Bill O’Reilly: An awful, awful man

As Fox News last year was plowing through the sexual harassment scandal involving now-former network chief Roger Ailes, King of Cable News Bill O’Reilly couldn’t have been more dismissive of the victims. “In this country, every famous, powerful or wealthy person is a target. You’re a target,” O’Reilly said in a July appearance on “Late Night” with Seth Meyers. “I’m a target. Anytime somebody could come out and sue us, attack us, go to the press or anything like that. … I stand behind Roger 100 percent.”
Roger was the wrong man to stand behind.
Subsequent events would say why: An internal investigation of Fox News turned up a series of complaints regarding Ailes’s conduct toward women. Former host Gretchen Carlson, who kicked off all the action with a lawsuit against Ailes in early July, received a settlement worth $20 million plus a no-nonsense apology from Fox News’s parent company, 21st Century Fox. Ailes was ousted, though he denied the claims against him.
Months after lamenting his status as a “target,” we are learning that O’Reilly was speaking from deep experience. The New York Times reported on Saturday that about $13 million has been dished out over the years — by O’Reilly and his employer — to resolve complaints from women regarding O’Reilly’s antics. The claims shed light on just why O’Reilly and his former boss Ailes fashioned a mutual protection racket on the premises of Fox News: They both needed someone who’d have their back.
Reporting by the New York Times builds on an existing docket of allegations against O’Reilly. We already knew, for instance, that former producer Andrea Mackris had filed a sexual harassment suit against O’Reilly in 2004, alleging all manner of lurid conduct against the top host. She came away with a $9 million settlement, according to the Times. And news broke earlier this year that former employee Juliet Hud

Richmond Hill, Pocketbooks, 15th printing, march 1967 (1st published by William Morrow in 1941).
at rest in the kindling & beercan zone while awaiting being fed into the fire, its happenstance pairing with this particular empty tin struck me as perhaps more appropriate for this title than just seeing it go up in flames in that this is a novel seemingly written by someone with a hole in his head.
the sheer pointlessness of the plot is painful to attempt to construct any rationalization for but involves secret messages secreted in a tincan in a basement & for which there is no real necessity of such subterfuge.
besides the flaccid plot, what`s most galling about Gardner`s Perry Mason novels is his insistence on "action" words throughout: Mason never walks anywhere but will stride, dash, rush, hurl himself, etcet. likewise, he doesn`t just pick up the `phone but grabs it, throws open doors, races up & down stairs...is anything but flaccid (except with regard to his secretary, Della Street) & everything is on Rush Order: he`s a CanDoOnTheGoGuy & it`s only He that Can Do It.
but if he`s such a Hurrying Force Unto Himself, what the hell`s with his inability to dial a telephone, a chore seemingly beyond him that he always foists onto Della while he stands around waiting for the connection to go through?
it baffles me to try to imagine what publishers & readers found entertainable enough about this lawyer-to-the-underdogs to justify a whole string of 82 novels (plus short stories, plus a further batch of novels (of even more execrable quality) by Thomas Chastain after Gardner`s death), a radioplay program (1943-1955), television series (primarily with Raymond Burr, 1957-1966, & again with Monte Markham in 1973), some 25 films (with Burr back in the docket), comics (cowritten by Gardner), a whack of more recent "audiobooks" & a new (2o2o) HBO 8part extravanganza special with Matthew Rhys with little relation to the original besides the name & occupation of the titular character. no doubt there`s more spinoff that i`m missing.
Gardner`s posited goodguy trope is certainly unobjectionable but the writing itself is so hackneyed as to be actively infuriating (especially in his treatment of Della) & it`s not as though it gets any better over the course of the series (& takes a real dive with Chastain, who tries to write as shittily as Gardner but isn`t good enough to do so). the one thing i`ve found of extremely limited interest is the fact that Mason is something of a thug in some of the earliest novels (also a break&enter artist) but is reined in over time to mend his criminal ways & save his trickeries for the courtroom.
if only Gardner himself (on whom Mason is partly based) had stayed in the courtroom instead of taking up storytelling...

