    Stanley Matthews letter to Reuben Wood, March 23, 1852

    No full text
    Letter written to Governor Reuben Wood by Stanley Matthews in support of the appointment of Donn Piatt to a position in the Hamilton County Court of Common Pleas, March 23, 1852. Stanley Matthews (1824-1889) was at the time a judge in the court. He secured a seat in the Ohio Senate in 1856 before being appointed U.S. District Attorney for Southern Ohio in 1858, and later served as a justice of the U.S. Supreme Court from 1881 to 1889. Reuben Wood was governor of Ohio from 1850 through 1853, and was closely involved with the Peyton Polly case and attempts to secure the Polly family's release. Peyton Polly and his family were freedmen living in Lawrence County, Ohio, when they were kidnapped on June 6, 1850, and sold back into slavery in Kentucky and Virginia

    Disruption of the developmental programme of Trypanosoma brucei by genetic ablation of TbZFP1, a differentiation-enriched CCCH protein

    No full text
    The regulation of differentiation is particularly important in microbial eukaryotes that inhabit multiple environments. The parasite Trypanosoma brucei is an extreme example of this, requiring exquisite gene regulation during transmission from mammals to the tsetse fly vector. Unusually, trypanosomes rely almost exclusively on post-transcriptional mechanisms for regulated gene expression. Hence, RNA binding proteins are potentially of great significance in controlling stage-regulated processes. We have previously identified TbZFP1 as a trypanosome molecule transiently enriched during differentiation to tsetse midgut procyclic forms. This small protein (101 amino acids) contains the unusual CCCH zinc finger, an RNA binding motif. Here, we show that genetic ablation of TbZFP1 compromises repositioning of the mitochondrial genome, a specific event in the strictly regulated differentiation programme. Despite this, other events that occur both before and after this remain intact. Significantly, this phenotype correlates with the TbZFP1 expression profile during differentiation. This is the first genetic disruption of a developmental regulator in T. brucei. It demonstrates that programmed events in parasite development can be uncoupled at the molecular level. It also further supports the importance of CCCH proteins in key aspects of trypanosome cell function

    Documentation of Hezhen (Kile), a moribund Tungusic language: Methods and principles

    No full text
    Hezhen is a moribund language with less than 10 aged native speakers, but it has a comparatively rich documentary record. Such moribund languages deserve a high priority for documentation. One objective of this study is to establish a set of documentation methods and principles applicable to such languages based on the case of Hezhen. The discussion is mainly focused on sorting and evaluation of existing documents, recordings and analyses based on the moribund language, and provides processes, methods and principles of documentation for researchers, thus offering a working model of documentation. Existing documents here means those documents recorded in relatively constant and modern forms (such as audio recording, video, and transcripts in IPA, Pinyin or Chinese characters). These materials consist mainly of folk songs, oral literature and the author’s lexical field notes. This paper will be divided into two parts, covering technical processing, and selection/processing of content. With regard to technical processing, we will discuss the following questions: 1. Standardization of documentation format; 2. Construction of a corpus with part-of-speech tagging; 3. development of a concise multi-lingual Tungusic (Hezhen — Manchu — Sibe — Jurchen) glossary. In the case of Hezhen, each genre of literature (oral literature, folk songs and shaman blessings) shows distinct characteristics with respect to features such as vowel harmony, case forms, aspect, particles and word order. Regarding content selection, we will discuss the different functions and values of each genre, which include: 1. Basic vocabulary and Ancient Tungusic vowel harmony in Shaman blessings; 2. Classical grammar (such as: special particle usage, suffixes as aspect marker, special word orders) and prosodic change (stem and suffix change) in folk songs; 3. Modern grammar/phonology principles of Hezhen in oral literature; 4. Loanwords and their adaptation (such as lexicalization and phonological change) in each genre
