 California During the Revolution
For their part, California governors and presidial commanders found the mission priests to be a haughty lot who sometimes considered themselves superior to the military.
Governors and commanders assumed that the soldiers would remain in California following their tours of duty and local marriages and land grants were strong inducements to this end.
The fathers of the Mexican governors Alvarado and Pico and of the Generals Vallejo and Castro had all begun as presidials, as were the founders of the important California houses of De la Guerra, Ortega, Peralta, Valencia, Sanchez, Bernal, Alviso, Galindo, Carrillo, Moraga, and others.

 History of the State Education Department   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Until the board was reorganized under the unification act of 1904, nineteen Regents were elected for life terms by joint ballot of the Legislature; in addition, the governor and lieutenant governor served as Regents.
The commission's report proposed that a new department of education succeed the Department of Public Instruction and include the University, and that the Regents be appointed for fixed terms by the Governor with consent of the Senate.
It was renamed the division of administration in 1907, relieved of its fiscal responsibilities in 1921, and headed by an assistant commissioner after 1932.

 Forfeiture in England and Colonial America
By the seventeenth century crimes that were considered felonies included murder, manslaughter, witchcraft, larceny, abduction of an heiress with intent to marry her, forgery of a deed or testimonial, transportation of a sheep, and malicious cutting of another man's tongue or his eyes [Veall, 1970:2].
Some were royal colonies (such as Virginia) thought to be under direct control of the Crown; others were chartered colonies (e.g., Massachusetts) in which extensive governing rights were given to a charter company; still others were proprietary colonies (e.g., Maryland and Pennsylvania) in which a single owner had been granted vast authority [Hall, 1989:14].
This created a difficult situation, because slaves, in many of the colonies, were considered chattel and could, theoretically, be included as part of a forfeiture if their owner were convicted and attained for a capital felony.

Prior to that it was the preserve of all colonial Governors, and Jamaicans could only serve as vice-president.
Broderick was himself cut down in an even greater ambush by a member of his staff, a young Courtney Fletcher who had probably learned the strategies practised by his elder.
The tremendous efforts exerted to hold on to the reins of office during this period perhaps left little energy or creativity to do anything else as Fletcher's administration witnessed the decline in the fortunes as well as the status of the once powerful JAS.

 African Forum
The equivalence of individuals within groups derived concretely from the manipulation of people in the mechanics of colonial administration, just as museums of African art derived from the possibilities of thievery in discrete periods of conquest, and animal "families" in natural history museums were assembled from kills made within particular safaris.
Colonial personnel in Africa prided themselves on interior knowledge, but they took their general orders from metropolitan officials living far away, whether in Mafeking and Cape Town, or the Foreign Office in London and the colonial ministry in Paris.
Such examples again show that the role of images in the colonial project does not emerge from the images themselves, but rather lies in their appropriation into structures of distribution and consumption.
