type: paraphrased

texts: <mask> was a Polish agent of the British Special Operations Executive during the Second World War. She was celebrated for her intelligence and irregular-warfare missions in Poland and France. The journalist called her the "bravest of the brave" after he described himself as one of the few people still alive who had known her. She was described as "very brave, very attractive, but a solitary and a law unto herself." She was a British agent before the SOE was founded. She was the first female agent of the British to serve in the field and the longest-serving of all Britain's wartime women agents. The organisation's decision to recruit more women as agents in Nazi-occupied countries was influenced by her resourcefulness and success.She legally changed her name to Christine Granville in December 1946 after becoming a British subject. The release of SOE agents Francis Cammaerts and Xan Fielding from a German prison hours before they were to be executed was the most famous exploit by <mask>. She met the Gestapo commander in Digne-les-Bains, France, and told him she was a British agent, and then bribed him to release the SOE agents. In the last episode of Wish Me Luck, there is a fictionalized event. Britain's "most glamorous spy" is often referred to as <mask>. She was stabbed to death in London in 1952 by a man she was in love with. Krystyna <mask> was the daughter of a wealthy Jewish family and Count Jerzy <mask>, a Roman Catholic.Jerzy <mask> used his wife's money to pay his debts after marrying her in December 1899. Fryderyk <mask>, prison reformer, and Wodzimierz Krzyanowski, United States Union general were notable relations. A cousin from the Lww side of the family married a relative of the Hungarian regent. Andrew was the first child to take after the mother's side of the family. <mask>, their second child, took after her father and his liking for riding horses, which she sat astride rather than side-saddle as was usual for women. She became an expert skier during her visits to Zakopane. The father and daughter had a good relationship from the beginning.At the family stables <mask> met Andrzej Kowerski, whose father brought him over to play with Krystyna while he and her father discussed agricultural matters. The family had to give up their country estate and move to Warsaw in the 1920s because of financial problems. Count Jerzy died when Krystyna was 22. There was barely enough money to support the widow of the Goldfeder financial empire. Krystyna didn't want to be a burden to her mother so she quit her job at the car dealership. She was thought to have died of Tuberculosis because of the shadows on her chest x-rays. She took her doctors' advice to lead an open-air life after receiving compensation from her employer's insurance company.She spent a lot of time hiking and skiing in the mountains. <mask> was a runner up in the Miss Poland beauty contest in 1930. On April 21, 1930, <mask> married a young businessman at the Spiritual Seminary Church in Warsaw. They ended their marriage after they proved incompatible. The young man's mother refused to consider the penniless divorcée as a potential daughter-in-law when they had a love affair. On a Zakopane ski slope, Krystyna lost control and was saved by a giant man who stepped into her path and stopped her descent. Her rescuer was Jerzy Giycki, who was from a wealthy family in Kamieniec Podolski.He ran away from home at the age of fourteen and worked as a cowboy and gold prospector in the United States. He traveled the world in search of material for his books and articles. He wanted to return to Africa one day. On November 2, 1938, <mask> and Giycki were married. When Germany invaded Poland in September 1939, he served as Poland's consul general in Ethiopia. Giycki would never believe that I could ever leave him for good. After the outbreak of World War II, the couple sailed for London, where <mask> sought to offer her services in the fight against the common enemy.The British authorities didn't show much interest but were eventually convinced by her acquaintances who introduced her to theSIS. The first time she was mentioned was in December 1939. She was described as a "flaming Polish patriot, expert skier, and great adventuress." Hungary and Poland From London <mask>, a British agent, traveled to Hungary in December of 1939. Hungary was leaning toward Nazi Germany even though it was not yet a participant in World War II. Her cover story was that she was a journalist. She persuaded Jan Marusarz, brother of Nordic skier Stanisaw Marusarz, to escort her into Poland.She tried to get her mother to leave Poland. She was determined to stay in Warsaw and teach French to small children. In January 1942, Stefania was arrested by the Germans as a Jew and disappeared into Warsaw's Pawiak prison. The prison was designed in the mid-19th century by Fryderyk <mask>, a prison reformer and Frédéric Chopin's father. During her first visit back to Poland in February 1940, an incident illustrates the dangers she faced while working in her homeland. She was hailed by a woman at a Warsaw cafe. Krystyna <mask>!What are you doing? You went abroad, we heard! The lady said that she would have sworn she was <mask> <mask> if she had known that her name was <mask>. After the woman left, <mask> tarried a while before leaving the cafe. The British nom de guerre "Andrew Kennedy" was used by Andrzej Kowerski, who later became a Polish army officer. Before the war at Zakopane, <mask> met him for the second time as a child. After losing part of his leg in a hunting accident, Kowerski was able to return to military service.The Polish couriers brought intelligence reports from Warsaw to Hungary. The Polish anti-tank rifle, model 35, with the stock and barrel sawn off, was smuggled out by Kowerski's cousin. She hid it in her apartment. After the outbreak of war, the designs and specifications were destroyed and there was no time for reverse engineering. The Germans and Italians used captured stocks of the rifle. At the request