From 1979 to 1984, he appeared sporadically with Maple Leaf Wrestling in Ontario, Canada.After turning heel, <mask> formed a new alliance with Baron von Raschke (whom <mask> had had a brief feud with prior), with the duo winning the NWA World Tag Team Championship (Mid-Atlantic version) twice in 1979 and feuding with tag teams such as Flair and Mulligan and Jay Youngblood and Steamboat. The team ended when <mask> turned on von Raschke. <mask> subsequently began teaming with The Masked Superstar (another former foe), winning the NWA World Tag Team Championship (Mid-Atlantic version) again in 1980 and 1981.

As she walked onto the ringside set to claim her prize, she attempted to embrace <mask> with a kiss as her way of thanking him; but <mask> backed away quickly and proceeded to berate her violently. Rufus R<mask> then came to the lady's rescue, and was attacked by <mask>.<mask> then shoved the terrified young lady between himself and Rufus to block Rufus' defensive attack. This angle led to a brief feud between <mask> and Rufus R<mask>. In the mid-1980s, <mask> began a lengthy (and perhaps his most famous) feud with Jimmy Valiant. The feud culminated in a hair versus hair match in November 1986 that was won by Valiant. <mask> then began wearing a cowboy hat until his hair grew back to conceal his baldness. In 1988, The Powers of Pain began feuding with The Road Warriors, with <mask> claiming that The Powers of Pain were stronger than their opponents. In a memorable angle that aired on NWA World Championship Wrestling, The Powers of Pain faced The Road Warriors in a weightlifting contest with $50,000 on the line.The contest ended abruptly when Ivan Koloff blinded Road Warrior Animal using chalk dust, enabling The Powers of Pain to beat down The Road Warriors. <mask> left Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling - which had in the prior year been renamed World Championship Wrestling - in 1989.

<mask> (1 May 1886 – 5 April 1963) was an English mountaineer, ornithologist and photographer, and a member of the 1924 British Mount Everest expedition. Early life
<mask> was born in Darlington in 1886, the second son of <mask> and <mask>. His mother's maiden name was <mask>. <mask>'s father, a bank manager in Darlington, died when <mask> was four years old. Until the age of eight <mask> was educated at Mr Bowman's Preparatory School; he then attended Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School, Darlington, where his brother John was already a pupil. From 1899 to 1903 he attended the North Eastern County School (now called Barnard Castle School) at Barnard Castle, where he was a boarder. He left school at the age of sixteen.Career
For some years after leaving school <mask> worked in an architect's office in Darlington, then from 1903 to 1914 he was busy with field research, writing books and articles, photography and giving lectures. In 1914, having established himself as a leading ornithologist, he returned to the North Eastern County School as a schoolmaster, teaching natural history. A Fellow of the Zoological Society of London, in 1927 he was elected a member of the Royal Geographical Society. He retired in 1949, and moved to Cotherstone. In 1962 he was disabled by a stroke and spent his last year in a nursing home, where he died on 5 April 1963. His ashes were scattered from the top of Shepherd's Crag, Borrowdale. Ornithology
From 1903 to 1914 <mask> devoted much time to his passion for ornithology.Amongst his expeditions, always undertaken with a camera in hand, were trips to the coast in the north-east of England, where he developed a technique for photographing gannets that involved abseiling down cliffs with the rope attached to a stake that was driven into the ground at the top of the cliff. <mask> at this time used a cumbersome and heavy Sanderson half-plate field camera. Rock climbing and mountaineering