Greenville is a city in Bond County, Illinois, United States, 51 miles (82 km) east of St. Louis. The population as of the 2010 census was 7,000. It is the county seat of Bond County.
Greenville is part of the St. Louis Metropolitan Statistical Area. It is also considered part of the Metro East region of Illinois.
Greenville celebrated its Bicentennial in 2015 as one of the oldest communities in Illinois. It is home to Greenville University, the Richard Bock Museum, the American Farm Heritage Museum, the Armed Forces Museum and the Demoulin Museum and a federal prison, Federal Correctional Institution, Greenville (FCI Greenville). It is also home to internationally known companies, including Nevco Scoreboard, the largest privately owned scoreboard company in the world, and DeMoulin Brothers, the world's oldest and largest manufacturer of band uniforms.
Source: www.americanfarmheritagemuseum.com/about-us.html
The American Farm Heritage Museum was one man's dream. The Museum became a reality when a group of men, mostly farmers, sitting in coffee shop, talked about the dream of building a museum to preserve the farm heritage. Sixty farmers, collectors, and civic leaders held a meeting to share their ideas with the public in April of 2002. It was agreed that Bond County, being near the middle of the state and right along 1-70, would be the perfect place. Meetings were conducted, fundraisers were held, and ideas were passed around. In 2002 the land for the museum was acquired and a name for the museum was chosen.
The American Farm Heritage Museum would sit on seventeen acres, along the south side of interstate 70, just east of the Route 127 overpass. Its goal would be to promote and share the heritage of America's rural life: living, farming and travel. One very generous family purchased the land and leased it for ninety-nine years to the American Farm Heritage Museum, NFP organization. After a year of planning, the first 32'x64' building, with a gambrel roof, was completed. It was finished just days before the first Heritage Days Show in July 2004. This building, originally was to be a tractor maintenance shop, but later became known as the Lil' Red Barn Museum.
In the winter of 2005, owners of a truck terminal building in St. Louis gave the building to the Museum, if we took it down. Several members went to work and got the 200'x100' building moved and rebuilt. Since then other buildings and groups have been added to the show grounds.
We are growing with each passing year. Our Main building is the site of numerous events throughout the year. The Lil' Red Barn is a little piece of history, with collections of items from the past. In 2009 this building received the Illinois Governor's Home Town Award. The Tractor Shed displays different makes of tractors and tools of the past. Our Christmas building, which operates as a work shop and houses all the Christmas boxes for The Christmas Lights Wonderland, partners with The Lil' Red Barn, Railroad, Hill's Fort and the Armed Forces Museum to put on a spectacular Christmas display.
The American Heritage Railroad, established in 2003 is a division of the American Farm Heritage Museum. Many rail-enthusiast members realized as farms were connected by the American Railroad so should the Museum have an operating railroad for its historic value, as well as provide a fun ride for visitors. May 10, 2005 the railroad division was officially formed and an intensive search began to procure equipment. Many thousands of hours of volunteer labor, by friends of the railroad, have resulted in over a mile of 13" gauge track being laid, on the grounds. It is our desire to honor the great railroads that have served Bond County, such as the Vandalia, Nickel Plate, Pennsylvania and CB & Q. In 2005 the Ben Winter's Museum railroad was purchased which provided a G-15 diesel train set. The final move of the Ben Winter's railroad was completed in November, in three days with 20 volunteers, 9 trailers and one semi-truck. The collection has grown to include both diesel and steam engines and a variety of rolling stock. The railroad owns three steam locomotives. It is hoped the 1926 Wagner 4-4-2 steam engine will be ready for operation for the 2015 season.
2005 Hill's Fort also joined the Museum. Hill's Fort played an important part in the opening of Northwest Territory. Hill's Fort may have started as early as 1806 when early settlers first arrived. The Fort's location appears on an 1808 survey map by Capt. Isaac Hill, leader of a team commissioned by President Thomas Jefferson to survey the Illinois Territory. The Legislature fixed Hill's Fort as the temporary county seat. Earliest records are preserved from Hill's Fort and include court and marriage dockets. The Bond County seat was later moved to Perrysville and, in 1821 to Greenville, Illinois. No longer useful as a fort or county seat, Hill's Fort was abandoned and fell to ruin.
Following excruciating study of the original site, a replica of the Fort has been recreated on the grounds of the Farm Museum. It is open to the public on the 1st Saturday of the month from May through October and also open, for tours and special occasions. At Christmas time they are open Friday and Saturday nights for the Christmas lights. They dress in period dress and cook over the open fireplace in the cabin, and are eager to answer questions.
In 2012 The Armed Forces Museum, "Memories of Steel", joined our Museum. It maintains as its sole mission, to preserve these important pieces of military history. The Museum houses one of the largest collections of military vehicles in the County. It currently watches over approximately 15 privately-owned and 25 museum-owned vehicles. The members are involved in a program called "Living history" which furnishes displays of t1istoric vehicles and memorabilia and, works with re-enactors at civil events like Armed Forces Day and Veterans Day. Each of these vehicles has an historic story and plays a very important role in connecting us with the soldiers who lived and died in their service to the country.