of MI6, she and Kowerski organised all the rail, road and river traffic on the borders with Romania and Germany. She provided intelligence on oil transports to Germany from the Ploiesti oilfields.Between Poland and Hungary, <mask> traveled back and forth. In January 1941 she and Kowerski were arrested by the Hungarian police and imprisoned and questioned by the Gestapo. A doctor diagnosed her with terminal Tuberculosis after she feigned symptoms by biting her tongue. After the Germans released them, the couple was followed by the police and decided to flee Hungary, a German ally. A car journey was undertaken by the British Ambassador in Hungary and his wife. British passports were issued to them. She used a different name for both Kowerski and <mask> the rest of her life.She shaved seven years off her age. Her birth date was 1915 according to her passport. A driver for the British Embassy smuggled <mask> out of Hungary into Yugoslavia in the trunk of a car. A.k.a. Kowerski. Kennedy drove his car across the border. During their time in Belgrade, the couple drank champagne in nightclubs and belly-dancing bars. In late February, Kowerski and <mask> continued their journey to Bulgaria.The best hotel inSofia was full of Nazis. The British Legation was visited by <mask> and Kowerski. The couple gave the rolls of microfilm that they had received from the "Musketeers". There were photos of a German military build up near the border with the Soviet Union contained in the microfilm. The Prime Minister of Britain, who could not believe it, was persuaded by information from other sources that the intelligence of <mask> and Kowerski was accurate. The Soviet Union was invaded by the Germans in 1941. Kowerski and <mask> were on their way to Turkey.In Istanbul, the couple met with exiled Poles and <mask> tried to make sure the routes from Istanbul to Poland remained functional. Jerzy Giycki met them in Istanbul on 17 March 1941. Giycki was persuaded to go to Hungary to take over Skarbek's previous role as the contact point for the British with the Polish resistance after the husband met Kowerski. The couple's next destinations were Syria and Lebanon, which were under the control of France. They continued their journey after obtaining visas from Vichy officials. They arrived in Cairo, Egypt, in May 1941. They drove blithely across hundreds of miles of Nazi-sympathizing territory, often carrying incriminating letters and sometimes microfilm, just weeks or days ahead of the Nazi advance.Kowerski and <mask> were under suspicion because of their contacts with the Musketeers after they arrived at the SOE offices in Cairo. The ease with which she obtained transit visas through Syria and Lebanon was a source of suspicion. Some Polish intelligence officers believed that only German spies could have obtained the visas. There were suspicions about Kowerski. In June 1941, General Colin Gubbinsto wrote a letter to the Polish Commander-in-Chief and the Prime Minister of Poland. Kowerski was able to resume intelligence work after clearing up any misunderstandings with General Kopaski. Jerzy Giycki quit his job as a British intelligence agent when he was told that <mask> and Kowerski's services were being discontinued.Giycki left for London after her husband told her that she loved Kowerski. On August 1, 1946, the couple were officially divorced at the Polish consulate in Berlin. After the dismissal of <mask> and Kowerski, Germany began its invasion of the Soviet Union, which was predicted by the intelligence the couple had passed along to the British from the Musketeers. A number of other sources, including Ultra, provided advance information about the operation. During the remainder of 1941, 1942, and 1943, <mask> was given several small tasks, such as intelligence gathering in Syria and Cairo, and passing along information to the British on Polish intelligence and resistance agencies. She turned down office work because she wanted dangerous and difficult work. She and Kowerski were disliked by the Polish government-in-exile because they worked for Britain.The First Aid Nursing Yeomanry (FANY), an all-woman charity organization with military-style uniforms, was used as a cover for many women in the SOE. Patrick Howarth said that the most useful thing he did in World War II was to bring Christine back. She named her daughter after her because she was so impressed by <mask>. She was given SOE training despite her experience in covert work. She loved parachuting despite being a less than proficient student at wireless transmitting and firearms. The original plan to parachute <mask> into Hungary was called off because it was deemed a little short of homicide. The Polish government-in-exile had suspicions about her and prevented her from returning to Poland.SOE decided to take her into southern France. She took a course to improve her English. She moved to Algeria in preparation for a mission to France, but she was not immediately dispatched because she was too flamboyant to work undercover. The SOE had branches in France. Though most of the women in France answered to F Section in London, <mask>'s mission was launched from Algiers, the base of AMF Section. The AMF Section was set up in the wake of the Allied landings in North Africa, with staff from London and Cairo. It was simpler and safer to run the resupply operations from Allied North Africa than from London, and the South of France was to be liberated by separate Allied landings there.With the two invasions in Normandy and southern France in summer 1944, these distinctions became irrelevant, and almost all the SOE Sections in France were united with the Maquis into the Forces Francaises de l'Interieur. The EU/P Section, which was formed by Poles in France and remained part of the trans- European Polish Resistance movement, was the only exception. Christine Granville parachuted into

