The Postcard
A postcard that was published by F. Frith & Co. Ltd. of Reigate. The card was posted in West Horsley using a halfpenny stamp on Thursday the 10th. August 1916. It was sent to:
Mr. S. G. Elliott,
J. Spicer & Sons Ltd.,
50, Upper Thames St.,
London.
The pencilled message on the divided back of the card was as follows:
"Having a grand time,
perfect weather.
I walked to Shere on
Monday, pity we took
the wrong road on the
Saturday as it is such a
beautiful walk from
here.
J.G.L."
The Sinking of the Kasagi
So what else happened on the day that the card was posted?
Well, on the 10th. August 1916, the Japanese cruiser Kasagi sank after running aground in the Tsugaru Strait.
The Battle of the Somme
Also on that day, the official British documentary propaganda film The Battle of the Somme premièred in London.
In the first six weeks of general release, 20 million people viewed it.
Addie L. Ballou
The 10th. August 1916 also marked the death of the American poet activist Addie L. Ballou.
Addie, who was born in 1838, was a leading advocate for women's suffrage, temperance and prison reform.
She was also the author of poetry collections Driftwood and The Padre’s Dream and Other Poems.
Charles Dawson
The day also marked the death of Charles Dawson, British amateur archaeologist.
Charles, who was born on the 11th. July 1864 in Preston, Lancashire, was charged with fraud on several archaeological discoveries including the Piltdown Man.
Charles was a British amateur archaeologist who claimed to have made a number of archaeological and palaeontological discoveries that were later exposed to be frauds. These forgeries included the Piltdown Man (Eoanthropus Dawsoni), a unique set of bones that he claimed to have found in 1912 in Sussex.
Many technological methods such as fluorine testing indicate that this discovery was a hoax, and Dawson, the only one with the skill and knowledge to generate this forgery, was a major suspect.
The eldest of three sons, Dawson moved with his family from Preston, Lancashire, to Hastings, Sussex, when he was still very young. He initially studied law, in order to become his father's apprentice, and then pursued a hobby of collecting and studying fossils.
Dawson made a number of seemingly important fossil finds. Amongst these were teeth from a previously unknown species of mammal, later named Plagiaulax Dawsoni in his honour.
Other Dawson discoveries were three new species of dinosaur, one later named Iguanodon Dawsoni; and a new form of fossil plant, Salaginella Dawsoni.
In appreciation for Charles' donation of fossils, the Natural History Museum awarded him the title of "Honorary Collector".
In 1885, he was elected a fellow of the Geological Society as a result of his numerous discoveries. He was then elected a fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London in 1895. He was now Charles Dawson F.G.S., F.S.A at the age of 31, without a university degree to his name.
-- Chales Dawson's Alleged Discoveries
In 1889, Dawson was a co-founder of the Hastings and St. Leonards Museum Association, one of the first voluntary museum friends' groups organised in Great Britain.
Dawson worked on a voluntary basis as a member of the Museum Committee, in charge of the acquisition of artifacts and historical documents.
His interest in archaeology developed, and he had an uncanny knack for making spectacular discoveries, leading The Sussex Daily News to name him the "Wizard of Sussex".
In 1893, Dawson investigated a curious flint mine full of prehistoric, Roman and medieval artifacts in the Lavant Caves, near Chichester, and probed two tunnels beneath Hastings Castle.
In the same year, he presented the British Museum with a Roman statuette from Beauport Park that was made, uniquely for the period, of cast iron. Other discoveries followed, including a strange form of hafted Neolithic stone axe and a well-preserved ancient timber boat.
Charles analysed ancient quarries, re-examined the Bayeux Tapestry, and produced the first conclusive study of Hastings Castle. He later found fake evidence for the final phases of Roman occupation in Britain at Pevensey Castle in Sussex.
Investigating unusual elements of the natural world, Dawson presented a petrified toad inside a flint nodule, discovered a large supply of natural gas at Heathfield in East Sussex, reported on a sea-serpent in the English Channel, observed a new species of human, and found a strange goldfish/carp hybrid.
It was even reported that he was experimenting with phosphorescent bullets as a hindrance to Zeppelin attacks on London during the Great War.
-- Piltdown Man
Dawson's most famous "find" was the 1912 discovery of the Piltdown Man, which was billed as the "missing link" between humans and other great apes. Following his death in 1916, no further "discoveries" were made at Piltdown.
Questions about the Piltdown find were raised from the beginning, first by Arthur Keith, but also by palaeontologists and anatomists from the United States and Europe.