 re-ascents of the sea-cliffs on the north-east coast, once he had captured images of birds on photographic plates, involved much use of the hands. In the Lakes he used Wasdale Head as a base and commenced a friendship with Howard Somervell. Together they made ascents of the classic Lakeland climbs in the period before the First World War. After the war, <mask> and Somervell started climbing in the Alps, initially under the supervision of the 60-year-old Godfrey Solly in Chamonix, and subsequently on their own and without guides. In 1924, <mask>, along with Somervell (who had already been on the 1922 British Mount Everest Expedition), was chosen by the Mount Everest Committee to be a member of the ill-fated 1924 British Mount Everest expedition, on which Mallory and Irvine were killed.<mask> suffered from dysentery and sciatica and never made it high on the mountain. In his 2012 book Into the Silence, Wade Davis argues that <mask> – whom he considered an ill-advised selection for the expedition – prevented the most qualified and promising English climber of the period, Richard Graham, from joining. Graham had been a conscientious objector during the First World War, which became the basis of a whispering campaign by <mask>, even though <mask> had not fought himself. By contrast, Captain John Noel wrote:
 It was during this expedition that <mask> took his highly regarded photographs of Tibet. <mask> made numerous expeditions to other ranges in the world, including the Tatra Mountains of Czechoslovakia, Chile, the Drakensberg, the Lofoten islands and Spitsbergen. He is most associated with the High Atlas mountains of Morocco, which he visited on five separate occasions. His first visit was in 1927, together with G. Thompson, during which he made the first British ascents of many peaks in the Toubkal region.<mask>'s name is familiar to anyone who climbs in the Borrowdale valley in the Lake District. He made the first ascent, often solo, of numerous classic climbs in the valley,

 including "Little Chamonix" and "Corvus", and wrote the third edition of the Fell & Rock Climbing Club guidebook to the valley, published in 1953. The 1990 guide to the valley notes that <mask>, "with the Goldsborough Club of Barnard Castle School, surveyed every sizable crag in the valley, working out well over a hundred routes with a wide range of difficulty". <mask> was responsible for developing the most popular crag in the valley, Shepherd's Crag, which lies just above the main road that runs beside Derwentwater. In an article in The Journal of the Fell & Rock Climbing Club (1946), <mask> explained the attraction of climbing in Borrowdale, comparing the experience with that found on the more traditional higher crags of the Lakes. Bentley Beetham Trust
A collection of <mask>'s photographs – those he took in Tibet on the 1924 expedition, considered "an important historical record of Tibetan culture", as well as photographs of Barnard Castle, Teesdale, the Alps, the Atlas and Tatra mountains – is held in Palace Green Library next to Durham Cathedral.

His Master of Divinity and Doctor of Philosophy degrees in systematic and historical theology were conferred by the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.Career
In addition to his presidency at SBTS, <mask> was the host of The Albert Mohler Program, a nationwide radio show "devoted to engaging contemporary culture with Christian beliefs."

In 2018, <mask> labeled turmoil in the Southern Baptist Convention as the SBC's "own horrifying #MeToo moment" and said it stemmed from "an unorganized conspiracy of silence" about sexual misconduct and abuse. He wrote that the SBC's "issues are far deeper and wider" than the controversy surrounding Paige Patterson, who’d been moved that day from president to president emeritus of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. In early 2019, explosive newspaper reports of sexual abuse by church leaders and volunteers shook the Southern Baptist Convention, and <mask> called for independent third-party investigations. Just days after the Houston Chronicle’s 2019 report of allegations of hundreds of sexual abuse cases (some of which were not reported to law enforcement), <mask> apologized in an interview with the newspaper for supporting a religious leader who was accused of helping conceal sexual abuses at his former church.Some have lauded <mask>, while others have questioned the timing and motivations of these comments.

<mask> joined the staff of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky, in 1983 as Coordinator of Foundation Support. In 1987, he became Director of Capital Funding, a post he held until 1989. From 1983 to 1989, while still a student, he had served as assistant to then-President Roy Honeycutt. In February 1993, <mask> was appointed the ninth President of the seminary by the institution's board of trustees to succeed Honeycutt. Theology and other faiths
In 2008, <mask> declined to sign An Evangelical Manifesto, publishing a lengthy explanation for his decision.<mask> is an Evangelical and an exclusivist, which means that he believes Jesus is the only way through which an individual can attain salvation or have a relationship with God the Father. As a Calvinist, <mask> believes that human salvation is a free gift from God which cannot be earned by human action or will and is only given to the elect. He has publicly advanced this position with respect to Judaism, Islam, and Catholicism. He recently stated that "any belief system, any world view, whether it's Zen Buddhism or Hinduism or dialectical materialism for that matter, Marxism, that keeps persons captive and keeps them from coming to faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, yes, is a demonstration of Satanic power." He believes Muslims are motivated by demonic power and in the months after the September 11, 2001 attacks, <mask> characterized Islamic views of Jesus as false and destructive:

 Messianic Jew, debated this subject as well as <mask>'s insistence that salvation lies exclusively in the personal acceptance of Christ before the afterlife with Donahue, a Catholic, and Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, an Orthodox Jew.On April 15, 2003, <mask> was interviewed by Time on the subject of evangelizing Iraqi Muslims in the form of Christian aid groups. On May 5, 2003, <mask> appeared on NPR's Fresh Air with Terry Gross to discuss the issue of evangelization of the Iraqis. At issue was whether the coupling of evangelizing with basic human aid relief might be perceived as aggressive or coercive by the Iraqi people, and whether such a perception, if widespread, might place other relief workers in jeopardy. <mask> argued that biblical, evangelical Christianity is not uniquely American, but exists as a movement throughout the world, so that Christian witnessing is not, in his view, to be interpreted as a move on the part of any single nation against the religion of another. At the same time, however, <mask> acknowledged the need for "sensitivity," and distanced himself from the idea that religion coerced. When pressed, <mask> expressed support for the idea of religious freedom as a theoretical matter of law. On December 18, 2004, <mask> debated retired Episcopal bishop John Shelby Spong on Faith Under Fire, a program hosted by Lee Strobel and appearing on PAX, a Christian television network.The subject was the historicity and truthfulness of the Bible.

 truth and reverse the Reformation." <mask> has denounced Pope Francis for his perceived left-leaning leadership. <mask> stated that he was one of the original signatories to the Manhattan Declaration because it is a limited ecumenical statement of Christian conviction on the topics of abortion, euthanasia and gay marriage, and not a wide-ranging theological document that subverts confessional integrity. He emphasized that he signed the document in spite of his deep theological disagreements with the Catholic Church. Deliberate childlessness
<mask> spoke in June 2004, about married adults who choose not to have children. <mask> has also been critical of birth control methods that prevent implantation of the fertilized egg, which he believes "involve nothing less than an early abortion."He has attempted to bring about a new reflection on the topic within evangelical opinion.

According to <mask>, yoga practice is not consistent with Christianity. After voicing his stance on the topic, <mask> stated that he was 'surprised by the depth of the commitment to yoga found on the part of many who identify as Christians'. Libertarianism
<mask> has argued that libertarianism is idolatrous, and as a comprehensive world view or fundamental guiding principle for human life, is inconsistent with Christian ideals. He is a proponent of personal liberty, but believes such liberties can run into problems when applied in the political sphere.The more limited economic libertarianism, on the other hand, can be consistent with the "comprehensive world view that Christianity puts

In the late 1970s and early 1980s, <mask> created a public art project of murals consisting of photos of ordinary people sitting on bus benches. The photographs were placed on the sides of buses and the backs of bus benches in Los Angeles, San Diego, and Oakland, California in the US, and Arles, France.

title: Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey

texts:
<mask>, Earl of Surrey  (1516/1517 – 19 January 1547), KG, was an English nobleman, politician and poet. He was one of the founders of English Renaissance poetry and was the last known person executed at the instance of King <mask>. He was a first cousin of both Queen Anne Boleyn and Queen Catherine Howard, second and fifth wives of King <mask>. His name is usually associated in literature with that of the poet Sir Thomas Wyatt. He was the son of Thomas Howard, Earl of Surrey, and when his father became Duke of Norfolk (1524) the son adopted the courtesy title of Earl of Surrey. Owing largely to the powerful position of his father, Howard took a prominent part in the court life of the time, and served as  a soldier both in France and Scotland. He was a man of reckless temper, which involved him in many quarrels, and finally brought upon him the wrath of the ageing and embittered <mask>.He was arrested, tried for treason and  beheaded on Tower Hill. Origins
He was born in Hunsdon, Hertfordshire, the eldest son of Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of Norfolk, by his second wife Elizabeth Stafford, a daughter of Edward Stafford, 3rd Duke of Buckingham. He was thus descended from King Edward I on his father's side and from King Edward III on his mother's side. Career
He was brought-up at Windsor Castle with <mask>oy, 1st Duke of Richmond and Somerset, the illegitimate son of King <mask>. He became a close friend, and later a brother-in-law, of Fitzroy following the marriage of his sister to him. Like his father and grandfather, he was a soldier, serving in <mask>'s French wars as Lieutenant General of the King on Sea and Land. He was repeatedly imprisoned for rash behaviour: on one