texts: France on the night of 6/7 July 1944. She was a member of the Jockey network headed by Francis Cammaerts. The job of Cammaerts and his team was to organize the French resistance fighters, the maquis, in southeastern France to weaken the German occupiers before the Allied invasion of southern France. Cecily Lefort had been captured by the Germans and would be executed. She was tasked with subverting the Polish conscripts in the German army who were stationed along the Franco-Italian border.The Vercors Plateau. The hamlet of Saint-Julien-en-Vercors is on the Vercors Plateau. The local maquis were supplied with arms and supplies by British major Longe in the midst of a large operation. She was out every night when the moon was bright, organizing a reception committee to collect canisters dropped by Allied airplanes. The largest single-day airdrop to the maquis during World War II took place on the morning of 14 July. A full-scale rebellion against the German occupiers broke out after a speech from the head of the provisional government, Charles de Gaulle. German troops quickly crushed the rebellion.The new base at Seyne-les-Alpes was set up after the escape of Cammaerts and Skarbek. In the Alps. She embarked on a journey of three weeks, mostly by foot, through the Alps after the flight from Vercors. She was carrying food and hand grenades. She made contact with two prominent leaders of the French Resistance, Gilbert Galletti and Paul Hérault, who were about to be killed by the Germans, and she greeted the arrival of an "Operation Toplink" team which included her friends John Roper, Paddy O'Regan, and Harvard They were tasked with organizing the French and Italian resistance along the border. She subverted some of the Polish soldiers in the Alps.After a two-day hike to the Col de Larche, a prominent mountain pass on the Franco-Italian border, she approached a formidable fortress, manned by 150 soldiers. When the order was given by resistance forces to desert and destroy the fortress, she talked to the 63 Polish soldiers among them and gave them instructions on how to do it. Six days later a small force of maquis and two Operation Toplink officers, John Roper and John Halsey, approached the garrison and the German commander surrendered the fortress. The Poles in the garrison were told to join the French resistance. Rescuing Cammaerts. Two days before the Allied landings in southern France, a French officer and an SOE agent were arrested at a roadblock by the Gestapo. Along the way to meet the 10-man allied military mission, <mask> rushed back from the Col de Larche.She told them that she was in charge when Cammaerts was away. She tried to get French resistance leaders to storm the prison in Digne to rescue Cammaerts and the others. She decided to go for a bike ride to Digne. "Frankie and Johnny", a favourite tune of hers and Cammaerts, was played on the walls of the prison by <mask>. He confirmed that he was within. The liaison officer between the local French prefecture and the Gestapo was an Alsatian named Captain Albert Schenck. She introduced herself as a niece of Bernard Montgomery and threatened to kill Schenck if the prisoners were harmed.She offered two million Swiss Francs for the men's release. Two million Swiss Francs were air-mailed to her after she was informed in London. She returned to Schenck's office with money in hand. The Allied invasion of southern France occurred on August 15th and Allied soldiers were quickly moving toward Digne, a fact that was apparent to the Germans and their French allies. Schenck introduced her to a Gestapo officer who had the authority to order the release of the SOE agents. She met him in Schenck's apartment at four in the afternoon. Waem, dressed in his uniform, walked out of the prison with the others.They expected to be on the way to their execution, but instead Waem led them to an automobile and they were driven to the outskirts of Digne where <mask> was waiting for them. They thought she was a prisoner when she got into the car. They went to the bank of the river to bury Waem's tunic. He realized that they were not going to be executed. Schenck was told to leave Digne after the other two men were released. He was murdered by someone unknown. After the war, his wife tried to exchange the bribe for new Swiss Francs.She was released after the authorities investigated her story. She was able to exchange a small amount of money. They helped her return to her home. Waem was promised by <mask> that he would not be arrested by the British. He returned to Belgium after surviving the war. The story of <mask>s's bribe is fictionalized in the last episode of Wish Me Luck. A military operation.The American army liberated Digne two days after the rescues. There was little opposition as the maquis cleared the way for the Americans. The two men met the American commander at Sisteron on August 20. He dismissed them as "bandits" after they offered their help. No respecter of rank, <mask> was angry and had to be calmed down by an aide to the general. The two left the American army behind and went to Gap, where the German garrison had been captured by the maquis. Several hundred Poles, conscripted soldiers in the German army, were among the captured Germans.The Poles agreed to join the Allied forces if they gave up their German uniforms. The Poles did not have their uniforms on. The proceedings were disapproved of by the General and he threatened to arrest and court martial the two men if they did not leave. General Alexander Patch appointed them as the liaison for the Americans with the maquis. The couple traveled northward to Lyon and Paris. A military flight took Skarbek to London. When the SOE teams returned from France in the fall of 1944, some of the British women sought new missions in the Pacific War, where the war with the Empire of Japan continued.As the Red Army advanced across Poland, the British government and Polish government-in-exile worked together to create a network that would report on events in the People's Republic of Poland. Kowerski and <mask> were about to be dropped into Poland in early 1945. The mission was canceled because the first party to enter Poland were