Defence of the validity of the fossils was led by Arthur Smith Woodward at the Natural History Museum in London. The debate was rancorous at times, and the response to those disputing the finds often became personally abusive.
Challenges to Piltdown Man arose again in the 1920s, but were again dismissed.
-- Posthumous Analysis
In 1949, further questions were raised about the Piltdown Man and its authenticity, which led in 1953 to the conclusive demonstration that Piltdown was a hoax.
Since then, a number of Dawson's other finds have also been shown to be forged or planted.
In 2003, Miles Russell of Bournemouth University published the results of his investigation into Dawson's antiquarian collection, and concluded that at least 38 specimens were clear fakes.
Russell has noted that:
"Dawson's whole academic career appears
to have been one built upon deceit, sleight
of hand, fraud and deception, the ultimate
gain being international recognition."
Among these were the teeth of a reptile/mammal hybrid, Plagiaulax Dawsoni, purportedly "found" in 1891; the creature's teeth had been filed down in the same way that the teeth of Piltdown Man were to be some 20 years later).
Other 'finds' included:
-- The so-called "shadow figures" on the walls
of Hastings Castle
-- A unique hafted stone axe
-- The Bexhill boat (a hybrid seafaring vessel)
-- The Pevensey bricks (allegedly the latest
datable "finds" from Roman Britain)
-- The contents of the Lavant Caves (a fraudulent
"flint mine"
-- The Beauport Park "Roman" statuette (a
hybrid iron object)
-- The Bulverhythe hammer (shaped with an
iron knife in the same way as the Piltdown
elephant bone implement was later shaped)
-- A fraudulent "Chinese" bronze vase
-- The Brighton "toad in the hole" (a toad
entombed within a flint nodule)
-- The English Channel sea serpent
-- The Uckfield horseshoe (another hybrid
iron object)
-- The Lewes prick spur.
Of Dawson's antiquarian publications, most demonstrate evidence of plagiarism, or at least naive referencing. As Russell wrote:
"Piltdown was not a 'one-off' hoax,
more the culmination of a life's work."
Dawson claimed to have discovered a collection of fossils that had been dug up in Piltdown, Sussex, including an ape-like jawbone and a human-like skull.
However, after his death, it was proven that the remains were evidently forged. For years, the creator of these remains was unknown, though it was then determined, through a meticulous inspection of his finds and collections, that Charles Dawson was most likely responsible for this forgery.
-- Unmasking the Hoax
As more human fossils were discovered, it appeared that they had little in common with the Piltdown Man. The Piltdown Man was re-examined through new, rigorous technological methods which ultimately uncovered the hoax.
A fluoride-based test, a chemical test that dates fossils by the amount of fluorine that buried bones absorb from the soil, was used to date the Piltdown remains. This test, validated by a nitrogen-based test, dated the skull to not more than 50,000 years old, far more recent than Dawson proposed, and dated the jawbone to decades old.
This meant that the Piltdown Man could not have been an ancestor of modern humans. Furthermore, chemical tests displayed that the fossils had been artificially stained by iron and chromium to appear medieval.
Also, CT scans used to analyzed the inside of the bones indicated that many bones were loaded with gravel and were then sealed with putty.
Furthermore, X-rays indicate that the teeth have been flattened by filing or grinding in order to appear like human teeth.
Lastly, in 2016, a team of British researchers used DNA studies to provide added evidence for the provenance of Piltdown Man. It was determined that the Piltdown I jawbone and the Piltdown II molar tooth came from a single orangutan, and the cranial bones came from primitive humans.
Analyses of the material also exhibited the forger's lack of professional training, as the materials had fractured bones, putty that had set too fast, and cracked teeth.
-- Revealing the Forger
Most agree that the Piltdown Man was forged by a single individual, and that this was most probably Charles Dawson. Dawson was the suspected perpetrator in this hoax for many reasons.
First, Dawson had a previous history of deception: he was responsible for about 38 forgeries, he had plagiarized a historical account of Hastings Castle, and had pretended to act on behalf of the Sussex Archeological Society. However, most people were unaware of this.
Second, he was majorly involved in the Piltdown findings. He initiated the story of the Piltdown finds, and was the one who contacted Woodward about them. He was the sole person to have seen the Piltdown II site, and never disclosed the facts about this site.
Third, the fact that the techniques used to create both Piltdown I and Piltdown II were so similar suggests a single forger.
Fourth, Dawson was the only person present at every discovery; nothing was ever discovered at the site when he was not physically present, and no other fossils were subsequently found after he had died.