 occasion for striking a courtier and on another for wandering through the streets of London breaking the windows of houses whose occupants were asleep.He assumed the courtesy title  Earl of Surrey in 1524 when his grandfather died and his father became Duke of Norfolk. In 1532 he accompanied  Anne Boleyn (his first cousin), King <mask>, and the Duke of Richmond to France, staying there for more than a year as a member of the entourage of King Francis I of France. 1536 was a notable year for Howard:  his first son was born, namely  Thomas Howard (later 4th Duke of Norfolk), Anne Boleyn was executed on charges of adultery and treason, and the Duke of Richmond died at the age of 17 and was buried at Thetford Abbey, one of the Howard seats. In 1536 Howard also served with his father in the suppression of the Pilgrimage of Grace, a rebellion against the Dissolution of the Monasteries. Marriage and progeny

He married Frances de Vere, a daughter of John de Vere, 15th Earl of Oxford, (by his wife Elizabeth Trussell) by whom he had two sons and three daughters:
 Thomas Howard, 4th Duke of Norfolk (10 March 1536 – 2 June 1572), who married three times: (1) Mary FitzAlan (2) Margaret Audley (3) Elizabeth Leyburne. <mask>, 1st Earl of Northampton, who died unmarried. Jane Howard, who married Charles Neville, 6th Earl of Westmorland.Margaret Howard, who married <mask>, 9th Baron Scrope of Bolton. Katherine Howard, who married <mask>, 7th Baron Berkeley. Downfall

The Howards had little regard for the "new men" who had risen to power at court, such as Thomas Cromwell and the Seymours. Howard was less circumspect than his father in concealing his disdain. The Howards had many enemies

texts: at court. Howard himself branded Cromwell a 'foul churl' and William Paget a 'mean creature' as well as arguing that 'These new erected men would by their wills leave no nobleman on life!' <mask>, consumed by paranoia and increasing illness, became convinced that Howard had planned to usurp the crown from his son the future King Edward VI.Howard suggested that his sister Mary FitzRoy, Duchess of Richmond and Somerset (widow of <mask>'s illegitimate son <mask>) should seduce the aged King, her father-in-law, and become his mistress, to "wield as much influence on him as Madame d'Etampes doth about the French King". The Duchess, outraged, said she would "cut her own throat" rather than "consent to such villainy". She and her brother fell out, and she later laid testimony against Howard that helped lead to his trial and execution for treason. The matter came to a head when Howard quartered the attributed arms of King Edward the Confessor. John Barlow had once called Howard "the most foolish proud boy that is in England" and, although the arms of Howard's ancestor Thomas Mowbray, 1st Duke of Norfolk, show that he was entitled to bear Edward the Confessor's arms, doing so was an act of pride. In consequence, the King ordered Howard's imprisonment and that of his father, sentencing them to death on 13 January 1547. Howard was beheaded on 19 January 1547 on a charge of treasonably quartering the royal arms.His father escaped execution as the king died the day before that appointed for the beheading, but he remained imprisoned. Howard's son Thomas Howard, became heir to the Dukedom of Norfolk in place of his father, which title he inherited on the 3rd Duke's death in 1554.

