Database for: Excavations at Tall Jawa, Jordan: Volume 3, The Iron Age Pottery
No full textThis is a Microsoft Access database of imagery, drawings, and photos accompanying Excavations at Tall Jawa, Jordan: Volume 3, The Iron Age Pottery by P.M. Michèle Daviau. The text and database present a detailed typology of the Iron Age pottery excavated from 1989 to 1995. Together, they represent an in-depth analysis of the forming techniques employed to make each type of vessel from bowls to colanders, cooking pots to pithoi.
The digital archive is a work in progress by the author. The archive currently holds the collection for Excavation Field D. Upon completion, it will include seven collections, each one consisting of a database of diagnostic sherds and vessels as well as the images of these pots as .tiff files. Databases are related to excavation fields and are designed for meaningful searches: A, B, C-east, C-west, A-east (associated with C-west), D and E
Letter to Sallie Clark
No full textPreaching update, fixing things around the houseLancaster Texas.
11 P.M. July 24th, 1872.
My Dear Wife,
I am just returned from preaching and write you a few lines. I perhaps did not tell you that Bro. Jackson left an appointment here for me. We drove very hard, it being 40 miles from there here, and arrived at dark. There was a full house and very respectful and intelligent people.
I could not get my mind to act on any subject but home all day, and expected to make a poor effort; but I do not think I ever did better in my life.
I was a saddened, and I hope a better man. Sallie you must pray for me; I am too careless of your wishes and feelings. You know, however, Sallie, that it is not because I don’t love you better than all besides. I will improve in this direction by God’s help and yours. I may get home before I go to the meeting near Waxahachie on the 2nd Lords Day, but do not look for me, but rest assured that if I can I will if it is only to kiss you all and come back immediately.
If you wish to have the floor fixed while I am gone tell Ran to get Bro. Gain or Jno. Living to fix it. Tell father I expect he will have to go alone to Hood County for I think I will remain at home when I get back.
Sallie be cheerful, write immediately don’t wait to get this. Tell me whether Mary came, Does Perry attend to things? don’t hesitate to tell him to do anything you wish done.
I must go to bed Sallie, for we must start early in the morning. We will be loaded and cant travel fast.
Kiss the dear ones.
Good night,
A. Clark

Aug. 15, 1880.
My dear sweet wife:
It is now half past ten, but I do not feel like lying down till I talk a little while with my wife, with that dear one who seems to night a part of my being. Today has been a busy one. Preaching at 11, at 3 p.m., baptizing at 4pm, preaching tonight. I talked tonight on the cost and worth of being a Christian. I was in a happy mood and made a feeling talk. Six young men came forward at conclusion and made confession of sin. They had been out of duty. I rejoice as much at their coming as I would had they come to confess Jesus. I expected to close the meeting tonight and spend a few days at the home of Chas. Dunn, but the interest is so good and the rain has so interfered with the meeting, that I am persuaded to continue a few days longer. The brethren are so anxious, that I cant refuse them. We have had eleven by baptism, and several reclaimed. The Lord is blessing our labors. The brethren and sisters here are so devoted to me that I almost fear that I shall become vain. May our Father keep me humble. Now, sweet wife, good night. I do you love you so much.
Love to all,
A. Clark
Dear Sallie:
I send you five dollars. Our meeting will close tomorrow night. The brethren will not let me go as long as they can possibly keep me. Seventeen have been baptized, or will be with three to day. A very happy meeting this has been. Send the accompanying article to Thos. Your card of the 12th came yesterday. Glad that you have some help. Hope that he will be of service to you. I am getting a little homesick. I do hope that sister is improving all right, and is by this time entirely well.
Love to all,
A.C.

