in the second English civil war, Cromwell helped repel the Royalist invasion of Scotland, and in 1646 Charles surrendered to a Scottish army. In 1648, Charles was forced to appear before a high court controlled by his enemies, where he was convicted of treason and sentenced to death. Early in the next year, he was beheaded.

The monarchy was abolished, and Cromwell assumed control of the new English Commonwealth. In 1658, Cromwell died and was succeeded by his eldest son, Richard, who was forced to flee to France in the next year with the restoration of the monarchy and the crowning of Charles II, the son of Charles I. Oliver Cromwell was posthumously convicted of treason, and his body was disinterred from its tomb in Westminster Abbey and hanged from the gallows at Tyburn.[18]

Charles I was executed on January 30, 1649.

Arms of the Commonwealth

After the execution of the King, a republic was declared, known as the Commonwealth of England. The Rump Parliament exercised both executive and legislative powers, with a smaller Council of State also having some executive functions. Cromwell remained a member of the Rump and was appointed a member of the Council. In the early months after the execution of Charles I, Cromwell tried but failed to unite the original group of 'Royal Independents' centred around St John and Saye and Sele, which had fractured during 1648. Cromwell had been connected to this group since before the outbreak of war in 1642 and had been closely associated with them during the 1640s. However, only St John was persuaded to retain his seat in Parliament. The Royalists, meanwhile, had regrouped in Ireland, having signed a treaty with the Irish Confederate Catholics. In March, Cromwell was chosen by the Rump to command a campaign against them. Preparations for an invasion of Ireland occupied Cromwell in the subsequent months. In the latter part of the 1640s, Cromwell came across political dissidence in his New Model Army. The “Leveller,” or “Agitator,” movement was a political movement that emphasised popular sovereignty, extended suffrage, equality before the law, and religious tolerance. These sentiments were expressed in the manifesto “Agreement of the People” in 1647. Cromwell and the rest of the Grandees disagreed with these sentiments in that they gave too much freedom to the people; they believed that the vote should only extend to the landowners. In the Putney Debates of 1647, the two groups debated these topics in hopes of forming a new constitution for England. There were rebellions and mutinies following the debates, and in 1649, the Bishopsgate mutiny resulted in the execution of Leveller Robert Lockyer by firing squad. The next month, the Banbury mutiny occurred with similar results. Cromwell led the charge in quelling these rebellions. After quelling Leveller mutinies within the English army at Andover and Burford in May, Cromwell departed for Ireland from Bristol at the end of July.[39]

The official style of Charles II was "Charles the Second, by the Grace of God, King of England, Scotland, France and Ireland, Defender of the Faith, etc."[77] The claim to France was only nominal, and had been asserted by every English King since Edward III, regardless of the amount of French territory actually controlled.[21]

January 30, 1649: The traditional date of the Restoration marking the first assembly of King and Parliament together since the abolition of the English monarchy in 1649. The English Parliament recognised Charles as King of England by unanimous vote on May 2, 1660, and he was proclaimed King in London on May 8, although royalists had recognised him as such since the execution of his father on January 30: 1649. During Charles's reign all legal documents were dated as if his reign began at his father's death.[22]

January 30, 1661: Symbolically the 12th anniversary of the execution of Charles I), Cromwell's body was exhumed from Westminster Abbey, and was subjected to the ritual of a posthumous execution, as were the remains of Robert Blake, John Bradshaw and Henry Ireton. (The body of Cromwell's daughter was allowed to remain buried in the Abbey.) His disinterred body was hanged in chains at Tyburn, and then thrown into a pit, while his severed head was displayed on a pole outside Westminster Hall until 1685.[23]

January 30, 1667: The Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth ceded Kiev, Smolensk, and left-bank Ukraine to the Tsardom of Russia in the Treaty of Andrusovo. According “to the treaty...arranged with John the Jews, who then lived in the towns and districts that became Russian territory, were permitted to remain "on the side of the Russian czar," under Russian rule, if they did not choose to remain under Polish rule. Jewish wives of Greek Orthodox Russians were permitted to remain with their husbands without being forced to change their religion.[24]

The Governor of New France, the Marquis Duquesne writes a letter to the commander of the French Fort Le Boeuf, thanking him for the receipt of Dinwiddie's summons for the French to leave the Ohio country. "...to inform me about the deputation from the Governor of Virginia, as well as for the care you took to send me the letter which he wrote to you. His claims on the Belle Riviere are sheer imagination, for it belongs to us incontestably. Moreover the King wishes it, and that is enough for us to go forward..." [25]

January 30th, 1780: We sailed again. We were at latitude 31° 49’ north, and the course was N by W. Toward two o’clock we sounded eleven fathoms of water, and at six o’clock in the evening the small anchor was cast at nine fathoms. [28]

January 30, 1781: On this day in 1781, Maryland becomes the 13th and final state to ratify the Articles of Confederation, almost three years after the official deadline given by Congress of March 10, 1778.