Alexandra Sheldon ’09, a staff member at Trinity’s Dream Camp this summer, poses with eight-year-old students enjoying the “World Tour” program she leads. On the travel docket for the day: a virtual trip to Alaska, learning about Tlingit totem poles. Sheldon, who graduated from Trinity with a B.A. in medieval studies and archeology, recently received a master’s, with distinction, in medieval and renaissance studies from Durham University in England. “The brilliant professors in Classics and English at Trinity encouraged my desire to explore the esoteric and chase my archeological dreams, and I’m privileged to have the opportunity to kindle that same enthusiasm for learning in students at Dream Camp,” said Sheldon. In the fall, she will return to England to pursue a Ph.D. in history at Oxford University. Since graduating from Trinity, besides her graduate study and working with Dream Camp, Sheldon has taught in a YWCA before- and after-school enrichment program and catalogued a private library of 7,000-plus volumes.

Artist: Andrew Rowe
Location: Parc Penallta (near entrance)
There are a series of cor-ten steel artworks located near the entrance of the park. The idea for these artworks came from a site visit to the old colliery where a docket had been left and some of the pages had been ripped out and were blowing in the wind across the site. Rather than depicting names or figures as in the original document, local school children were involved in creating images on these 'pages' which tell the story of the park through children's eyes.

I attended the Barrett Jackson Spring 2025 Car Show at WestWorld in Scottsdale with my son.
This lift vendor is showcasing their lift with a 1932 Ford Hot Rod and a 1965 Shelby Cobra. Any help or correction with the identifications will be appreciated.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_Cobra
The AC Cobra, sold in the United States as the Shelby Cobra and AC Shelby Cobra, is a sports car manufactured by British company AC Cars, with a Ford V8 engine. It was produced intermittently in both the United Kingdom and later the United States since 1962.
Like many British manufacturers, AC Cars had been using the Bristol straight-6 engine in its small-volume production, including its AC Ace two-seater roadster. The Ace had a hand-built body with a steel tube frame, and aluminium body panels that were made using English wheeling machines. The engine was a pre-World War II design by BMWÂ which by the 1960s was considered dated. In 1961 Bristol decided to cease production of its engine.
In September 1961, Ford provided Shelby with two engines.
AC exported completed, painted, and trimmed cars (less engine and gearbox) to Shelby who then finished the cars in his workshop in Los Angeles by installing the engine and gearbox and correcting any bodywork flaws

The 1932 Ford became popular for street rod modification.

"Barrett-Jackson delivered many magical experiences for everyone who joined us in Scottsdale," said Steve Davis, president of Barrett-Jackson. "From the excitement of the auction block to the thrill rides, exhibits, STEM Fest and live music, there was truly something that everyone in the family could enjoy. We filled our docket with so much diversity that collectors from every walk of life found something they loved. We stay on top of the trends and consign the vehicles that people want, proving once again that the car collector hobby is thriving. Those trends include the growing popularity of Resto-Mods, SUVs and trucks, which are gaining momentum because they appeal to such a broad cross section of people. Iâm especially proud of our support for important charities again this year. We not only raised millions of dollars but also critical awareness that will help make a positive impact on so many communities."
www.classic-car-auctions.info/usa/scottsdale/2025-barrett...
In 2025, Barrett-Jackson earned $198 million by selling 2013 car lots and $5.2 million from 957 pieces of automobilia. A further $6.2 million was raised for charity.
The first production 2025 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 VIN001 achieved $3.7 million as a charity lot and the highest result at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale 2025 collector car auction in Arizona, USA. The most expensive regular lots were a 2023 Hennessey Venom F5 Roadster ($2,200,000) and a 2014 Pagani Huayra ($1,925,000). DJ Marshmello's 2020 Ford GT Liquid Carbon Special Edition achieved a strong $1,780,000.
The top four results at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale 2025 collector car auction were all for modern supercars. The top result was for charity (see below) while the most expensive regular car in the sale was for the nearly new 2023 Hennessy Venom F5 Roadster. This F5 Roadster was the second of only 30 produced and was sold with only 681 miles on the clock.