Letter to Bessie Clark
No full textPersonal updateFt. W. Dec. 10, 1910.
Dear Bessie:
All sorts of bad luck this morning. Had to wait hurriedly at Dallas- then missed train here, and will not get to M.W. till 6 P.M. I had my eve. coat? in my grip in few feet of me as I bought my ticket at D – and a crook slip it off as soon as I turned my back. It had some valuable articles in the pocket. It was a coat I bought at San Diego, and prized it highly for that reason – a good light one that would have served me several winters yet. Am exceedingly anxious to hear from Roy. This bad weather will be hard on Z.
Love,
A.C

No full textDescribing a dispute with Zemmie and Roy. Money in AmarilloBloomsbury, Pa. 5/26/07
Dear P.
I have been staying in all day. Could not sleep last night for some reason. Went fishing yesterday p.m. with Prof. Goodwin down to the river. We caught enough for our supper and had them cooked down town. It was 9 o’clock before we sat down to supper and perhaps all this together made me wakeful. And besides a letter from Roy yesterday has disturbed me. It seems that we cannot get along in the best of feeling with our partnership financial undertakings at Amarillo. I have just written him and made a proposition by which I am let entirely out. Indeed it seems to me that his and Z’s ethical viewpoint has become warped and we have been in danger of becoming involved in a dispute aroused. But it will be avoided by my getting out in time. Am I wrong in thinking that brother’s and sister ought not to make a profit off of each other. Roy paid 600.00 and seems to think that is entirely equitable. Z. paid 1800.00 on a deal where I furnish the money to put up the houses on them. My judgement may be entirely at error, but I am sorry to see her and Roy becoming so sordid and money mad. The finer aspects of life are apt to become obscured. Do not say anything of this to them. I am going to get all my money back and leave them to row their own boat.
I hope that we can take trip as you have planned it. I shall go by Chicago and directly from there to Comanche. The point that concerns me now is should I make so expensive a trip. It will cost me about $200.00 atleast it cost that last summer and is not likely to be less. Still I need to see you and the M. and need the outing and so do not see how I can forego the pleasure.
I went fishing twice last week and caught something each time. I am going to get a pair of rubber boots and be prepared to fish right. One can then pitch out and wade without getting wet. I am glad that you are to spend most of the summer at one place and so not have to hold many meetings. It will be so much easier and more enjoyable. Roy tells me that the M’s asthma does not leave her. That climate is likely to prove not good for it either.
Love to you,
Carlto

Reel 01: Tests of Liquid-Propellant Rockets by Dr. Robert H. Goddard, at Auburn Mass., 1926-1928
No full textThe Goddard Rocket Film Reels consists of twelve four-hundred-foot 16mm black-and-white film reels documenting Robert Goddard\u27s experimental work with rockets in Auburn, Massachusetts, Roswell, New Mexico, and Annapolis, Maryland from 1926 through 1945. These reels were restruck in the mid-1960s, which were then digitized several years ago. Some, and very likely all, of these home movies were shot by Robert\u27s wife Esther C. Goddard. Reel 1 depicts experiments and/or tests with liquid-propellant rockets in Auburn, Massachusetts from March 1926 to February 1928. This reel contains footage from the day of the landmark March 16, 1926 flight, but the intertitles narrate that the actual flight was not photographed probably due to fright of operator . Other sources claim that Esther ran out of film that day. This list of intertitles gives a detailed account of the footage contained in this reel: (00:10) R.H. Goddard with Aluminum Covered Rocket at Clark University Physics Laboratory, March 1926 (00:26) Outdoor test, March 8, 1926, at the Ward Farm, Auburn, Mass. (00:40) Test giving first flight with a rocket using liquid propellants, March 16, 1926, Auburn, Mass. Actual flight was no photographed, probably due to fright of operator. Dr. Goddard stands happily beside the empty launching frame. (01:04) Two Test Runs, April 1926 (01:31) Tests with new model, having combustion chamber and nozzle at bottom instead of top, May 1926 (01:59) Tests of much larger model in new permanent launching tower, January - August 1927. Note turntable for rotation. Lift was unsatisfactory. Grass fires were frequent. (03:03 to end of video) Return to medium-sized model, September 1927 - February 1928. Henry Sachs, machinist, and P.M. Roope assisted at tests. Note gradual improvement of combustio