The Continental Congress drafted the Article of Confederation in a disjointed process that began in 1776. The same issues that would later dog the Constitutional Convention of 1787 befuddled the Congress during the drafting. Large states wanted votes to be proportional according to population, while small states wanted to continue with the status quo of one vote per state. Northern states wished to count the southern states' slave population when determining the ratio for how much funding each state would provide for Congressional activities, foremost the war. States without western land claims wanted those with claims to yield them to Congress.

In November 1777, Congress put the Articles before the states for ratification. As written, the Articles made the firm promise that "Each state retains its sovereignty." Western claims remained in the hands of the individual states and states' support to Congress was determined based only on their free population. Each state carried only one vote.

Virginia was the only state to ratify the Articles by the 1778 deadline. Most states wished to place conditions on ratification, which Congress refused to accept. Ten further states ratified during the summer of 1778, but small states with big neighbors and no land claims--Delaware, New Jersey and Maryland--still refused. Maryland held out the longest, only ratifying the Articles after Virginia relinquished its claims on land north of the Ohio River to Congress. The Articles finally took effect on March 1, 1781.

The problematic Articles of Confederation remained the law of the land for only eight years before the Constitutional Convention rejected them in favor of a new, more centralized form of federal government. They crafted the current U.S. Constitution, which took effect in 1789, giving the federal government greater authority over the states and creating a bicameral legislature.[29]

“FORT PITT, January 30, 1782.

January 30, 1835

The first assassination attempt on a president occurs when Richard Lawrence fires two shoots at ancestor and President Andrew Jackson (2nd cousin 8x removed), who is unhurt.[32]

On January 30, 1835, what is believed to be the first attempt to kill a sitting President of the United States occurred just outside the United States Capitol Building. When Jackson was leaving the Capitol Building out of the East Portico after the funeral of South Carolina Representative Warren R. Davis, Richard Lawrence, an unemployed and deranged house-painter from England, either burst from a crowd or stepped out from hiding behind a column and aimed a pistol at Jackson which misfired. Lawrence then pulled out a second pistol which also misfired. It has since been postulated that the moisture from the humid weather of the day contributed to the double misfiring. [43] Lawrence was then restrained, with legend saying that Jackson attacked Lawrence with his cane, prompting his aides to restrain him. Others present, including David Crockett, restrained and disarmed Lawrence.

Richard Lawrence gave the doctors several reasons for the shooting. He had recently lost his job painting houses and somehow blamed Jackson. He claimed that with the President dead, "money would be more plenty"—a reference to Jackson’s struggle with the Bank of the United States—and that he "could not rise until the President fell." Finally, he informed his interrogators that he was actually a deposed English King—Richard III, specifically, dead since 1485—and that Jackson was merely his clerk. He was deemed insane, institutionalized, and never punished for his assassination attempt.[33] Lawrence was most likely a mentally unstable individual with no connections to Jackson's political rivals, but Jackson was convinced that Lawrence had been hired by his Whig Party opponents to assassinate him. At the time, Jackson's Democrats and the Whigs were locked in battle over Jackson's attempt to dismantle the Bank of the United States. His vice president, Martin Van Buren, was also wary and thereafter carried two loaded pistols with him when visiting the Senate.

Jackson's suspicions were never proven and Lawrence spent the rest of his life in a mental institution. A century later, Smithsonian Institute researchers conducted a study of Lawrence's derringers, during which both guns discharged properly on the test's first try. It was later determined that the odds of both guns misfiring during the assassination attempt were one in 125,000. [34]

His Excy. Z.B. Vance

Govr. Of N.C.

Sir

I am surprised to hear from one of your late letters[38] that you consider the Department to have interfered irregularly with the appointment of officers to some State Regiments from N. Carolina for the war-I am unconscious to what regiments or appointments you refer and certainly have had no intention of trenching on your perrogatives. One appointment alone that of Lieut Col Moore[39] to a Regiment to be composed, as at the time was directed, of a North Carolina battalion and of some conscripts then at Raleigh, was made by me, as from subsequent information I have, without sufficient care but it was done in supposed deference to your own wish on the representation you had desired the Regiment to be so formed and the particular officer appointed. If in this a mistake has been committed, it will be cheerfully corrected, but I should be pleased to learn first that you had not desired the appointment. You will also gratify me by informing me what regiments you regard as State Regiments to which your powers of appointment extend and on what ground the claim rests. I do not find or the Adj. G office any distinction of the kind made, nor can I learn that a claim of appointment has been appealed by you to any. I have the Honor to be with high consideration & esteem.

