You might not want to pick a fight with this woman -- of any kind, at any time.
Mary Tuthill Kroeger Harrington was the mother of my two sons. We divorced in 1973, when the boys were very young. She went on to a fine career in midwifery, but died too soon (in 2004). She was a force at least as great as her older son (Doug, who fell to cancer in 2006), and the two of them will flicker around the two of us (Adam and me) as long as we live.
The Baker Mansion was originally home to ironmaster Elias Baker and his family. Baker purchased the nearby Alleghany Furnace in 1836 in partnership with his cousin Roland Diller. Elias brought his wife, Hetty, and their two sons, David Woods and Sylvester, from Lancaster County to what was described as a "tolerable good mansion house" near the furnace. Shortly after they arrived, a daughter, Anna, was born. A fourth child, Margaretta, was born in 1839, but she died of diphtheria at the age of two.
In 1844, Elias Baker bought out his cousin's share in the furnace. That same year, he contracted with Baltimore architect Robert Cary Long, Jr. to design him a new home. Work got underway on the mansion in 1845 but many problems and delays retarded its completion until 1849. The total cost was about $15,000. The cost overruns, coupled with falling prices for iron, pushed Mr. Baker to the brink of financial ruin before the home was finished. Still, Baker, ever the determined businessman, pressed ahead and achieved his dream house. He would enjoy it for fifteen years until his death in 1864. Hetty Baker remained a widow until her death in 1900.
David Woods Baker married Sarah Tuthill in 1851 and they had one daughter, Louise, in 1852. However, Woods was killed in a steamboat boiler explosion just two and a half weeks after the birth of his daughter. Louise later married Ernst Beckman and returned with him to live in his native Sweden. Sylvester and Anna both remained single and lived in the mansion until their deaths. After Anna died in 1914, the mansion was closed until 1922, when the Blair County Historical Society leased the building and opened it as a museum. With the community's support for a major fundraising campaign, the society was able to purchase the house in 1941. Since then, the mansion has served as the Society's headquarters and has become beloved community landmark.
In 2001, the Society completed an exterior rehabilitation, returning the building to its original appearance. Work has begun on interior rehabilitation. The project is financed in part from a state Redevelopment Assistance Capital grant and from local matching funds the Society is working to raise.

957 Private John Ronald Buckmaster, 16th. Platoon, 'D' Company, 11th. Battalion,
Australian Infantry, 1st. Division, Australian Imperial Force.
Born on 13th. September 1894 in Framlingham, Suffolk, one of four children of John and Emily Buckmaster of Framlingham. John attended school in Framlingham and worked labouring jobs on local farms.
He emigrated to Western Australia in 1913. There he worked as a scrub clearer at Wilberforce for the next 12 months.
Enlisting on 18th. August 1914 at Helena Vale, Western Australia where it was recorded that John was 5 ft. 9 in. tall of fair complexion. He trained at Blackboy Camp as an original member of 11th. Battalion.
He embarked for Europe aboard HMAT Ascanius from Fremantle on 2nd. November 1914, but the convoy was diverted to join troops of the 1st. Division for training in Egypt. On the morning of 25th. April 1915 John was among the first Australian troops to land on Gallipoli and spent the following four months fighting on the peninsula. In late August he came down with a serious case of influenza and was evacuated to a hospital in Malta and then to England.
John rejoined the 11th. Battalion in Egypt in January 1916.
In April the battalion redeployed to the Western Front and spent the following weeks in the relatively quiet 'nursery sector' in the area around Armentières.
In July troops of the 1st. Division were transported to the Somme. The 1st. Division was given the task of capturing the formidable German stronghold at Pozières, with the 11th. Battalion attacking from the south-west corner of the village.
Just hours before the attack was set to begin, German artillery fired on the Australian positions with high explosives and shrapnel and John was killed in action on Tuesday 25th. July 1916, aged 21.
A report from 4064 A.A. Lockhart states,
"We were in the line at Pozieres, there were three of us in the same area, Buckmaster was about 100 yards in front of me and a shell burst, killed him. This happened at daybreak. When I came back at 10 a.m. I saw his body laying where he had been killed. I do not know the place of burial".
At letter dated 16th. January 1917 from Capt. G.G. Campbell, 11th. Battalion reads,
"957 L/Cpl J.R. Buckmaster is posted as "Missing" but there is no doubt that he was killed and buried during an intense bombardment on 25.7.16."