Fifth, not only did he have access to the museum and antiquarian shops that carried these objects, he was also a popular collector, a prolific networker, and knew what the British scientific community expected in a missing link between apes and humans.
It has been suggested that Dawson's motive for this forgery had been his strong desire for scientific recognition, and to join the archeological Royal Society.
Between 1883 and 1909, Dawson wrote 50 publications, though none were important enough to elevate his career. In 1909, he wrote a letter to Smith Woodward, with an unhappy heart, saying that he wanted to uncover a significant discovery, though he never seemed to come across one.
Just six weeks later, Dawson's wife wrote a letter to the Home Secretary, pleading on behalf of Dawson's expertise.
Sorrowful that he never unearthed a major discovery, he created the Piltdown Man which resulted in his election to the Royal Society.
Although there is not a substantial amount of evidence, many believe that he received aid from other experts such as Teilhard de Chardin, who worked with Dawson on early excavations, and Sir Arthur Smith Woodward, Keeper of the Department at the Natural History Museum, a friend of Dawson, and co-author of the announcement of Piltdown II.
-- The Death of Charles Dawson
Charles died at the young age of 52 from pernicious amaemia on the 10th. August 1916 in Lewes, Sussex. He died without receiving a knighthood.
John J. Loud
John J. Loud also died on that day.
John, who was born in 1844, was an American entrepreneur, and designer of the ballpoint pen.
Loud invented and obtained a patent for what is considered to be the first ballpoint pen in 1888; however, his invention was not commercialized, and the patent eventually lapsed.
The modern ballpoint pen was patented later in 1938 by László Bíró, 22 years after Loud's death.
Since László Bíró's patent, over 100 billion ballpoint pens have been sold worldwide. 100 billion pens laid end to end would form a line 15 million kilometres long; it would encircle the earth 374 times. That's a lot of pens!
The Postcard
A postcard that was published by George P. Cove's Library, Post Office, 20 Torwood Street, Torquay. The card was posted using a 1d. stamp on Thursday the 6th. July 1922. It was sent to:
Mr. Gordon Dewar,
3, Saxon Villas,
North Grove,
Hawkhurst,
Kent.
The message on the divided back of the card was as follows:
"Hope you are keeping
well & looking after
dear old Grandma.
Love to both from us
all,
Bruce."
William Schallert
So what else happened on the day that Bruce posted the card?
Well, the 6th. July 1922 marked the birth of William Schallert.
William Joseph Schallert was an American character actor who appeared in dozens of television shows and films over a career spanning more than 60 years.
He is known for his roles on Richard Diamond, Private Detective (1957–1959), Death Valley Days (1955–1962), and The Patty Duke Show (1963–1966).
-- William Schallert - The Early Years
William Schallert was born in Los Angeles, the son of Edwin Francis Schallert, a longtime drama critic for the Los Angeles Times, and Elza Emily Schallert (née Baumgarten), a magazine writer and radio host.
William began acting while a student at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) but left to become an Army Air Corps fighter pilot in World War II. He returned to UCLA after the war and graduated in 1946.
In 1946, he helped found the Circle Theatre, now known as El Centro Theatre, with Sydney Chaplin and several fellow students. In 1948, Schallert was directed by Sydney's father, Charlie Chaplin, in a staging of W. Somerset Maugham's Rain.
In 1949, Schallert served as the reciter in a concert performance of Arnold Schoenberg's Ode to Napoleon in celebration of the composer's 75th. birthday.
-- William Schallert's Career
Schallert appeared in supporting roles on numerous television programs starting in the early 1950's, including four episodes (and three different characters) in Dick Powell's Zane Grey Theatre between 1958 and 1961.
He was in three episodes of The Rifleman and four episodes of Gunsmoke. Schallert portrayed farmer Sam Becker in a 1961 episode of The Andy Griffith Show, whose newborn son is delivered by Andy. He appeared in The Partridge Family as a very humble folk-singing guitar player in "Stage Fright" in 1971. William appeared three times as Major Karl Richmond on NBC's Steve Canyon, starring Dean Fredericks in the title role.
Schallert also appeared in several films. He had roles in The Man from Planet X (1951) with Robert Clarke, The Tarnished Angels (1958) with Robert Stack, Blue Denim (1959) with Brandon deWilde, Pillow Talk (1959) with Doris Day and Rock Hudson, In The Heat Of The Night (1967) with Sidney Poitier, Speedway (1968) with Elvis Presley, The Jerk (1979) with Steve Martin, Teachers (1984) with Nick Nolte, and Innerspace (1987), in which he played Martin Short's doctor.
