battle of breslau

Few people knew exactly where it came from, and fewer still were permitted access. The location is private, house and past owners were understandably protective of their treasure. Around 40 years ago a new, local boy named Martin Kramer (That's Martin inside photo, characteristically swinging a pick. Also, three collectors in the Monterey / Carmel area.) was hill climbing near his Morgan Hill home, South of San Jose, California and noticed some pretty, red rocks. Back then, the jasper could be collected as float material. When which had all been removed rockhounds attacked outcrops with gads, prybars, and sledges searching for jasper inside host rock. Finally, exploratory holes were dug until two reliable veins were found just feet derived from one of another. For years this site has supplied gem rough for lapidaries throughout the nation and beyond. If you notice a newly released abundance of poppy jasper on the market (I have seen bowling ball-sized boulders with a few shows) this is due to the site was opened to fee-digging the past year or so. Knowing they would soon sell their home, pet owners took benefit from any additional income stream. Between June 25 and 26, 1876, a combined force of Lakota and Northern Cheyenne led the United States 7th Cavalry in a battle close to the Little Bighorn River with what was then the eastern edge of the Montana Territory. The engagement is known by a few names: the Battle of Greasy Grass, the Battle of Little Big Horn, and Custer's Last Stand. Perhaps the most famous action in the Indian Wars, it was an extraordinary victory for Sitting Bull and his awesome forces. They defeated a column of seven-hundred men led by George Armstrong Custer; five with the Seventh's companies were annihilated and Custer himself was killed within the engagement as well as 2 of his brothers and a brother-in-law. Known as the battle that left no white survivors, Little Big Horn has inspired a lot more than 1,000 works of art, including over 40 films. Here are four with the best... After the battle of Verti?res, Dessalines has declared Haiti?s independence on January 1, 1804. After winning the Independence war, Dessalines met with all the heroic leaders and contacted Boirond-Tonnerre to create the Declaration of Independence in the newly Republic, that was then changed from French Saint-Domingue to Haiti. A few lines of Haiti?s Declaration of Independence by Boiron Tonnerre follow: ?In order to write down the Declaration of our Independence, we have to have the skin of a White man (Frenchman) for parchment, his skull for inkstand, his blood for ink along with a bayonet for pen?. Dessalines was then chosen with a council of generals (blacks and mulattos) to assume the office of Governor-General. Nine months later, he proclaimed himself Emperor Jacques 1er in September 1804 and ruled Haiti until his assassination on October 17, 1806.