captured by the Red Army. The Women's Transport Service, the First Aid Nursing Yeomanry, and the Women's Auxiliary Air Force were all given military rank, as well as a commission in either the First Aid Nursing Yeomanry, or the Women's Air Force. She had been a member of the FANY. After the end of the war in Europe, she became a flight officer in the WAAF. The George medal was given to <mask> for his exploits.Several years after the Digne incident, she told another Pole and fellow World War II veteran that she had been unaware of any danger to herself. After she and her friends made good their escape, she realized what she had done. They could have shot me as well. In May 1947 she was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire, an award normally associated with officers of the equivalent military rank of lieutenant colonel, for her work with the British authorities. The Polish military chiefs treated her with the highest respect despite her problems with them during the war. The award of the Croix de Guerre was given to <mask> for his contribution to the liberation of France. After the war, <mask> was left without financial reserves or a native country to return to.The author of Hide and Seek dedicated his book to the memory of Christine Granville, who was saved from execution by the Gestapo. The British government turned down her application for a work permit, even though she was unable to find a job. She went back to London to work as a telephone operator, a salesperson, a waitress, and a cabin steward on ocean liners. The crew of the Ruahine were required to wear any medals they had been awarded during the war. He was the victim of a campaign of abuse for being a foreigner, a woman and a suspected liar. She broke off with Muldowney after he became obsessed with her. Christine Granville was stabbed to death in the Shelbourne Hotel in London on June 15, 1952.She had started work as a steward with the Union-Castle Line six weeks before she booked into the hotel. Her cousin identified her body. She claimed on her British passport that she was 37 years old when she died. At the time of her murder, Dennis George Muldowney was a steward at the Reform Club. Muldowney was hanged at HMP Pentonville after being convicted of her murder. St Mary's Roman Catholic Cemetery is in Kensal Green. Her grave was renovated by the Polish Heritage Society.Several press reports and two books were stopped by a group of men, led by Andrew Kennedy, who were dedicated to ensuring that her name was not sullied. Madeleine Masson said that "twelve men who all loved Christine banded together to make sure that no-one wrote rubbish about her." Masson received the support of the group to publish a "scrubbed" version of Granville's life. Kowerski/Kennedy died of cancer in Germany. His ashes were buried at the foot of his grave. The Polish group that bought the Shelbourne Hotel in 1971 found her trunk with clothes, papers, and a dagger. The dagger, her medals, and some of her papers are in the Polish Institute and the Sikorski Museum in London.In May of last year, a bronze bust was unveiled at the Polish Hearth Club in London. English Heritage will place a plaque at the site of the former Shelbourne Hotel in 2020. The plaque was unveiled six years after Mulley proposed it to English Heritage. William F. Nolan claimed that Ian Fleming's first James Bond novel, Casino Royale, had a resemblance to Christine Granville. Fleming wrote From Russia, with Love, on Skarbek, according to Nolan.

title: John Davis Long

texts: <mask> was an American lawyer, politician, and writer. He was the 32nd Governor of Massachusetts. He was the Secretary of the Navy from 1897 to 1902, during which time the naval Spanish–American War took place. After graduating from Harvard University, <mask> settled in Hingham, Massachusetts. He ran for the state legislature in 1874 and won. He was elected lieutenant governor in 1879 and governor in 1880. During his three years as governor, he advocated modest reforms.President William McKinley offered him a cabinet post after he returned to private practice. He didn't have a lot of knowledge of naval matters, but he decided to become Secretary of the Navy. The Spanish–American War broke out in 1898 and he clashed with Theodore Roosevelt over the expansion of the Navy. He resumed his law practice after Roosevelt became president. His publications include a verse translation of Aeneid, a history of the Spanish–American War, and a lifelong journal. <mask> <mask> was the son of Zadoc <mask> and Julia Temple (<mask>) <mask>. <mask> is a cousin of his maternal grandfather.He graduated from Harvard University with a degree in 1856. He was a member of the Alpha chapter at Harvard. <mask> wrote both prose and verse for a student magazine, and was chosen to write an ode for his class's graduation. He started a private journal before he arrived at Harvard. <mask> became a member of the Massachusetts bar after two years as the head of Westford Academy. He practiced law in Boston and Buckfield before joining the state militia during the American Civil War. After moving to Massachusetts in 1869, he married Mary Woodford Glover.Before her death in 1882, the couple had two daughters and one stillborn birth. In 1870, <mask> began his involvement in politics at the local level. His political beliefs were dominated by the issue of  Temperance. He supported a Republican for governor in 1871 but later received a nomination from the Democrats for a seat in the Massachusetts House of Representatives. He lost the election. He was nominated by both Democrats and Republicans. He was convinced that reform would be accomplished from within the party organization.