http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tross
<<The {TROSS} was the camp follower contingent of the Landsknecht
mercenary regiments which originated at the end of the fifteenth
century and were the dominant form of infantry mercenary force
throughout the sixteenth century. Each Landsknecht unit traveled with
a Tross contingent, which followed behind. They carried the military
and fighting necessities, the food and the belongings of each
"soldat" ("soldier") and his family. Members of the Tross were made
up of women, children, craftsmen and day laborers. The term "support
staff" can be used to give the German word a clearer meaning, although
its true English translation is "Unit train" or "Baggage train".
Many women of the Tross were wives of the soldiers, or other family
members such as sisters, nieces, or daughters. Some of the women
were betrothed to a member of the military unit. Very few single,
unattached women were permitted into the ranks of the Tross in fear
that their possible turn to prostitution would cause unrest in the
baggage train by disrupting family relationships. Unattached women
allowed into the Tross were those who possessed a skill or trade which
made them a valuable asset not only to the Tross unit but to the
military unit as well. However, they were closely watched until they
took a legitimate husband. In addition were supporting craftsmen
and Sudlers/merchants of all kinds. The custom of a regiment being
followed by the Tross continued beyond the period of the Landsknechts.
During the Thirty Years' War, it could occur that a 1,000 man
regiment would be accompanied by 500 women and 300 children.
The Tross was indispensable for supply purposes, although it
limited the freedom of movement of the army. At times the
Tross fell prey to the opposing army.>>

Restituta: or Titles, Extracts, and Characters
of Old Books in English literature, revived"
Volume 2 By Samuel Egerton Brydges
The end of the XV. Book of Ovid's Metamorphosis.
("Arthur Golding" translation : reprinted by R. Waldegrave [1587])
Now have I brought a work to end, which neither Jove's fierce wrath,
Nor sword, nor fire, nor fretting age with all the force it hath
Are able to abolish quite. Let come that fatal hour,
Which (saving of his brittle flesh) hath over me no power,
And at his pleasure make an end of mine uncertain time:
Yet shall the better part of M[E] a{S}sured be to climb
Aloft above the STAR[R]Y {S}ky. And all the world shall nEVER
Be abl[E] f{O}r *to quench my name* . For look how far soE[V]E{R}
The Roman empire by the right of conqu[E]s{T} shall extend,
So far shall all folk rea[D] this work. And time without all end
(If Poets as by prophecy about the TRUTH may aim)
My life shall EVERlastingly be lengthen'd still by *FAME* .
Finis Libri decimi quinti.
Laus et honor soli Deo.
At London, Imprinted by Robert Waldegrave. 1587.

The Xv. Bookes of P. Ouidius Naso, Entituled,
Metamorphosis A Worke Very Pleasant and Delectable.
Translated Out of Latin Into English Meeter,
by Arthur Golding Gentleman.
Imprinted by Robert Waldegraue, anno Domini 1587.
<<STC casts doubt on Waldegrave's role as printer;
the book is not signed in his usual manner, and the

<<On JUNE 6, 1599, while the painters were putting the finishing
touches to the Globe, a vicious fight took place between two of
Henslowe's playwrights, *JOHN DAY* & HENRY PORTER. A collaborator of
Chettle's, DAY was a 'rogue & base FELLOW' in some eyes. That DAY,
according to the coroner's jury, 'moved by the instigation fo the
Devil, and of malice aforethought', the rageing DAY stabbed Porter
in the left side 'with a certain sword, in English , a rapier'.
Porter died the next morning. DAY got off with manslaughter.>>

<<Arthur Golding's relations with his sister-in-law seem to have been
far from pleasant, as is evidenced by the following extract from
Hunter's manuscript : " There is a bill in the Exchequer 14 Feb.,
1585, to Lord Burghley from his daily orator Arthur Golding Whereas
his late brother Henry Golding Esq., deceased left him in present
possession only the manor of East Thorpe which was encumbered, & gave
the manor of Little Biral [Birch?] with other lands to Alice his wife,
with a clause prohibiting said Arthur from molesting her ; and whereas
one Robert Crispe a very troublesome and unquiet person marrying one
Mary Waldegrave daughter of the said Alice & wife of one Robert
Waldegrave, Esq. yet alive and undivorced under colour of that
unlawful marriage obtained of the said Alice a lease of the said
Henry Goldings chief mansion house & has committed waste and spoil
He prays that he may proceed against Crispe without incurring
the penalty of his brothers will.">>

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tommy_Ross
<<Thomas "Tommy" EVERE-TT *ROSS* is a main characters in the
horror novel Carrie by Stephen King. Tommy is a popular athlete of
Thomas Ewen High School, but is described as more than a mere "jock".
He is a gifted student who has had his poetry published in literary
journals. He has been dating Sue Snell for six months and their
relationship has recently become more intimate. The two of them have
been planning for the Spring Ball for many weeks, but Susan feels
guilty for taunting Carrie in the showers of the school locker-room
when she responded hysterically to her late first period and asks
Tommy to take Carrie to the prom in her place. Carrie, at first,
refuses Tommy's invitation to the prom, but later agrees and sews her
own dress for the prom. Realizing they are nominated for the Prom King
and Queen election, Tommy insists on voting for himself and Carrie,
telling her "Tonight, you go first class." When Vic Mooney announces
them king and queen, they ascend the stage. Tommy realizes he loves
Carrie. One of his last thoughts is that Susan was right, "I love her,
and I love this one too, this Carrie... she is beautiful, the light in
her eyes." Chris Hargensen and her boyfriend Billy Nolan have rigged
two buckets of pig blood above the stage and pull the cord at this
moment. One bucket falls on Tommy's head, fracturing his skull.
Within an hour he is dead.>>