Arkansas' only brick courthouse/shithouse combination.
Until 1939 this was the Hempstead County, AR brick courthouse. Several years later the county, or someone, built the brick structure on the right here and filled it with restrooms.
Rumor has it that the honorable Judge Joseph Wapner began his illustrious career here in the early 1920s. On his retirement from the bench Judge Judith Sheindlin took over the docket.

Esta opinião não deve "constituir precedente ou vincular qualquer tribunal." Embora seja publicado na Internet, este parecer é vinculativo apenas para as partes no caso e seu uso em outros casos é limitado. R. 1: 36-3.
PER CURIAM.
A Requerente Kelly Ollivierre recorre do despacho de 12 de janeiro de 2017, após uma audiência de prova, na qual o juiz de primeira instância recusou-se a conceder quaisquer danos, pois concluiu que a demandante não havia investigado adequadamente o acidente ou a disponibilidade de seguro. Como descobrimos que o juiz não aplicou o padrão apropriado na condução de uma audiência de prova, anulamos a ordem e mandamos voltar para o processo.
Nós discernimos os fatos do testemunho apresentado na audiência de prova. Em um dia de neve em março de 2015, o autor ligou para o réu solicitando um táxi. Depois de entrar no táxi quando este chegou a sua casa, ela testemunhou que o veículo avançou e deu ré, batendo em um carro estacionado. Ela descreveu o impacto como "médio" e afirmou que seu corpo se moveu para frente, depois para trás, e seu pescoço estalou.
A Autora apresentou o laudo pericial do médico assistente. Sua revisão dos filmes de ressonância magnética cervical revelou várias hérnias e discos protuberantes em sua coluna cervical e um disco protuberante em sua coluna lombar. O médico opinou que seus ferimentos estavam causalmente relacionados ao acidente automobilístico e permanentes.
A Autora não possuía carro na época do acidente nem morava com alguém que tivesse seguro de automóvel. Ela apresentou contas médicas não pagas de $ 23.811,55. Ela também apresentou provas de citação da reclamação, entrada de inadimplência e agendamento da audiência de prova na United Taxi. O juiz reservou sua decisão.
Em 12 de janeiro de 2017, a juíza de primeira instância registrou sua decisão. Após uma revisão do testemunho factual e dos registros médicos, o juiz declarou:
Eu acho que há, neste caso, mais questões que permanecem sem resposta, o que impediria a provisão da tutela solicitada pelo demandante.
Nesse caso, não havia absolutamente nenhuma indicação nas evidências de qualquer tentativa do advogado de determinar a identidade do motorista da United Taxi [,]. . . se havia seguro, quem era o dono deste United Taxi, nem havia qualquer evidência de um boletim de ocorrência ou mesmo de uma investigação policial sobre o acidente ou a ocorrência deste acidente.
Este é simplesmente um caso em que a demandante indicou que ela se envolveu em um acidente de carro com um veículo estacionado.
O juiz reiterou que, porque não houve investigação sobre o acidente para corroborar o "testemunho do reclamante de que houve ... mesmo um acidente neste dia e nenhuma tentativa de determinar quem deveria ser responsabilizado por este acidente ... além da mera alegação pela demandante que ela ligou para a United Taxi e a United Taxi era a pessoa envolvida. "
A juíza afirmou ainda que encontrou uma discrepância entre os laudos de alta hospitalar e o laudo pericial. Ela declarou: "É difícil imaginar, nas circunstâncias [deste acidente], conforme descrito pelo querelante ... que haveria os ferimentos que ela alega."
O réu foi devidamente citado com a reclamação, bem como com o registro da inadimplência e data da audiência de prova. O réu optou por não se defender. Assim, as provas não contestadas apresentadas ao tribunal foram de que o autor era passageiro de automóvel que se acidentou com veículo estacionado. Após o acidente, a autora foi ao pronto-socorro e fez tratamento médico. Ela tinha queixas constantes de dor e contas médicas não pagas.