Respectfully Yrs

Executive Office

Raleigh N.C.

Dear John:

Your letter of December 7 was not opened until this moment. It with a large pile has been on my table sometime and the pressure on my time caused by the recent advance of the enemy has prevented its being attended to.

I have only time now to say that the Legislature has failed to comply with my recommendations about State troops and it is therefore out of my power to favor you with a position as I should have gladly done. I was very glad to hear from you-hope you got safely through the great battle, and should be pleased to receive news from you often. Hattie and children are well and send love. My regards to everybody. [43]

Truly yours

January 30, 1933

• Adolf Hitler assumes office as Chancellor of Germany at the invitation of President Von Hindenburg. On this day in 1933, President Paul von Hindenburg names Adolf Hitler, leader or fÜhrer of the National Socialist German Workers Party (or Nazi Party), as chancellor of Germany. Hitler is appointed chancellor of Germany after a Reichstag election in which the

•

• Nazis receive approximately 33 percent of the vote.[1][2] [45]

Hitler's emergence as chancellor on January 30, 1933, marked a crucial turning point for Germany and, ultimately, for the world. His plan, embraced by much of the German population, was to do away with politics and make Germany a powerful, unified one-party state. He began immediately, ordering a rapid expansion of the state police, the Gestapo, and putting Hermann Goering in charge of a new security force, composed entirely of Nazis and dedicated to stamping out whatever opposition to his party might arise. From that moment on, Nazi Germany was off and running, and there was little Hindenburg or von Papen—or anyone—could do to stop it.[46]

January 30, 1937:

Werneck Israelit 31011907.jpg (128092 Byte)Article in the magazine "The Israelite" by January 31, 1907: "Frankfurt am Main, January 30 (1907)." A man of rare values, a Talmid Chacham (scholar), in the deepest sense of the word is been snatched us: Eliezer Roos, who is son of well known Secretary of the Pekidim in Amsterdam, Rabbi Jakob Roos - the memory of the righteous is the blessing - at the 11 Schwat blessed the temporal. Born in Amsterdam, was it the Heimgegangenen vergönnt to the feet of the greatest of his time. Rabbi Jakob Ettlingers and Rabbi Israel Hildesheimer for the true students of the wise to mature, and as a living example to the power of the Jewish teaching zeitigende wisdom and character size, Eliezer Roos has proved in a silent and yet richly blessed life. Twenty-eight years he has in a Bavarian rural town in Werneck, had taught in his community not only, but also in the circle of his colleagues a focus on lively intellectual striving, founder and promoter of the Bavarian State Teachers Association, the actual creator of the Jewish Hospital in Würzburg, but especially the father of a Jewish House, seemed to have taken the philanthropy in person in their place. The Unhappiest all unfortunate, the Jewish inmates of the State lunatic asylum in Werneck, know to tell. In the atmosphere of his sons and daughters have grown under the care of a spouse-worthy mother the Heimgegangenen, that understood it in life, to carry his father's ideals. To be near them, the departed moved eight years ago here to Frankfurt, where he ward loved and honored in the like-minded circle of the Israelite religious society as one of the best and most real Torageistes. Now he is been dismissed suddenly after a happy successful operation in terms that healed in his home to return. On his grave, Mr Rabbi Dr. Breuer in poignant words marked the importance of Heimgegangenen son of Torah, as a character, as one from a circle of auserwählten pious (?), which are unfortunately less and less with us. Mr dedicated words of worship and Thanksgiving Rector Falk called the Bavarian country teachers Association. " His soul is bound up in the Covenant of life."[47]

1939: Hitler, in his anniversary speech in Berlin, talked about the event of war, "The result will not be the Bolshevization of the earth, and thus the victory of Jewry, but the annihilation of the Jewish race in Europe." Hitler also spoke in warm terms about its friendship with Poland.[48]

January 30, 1942: In a speech at the Sports Palace in Berlin, Hitler told of his confidence in victory and his hatred for the Jews. "The hour will come when the most evil universal enemy of all time will be finished, at least for a thousand years." By the spring, four labor camps would be converted to death camps for the purpose of extinguishing the Jews; joining Chelmno were Belzec, Treblinka, Sobibor, and Auschwitz.[49]

January 30, 1943: Enterprises’ fighters flew combat air patrol for a cruiser–destroyer group during the Battle of Rennell Island. Despite the destruction of most of the attacking Japanese bombers by Enterprise planes, the heavy cruiser USS Chicago was sunk by aerial torpedoes.[50]

Howard Snell (uncle) was on board the enterprise.

