 Philip Francis Little - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: St. Francis of Assisi
Although success came indeed to Francis and his friars, with it came also opposition, and it was with a view to allaying any prejudices the Curia might have imbibed against their methods that Francis, at the instance of Cardinal Ugolino, went to Rome and preached before the pope and cardinals in the Lateran.
Francis received some elementary instruction from the priests of St. George's at Assisi, though he learned more perhaps in the school of the Troubadours, who were just then making for refinement in Italy.
It is very misleading, however, to portray Francis as living "at a height where dogma ceases to exist", and still further from the truth to represent the trend of his teaching as one in which orthodoxy is made subservient to "humanitarianism".

 SIR PHILIP FRANCIS - LoveToKnow Article on SIR PHILIP FRANCIS
But a dispute with Francis, more than usually embittered, led in August 1780 to a minute being delivered to the council board by Hastings, in which he stated that he judged of the public conduct of Mr Francis by his experience of his private, which he had found to be void of truth and honor.
It was natural that Francis, who from a very early age had boon in the habit of writing occasionally to the newspapers, should be eager to take an active part in the discussion, though his position as a government official made it necessary that his intervention should be carefully disguised.
Francis died on the 23rd of December 1818.

 Philip Thomas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Philip Francis Thomas (September 12, 1810 – October 2, 1890) was an American lawyer and politician.
The Congressional Bioguide spells Thomas's first name "Phillip", but nearly every other source spells the name "Philip", including the Maryland State Archives and the Department of the Treasury, so it can be assumed that the Bioguide is incorrect.
Born in Easton, Maryland, he graduated from Dickinson College in Pennsylvania in 1830.

 4 No. 61: In the Matter of Dissolution of Penepent Corporation, Inc. Estate of Francis Penepent v. Richard S. Penepent
When Francis commenced his proceeding, all parties were aware that Philip's proceeding (in which Richard and Angelo had already made section 1118 elections to purchase Philip's shares at fair value) would result in Richard and Angelo owning all of Philip's stock.
Richard thereafter moved to dismiss Francis' dissolution proceeding for lack of standing, arguing that upon Francis' death his estate was contractually obligated to surrender Francis' shares pursuant to the shareholder agreement.
Richard argues that Francis was still a shareholder when he died and, thus, pursuant to the shareholder agreement, Penepent Corporation (not Richard individually) had a right to acquire Francis' shares at the set price and retire them.

Philip founded a religious congregation, the Oratory, and became the counselor of popes and cardinals, the trusted friend of beggars and outcasts.
Philip grew up in a very poor family in Florence, and was later taken in by his uncle, a prosperous merchant.
Despite his wisdom and learning, he was a simple, radiant, childlike soul who never ceased, even in his honored old age, to make jokes, to play with his many pets, to tease, to amuse, to teach the great lesson that it is the joyous heart that wins friends to Christ.

 Junius - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
If Sir Philip Francis did, as his family maintain, address a copy of verses to a Miss Giles in the handwriting of Junius (and the evidence that he did is weighty) there can be no further question as to the identity of the two.
Sir Philip, who had held office, who had been decorated, and who in his later years was ambitious to obtain the governor-generalship of India, dared not confess that he was Junius.
It is also said that Francis must have been guilty of baseness if he wrote Junius, but, if that explains why he did not avow the authorship, it can be shown to constitute a moral impossibility only by an examination of his life.
