		Because the city was such a well-known hot-bed of revolutionary fervor, and because of its long history of disdain for royal and parliamentary efforts to control its trade, the British occupied Newport from 1776 to 1779, and over half of the town’s population fled.
		Newport’s history is remarkable in many ways, but perhaps the most unique aspect is the fact that so much of its history is still visible on the landscape in an unparalleled concentration of preserved architecture.
		By 1853, several prominent Newporters recognized the need for a separate organization specifically devoted to preserving the history of Newport County, and the collections of the Southern Cabinet were reorganized under the auspices of the Newport Historical Society.

	NativeTech: Wampum; History and Background
		The alternating panels of blue and white at the ends are evidently a convention imitated from the Iroquois.
		Purple and fl wampum are color variants of the same bead, and were used for serious or civic affairs, sometimes indicating dis-ease, distress or hostility, at least in referring to the background colors in belt patterns.

	Background Reading: History
		There is no known sighting of this transit in recorded history until the British Cleric, Jeremiah Horrocks and his friend William Crabtree spotted it on December 4, 1639, and that is only because Horrocks had mathematically predicted this transit using better data than Kepler had used.

		It reminded me of the golden rain which is sometimes seen falling from a flight of sky-rockets during pyrotechnic displays; but I would gladly have dispensed with the spectacle, for it necessarily followed that the sun and Venus again disappeared from view.

		This demands comment on some aspect of the history and origins of the language.