Among eight appearances on the western anthology series Death Valley Days, Schallert in 1955 portrayed American Civil War General Jesse Lee Reno in the episode "Reno." In the story line, two veterans of the Mexican War who served under Reno (played by Frank Griffin and Stanley Clements) honor him with the naming of the second-largest city in Nevada.
He appeared as Sam Clemens in a 1962 episode, "The $275,000 Sack of Flour."
William also appeared in an episode of the TV series In The Heat of The Night, where he portrays a husband who kills his terminally ill wife.
Schallert starred in Philbert, an innovative 1964 television pilot for ABC, which combined live-action camera work and animation. ABC backed out of the series shortly before full production was to begin, although the completed pilot was released in theaters by Warner Brothers.
Schallert was best known as Martin Lane on The Patty Duke Show.
He also appeared as a wise teacher, Mr. Leander Pomfritt, on The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis and as "The Admiral" on Get Smart. Schallert made three guest appearances on CBS's Perry Mason between 1957 and 1962, including the role of Donald Graves in the series' fifth episode "The Case of the Sulky Girl," as Dr. Bradbury in the 1961 episode "The Case of the Misguided Missile," and as Len Dykes in the 1962 episode "The Case of the Melancholy Marksman."
He played the role of Nilz Baris in the Star Trek episode "The Trouble with Tribbles"; and much later he portrayed Varani, a Bajoran musician, in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Sanctuary."
Schallert played the role of Carson Drew in the television series The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries (1977–1979), featuring Pamela Sue Martin as Nancy Drew.
In addition to his onscreen performances, Schallert did voice-over work for numerous television and radio commercials over the years. Among these was a recurring role as "Milton the Toaster" in animated commercials for Kellogg's Pop-Tarts.
He appeared in both the original film version of In the Heat of the Night (1967) and the later NBC TV version in 1992.
In 2004, TV Guide recognized Schallert's portrayal of Martin Lane on The Patty Duke Show as No. 39 on its list of "50 Greatest TV Dads."
-- William Schallert - The Later Years
Schallert served as president of the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) from 1979 to 1981, and afterwards remained active in SAG projects, including serving as a trustee of the SAG Pension and Health Plans since 1983, and of the Motion Picture and Television Fund since 1977.
During Schallert's tenure as SAG president, he founded the Committee for Performers with Disabilities, and in 1993 he was awarded the Ralph Morgan Award for service to the Guild.
Schallert continued to work steadily as an actor in later life, appearing in a 2007 episode of How I Met Your Mother, the HBO television film Recount (2008) as U.S. Supreme Court Associate Justice John Paul Stevens, and the HBO series True Blood.
William's distinctive voice brought him work for commercial and animation voiceovers.
Appearances in 2009 included a guest role on Desperate Housewives, in which he played the role of a small newspaper editor; he also appeared in an episode of According to Jim.
He appeared in the January 2010 pilot episode of The Deep End on ABC as a retiring CEO with Alzheimer's disease. He also made an appearance on Medium in 2010, and a cameo on the 2011 season premiere of True Blood as the mayor of Bon Temps. He played Max Devore in the A&E adaptation of Bag of Bones.
In 2010, Schallert made a series of public service announcement videos with Patty Duke and other castmates from The Patty Duke Show for the Social Security Administration.
William's last television appearance came in 2014 on an episode of the sitcom 2 Broke Girls.
-- William Schallert's Personal Life and Death
In a 2014 interview, Schallert said that he was suffering from peripheral neuropathy, forcing him to wear leg braces while effectively "confining" him to a wheelchair. He said about his condition and the leg braces:
"They help me stay balanced
if I use a walker, but it’s just
easier to get around in a
wheelchair."
While not ruling out working on stage in the future, he said:
"Working in film or TV would
be too difficult now. Besides,
I did my share!"
Schallert was married to actress Leah Waggner from 1949 until her death in 2015. She appeared with him in various shows, including episodes of The Patty Duke Show and The Dick Van Dyke Show.
William died on the 8th. May 2016, at his home in Pacific Palisades at the age of 93, six weeks after the death of his on-screen daughter Patty Duke, on the 29th. March.
Eleven Death Sentences in Soviet Russia
Also on the 6th. July 1922, 11 people in Soviet Russia were condemned to death for interfering with the state confiscation of church property.