Ballantynes began trading in Christchurch in 1872, and has remained on site on Cashel Street since this date as a shopping destination in the city. In 1947 Ballantynes had 458 staff, and its premises were made up of eight buildings, joined by openings to make one establishment.
It was ‘Cup Week’ in Christchurch, bringing many visitors and a sense of festivity to the city, and on the afternoon of 18 November 1947 there were 432 members of staff and more than 250 customers in the store. Smoke was first observed coming from a basement at about 3.35pm. Staff attempted to locate the seat of the fire in order apply extinguishers but could not do so. Ballantynes’ staff gave evidence that three calls were made to the Fire Brigade, the first estimated to have been at about 3.39pm, however, the Fire Brigade had only two calls logged, the first at 3.46pm.
At about 4.10pm Kenneth Ballantyne, a senior manager, was rescued from the building, the last to leave alive; the extremely quick progress of the smoke and fire having left staff in the Millinery Workroom and the Accounts and Credit Office trapped. Many members of the public witnessed what quickly became an horrific scene as flashover occurred and the roof collapsed sending debris into the sky. Gordon Ogilvie in Ballantynes, the Story of Dunstable House 1854-2004, describes burnt remnants of dockets, accounts and other papers bearing the Ballantynes letterhead being carried South and South-West on the wind, landing in suburbs as far as 5km away.
Thirty-eight employees of Ballantynes, two auditors from the partnership of Stewart Beckett, and an employee of the College of Retailing Representatives died. Tragically, the assumption made at the onset of the disaster that the ‘cellar fire’ would be contained was to prove fateful; with no general order being given for the evacuation of staff, and the Fire Brigade initially arriving without the equipment or staff to deal with more than that prospect. Five days later, a public funeral was held in the Christchurch Cathedral and mourners filled the Square and lined the 6km procession route to the Ruru Lawn Cemetery.
The Royal Commission of Enquiry found that the Ballantynes management and the Fire Brigade did not take all steps reasonably possible to provide for the safety and escape of the staff and public. The cause of the fire was not established by the Commission, but it was concluded that the vertical and lateral openings in the building, the accumulation of inflammable gases allowed by the late call to the Fire Brigade, and the lack of effective action taken by the Fire Brigade upon their arrival, contributed to the rapid spread of the fire.
Ultimately, the Commission found New Zealand’s fire prevention protocols wanting and the fire service in need of investment. Its recommendations were for the Means of Egress Code to be made compulsory throughout the country, the immediate installation of fire-prevention devices and alarms, the institution of compulsory evacuation drills and Fire Prevention By-Laws, and a national training scheme for Fire Brigades.

"On the possibility of setting up a World War II memorial park in the city, Wee said the sensitivity of the people would be taken into consideration first.
“We don’t want to touch the sensitivity of the people particularly locals as they might still have painful memories of the Japanese occupation,” the mayor said.
“We have to be careful in our planning and how it is done. It might be a sensitive issue particularly to those directly involved in the war. Hence the need for a study.” "
"Other historical sites related to World War II in Miri were Lambir Hill National Park and a cemetery near St Columba’s kindergarten."
"For the older generation who lived through it, the Occupation has often been a source of embarrassment, when loyalties were in conflict, motives were mixed, and fear, greed, and opportunism caused many to act in ways they later preferred to forget. Collaboration is a pejorative word, and yet many felt that they served their people best by accepting office under the Japanese. There is evidence of some who exceeded that role."
Masa Jepun: Sarawak Under the Japanese 1941-1945.
"There was little resistance to the Japanese among Sarawak's residents, even among local Chinese. Going by Ooi's account, instances of Japanese violence also appear to have been few. Those who suffered most seem to have been members of the European community who the Japanese either locked up in camps or forced to flee across the island. All this changed, however, after the war, when Sarawak's various ethnic populations had to reconstitute society. Apparently, goodwill towards European administrators never waned, but suspicions between other groups sadly arose, even against some local Chinese who the Japanese had appointed as responsible for local economic monopolies. The postwar Brooke government did not prosecute collaborators because it would have been impossible to do so fairly."
RISING SUN OVER BORNEO:The Japanese Occupation of Sarawak, 1941-1945
"When the occupation ended most Sarawakians were content to wipe the four years from memory. People talked little about it, and when they did handed down tales of unrelieved darkness and suffering. But as Sarawak was a backwater of the war—no great battles were fought there, no large scale massacres occurred—the occupation-period, what it really was, remained a dark hole in Borneo history, largely unexamined."