Lt-Commander John Cyril Fitzrobert Borrett, HMS Invincible, Royal Navy.
Born on 13th. April 1883 at Preston, Lancashire, the youngest son of Major General Herbert Charles Borrett CB (1841 - 1917), King's Own Royal Lancaster Regiment, and Charlotte Anne Borrett, nee Bennett (1849 - 1931), of Lancaster Lodge, Reading, Berkshire.
Brother of Ann Laura (b. 1868), Herbert Percy (b. 1869), Charles Tuthill (b. 1871), Cecil Arthur (b. 1872), Thomas Lionel (b. 1873), Gertrude Holmes (B. 1876), Oswald Cuthbert (b. 1878), Harold Giles (b. 1881) and Constance Ivy Eleanor (b. 1886)
John was one of 61 candidates who were accepted for Naval Cadetships in the January 1898 intake term at H.M.S. Britannia. Following competitive examinations he obtained a scores of 1,892 marks, placing him 30th. of 61.
Between March 1912 and 15th. January 1914, he was in command of HMS Widgeon, a river gunboat that served on the China Station.
John was appointed to the battlecruiser HMS Invincible on 2nd. August 1914.
HMS Invincible was the lead ship of her class of three battlecruisers built for the Royal Navy during the first decade of the 20th. century and the first battlecruiser to be built by any country in the world. 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. During the Battle of the Falkland Islands, Invincible and her sister ship Inflexible sank the armoured cruisers Scharnhorst and Gneisenau almost without loss to themselves, despite numerous hits by the German ships.
On 31st. May 1916 she was Rear-Admiral Horace Hood's flagship of the 3rd. Battlecruiser Squadron during the Battle of Jutland.
At 18:21 Invincible turned south, the German Admiral Franz von Hipper's battlecruisers Lützow, Derfflinger and Seydlitz were 9,000 yards (8.2 km) away and Invincible, and her sister ships, Inflexible and Indomitable, almost immediately opened fire. Indomitable hit Derfflinger three times and Seydlitz once, while Lützow quickly took 10 hits from the battlecruiser HMS Lion, Inflexible and Invincible, including two hits below the waterline by Invincible that would ultimately doom her.
At 18:30 Invincible abruptly appeared as a clear target before Lützow and Derfflinger. The two German ships then fired three salvoes each at Invincible and sank her in 90 seconds. At least one 305 mm (12 in.) shell from the third salvo struck her midships 'Q' turret. The shell penetrated the front of 'Q' turret, blew off the roof and detonated the midships magazines, which blew Invincible in half. The explosion possibly ignited 'A' and 'X' magazines. Of her complement of 1,031 officers and men, 1,026 were killed, including Rear-Admiral Hood. The six survivors were picked up by the destroyer HMS Badger. Five of the six were stationed in the fore control top located on the tripod foremast.
Invincible sank in 180 ft. (55 m) of water in position 57°02′40″N 06°07′15″E.
John died on Wednesday 31st. May 1916, aged 33. He has no known grave and he is commemorated on Panel 11 of the Portsmouth Naval Memorial, Portsmouth, Hampshire.
Also commemorated on a personnel memorial in St. Peter's Church at Cransford.

How to identify the eclipsolunatic: One easily visible sign is that his hat may be on backwards. Not for style, but because it interferes with viewfinder work. Another telltale sign is wide open bug eyes. The eyes may be glazed, red, or downright smoking if he forgot to put the safety filter on. Retinal ghosting may have him stumbling around like a drunken fool. He might be a little crazy from the heat and/or "eclipse time crunch" stress. Stay well clear of this fellow.
The box on the front of my 300mm lens has only one layer of the denser Solar Skreen by Roger W. Tuthill. The optimal setup for this material is two layers: a dense one, and a not so dense one. Two layers helps block out the teeny holes that exist in each sheet. I only had one good piece left from my 1991 order. It works pretty good when the sun is slightly blocked by haze and the fstop is over 16. You may need to pan around to avoid lens flares from the holes. The Solar Screen is sandwiched between two layers of cardboard with a lens sized hole in the middle. That stack is taped on top of a Styrofoam block that also has a hole in it sized for the lens. The block assembly is covered in cardboard as well.