January 30, 1943 (24th of Shevat, 5703): In Letychiv, Ukraine, German Gestapo commences mass shootings of Jews from Letychiv Ghetto. 200 surviving Jews from Letychiv slave labor camp were ordered to undress and were shot with machine-gun into a ravine. Some 7,000 Jews were murdered in Letychiv.[51]

January 30, 1944: 1944: Seven hundred Jews are deported from Milan, Italy, to Auschwitz.[52]

January 30, 1945: Hitler gives his last ever public address; a radio address on the 12th anniversary of his coming to power.[53]

January 30, 1948: Mahatma Gandhi was assassinated by a Hindu extremist. While Gandhi was a figure revered by many, some Jews have their reservations about this proponent of civil disobedience and non-violence no matter what the threat. After Kristallnacht Gandhi wrote, "If the Jewish mind could be prepared for voluntary sacrifice, even the massacre I have imagined by Nazis could be turned into a day of thanksgiving that Jehovah had wrought deliverance of the race even at the hands of a tyrant...the German Jews will score a lasting victory over the German gentiles in the sense that they will have converted the latter to an appreciation of human dignity." Apparently Ghandi lacked any concept of the evil that was Hitler. But even after the war when the total horror was known, Gandhi said that the Holocaust was "the greatest crime of our time, but the Jews should have offered themselves to the butcher's knife. They should have thrown themselves into the sea from the cliffs....It would have aroused the world and the people of Germany."[54]

January 30, 1948: Jack Cornell Hamilton b April 17, 1923 at Sioux City, Ia. d January 30, 1948 at Los Angeles, Ca. md June 8, 1946 at Los Angeles, Ca. Dorothy Stevens. There were no children. [55]

January 30, 1961 JFK telephones his father to remind him to watch his first State

of the Union address on television. Then he and Jackie ride to the Capitol. Evelyn Lincoln

thinks JFK is in a particularly good mood. AQOC

An Italian magazine publishes comments by Alicia Purdom, wife of British actor

Edmund Purdom. She claims that in 1951, before either of them was married, she and JFK had

had an affair. Had Joseph Kennedy not stepped in to end it, they would have been married.

This story is not picked up in the American press. J. Edgar Hoover promplty informs Robert

Kennedy. Allegations reach Hoover that the affair involved a pregnancy and that the Kennedy

family had paid a vast sum of money to hush the matter up. As an FBI agent at headquarters,

Gordon Liddy sees files on JFK. From mid-1961, while on a headquarters assignment that

includes research on politicians, Liddy peruses numerous 5” x 7” cards packed with file

references to JFK’s past and present. “There was a lot,” he recalls. “It grew while I was there, and

kept growing.”

Lyndon Johnson writes a letter to the Secretary of Agriculture supporting Billy Sol

Estes’ practices with respect to his cotton land allotments. Estes in in the middle of a federal fraud

scandal - by building grain warehouses and buying up federal cotton allotments to grow cotton on

submerged lands. Johnson’s letter eventually becomes the impetus for an Agriculture Department

investigation involving both estes and Johnson. (TTC)

NOTE: LBJ will be involved in three major scandals during his Vice Presidency:

1. The Billy Sol Estes affair

2. The TFX Missile Scandal

3. The Bobby Baker scandal.

Each of these scandals, as it surfaces, comes closer to implicating Johnson directly.

These investigations cease immediately after JFK’s assassination, when LBJ becomes

President. [56]

January 30, 1962 Lee Harvey Oswald writes an angry letter to John Connally,

who has been Secretary of the Navy in 1961, betraying considerable anxiety over the change in

status of his military discharge. In defending himself, he asserts that he has “always had the full

sanction of the U.S. Embassy ... and hence the U.S. government” during his stay in the Soviet Union.

He also warns, “I shall employ all means to right this gross mistake or injustice ...” and asks Connally

to “look into this case and take the necessary steps to repair the damage ...” [57]

January 30, 1978: AA ministry of Education official sentenced to execution by firing squad for selling Iranian secrets to the USSR was granted a stay of execution[58]