 Burial

He was buried in Framlingham Church in Suffolk, where survives his spectacular painted alabaster tomb. Literary activity and legacy
He and his friend Sir Thomas Wyatt were the first English poets to write in the sonnet form that Shakespeare later used, and Howard was the first English poet to publish blank verse (unrhymed iambic pentameter) in his translation of the second and fourth books of Virgil's Aeneid. Together, Wyatt and Howard, due to their excellent translations of Petrarch's sonnets, are known as "Fathers of the English Sonnet". While Wyatt introduced the sonnet into English, it was Howard who gave them the rhyming meter and the division into quatrains that now characterises the sonnets variously named English, Elizabethan, or Shakespearean sonnets. In popular culture
<mask>, Earl of Surrey was portrayed by the actor David O'Hara in The Tudors, a television series which ran from 2007 to 2010.References

title: Éric Gagné

texts:
<mask> (; born January 7, 1976) is a Canadian former professional baseball pitcher. After signing with the Los Angeles Dodgers of Major League Baseball (MLB) as a free agent in 1995, Gagné began his career as a starting pitcher. After he struggled in that role, the Dodgers converted Gagné from a starter to a reliever, where for three years (2002–2004) he was statistically the most outstanding closer in the game, winning the Cy Young Award in 2003. During that period, he set a major league record by converting 84 consecutive save opportunities. The phrase "Game Over" was heavily used by the Dodgers and the media in connection with his appearances to finish close games. Gagné played sparingly in 2005 and 2006 due to injury, undergoing elbow surgery in 2005 and back surgery in 2006. The Dodgers did not re-sign him after 2006, and Gagné started the 2007 season with the Texas Rangers, where he briefly enjoyed success again as a closer.However, he was less successful in stints with the Boston Red Sox and Milwaukee Brewers, and was finally released after the 2008 season. In December 2007, days after signing a contract for 2008 with the Milwaukee Brewers, he was linked to baseball's steroids scandal after he was named in the Mitchell Report. Early life and education
Gagné comes from a Québécois family and grew up in the town of Mascouche, near Montreal. As a child, he played baseball and ice hockey at Montreal's Polyvalente Édouard-Montpetit High School, the same high school that Russell Martin attended. His Little League teams were coached by his father, Richard. He eventually became a star with Canada's Junior World Championship teams. He was a fan of the Montreal Expos and Montreal Canadiens throughout his childhood.Playing career

 disabled list to start the season to let him recover from his injuries. Gagné started to make his recovery by tossing in three minor league games, two of them on consecutive days, allowing a home run and having one loss. In his last minor league game, Gagné retired all three of the batters he faced, and he was activated on April 13. In his first week back, Gagné pitched three innings, earning one save. But in the middle of his second save situation, Gagné left the game after complaining of leg pain. He said that it would take about a week to recover from the injury, but the Rangers, not taking the risk, placed Gagné on the disabled list with a hip injury.He was reactivated on May 8 and returned to the closer role. During his time with Texas, he was 2–0 with 16 saves and an ERA of 2.16; opposing hitters batted only .192 against him. Boston Red Sox

On July 31, 2007, Gagné was traded to the Boston Red Sox for pitcher Kason Gabbard and minor league outfielders David Murphy and Engel Beltré. Gagné was expected to serve as a setup man for closer Jonathan Papelbon. Theo Epstein was quoted as saying that "I think the bullpen is already a strength of the club, but acquiring a pitcher the caliber of <mask> Gagné only makes it stronger and helps give us what we hope will be a truly dominant bullpen for the remainder of the year." However, Gagné struggled in his new role with the Red Sox. In his first 15 appearances, Gagné allowed 14 earned runs in 14 innings (a 9.00 ERA) with three blown saves and an opponent batting average of over .350.Gagné seemed to improve down the stretch and was eventually added to the playoff roster. In the playoffs, he was most often used in games in which the Red Sox were winning by a wide margin, including his only World Series appearance in which he pitched a perfect ninth inning in a 13–1 Game 1 victory. The only exception to this was his appearance in Game 2 of the American League

 to rack up strikeouts at a very high rate. In his Cy Young-winning season of 2003, he had 100 more strikeouts (137) than hits he allowed (37). This produced a strikeout-to-hit ratio of 3.7, a single-season record for relief pitchers with 50 innings.He also has the highest percentage of swinging strikes as a percent of his total pitches (18.5%) among all pitchers since the 2002 season. He also owns the highest percentage of swinging strikes on pitches inside the strike zone. Gagné exhibited an emotional presence on the mound: "I like to show my emotion, be real aggressive and give everything I've got for one half inning." Personal life