<mask> was elected to the state legislature after chairing the state Republican convention. He formed a close relationship with Speaker <mask>. He was elected to the speakership in 1876 with the help of this support. He supported Benjamin Bristow in his unsuccessful bid for the Republican presidential nomination. <mask> tried to challenge Rice for the gubernatorial nomination in 1877. After Rice announced his retirement, <mask> again sought the nomination. <mask> won the lieutenant governor nomination by acclamation.The Republican ticket won the general election because the Democratic opposition was divided by Benjamin Butler's return to that party. <mask> capitalized on Talbot's avoidance of public ceremonies to maintain a high profile. <mask> was easily nominated for governor when Talbot decided not to run for reelection, despite a lack of support from the party leadership. The election was very divisive, pitting <mask> against the Democrats. <mask> won a comfortable victory despite being criticized for his lack of Civil War service. He was reelected in two years. P.A.M. Tayler described <mask>'s time as governor as relatively boring.He proposed a number of modest reforms, including an expansion of women's voting rights, and allowing women to sit on state boards. Most of the reforms were not implemented during his time in office. He attended all manner of civic events across the state. In one of his last acts as governor, he appointed a man to the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court. The appointment was made due to the sudden resignation of Otis Lord, a Republican who may have resigned in order to deny the appointment opportunity to the incoming Democratic Governor. The Governor's Council had to approve the appointment before the last day of <mask>'s term. <mask> was elected to the United States Congress in the 1882 election and served until 1889, declining to run for reelection in the 1888 election.In 1886, he was encouraged to stand for the Senate by Henry Cabot Lodge, who was apparently part of a ruse to test the strength of the state party leadership. The legislature reelected Henry L. Dawes to the seat after Lodge withdrew his support at the last minute. Relations between Lodge and <mask> were cooled by the incident. In the run up to the Senate election, <mask> was offered Democratic support, but refused because he thought it would be seen as a political deal. The Congress was under Democratic Party control for six years, during which <mask> served. In addition to lobbying the administration for patronage appointments, he sat on a joint committee examining interests of shipbuilding and shipowners, as well as on conference committees dealing with pensions and Navy financing. In 1886 <mask> married again, this time to a teacher and daughter of a minister, and they had a son.After eight years in private practice, <mask> decided not to run for another term in Congress. He appeared on his clients' behalf in court and in legislative committee hearings. He was a public speaker for a long time. He supported the Young Men's Republican Club, which sought to bring new blood into the party. He refused the chance to challenge George Frisbie Hoar. He was a member of the committee that oversaw the enlargement of the Massachusetts State House. <mask> was a close friend of William McKinley, who was elected President in 1896.The Secretary of the Navy was McKinley's choice. The United States Senate confirmed him on March 2, 1897. The Henry Cabot Lodge criticized the appointment. Lodge had been elected to the Senate, dominated the Republican Party in Massachusetts, and had expected to have a say in choosing a cabinet nominee in return for his support of McKinley. One of Lodge's supporters said that <mask> would not give the administration "back-bone and vigor" because he was in poor health. After a nervous breakdown, <mask> returned to his law practice. Lodge helped secure the position of assistant secretary for Theodore Roosevelt, a New Yorker.Roosevelt pushed a view to aggressively modernize and expand the Navy against <mask>'s more studied and conservative approach. He wanted to expand the Navy slowly. <mask> committed himself to the nation's peaceful growth in line with McKinley's policies as the nation's global interests grew. <mask> took steps to control his subordinates as a result of his disagreements with Roosevelt. Roosevelt wrote "I wish that I could poison his mind so as to make him a shade more Truculent in international matters" He objected to <mask>'s policy of deferring much of the department's work to its permanent bureau chiefs, which resulted in constraints on the flow of information the administration received. <mask> commented that he was a civilian who did not know the stem from the stern of a ship.It was believed that the war between Spain and the US would be easy to win. Significant steps were not taken to prepare the Navy for that contingency. The ship Maine was ordered to Havana, Cuba, in January 1898. Due to the Cuban War of Independence, he and McKinley were concerned for the safety of Americans in Cuba. By early February 1898, tensions had reached crisis proportions, and <mask> was compelled to begin drawing up plans for war. The Spanish–American War began after the explosion and sinking of the Maine at Havana. The public outcry over the sinking was not ignored by the administration.Roosevelt used his authority in <mask>'s absence to issue a number of orders designed to increase the Navy's readiness for war, including famously ordering Commodore George Dewey into an aggressive offensive posture in the Spanish Philippines. After Roosevelt's orders, long countermanded, but began ramping up naval war preparations. The loss of the Maine highlighted the nation's lack of modern warships, setting off a scramble for the acquisition of more ships. The Navy's most powerful ship was transferred from the west coast to the Caribbean in 66 days, thanks to an order from <mask>. The war was declared in 1898. <mask> thought it was foolish for Roosevelt to resign his post the next month. <mask> directed the Navy's activities throughout the war, increasing its size in the process.He worked to support a blockade and offensive operations against Cuba and ordered Dewey to destroy the Spanish fleet in the Philippines. He directed naval resources into threatening postures against mainland Spain in order to encourage the recall of a fleet destined for the Philippines. After the war, <mask> created a permanent advisory staff. The purpose of the board was to unify the work of the Office of Naval Intelligence, the Naval War College, and the fleet leadership for the production of war plans and the proper preparation, planning, and deployment of naval resources. After the war, <mask> pushed forward plans to establish a naval base in the Philippines, however, the funding was held up in Congress, which repeatedly sought review of potential base locations in the islands. The War Department objected to the Navy's establishment of a permanent base there that was not under its authority. The construction of the Subic Bay Naval Base did not start until after <mask> left office.