After a week of serious Doing we were ready for a weekend of Doing Nothing. Which is, for the most part, exactly what we got.

Transplanting three potted lettuces from our local orchard. It was in the 60s and sunny and wonderful when we stepped out on the deck to play briefly in the dirt. Ahhh, relaxing springtime.

You don't need me to tell you that 2020 sucked. It did, we all know it and we all hope things get better in 2021.
That said, we were lucky in that there were some really great records this year, despite the insanity. I know for a fact that I bought fewer new albums in 2020 than any prior year. I know that there are good records that came out that I haven't heard yet. There are even records on this list that I wasn't able to get the vinyl for yet. On the docket for sure.
What I can say for certain is that The Suitesixteen would have been my number one record just about any year it would have come out. I absolutely adore it and haven't listened to it more than anything else this year by a country mile. That isn't to say the rest of the top 10 wasn't great, they were. Headsparks, Custody and Reverse really brought me back to those feelings I had in the mid 90s when I was obsessing about UK punk rock and Boat checked in with an indie rock record as good as anything that's come out in the past five years or so.
But, The Suitesixteen record is something truly special. If you get nothing else out of this year, give that record a listen.

For those who don't cover Chicago politics, "CPAC" stands for Civilian Police Accountability Council, a proposed elected council that would have the power to investigate police officers, hire and fire them, hire and fire police superintendents and determine certain elements of police policy. A brainchild of the Chicago Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression , the ordinance has been on the Chicago City Council docket for years and years, and while support for it has grown, it doesn't have enough votes to pass, though not for the lack of trying from its supporters.
If you are wondering what activists are doing advertising a Chicago policy change not just in another city, but in another state... Well, if I had to guess, I would say that they're well aware that both Chicago and Milwaukee news stations will be at the press conference, and this is a great opportunity not just for Chicago exposure, but national exposure
In 1890 the Walker family was rocked by a shocking assault on my great, great grandmother, Charlotte Walker and her daughter, Sarah Walker in their new home at Morgan's Cut, outside of Dublin, Virginia. Linda Killen writes in "These People Lived in a Pleasant Valley: A History of Slaves and Freedmen in Nineteenth Century Pulaski County, Virginia", Chapter 16, pp 129-130, that: “In 1890 Charles Jones (white) was found guilty of attempted rape against Charlotte Walker (wife of Randolph) and her daughter Sarah, age 17”. Killen says she obtained this information from a loose document found at the Wilderness Road Regional Museum in Pulaski County, Virginia.
This is a tricky case. Linda Killen holds the Walker family up as an example of “equal protection under the law”, which may or may not be true if my research is correct. I have not been able to find the 1890 Pulaski County, Virginia “attempted rape” conviction against the white man, Charles Jones, in any of the places where it should be stored. The fact that Ms. Killen found this information in a document at The Wilderness Road Regional Museum in Dublin, Virginia, and not in the County Clerk’s Office in Pulaski tells me that there might be something off in her assessment of the case. Or on the other hand, she might be more right than certain historical records suggest.
What I have found is the 1890 Pulaski County, Virginia conviction of one "Chas. Jones" (Charles Jones), age 17 of “House Breaking”. One can assume that in order to commit the crime of attempted rape one might have to break into a home to do it. But house breaking and attempted rape are not the same crime, not by a long shot. And what is most important is that this Charles Jones is not white, he is black. On microfilm at The Library of Virginia , in the “Virginia Dept. of Corrections, Virginia Penitentiary Prisoner Register No. 6 (5 Jan. 1885-29 Sept. 1894), Reel 5991, page 126, I discovered that Charles Jones (black) entered the Virginia State Penitentiary on June 9, 1890. He had been sentenced to serve four years. He is described as being born in Dinwiddie County, Virginia, “5 ft. 5” in height, with a “Ginger Cake” complexion, with black hair and black eyes. A further investigation revealed that on May 6, 1890 a grand jury in Pulaski County, Virginia brought an indictment jointly against Charles Jones [black], and Edward Philips [an accomplice] for felony”.1 There is no mention of “attempted rape”. The court records are no more specific than “felony”. The race of “Edward Philips” is unknown, because the court records don't reveal that either. Was he white? Maybe.
On June 2, 1890 in the case of the Commonwealth of Virginia vs. Charles Jones, a Pulaski County jury found Charles Jones guilty as charged (presumably “House Breaking”). What is interesting about this case is that at this juncture the two defendants, Charles Jones and “Edward Philips”, have been separated, and are now being tried individually. But Charles Jones' savvy public defender, S. N. Hurst [Samuel N. Hurst, 1867-1944], requests that the judgment against his client be set aside and that Jones receive a re-trial. Judge Isaac Hudson [1834-1896] disagrees and Charles Jones is remanded to the state penitentiary to serve his fours years. But here's the catch: there is no Pulaski County record of “Edward Philips” being tried for “House Breaking”. Nor does a “Edward Phillips” sentenced in Pulaski County appear in any of the Virginia State Penitentiary records of that time period.
What is strange about this case is that four months later on October 7, 1890, we finally get to the Commonwealth of Virginia vs. “E. Phillips” (the last name Phillips now spelled with two “L's” as opposed to just one). And what is even stranger, Charles Jones [Chas. Jones] is now once again his co-defendant. The surety (bond) for one or both of the defendants was provided by “W. C. Allen” [William C. Allen (1845-1906) of Dublin, Virginia. Now remember, Charles Jones is already in the state penitentiary for “House Breaking” (he has been there since June). This new charge is spelled out specifically as an “indictment for attempt to rape”. This is obviously what the writer, Linda Killen was talking about in her book. But the attorney for the Commonwealth of Virginia, “by the leave of the court declines to prosecute further in these causes & is therefore ordered that they be dismissed from the docket.” This is why there is no trace of “Edward Philips/E. Phillips” from Pulaski County in the state penitentiary records—because he was never prosecuted—for any crime.
So, who was this Edward Philips/E. Phillips? Was he white or black? And was he nothing more than a teenager like his partner in crime, Charles Jones? I don't know. I'll get back to you on that. What I do know, however is this, that this once beautiful house in which the assault occurred now stands as a ruin in Dublin, Virginia, because in the words of my father, Oliver Walker, Jr., “nobody wanted it”. "Too many bad memories?", I asked. "Yeah", he mumbled back.

