Aloha Eagles Papers, 1966-1977
Full text linkThe Aloha Eagles Papers document her long and distinguished career as a state legislator, serving in the N.D. House of Representatives from 1967 to 1985 and her active support of women's issues.

Ask, seek, knock by Samuel Eagles' band Spirit [Album]
No full textIncreasingly incandescent across the London jazz, funk and world music scenes, alto saxophonist and composer Samuel Eagles announces his debut Whirlwind release 'Ask, Seek, Knock' with his band, Spirit (saxophonist Duncan Eagles, pianist Sam Leak, vibraphonist Ralph Wyld, double bassist Max Luthert and drummer Dave Hamblett), breathing life into eight, expansive, original compositions.
Eagles' solo debut of 2014, 'Next Beginning', plus subsequent appearances on studio recordings with other artists, provided the swift impetus to a professional career which had its roots set at the Royal Academy of Music and then nurtured at Trinity College of Music. The saxophonist was mentored and educated by musical luminaries Mornington Lockett and Jean Toussaint, so it's entirely appropriate that Toussaint augments the personnel here by guesting on two numbers with customary flair.
Pairing alto and tenor saxes upfront, as well as overlaying the differing timbres of piano and vibes, affirms the richness of Eagles' writing. His ear for textural combinations and strong, melodious riffs can be heard in the steadfast buoyancy of "Eternity Within My Soul", which teems with improvisational character, and in the searching serenity of "Changed, Changing Still", enhanced by Ralph Wyld's sustained vibes and the lucid double bass expression of Max Luthert.
Beauty, light and courage are symbolized in resolute 'Dreams and Visions of The Son', including a lush, prismatic tenor spotlight from Jean Toussaint and "Hear His Voice" sparks lively, modal conversation between Toussaint and Samuel Eagles, bolstered by the robust rhythms of Luthert and Dave Hamblett.
Personnel: Samuel Eagles (alto saxophone), Duncan Eagles (tenor saxophone), Jean Toussaint (tenor saxophone - 3, 6,), Sam Leak (piano), Ralph Wyld (vibraphone), Dave Hamblett (drums)

Moneta Eagles: Theme and Variations - Passacaglia (1948-49)
No full textThe title page implies that Moneta Eagles (b. 1924) wasn't certain whether she should call the work 'Theme and Variations' or 'Passacaglia'. In truth, it draws upon characteristics of both, yet is closer to the latter. The piece consists of an eight-bar theme, set out like a ground bass, followed by seven variations, which become increasingly more dense and dramatic, and which end in a grandiose reiteration of the opening idea. Eagles, after winning a number of prizes and commissions in the concert music world (including an important prize for her Sonatina for Piano), moved increasingly towards composing music for films. This student work is therefore an interesting indication of what might have been
Cape Fear River - Eagles Island.
No full textA freighter passes Eagles Island.
Eagles Island is located on the west bank of the Cape Fear River, directly opposite downtown Wilmington. The seven mile long island was named for Richard Eagles, a native of Bristol, England, who was granted a part of the island by King George II in 1737. Eagles purchased additional tracts on the island in 1738 and 1739. The causeway was begun in 1764 by Colonel William Dry, Collector of Customs for the port of Brunswick. Dry used ballast from ships, coming into the ports of Wilmington and Brunswick as a foundation for the causeway, which was finished in 1791. Among the dirt ballast of the foreign ships were seeds from many different countries. These seeds often took root; therefore, growing wild along the causeway are many plants that are not native to the lower Cape Fear. During the nineteenth century, it was an important center of the local naval stores industry and was also the western terminus of the Cape Fear River ferry. The causeway island allowed vehicular traffic to drive to the river