<mask> was promoted as a potential vice presidential candidate by the Massachusetts delegation to the 1900 Republican National Convention, and was a personal favorite of McKinley's for the position. Lodge wore a <mask> banner even though he supported Roosevelt, even though party leaders objected to him on geographic grounds. <mask> decided to stay on for McKinley's second term after the election. After McKinley was killed in 1901, <mask> changed his mind and resigned to Roosevelt. Several factors probably contributed to this. Roosevelt had a close relationship with Lodge, was known to disagree with <mask> on naval matters, and was not welcomed at the White House. An inquiry into the actions of Schley around the July 1898 Battle of Santiago de Cuba resulted in a lot of criticism of <mask>'s role in the war.Less than a month after McKinley's assassination, one of his daughters died. Roosevelt squabbled with <mask> over the beginning of the war and then made news when he ignored some of <mask>'s decisions. Roosevelt took a great interest in the Navy and had difficulty working with his secretaries. <mask> was interested in party politics and resumed his law practice in Massachusetts. He was the president of the Puritan Trust Company. He served on the boards of several private schools, including his alma mater. He fell ill in Maine in August 1915 after spending a lot of time there.He died in Hingham on August 28. In addition to <mask>'s journal, he wrote on a variety of other subjects. During his unsuccessful attempt to start a law practice in Buckfield, he produced a paper on Congressional power and slavery. He had a play produced in Boston in the early 1860s. He produced a verse translation of Aeneid. The New American Navy, a history of the Spanish–American War and the development of the Navy were published in 1903. The Zadoc Long Free Library is a result of <mask> funding the establishment of a public library in Buckfield in 1900.The ship was named in his honor. The author is also the editor of the Massachusetts legislature.

texts: She was an English journalist, author and editor. She was the second editor of the Girl's Own Paper and was best known for her Flower-Patch series of books. One of the six children of a German-born man and his wife was born on January 26, 1867 in London. When <mask> was in her teens, the family moved to south London. She studied at the Royal College of Organists and Trinity College of Music and wanted to be a concert pianist. She was advised to rest after being found to be suffering from arrhythmia. She went to the small village of Brockweir in the Wye valley to visit her mother's family.She had tonsillitis and was stricken with quinsy. At the age of 21 she began writing on musical subjects for Sylvia's Home Journal and other magazines aimed at women, and by 1895 had started contributing articles and interviews with musicians to The Windsor Magazine, one of the best-known story periodicals of the time. Her mother died in 1903 and her father remarried in 1908 and lived in Battersea with his new wife. She stayed in the house until she married. She became the editor of The Foreign Field in 1904. She had begun writing and editing books for young girls. The first editor of the Girl's Own Paper was Charles Peters.The Religious Tract Society published a periodical aimed at girls and young women. She introduced new themes such as careers advice for girls, advice on style and dress, photography contests and crafts, as well as moving the magazine from a weekly to monthly format. The place of long serials was taken by a larger number of shorter stories from distant parts of the world. Overwork and stress caused her to breakdown in 1912. She spent a period of convalescence at a rented cottage close to Brockweir. She married a widower named Ebenezer Henderson Smith, one of the executives at the RTS, in June 1913. The wedding took place at St John the Evangelist.The couple's home was pulled down in the 1950s. The couple bought a second house at Brockweir. The first of a series of books of written sketches of life in her country cottage at Brockweir was published in May 1916. The book, The Flower-Patch Among the Hills, was based on articles which she had originally written for the Girl's Own Paper, and was highly successful. She owned a number of cottages in the area. The stories grew to involve her household and the local people, combining nature description, anecdote, autobiography, religion, and humour. Over the course of 32 years, seven Flower Patch books were published.Her writing was described as "humorous, elegant and beautifully observed, revealing a genuine love and concern for the natural world". She decried the taking of wild flower bulbs and wrote of the virtues of gardening without artificial chemicals. She published novels, advice books, children's stories and non-fiction on many topics including gardening, cooking, and needlework techniques, some of which have been republished in recent years. She and her husband retired permanently to Brockweir after she was editor of the Girl's Own Paper. She continued to write Flower Patch books after 1948. After her husband's death in 1937, she lived an increasingly secluded life. She was buried in the graveyard of the church.

