Topic: William Wilfred Sullivan


In the News (Tue 18 Nov 08)

  
 Prince Edward Island: Premiers Gallery, WILLIAM WILFRED SULLIVAN
In 1867, William Sullivan was called upon by the Government of the day to present the case of the tenants before the Land Commissioners Court.
Prior to entering the law profession, William Sullivan worked as a newspaper editor for the Charlottetown Herald and, as the newspapers of the day strongly supported one of the two political parties in the province, it was not long before Sullivan entered public life.
Sullivan was a strong Catholic and opposed the coalition of Premier L.H. Davies over the School question in the province.

 all things William
Every individual is, also, a point where systems intersect; systems which go through individuals, exist within them, but reach beyond their life and possess an independent existence and development of their own through the content, the values, the purpose, which is realized in them.
I like to think that this singular race of indomitable, philosophizing, poetical beings, resolute to carry the banner of Becoming to unimaginable heights, may be as interesting to the gods as they to us, and that they will stoop to admit these creatures of promise into their divine society.
Speak the truth by all means; be bold and fearless in your rebuke of error, and in your keener rebuke of wrongdoing; but be human, and loving, and gentle, and brotherly the while.

 WmJones
Wilfred Turnbull, fluent in the Ilongot dialect, questioned Jones' actions, and explained that an initial batch of rafts were constructed but were washed away by a rising river, confirmed by Jones' diary (Jones 1907-09, IX: 52).
According to Sullivan, Worcester was only concerned with tribal people to the extent that they could be used politically in campaigns against independence and to preserve their lands from Filipino settlement but at the same time make them available for American investment and to enrich himself in the process.
This is a story that is about the enigma of William Jones, the man. In spite of his impressive accomplishments in academia and in his field research in Indian folklore and linguistics, William Jones began to experience some sense of powerlessness after completing his doctoral work.

 Journey of a Family: Chapter 12
It is no exaggeration to say that the Reverend Wilfred Sullivan was the main drive behind the establishment of the preschool.
At the 1990 Diocesan Synod William Pike was appointed Regional Dean of d1e North Vancouver Deanery and insta1l~d for a second term at the 1992 Synod.
In September William voiced the feelings of the parish when he acknowledged the service of Nancy McColl who was leaving her job as church secretary after five years.

 [No title]
As a work of this class, sewn together to meet the demands of its star participants, Sullivan's offering was not expected to be very remarkable, nor to last very long in the repertoire; but the scanty reports in the press remarked on its freshness, melody, scoring and general evidences of talent to be encouraged.
Future performances then became unlikely as Sullivan began to dip into it as a source for individual items in later works - though how many these were only recently became clear, in the course of reconstructing the original ballet for performance at the 1990 Sullivan Society Festival.
Sullivan, writing thirty-five years later, has presumably remembered how the change in tempo was interpreted, one bar of 'cello equal to two of gentle full strings going before.

 Poets
In the running with Wilfred Owen for the title of greatest of the Great War poets, Isaac Rosenberg is distinguished from the other war poets by the fact that he was both Jewish (as was Siegfried Sassoon) and an enlisted man (as was Ivor Gurney and David Jones).
Robert Graves said that Charles Sorley was one of the three (along with Wilfred Owen and Isaac Rosenberg) truly great poets of the war (in fact, Graves wrote a poem entitled "Sorley's Weather").
Sorley enlisted in 1914, was commissioned in 1915, and as a Captain was killed at the Battle of Loos on October 13th, 1915, at the age of 20.

He articled in law with a Charlottetown firm, and upon admission to the bar in 1873 he formed a partnership with Edward Jarvis Hodgson, with whom he would practise for some time before joining the firm of McLeod, Morson, and McQuarrie in the 1880s.
Sullivan’s caucus had dissidents who opposed the reformist legislation passed particularly in the government’s first and second sessions, but McLeod does not appear to have been one of them.
      On 19 Nov. 1889 Sullivan resigned and McLeod was sworn in as premier.

 all things William
If this life be not a real fight, in which something is eternally gained for the universe by success, it is not better than a game of private theatricals from which one may withdraw at will.
Life is a brief, small and transitory phenomenon in an obscure corner, not at all the sort of thing that one would make a fuss about if one were not personally concerned.
When all is done, human life is, at the greatest and the best, but like a froward child, that must be played with and humoured a little to keep it quiet till it falls asleep, and then the care is over.

William Pike became rector on September 1, 1987 and was inducted by Archbishop Douglas Hambidge on September 9th.
However, some time before William's arrival Brenda Stenson and Sharyn Thomson saw the need for some means of better communication and pastoral care in the parish and so devised the concept of the neighbourhood groups.
William, Wilfred and a number of parishioners talked about the parish and as well as participating in the service viewers were able to "drop in" at the Holly Fair that took place at the time of the taping.

 Missed Connections - William Maxwell
Nearly all of William Maxwell's novels explore the world of children and the disruption of the nuclear family.
The epigraph from William Butler Yeats identifies Elizabeth as the novel's central figure, and describes her function in the family:
Richard Sullivan also noted that the rather mundane events of the novel are parts of everyday life, and not significant in themselves, but only in Maxwell's treatment (CLC 306).

 Gilbert and Sullivan Collection - Home Page
The Gilbert and Sullivan Collection is the largest and most comprehensive collection devoted to the lives and works of the Victorian composer Sir Arthur Seymour Sullivan (1842-1900), and his collaborator, the dramatist Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836-1911).
The collection is intended to serve not only as an archive, a repository for preserving all genres of original material relating to Gilbert and Sullivan, but also as a center for the research and documentation of their personal and professional lives, especially of the bibliographic history of the printed editions of their works.
Although, at first, the scope of the collection was limited solely to the Gilbert and Sullivan operas, for many years it has included as well the lives and all of the works of Gilbert and Sullivan in their every manifestation.

 The Monticue   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
A William Monticue emigrated to the States to Philadelphia around 1817, but upon closer inspection I'm not so sure he is our William, this one stated he was from England and not France and there was something else that didn't fit but I can't remember now off the top of my head.
William, Martha's first son by William Lewis Monticue was born in 1838, so it seems almost certain that she met William Lewis in the Pasquotank area before moving to Guilford County in 1837.
Her son William is a few/several doors down living with is wife Nancy, and Jesse and David Monticue his younger brothers are living with them as "farm laborers".

 William Butler Yeats Collection
William Butler Yeats (1865-1939) was born in Dublin, Ireland, the eldest of four children born to Susan Pollexfen and John Butler Yeats.
His artistic talent proved to be as indifferent as his scholarship, but he came away from the experience with a lifelong friend in his fellow student George William Russell.
Letters to Yeats are grouped together in a single folder and a lively correspondence between Yeats and Thomas Sturge Moore carried out between 1901 and 1936, is present at the end of the series.