Bill O’Reilly: An awful, awful man
By Erik Wemple April 2 at 1:44 PM
Bill O’Reilly. (Richard Drew/Associated Press)
As Fox News last year was plowing through the sexual harassment scandal involving now-former network chief Roger Ailes, King of Cable News Bill O’Reilly couldn’t have been more dismissive of the victims. “In this country, every famous, powerful or wealthy person is a target. You’re a target,” O’Reilly said in a July appearance on “Late Night” with Seth Meyers. “I’m a target. Anytime somebody could come out and sue us, attack us, go to the press or anything like that. … I stand behind Roger 100 percent.”
Roger was the wrong man to stand behind.
Subsequent events would say why: An internal investigation of Fox News turned up a series of complaints regarding Ailes’s conduct toward women. Former host Gretchen Carlson, who kicked off all the action with a lawsuit against Ailes in early July, received a settlement worth $20 million plus a no-nonsense apology from Fox News’s parent company, 21st Century Fox. Ailes was ousted, though he denied the claims against him.
Months after lamenting his status as a “target,” we are learning that O’Reilly was speaking from deep experience. The New York Times reported on Saturday that about $13 million has been dished out over the years — by O’Reilly and his employer — to resolve complaints from women regarding O’Reilly’s antics. The claims shed light on just why O’Reilly and his former boss Ailes fashioned a mutual protection racket on the premises of Fox News: They both needed someone who’d have their back.
Reporting by the New York Times builds on an existing docket of allegations against O’Reilly. We already knew, for instance, that former producer Andrea Mackris had filed a sexual harassment suit against O’Reilly in 2004, alleging all manner of lurid conduct against the top host. She came away with a $9 million settlement, according to the Times. And news broke earlier this year that former employee Juliet Hud
