Topic: John Frere


  
  Henry Bartle Frere - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Born at Clydach in Brecknockshire, he was the son of Edward Frere and a nephew of John Hookham Frere, of Anti-Jacobin and Aristophanes fame.
Frere impressed upon the colonial office his belief that Cetshwayo's army had to be eliminated, an idea that was generally accepted until Frere sent Cetshwayo an ultimatum in December 1878 and the home government realized the problems inherent in a native war.
Upon his return Frere replied to the charges relating to his conduct respecting Afghanistan as well as South Africa, previously preferred in Gladstone's Midlothian speeches, and was preparing a fuller vindication when he died at Wimbledon from the effect of a severe chill on May 29, 1884.

FRERE, JOHN HOOKHAM (1769-1846), English diplomatist and author, was born in London on the 21St of May 1769.
Frere was strongly of opinion that the bolder was the better course, and he urged his views on Sir John Moore with an urgent and fearless persistency that on one occasion at least overstepped the limits of his commission.
Frere's complete works were published in 1871, with a memoir by his nephews, W. and Sir Bartle Frere, and reached a second edition in 1874.

The newspaper was published by John Wright and edited by William Gifford, with contributions from George Canning, Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, John Hookham Frere, and others.
Gillray satirizes radical politician John Horne Tooke’s alliance with Fox’s Whig party by alluding to Horne Tooke’s 1788 essay, also called “Two Pairs of Portraits.” In this pamphlet he had extolled the virtues of William Pitt the Elder and the Younger, while he denounced Fox and his father, Lord Holland, as corrupt and unscrupulous.
John Bull’s hat hangs over a print of “Buonaparte in Egypte,” while, visible through the open window, Fox and Sheridan, dismayed by events so contrary to their predictions, beat a hasty retreat.

He reported flint weapons found at a depth of twelve feet in a layer of gravel, overlain by a bed of sand containing bones of extinct animals and, remarkably, shells and remains of marine creatures 'which may be conjectured to have been once the bottom, or at least the shore, of the sea'.
By the time of Frere's death in 1807 Jacques Boucher de Perthes was already becoming interested in archaeology in France; he spent several decades studying the gravel quarries of northern France.
