<<RICHARD HENRY DANA, was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts,
August 1, 1815. He came of a stock that had resided there since the
days of the early settlements; his grandfather, Francis Dana, had been
the first American minister to Russia and later became Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court of Massachusetts; his father was distinguished
as a man of letters. He entered Harvard College in 1831; but near the
beginning of his third year an attack of measles left his eyesight
so weak that study was impossible. Tired of the tedium of a slow
convalescence, he decided on a sea voyage; and choosing to go
as a sailor rather than a passenger, he shipped from Boston on
August 14, 1834, on the brig Pilgrim bound for California.
His experiences form the subject of _Two Years Before the Mast_.>>
Dana's masterpiece begins his sea voyage on August 14, 1834.

Maximilian Mary Kolbe (Feastday: August 14)
http://users.erols.com/saintpat/ss/0814.htm#euse
Born at Zdunska Wola (near Lodz), Poland, in 1894; died at Auschwitz (near
Cracow), August 14, 1941; beatified by Pope Paul VI in 1971; canonized in
1982 by Pope John Paul II.
"Pray that my love will be without limits." --Saint Maximilian Kolbe in his
last letter to his mother.
<<Maxilian Kolbe was the son of Franciscan tertiaries, who were impoverished
weavers. He entered the minor seminary at Lwow in 1907 and became a
Franciscan in 1910. When their children were grown, his parents followed
their natural inclinations and separated to become religious. His mother
first entered the Benedictines and later became a Felician lay sister. His
father was a Franciscan until he left the order to run a bookstore at the
Our Lady's shrine at Czestochowa. At the beginning of World War I, he
enlisted with Palsudski's patriots, was wounded by the Russians, and hanged
as a traitor to Mother Russia in 1914 at the age of 43.
Maximilian studied in Rome, where he was ordained in 1919. Upon being
diagnosed with tuberculosis, he returned to Poland and took up the teaching
of ecclessial history in a seminary. After he came close to dying of the
disease, he became even more zealous. He founded a militant sodality and a
magazine of apologetics for Christians. When he moved the antiquated presses
from Cracow to Grodno circulation increased to 45,000. New machinery was
installed, which was run solely by priests and lay brothers. Following
another attack of tuberculosis, Maximilian re-established the presses near
Warsaw at Niepokalanow. Here Kolbe founded a Franciscan community that
combined prayer, poverty, and the production of a daily and weekly newspaper
using the latest technology.
As unlikely as it may seem, Kolbe's next act was the founding of a
Franciscan community at Nagasaki, Japan. In 1936, he was recalled to
Niepokalanow as the superior over 762 friars. When the Germans invaded
Poland in 1939, Kolbe sent most of the brothers home with the warning that
they should not join the underground resistance. Those that remained were
interned, released, and returned to the monastery, which had become a
refugee camp for 3,000 Poles and 1,500 Jews. The remaining friars continued
to publish newspapers critical of the Third Reich.
In 1940, the Nazis established a concentration camp at Oswiecim in southern
Poland--Auschwitz. Prisoner #16670, a Catholic priest named Maximilian
Kolbe, who had refused German citizenship, was arrested on February 17,
1941, on the charge that he was a journalist, publisher, and intellectual.
The Gestapo officers who seized Maxilian and four other brothers were amazed
at how little food was prepared for the brothers. They were sent to
Auschwitz in May 1941.
Priests in Auschwitz were especially vilified. They were given the job of
moving loads of logs and were beaten when their strength gave way under the
heavy work. One of the savage guards once horsewhipped Kolbe 50 times and
left him for dead in a wood. The saint recovered some of his strength, and
continued to comfort his fellow prisoners, insisting that everything, even
sufferings, came to an end, and the way to glory was through the cross.
Father Kolbe also undertook the task of moving the bodies of the tortured.
Throughout his internment, he continued his priestly ministry: hearing
confessions in unlikely places and smuggling in bread and wine for covert
Masses. He was conspicuous for his compassion towards those even less
fortunate than himself.
One day a prisoner escaped, which meant that men from the same bunker must
be selected to die. In reprisal the prison guards chose ten men, whom they
planned to starve to death. One was a married Polish sergeant named Francis
Gajowniczek. Maximilian Kolbe begged the camp commandant to let him take
Gajowniczek's place, "I am a Catholic priest. I wish to die for that man."
The request was granted. "I am," argued the 47-year-old priest, "old and
useless; he has a wife and children" Maximilian Kolbe comforted each one in
the death chamber of Cell 18 as they prepared to die with dignity by
prayers, Psalms, and the example of Christ's Passion. Two weeks later only
four were left alive and Maximilian alone was still fully conscious. His
guards could scarcely bear the saint's composure, and they speeded his end
by injecting him with phenol.
Although Maximilian Kolbe had been a brilliant scientist, mathematician, and
religious journalist, he is remembered for this last act of charity. Kolbe
was epitomized the Polish religious and the many unsung heroes of the
concentration camps. Pope John Paul II, previously archbishop of Cracow,
canonized Father Kolbe in the presence of the sergeant whose life had been
saved.>>

