May, Sam[ue]l J., letter, Syracuse, [N.Y.], March 9, 1855, to "Uncle Peter " [Peter Still]:
No full textThe Rev. Samuel J. May acknowledges the receipt of Peter Still’s recent letter, which contained news that Still’s family will be provided for; indicates that Mrs. Reynolds is sure that her daughter, Mrs. Emily Pickard, would write Still’s narrative; opines that information about Seth Conklin’s life should be included in the volume, even if Dr. Furness publishes his own account of Conklin; suggests a title for the work about the Stills; advises Still to talk with the Rev. Furness about his Conklin essay before coming (to New York state) to confer with Mrs. Pickard; and proposes that Still avoid taking his formerly enslaved children from place to place to show them off, as it would not be good for them

May, Samuel J., letter, Syracuse, [N.Y.], August 9, 1853, to Peter Still, Boston (2 p.)
No full textThe Rev. Samuel J. May acknowledges the receipt of Peter Still’s letter sent from New Bedford, Mass.; relates that the price of slaves is now such that 5,000 dollars, not 3,000 dollars, likely will be needed to purchase the freedom of Still's family (but encourages Still to continue fundraising nonetheless); states that he has not heard any news from Alabama through either Mr. Birney in Philadelphia or Mrs. Pickard; and notes that he is returning Dr. Furness’ Seth Conklin narrative (via his son, John Edward May, who is traveling to Boston to give it to William Lloyd Garrison)
The piano music of Peter Klatzow : a stylistic analysis of selected works
No full textThe piano music of Peter James Leonard Klatzow forms an integral part of his musical output. An analysis of these works may provide useful insight into the compositional style of this South African composer. Jan LaRue's theory of stylistic analysis formed the inspiration for the analytical approach of the thesis, and the main focus of this analysis is the 1994 composition, From the Poets. This work is analysed in terms of use of sound, harmony and melody in order to attempt an understanding of how these elements impact and contribute to the sense of structure. Other works that have been completed since 1980 are analysed in terms of the main motivic and harmonic material, with occasional reference to other musical parameters that are important for an understanding of the musical discourse

May, Samuel J., letter, Syracuse, [N.Y.], February 28, 1861, to "Uncle Peter" [Peter Still]
No full textThe Rev. Samuel J. May explains to Peter Still the circumstances, as he has been able to ascertain them, of the sale of the copyright and stereotype plates of Still's published narrative (after the bankruptcy of the publisher), which went first to Still’s friend Mr. Parrish and then to a Mr. Jones of London; indicates his resulting conclusion that Mrs. Pickard was not at fault for what happened to the plates, despite Still’s perception; presumes that printing in London is cheaper than in New York, so that for Still to purchase an edition of the book now would likely not be more expensive than formerly; provides advice regarding Still’s dispute with a Mr. Smith over the price of Still's house and land, suggesting that “three good men” be selected to act as arbitrators; and notes in a postscript that he recently visited Catharine [Still], who is unhappy with her situation at the Onondaga Academy, as she “thinks she does not receive as much instruction as she ought to.

Synthesis and Characterization of Photoswitchable Fluorescent SiO2 Nanoparticles
No full textMay F, Peter M, Hütten A, Prodi L, Mattay J. Synthesis and Characterization of Photoswitchable Fluorescent SiO2 Nanoparticles. Chemistry. 2012;18(3):814-821.Switchable fluorescent silica nanoparticles have been prepared by covalently incorporating a fluorophore and a photochromic compound inside the particle core. The fluorescence can be switched reversibly between an on- and off-state via energy transfer. The particles were synthesized using different amounts of the photoswitchable compound (spiropyran) and the fluorophore (rhodamine B) in a size distribution between 98 and 140 nm and were characterized in terms of size, switching properties, and fluorescence efficiency by TEM, and UV\Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy
