	The Link Motion
		While employed there, a "gentleman apprentice" named William Williams suggested the use of two eccentrics mounted on the crankshaft of a steam engine as a means of reversal (fig 1), and showed a sketch of his idea to a number of his fellow employees including Howe, who always acknowledged this fact.
		Stephenson, through his works manager, instructed Howe to cease work on one of them and instead to have a full scale model of his own gear made in metal (which still exists), and fit a similar one to locomotive Number 71 (North Midland Railway Number 359).
		In 1842 William Howe did not possess the means to patent his invention, which almost immediately had world-wide application, although an improved form was patented in 1846 in the joint names of George Stephenson and William Howe.

	Sir William Stephenson (Intrepid) - The Churchill Centre

		Dr. Stephenson's book, the only full-length biography of Cotten, was based on interviews with her surviving relatives and associates, contemporary newspapers and several collections of unpublished papers in East Carolina Manuscript Collection, the Southern Historical Collection at UNC-Chapel Hill and the Virginia State Library.
		In the course of his research, Stephenson discovered a treasure trove of material in Minnesota; one of his subject's correspondents was former Union Army General and U.S. Agriculture Commissioner William G. LeDuc, whom she met on a train trip in 1894.
		Her ambition was hampered by the sheer weight of her responsibilites as a plantation wife and mother, Stephenson acknowledges, although she probably came as close to "having it all" (public career and family) as any other rural North Carolina woman could have in those days.

	State v. Stephenson (Summary Disposition Order) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		The defendant-appellant William Stephenson appeals from the first circuit court's judgment of conviction of and sentence for, inter alia, the offense of assault in the second degree, in violation of Hawai`i Revised Statutes (HRS) § 707-711(1)(a) (1993), filed on July 10, 2000.
		Stephenson's sole point of error on appeal is that the circuit court erred in failing to instruct the jury regarding an offense included within second degree assault, to wit, assault in the third degree, see HRS § 707-712(1)(a) (1993), for which Stephenson asserts there was a rational basis in the evidence adduced at trial.
		Any hypothetical error on the part of the circuit court in failing to instruct the jury with respect to third degree assault was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt, inasmuch as the jury convicted Stephenson as charged of second degree assault.