Thomas Say (1787-1834)
<<Father of American Entomology. Born into a prominent Quaker family
of Philadelphia. He was a founding member of the Academy of Natural
Sciences of Philadelphia. He was appointed chief zoologist of Major
Stephen Long's exploring expedition to the tributaries of the Missouri
River in 1819 and again in 1823 for the expedition to the headwaters of
the Mississippi. During the 1819 expedition he was the first to describe
the coyote, swift fox, western kingbird, band-tailed pigeon, Say's
phoebe, rock wren, lesser goldfinch, lark sparrow, lazuli bunting, and
orange-crowned warbler. Say's studies of North American insects brought
him recognition from the learned societies of Europe. He described
considerably more than 1,000 new species of beetles and over 400 insects
of other orders, including species in every important insect order. His
American Entomology was an important work and remains a classic. It was
published over an eleven-year period with volume 3 being completed in
the utopian community of New Harmony, Indiana, of which he became a
member in 1825.>> http://www.findagrave.com/pictures/11835.html

<<Born Oct. 7, 1849, James Whitcomb Riley gave up formal education in
Greenfield Academy, Indiana, to make a living by doing sign-painting,
stand-up comedy, & medicine shows. He then worked for the Indianapolis
Journal from 1877 to 1885. During this period he developed his
Hoosier dialect and published some of his most loved poems. Riley
went on reading tours of the U.S. with Bill Nye [the science guy?].

<<On July 22, 1816, at a hotel near the Mer du Glace glacier in what
was then Savoy but is now a part of France, the poets Byron & Shelley
registered for a night's stay. Byron listed his age as 100.
Shelley signed in Greek that he was by profession an atheist,
a philanthropist, and a democrat, and in the slot marked destination
he wrote L'Enfer, French for hell. Poet-laureate Robert Southey
came along later and read the blasphemous registry entries, and,
after correcting Shelley's Greek, went home and used these details
as more fue for the gossip mill against the odd entourage
living in Switzerland on the banks of Lake Geneva. Byron
would pay him back mercilessly in The Vision of Judgment. >>

R.B. Gruelle's interest in the. . . ROSICRUCIANS.
----------------------------------------------------------------
http://www.nuvo-online.com/97/12/25/cover/
<<Innumerable children's illustrators and writers over the years
have been influenced by Gruelle's whimsical style, most notably one
Theodore S. Geisel (AKA Dr. Seuss). In a letter to Patricia Hall,
author of the definitive 1993 Gruelle biography titled Johnny Gruelle,
Creator of Raggedy Ann and Andy, Geisel stated that he was
"deeply indebted" to Gruelle's early humorous cartoons.
Johnny Gruelle was born on Christmas Eve, 1880, in the village of
Arcola, Illinois, the first of three children to his parents Richard
& Alice. Richard, or R.B., Gruelle was a highly regarded landscape
painter who would become one of the celebrated Hoosier Group
artists of the following decade. In the early 1880s, however,
he was a struggling artist in search of better prospects.
The Gruelle home was a congenial meeting place for artists and
writers, and young Johnny grew up surrounded by art, poetry and
storytelling. James Whitcomb Riley, then at the peak of his popularity
as "the Hoosier Poet," was a frequent visitor and regaled the Gruelles
with his homespun anecdotes and folk tales. Riley also occasionally
joined in seances which stemmed from R.B. Gruelle's interest in the
philosophies of the Ancient Mystical Order of the ROSAE CRUCIS,
better known as the ROSICRUCIANS. Throughout his adult life, Johnny
maintained this early fascination with spirituality and psychic
phenomena, often incorporating them into his children's writings.>>