texts: The Victoria Cross is the highest award for bravery in the face of the enemy that can be given to British and Commonwealth forces. He moved to Australia in the early 20th century. When the First World War began, he was a law student. He was posted to the 19th Battalion after volunteering for the Australian Imperial Force. The Battle of Passchendaele took place on the Western Front. The actions that led to his award of the VC were performed during the German spring offensive of 1918. He was a captain during the war.He became a crown prosecutor for the New South Wales Department of Justice after being discharged from the AIF. He served as a district court judge until his retirement in 1955. He died in England at the age of 78. The son of an Englishman and a New Zealand woman was born in New Zealand in 1893. William and Samuel's father moved to Napier as a young boy. He studied fine arts at Victoria College in Wellington after graduating from Napier Boys' High School. As a teenager, he was an infantryman in the Territorial Force and later achieved the rank of colour sergeant.He worked as a clerk for a steamship company in Australia in the early 20th century. He joined the administrative staff at the University of Sydney. The First World War limited his studies at the law school. On May 10, 1915, <mask> enlisted for service in the Australian Imperial Force. He was a platoon sergeant in the 30th battalion before he was commissioned as a second lieutenant. He left for England on the Suevic at the end of the year, but not before he was presented with a wristwatch by his former colleagues. After being posted to the 19th Battalion, he was stationed on the Western Front in France.He was wounded on the Somme within days of joining the battalion. He was wounded in the ankle during the Battle of Passchendaele in October 1917 and was promoted to lieutenant in January 1917. He was given temporary command of the company after returning to duty. The 19th Battalion, part of the 2nd Division, helped in shoring up the front-lines as the Germans advanced in the spring of 1918. While holding the lines near Villers-Bretonneux, he and his company were sent forward to clear Hangard Wood, believed to be lightly held by the enemy. After a covering bombardment lifted, the company began its advance early in the morning, but <mask> had fallen asleep and was left behind at the starting line. He woke up and caught up with the advance.Captain Clarrie Wallach, the company's commander, was one of the casualties caused by machine gun fire. The machine gun post that was holding up the advance was outflanked by a small party. Despite being detected as they approached, he seized the initiative and led a charge that saw his party capture a machine gun along with 50 Germans and kill or wounded about 30 more. The Germans were deceived into thinking the force facing them was larger than it was by his conduct. The Australians were unable to locate their objective as they pushed further into the wood. The company was withdrawn back to their starting positions because of the available cover that was too exposed. He was told to take the position back but advised that he had too few men to do so.His explanation was accepted and he returned to his trench. Over 150 soldiers of the company became casualties of the attack, but it resulted in useful information on the German forces. He was awarded the Victoria Cross for his actions.

title: Ray Bright

texts: <mask> is a former Australian cricketer. He captained Victoria for a number of seasons and was a left arm spinner. He was an Australian vice-captain. <mask> made his One Day International debut for Australia on the tour of New Zealand. He made his Test debut in the Second Test at Old Trafford after touring England and New Zealand in 1977. He played in only twenty-five Tests and eleven One Day Internationals during his twelve-year international career, despite being a fixture in the Australian squad over the next decade. He played in fifteen Supertests for the Australian XI during the World Series Cricket in 1977–78 and 1978–79.The best moment in international cricket was when he took 5 for 94 in India in the second Test in Madras in 1986. He captained Australia in one match, a loss, against Pakistan in April 1986. For a time, <mask> was known for having made almost as many tours as he had played Tests. <mask> was selected to tour New Zealand, England, the West Indies, and Pakistan. <mask> made his club debut for Footscray in 1969/70 as a left-arm orthodox spin bowler. In December 1971 he was selected to play for Victoria against Western Australia. He was the youngest player since World War Two.He was the 12th man. He played for the colts in Victoria. <mask> returned to the Victorian team for the 1972– 73 season. He made his first class debut. He made 67 as a nightwatchman. <mask> was in the Victorian side for the rest of the season. <mask> played well during the 1973–74 season.He took 6–61 and 1–27 against South Australia, 4–41 againstWA, and a century partnership in a Victoria vs New Zealand game. His name started to be mentioned as an international prospect. He had an average of 19.6 over the summer. He was a bolter selection on the New Zealand tour in the 70's, replacing Terry Jenner as the third spin option. <mask> made his debut for Australia in a one-day game against Wellington taking 2–15. He played in his first first class game for Australia. He took four against Northern Districts.He had an average of 