Erykah Badu è nata come Erica Abi Wright a South Dallas, Texas, nel 1971. Il lavoro della madre, attrice, ha evidentemente avuto un impatto enorme sulla piccola Erykah, che a soli 4 anni era già su un palco del “Dallas Theatre Centre”; sempre grazie all'influenza materna la piccola Erica si cimenta nella pittura, nel canto e nella danza, sognando di seguire le orme dei suoi artisti preferiti: Stevie Wonder e Chaka Kan. Erykah cresce proprio quando avviene l'esplosione del fenomeno musicale dell'Hip Hop; così a 14 anni l'artista inizia a fare del free style per una radio locale chiamata "Knon", aiutata dal beat di un altro esordiente, il futuro trombettista Jazz Roy Hargrove, e decide di utilizzare un nome d'arte, considerando il suo nome originale come un nome da schiava. Erica diviene Erykah, utilizzando il suffisso "kah" "luce interiore", e come cognome prende Badu derivante dal fraseggio tipico del jazz ("ba-doo"); più tardi l'artista scoprirà che il termine Badu in arabo significa "verità e luce".
La musica di Erykah Badu è fortemente ispirata da r&b tradizionale, hip hop e jazz; alcuni definiscono il suo stile musicale Conscious Hip-hop, per via dei suoi testi incentrati su una filosofia urban molto personale e spesso caratterizzati da riflessioni politiche e sociali definite dai critici "mistiche" e di difficile interpretazione e che, a detta di molti critici, lanciano sfide emozionali agli ascoltatori. La critica la considera una delle personalità musicali più eclettiche e fantasiose del nuovo millennio, oltre che una delle più influenti artiste neo-soul degli ultimi quindici anni.

The Postcard
A postcard that was published by F.G.C.,R. The card was printed by M.&L. Ltd. of Glasgow and London.
The card was posted in Mortlake on the 13th. April 1907 to:
Miss N. Springham,
High Street,
Stanstead Abbotts,
Near Ware,
Herts.
The message on the back of the card was as follows:
"Mortlake.
Dear N,
Very pleased to have
P.C.
I thought that you had
quite forgotten me.
Remember me to your
mother.
With best love,
Your ever friend,
Mary".
HMS Invincible
So what else happened on the day that the card was posted?
Well, on the 13th. April 1907, HMS Invincible was launched by Lady Allendale on Tyneside.
On the 28th. December 1907, while still being fitted out, she was hit by the Swedish collier Oden, which resulted in the buckling of beams and frames in the hull and five bottom plates being stoved in.
HMS Invincible was the lead ship of her class of three battlecruisers built for the Royal Navy during the first decade of the twentieth century, and the first battlecruiser to be built by any country in the world.
The Battle of Heligoland Bight
During the First World War she participated in the Battle of Heligoland Bight in a minor role as she was the oldest and slowest of the British battlecruisers present. The ship engaged the German light cruiser Cöln, but did not hit her before Cöln was sunk by the battlecruiser Lion.
The Battle of the Falkland Islands
During the Battle of the Falkland Islands in 1914, Invincible and her sister Inflexible sank the armoured cruisers Scharnhorst and Gneisenau almost without loss to themselves, despite numerous hits by the German ships.
The Battle of Jutland
HMS Invincible was the flagship of the 3rd. Battlecruiser Squadron during the Battle of Jutland in 1916. The squadron had been detached from Admiral Beatty's Battlecruiser Fleet a few days before the battle for gunnery practice with the Grand Fleet, and acted as its heavy scouting force during the battle.
She was destroyed by a magazine explosion during the battle when the armour on one of her gun turrets was penetrated.

Isadora Duncan
So what else happened on the day that the card was posted?
Well, on the 19th. April 1913, the two children of dancer Isadora Duncan were killed in an automobile accident, shortly after having dined with her in Paris.
Deirdre Duncan aged 6, and Patrick Duncan aged 3, were drowned along with their governess, Annie Sim, when the car they were in rolled down a hill into the river Seine.
Duncan herself would be killed in a freak accident on September 14, 1927, while a passenger in an automobile.
Angela Isadora Duncan (born May 26, 1877) was an American dancer who performed to acclaim throughout Europe.
Born in California, she lived in Western Europe and the Soviet Union from the age of 22 until her death, when her long scarf became entangled in the wheels and axle of the car in which she was riding.
Duncan was cremated, and her ashes were placed next to those of her children in the columbarium at Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris.

If you would like to use the images for commercial purposes, please contact us and we can provide a High Quality Digital Image for a fee. If you are able to use the Low Resolution Image from the website please do, but we would appreciate a credit: Image from the Newcastle City Library Photographic Collection, Thank you.
