	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Jaffa
		In the reign of Cyrus Jaffa again served as a landing-port for the materials destined for the reconstruction of the Temple (Ezra 3:7).
		Captured by the crusaders, it became, under Godfrey of Bouillon, the County of Jaffa and Ascalon, feudatory to the King of Jerusalem.
		Jaffa is connected by railroad with Jerusalem; its harbour, which is difficult of access, received 1789 steam or sailing vessels in 1907, and transacted business to the extent of 28 million francs ($5,600,000) — 17,000,000 imports and 11,000,000 exports.

	Lordship of Ramla - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It was part of the County of Jaffa and Ascalon.
		In 1126 Ramla became part of the County of Jaffa, and a separate lordship was created after the revolt of Count Hugh II in 1134, with Baldwin II as lord (although Baldwin I was not a lord in his own right).
		Though legally distinct, Ramla in practise merged with the other Ibelin holdings regained after the Third Crusade, and in the mid-13th century it was indistinguishable from the larger County of Jaffa and Ascalon.

	Sobran's --- The Imaginary Abe
		The states were not formed by counties delegating powers to them; the counties had no sovereignty, but were mere subdivisions of the states.
		Jaffa tries to make Lincoln sound like an avatar of the Founding Fathers, but about all he took from them was a set of snippets — “All men are created equal,” “consent of the governed,” et cetera — from which he wrung inferences they would have rejected.
		Similarly, Jaffa can’t drop the idea that Abe Lincoln was on a lifelong “mission” — his word — to achieve Negro equality in America.

	WHO'S WHO IN POTTER COUNTY
		During the Civil War, the primary sentiment of the county was anti-slavery and the underground railroad functioned in the area.
		Today Potter County stands as a monument to her early settlers, to the contributors to her history, the men who planted new forests and reclaimed the wasted land, and who, with ingenuity and ambition, made the region important in the oil and gas industry, in farming and in dairying and potato growing.
		Hall was educated in the public schools of the county and was graduated from Elmira Free Academy of Elmira, New York.

	Ashqelon, Israel

		Saladin retrieved the strategic port for Islam after the Battle of Hittin, July 4, 1187, but with the Third Crusade a few years later, Saladin systematically demolished Ascalon lest it fall once more into the hands of the infidel.

	Ramla, Israel