Gagné and his ex-wife Valerie (née Hervieux) have four children—two daughters and two sons. His father's cousin, <mask>, played several seasons in the NHL. Career highlights

title: Som Ranchan

texts:
<mask> (1 March 1932 – 2 August 2014) was an Indian poet writing in English, a scholar, a literary critic, a revisionist of Indian culture, literary and secular personalities, and a novelist born in Lahore Cantt (now in Pakistan). He has often been described as a "Poet of Many Voices" with the note of mythical/mystical themes noticeable in his writings. His psycho-analytical studies have the influence of the depth psychology of Carl Jung, Alfred Adler and Sigmund Freud; the mythological studies of Joseph Campbell; the spiritual endeavors of Aurobindo, Otto Rank, Rudolfe, Vedanta and Tantra, and the philosophical notions that of Schopenhauer. Background

<mask> was born in Lahore, British India. His father was an employee of the Accountant General's Office in Lahore which was shifted to Shimla (Himachal Pradesh) following the India-Pakistan partition in 1947. He had to migrate to India along with his mother, father, three brothers and a sister. This displacement ruined the family fortunes; the siblings had misgivings about career and education which made them anxious and restless.One of the brothers, <mask>, qualified in Civil Services and retired as an Additional Chief Secretary, Gujarat. Ranchan absented from college and worked in Delhi picking up some odd jobs like insurance agent, marketing and reporting for an English magazine, Delhi Mirror (although a very short-lived magazine). He himself describes the year 1951–1954 as the "Struggle Period" of his life. During the struggling years, <mask> completed his MA (Eng) as a private candidate. If one has to

 know more about Ranchan one needs to read and understand his works better, as he proclaims: "All my poetry is autobiographical" (Journal of Indian Writing in English, 1980). The author however, feels that the above quote doesn't truly represent him as it is decontexualized. The critical consensus is that <mask>'s poetry is many-layered, it is personal, experiential of life and times and thus truly archetypal.The consensus further is that he is an epic poet and especially an inventor of dialogue epics on secular and spiritual Wisdom Figures. Career in teaching

In 1954, <mask> started teaching and established himself as a teacher. One after the other, Ranchan taught in four different colleges (including Vaish College, Bhiwani, Hisar and Malerkotla, Erstwhile Princely State, (PEPSU). Finally, he taught in Govt. Mahindra College, Patiala, from which he went to the United States of America on a Fulbright Fellowship (1960–1964). His first four years' stay in the USA (as a fellow for three years and an instructor for a year at California State University, Northridge) resulted in a prose book sojourn in America. Later on, at California State University, Fullerton, he gave courses in American and English literature in addition to Group Process, Dream Work, Basic Principles of Jungian Psychology and team-taught with a certified Jungian psychologist, Pan Coucoulis.He created many new courses in literature and interdisciplinary studies such as "Search for Self: East and West", "Yoga", "Graduate Seminar in Walt Whitman", "Senior Seminar in J. D. Salinger", and "Seminar

