	WILLIAM CROSSING (1847-)
		William CROSSING comes of an ancient family, members of which were mayors and bailiffs of Exeter during several reigns (from 1594 downward), according to IZACKE, WESTCOTE and RISDON.
		CROSSING was always quick at 'throwing off' doggerel, and has frequently improvised a rhyming account of the day's doings, for the amusement of any company in which he happened to be, when seated round the peat-piled hearth on the Moor.
		Crossing is a great lover of books, and despite the troubles and difficulties of life (of which he has had a full share), he says that in the company of his books he never feels dull - they are his constant companions.

	exploration – crossing the blue mountains - atmitchell
		Attempts to cross the mountains lying to the west of Sydney had been made from 1790, by convicts seeking a way of escape and adventurers keen to explore the region.
		William Charles Wentworth (1790-1872), son of D’Arcy Wentworth, was a currency lad (locally-born European).
		All three explorers kept journals, each in their own style – Blaxland published his well known account in 1823 and Wentworth wrote enthusiastically about the landscape, resources and future benefits to the colony but, for those seeking to retrace the explorers’ trail, Lawson’s journal could be regarded as the most important.

		William’s military exploits since his accession in 1047, meant that he and his followers were battle-hardened veterans by the time of the Conquest.
		If William did intend to conquer England then the events would appear to suggest an alliance or understanding with Harald Hardrada and Tostig or at least prior knowledge of their invasion and it is here that we need to look for evidence.
		William’s successful and unopposed landing on the south coast of England was the result of good planning but the subsequent Norman Conquest of England was undoubtedly due to good luck.

	The Ranch at Little Arkansas Crossing by Louise Barry, Autumn 1972, Kansas Historical Quarterly
		But the "associates" probably included William D. Wheeler (who soon became the dominant figure at Little Arkansas ranch), as well as Asahel Beach and son Abijah (who, in the late fall of 1858, separated from the group and established themselves at Cow creek, 18 miles to the west).
		The territorial legislature in February, 1859, authorized William T. Williamson, Columbus Hornsby, Thomas Lounds, and James C. Horton to "establish a bridge across Little Arkansas river where Santa Fe road crosses it." There is no evidence these men made use of their charter, though they may have operated a ferry, briefly.
		The stone corrals originally built by William Wheeler in 1859(?), and remodeled by Theodore Sternberg in 1870, presented a landmark of some prominence to the settlers who began arriving in Rice county in 1871.

	School Bus Fleet Magazine Forums - Child Found asleep on bus.
		Securing the bus and the bus driver crossing kids, when the parent is not there, does sound scary indeed, especially on school buses with defiant out-of-control children on-board and bus drivers with no authority to deal effectively with those children.
		I would have done so even if the bus had students on it as they know I wouldn't tolerate any misbehavior while I was off the bus crossing her, and I will not let students cross a busy highway on their own.
		If you can't arrange your bus routes so that no one has to cross on busy streets or highways (I'm sure it would be impossible in big cities, districts) then I don't haave a problem with bus drivers crossing the students.