21.87 on the tour, but only took 8 first class wickets. He made his international debut in the third one-day international against New Zealand. <mask> made 44. <mask> was expecting to spend the 1974 winter at home when he got a call from the Ramsbottom Club. They needed a replacement for Wasim Raja, who was called up by Pakistan. <mask> only had three weeks to accept the offer. He was forced to get a job because he had to pay his air fare out of his fee.He worked in a factory. <mask> says he was abused by 500 workers at this factory on Monday. He said, "You're expected to bat in the top four, and if you don't get some runs, particularly if the side's not doing very well, the locals do tend to let you know very quickly that you've been the worst pro." His form improved. <mask> said that early on, he was tending to balloon a few to mid off or mid on, which a lot of Australians tend to do. It was a matter of adapting to different conditions and, quite often, the bowlers are a bit slower than what you're used to facing in first class cricket back home. <mask> took 523 runs for the season at 30.8 and 73 strikeouts at 9.7.Ramsbottom won the title three times in their history. <mask> was considered a strong prospect for the 1975 tour of England but found it hard to get runs at home in the summer 2014–2018. Ian Redpath would bowl himself instead of <mask>. One writer said that the comment on his form could not have been worse. The Australian team for the summer of 1975 had two spinners, but the other one was picked to go to England. <mask> attributed his poor form in part to his league stint in England, where he ended up bowling a lot quicker. It took me a long time to change what I was doing in Australia.He said that the batsman weren't taking any risks against him. After I was selected for New Zealand, they took no risks and I had to fight for my life. <mask> was 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 He stayed in Australia and focused on his fitness instead of returning to Ramsbottom.

I'm averaging between 20 and 30 overs. It used to be 10–12. <mask> said that he had been trying to give the ball more tweaking. You have to do more than just bowl accurately against the good hitters. I was born with a left arm. Spinners are a very rare breed in Australia.There isn't much practice against a left hander here. Anything you can do differently is a help. The poor batting and fielding of rivals David Hourn and Jim Higgs helped <mask>'s claim for national selection. He was selected for the 1977 Tour of New Zealand.

They were the two Australian spinners.He wasn't allowed to train with the Victorian squad. <mask> said he had no complaints. Packer has a lot of security.

In a four-day trial match for WSC Australia against a World XI, <mask> made 47 in Australia's firstinnings, helping them recover from a collapse.

He scored 29 not out in the fourth test, which was shortened by a riot. He took 1–34 0–43 and 1–31 in one day. He struggled with the ball in the final Supertest, taking 1–60, but took part in a crucial second-innings partnership with Rod Marsh which helped secure a draw. The last ball of unofficial World Series Cricket was thrown.<mask> was Australia's number one spinner for the entire World Series. <mask> said that he and Rod Marsh were the only two that played in the Supertests. Fourteen all up, ten in Australia and four in the West Indies. I think they were my best two years. <mask> was contacted by a club in the Lancashire League who needed a replacement for Peter Sleep, who was travelling to India with the Australian team. He took 41 of them. He participated in a competition against Zaheer Abbas.<mask> went straight back into the state squad after winning the Shield in 1978–79. During the 1979–80 season, <mask> was injured. He recalls throwing his arm out on the day before the Shield game. I lost a lot of power and a lot of things I could do. I probably changed my technique after that to get more side-on. I was facing the wrong way when I arrived to bowl. I thought I was doing the right thing by changing things, but it didn't work.I was told I could have one, but it was up to me to organize. <mask> was selected to play in the first test against the West Indies. It was the first Australian side since World Series players returned. <mask> played in the McDonald's Cup semi final the day after he was selected. <mask> scored 1–97 on the test. <mask> played against the West Indies, England and the West Indies.

Ian Chappell replaced <mask> for the second test against England. He only took seven first class wickets over the summer, an average of 63.85. Greg Chappell thought it was a delayed reaction to "midatory batting" during World Series Cricket. A lot of spinners would have folded in WSC, but <mask>y stood up to it. WSC probably changed his game a bit, got him bowling a bit more defensively and it eventually cost him a bit of his bite.He'd had a tough time bowling against the top twenty or thirty hitters in the world day in, day out. It took its toll mentally. <mask> was picked for the Tour of Pakistan. <mask> took 5–93 and 6–29 against the BCCP President's XI in the 1980 Tour of Pakistan. He was one of two people picked for the first test. Pakistan prepared a pitch. Australia was dismissed for 225 by Iqbal Qasim and Tauseef Ahmed.<mask> kept Australia in the game, keeping Pakistan out of it. <mask> said that the turn was very slow and made him concentrate on his line. Australia collapsed for 140 in the second half