 of Vedanta and Tantra and Western depth psychology and religious figures. More than anything, Ranchan perceives and reveals the myth that operates in  everyone's lives. His experience of teaching diverse courses, exposure to American people from all walks of life, his pastoral counselling for the Church of Antioch, Order of Missionary Ministers, become the tap root of his creativity and inter-disciplinary ranging in subjects as diverse as political theory, folklore, myth, psychology, therapy etc.Criticism
<mask> <mask> is known for his elaborate style; mythical, mystical allusions, burrowing the deep layers of culture and personalities. His voice in his poetry is neither of an extrovert or an introvert but consists of the polyphonic echoes, predominantly of a centrovert. Ranchan claims that obscure poetry discourages the "common reader" but is essential to sustain a variety of "multi-culturism, mythical and archetypal reverberations and metaphysical experiences" (Kirpal Singh). Orrington Ramsay, Professor of English, California State University (USA), opines: "<mask> P. Ranchan's lyrical tongue is the ultimate universal love of earth, of man, and of the gods…he incorporates the lush cadences of our own English verse and the mystic vision of India" ("Back Cover" Som P. Ranchan: A Poet of Many Voices, 1994). For the readers of Ranchan, a collection of papers by the most prominent scholars of India, Ved Sharma's A Profile in Creativity (1992) is an ever-illuminating endeavor.

He [the beggar] as the narrator, is quite intelligent and far from being a pathetic, stinking presence."Citing some rhetorical questions, Kirpal Singh opines: "Is Ranchan's poetry derivative or idiosyncratically original? Does it belong to any tradition?" Besides these, there is a long list of subsequent criticism and interviews:

<mask>  <mask> (November 1830 – May 23, 1875), better known as "Gassy Jack", was a bar-owner in British Columbia. The Gastown neighbourhood of Vancouver, British Columbia takes its name from him. History

<mask> was born in  Hull, England. Growing up in Hull, a major seaport, <mask> and his brothers Tom and Richard learned to sail. Tom and Richard apprenticed on British ships, but Jack did not receive that opportunity. However, this meant he could switch to sailing on U.S. ships. When the California Gold Rush hit, ships were in demand to transport cargo and people from New York to San Francisco.In 1850, this voyage around Cape Horn took 140–160 days. Deighton signed up to work a new clipper Invincible that could sail 400 miles a day and made the trip in only 115 days. The next journey was to Hong Kong. Deighton was 21 years old and Third Officer. Next, Deighton visited family at home in England and then returned to the U.S., never returning to England again. Next, Deighton worked a gold claim in California, along with many others, until February 1858 when there was news of gold further north in a British territory known as New Caledonia. The Fraser Canyon Gold Rush had begun and Deighton sailed north along with thousands of others.The harsh winter took its toll on the prospectors but Deighton stayed for 5 years. He found no gold, though others did. New Caledonia was now the Colony of British Columbia. Traffic on the Fraser River was increasing as more miners arrived, but so far only American steamers were able to travel beyond Langley. Local boats

texts: Deighton bought a nearby lot for $135 at the south-west corner of Carrall and Water Streets, where he built Deighton House. Deighton was first married to a Squamish woman, whose name is currently unknown. Before her death around 1870, her niece, Quahail-ya, came to care for her.After her death, Deighton married Quahail-ya who was also known by the name <mask>. According to the 1921 Canadian Census she was born in 1855 or 1856 but other sources suggest other dates. In 1940, she told Vancouver archivist Major J.S. Matthews that she was "about 12" when she married Deighton in 1870. Matthews reported that "it was difficult to converse." In 1946, after a portrait of her by Vancouver artist Mildred Valley Thornton was featured in the Vancouver Sun, she was described in an article as being "well over 90 years old." Newspaper stories on her death in 1948 noted she was "reputed to be over 100 years of age" and that she "claimed to be between 102 and 110 years of age."A son, Richard Mason <mask>, was born to <mask> and his wife in December 1871; the baby was baptized in 1872. Richard was nicknamed the "Earl of Granville" and was a popular figure in Gastown. (In her 1940 interview with Major Matthews, Madeline said the baby lived about two years and was buried at Brockton Point, but in fact he outlived his father.) Deighton's brother Tom and his wife took over the business in 1873 and Deighton returned to working the steamship that plied the Fraser River, this time as a captain of the steamer Onward. However, after a family quarrel a few months later, he

Deighton's will left everything to his four-year-old son, but Richard died in November 1875 before the will was probated. It is not known who inherited the $304, but Quahail-ya/Madeline was reimbursed for three months of childcare and the expenses of her son's funeral.She returned to the North Shore and married Billy Williams, who died in 1897. She died August 10, 1948. Legacy
