Last month's highlight: Macquarie's instructions to James Meehan for the laying out of the Five Townships of Windsor, Richmond, Pitt town, Wilberforce and Castlereagh dated 26 December 1810. Notice Macquarie's attention to detail in the instructions: he sets a regular width for the streets and the assignment of land to be used for the Church, School, Gaol and Guard house. He even gives directions as to the type of
dwelling houses which may be built.
FULL TRANSCRIPT
Instructions given to James Meehan for the laying out of the Five Townships
Secretary’s Office Sydney
26th December 1810
Sir
His Excellency the Governor deeming it expedient/in
order to guard against any misunderstanding on your part/to commit
the Instructions which He has already given you verbally on the
subjects of the New Townships now about to be finally, laid out and
for the further purpose of your explaining the same to all persons
concerned, so that at any future period, no doubt as to His
Excellency’s intentions may be started, has instructed me to convey
His directions to you to proceed immediately, to Windsor, where you
are to apply for, and receive from Mr Cox the Chief Magistrate, the
Several Returns of the Settlers Names who are desirous of forming
their future Residences within the said New Townships
So soon as you have received those Returns, you
are with the least possible delay, to commence the business of
laying out in a clear and distinct manner the Several Town-
Ships of Windsor, Richmond, Pitt town, Wilberforce and Castlereagh
in which duty you are to require the assistance of Mr Evans, the
Deputy Surveyor. These Townships are to be established on the
High Grounds already surveyed and allotted for those purposes by His
Excellency, the Governor on the several Commons within the respective
Districts to which these Townships are to be attached As a
General guide to you in the execution of this very important business
you
56
You are principally, to observe and follow the subsequent Rules
and Orders in the marking out the several Townships and
allotments for the Settlers who mean to reside therein
1st You are mark out the several Townships by
regular lines accurately defined, and the streets
to be laid out are to be 66 feet wide – those streets
running lengthways thro’ the Town are to be parallel
to, and 8 chains distant from each other – these streets
are also to be intersected by others crossing them at
right angles, which streets are to be the same
width with the others, but are to be laid out 12
chains apart from each other, and are also to be in
parallel directions
2 In the Center of each Town or Township you
are to assign a Square Space of Ground containing
396 feet on each side for the purpose of erecting a
Church, a School House, a Gaol and Guard House in
and you are to set apart 2 acres of Ground on the
rear of the central square for a Burial ground, with
an expection in this particular with regard to Windsor
and Richmond, instructions for which will be
noticed herein.
3 The Townships are to be laid out in regular
Allotments for the future Inhabitants in the
Following proportions. Viz.
Allotment
For settlers holding Farms less than 30 1½ Acres
For
57
Allotment
For settlers holding Farms of 30 and less than 50 Acres 2 acres
Do [Ditto] Do [Ditto] of 50 and less than 100 Do [Ditto] 3 Do [Ditto]
Do [Ditto] Do [Ditto] of 100 acres and upwards 4 Do [Ditto]
4 But as there is not a sufficiency of unappropriated Land
in the Township of Windsor to make the allotments equally
great as the foregoing whilst that which is disposable
becomes of course the more valuable, you are to make
the distribution of it accordingly to the following scale
namely
Allotment
For Settlers holding Farms less than 30 acres ¾ acre
Do [Ditto] Do of 30 and less than 50 Acres 1 Do
Do [Ditto] Do of 50 and less than 100 do 1½ Do
Do [ Ditto] Do of 100 acres and Upwards 2 Do
The main streets or those which run lengthways in Windsor
are to be parallel and 5 Chains asunder, and the
Streets at right angles with them or running cross-
ways are to be 12 Chains apart and throughout paral-
lel to each other the Width of the Streets to be 66 feet as
in the other Townships Fifty acres of Ground are to
be reserved for small Town allotments for the accom-
modation of Tradesmen which Ground is to commence
from Rickaby’s, Mr Marsden’s and Thomas’s farms
and to extend thence to the Farms on the South Creek
The allotments to be reserved for the settlers who have
Farms on the Banks of the River are to commence
at the termination of the 50 Acres reserved for the
Tradespeople Every Person holding a Farm on the
Bank of the River which is liable to the Floods, is to
have an allotment assigned him, whether his Land
is
58
is held by Grant or Lease from the Government or by Purchase
or Lease from the original Grantee It is however to be
clearly understood in this place that such allotments are
never to be sold or alienated independent of the Farms for
the security of which they are now first to be granted, nor is
any Person whatever who holds Land on the River to get
an allotment in a District Township but that wherein
his Farm is situated to which he is to be exclusively attached
and limited.
5 You are also to number the Farms on the banks of
the Hawkesbury and Nepean which are subject to the floods
in the same order they are placed on the Chart Viz
No 1, 2, 3 and so on for their entire number and
corresponding numbers for the Town allotment are to be
given to the settlers, paying due attention to the proportions
already prescribed When this duty is performed you are to
make out a complete register off all the allotments thus
assigned in order that it may be referred to in any Cases
of dispute which may in future arise respecting them.
6 The dwelling houses to be erected in the several Town-
ships by the settlers are to be either made of Brick or
weather boarded, to have Brick chimneys and to roofed
with shingles each house is to contain not less than two
apartments, with a glazed window in each room and
the side walls are not to less than 9 feet high A
Plan of such dwelling houses with suitable offices will be
left with each District Constable to which every Settler in
the erection of his house and office must conform as
already
59
already prescribed in His Excellency’s address to the settlers under
the Head of General and Government Orders dated the 15th
instant and you are to take pains to making this
injunction perfectly understood
7 You are also to locate a Glebe of 400 acres of Land
for the present and future use Chaplains resident at
Windsor the situation to be a convenient and
eligible one within that Township or in the town-
ship of Richmond, but you are by all means to avoid
marking it out in any situation whereby it might
prove injurious or inconvenient for the Farms on
the Banks of the River, either by its shutting up or
excluding their free communication between their Farms
so sealed and the Town Common assigned for the
grazing of their cattle. Neither is the Glebe to extend
nearer than one mile to the Towns of Windsor or
Richmond.
8 The Burial Grounds for the Townships of Windsor and
Richmond, and the Grounds whereon it is intended to
erect the Churches and School houses are to be con-
sidered as exceptions to the rules laid down in the 2nd
Paragraph of these Instructions, and are to be marked
out for them as the Governor has already directed
9 In any cases not provided for in these present in-
structions, you are to be guided by the verbal directions
which you have already received from His Excellency,
the Governor, and you are by all means to impress
These His Excellency’s Instructions on every person
who
60
who may feel an interest therein

On 2 April 1916 a large force of heavily armed police invaded Maungapōhatu in Te Urewera to arrest the Tūhoe leader and self-proclaimed prophet, Rua Kēnana.
At the outbreak of the First World War, Rua was accused of sedition because he held pacifist beliefs and actively discouraged his followers from enlisting. There were rumours that he openly supported Germany.
Rua’s staunch anti-war rhetoric offended the government. Liquor laws were used as a way to harass him, and he was arrested for selling illicit alcohol at Maungapōhatu. Rua refused to attend court, claiming he was busy with a harvest. This was viewed as contempt and a new warrant was issued for his arrest, which led to the events of 2 April.
Two Māori, including Rua’s son Toko, were shot and killed during the arrest. Rua was taken to Auckland for trial. His Supreme Court trial was one of the longest in New Zealand history, and he was found not guilty of sedition, but guilty of ‘morally’ resisting arrest. Rua was sentenced to one year’s hard labour followed by 18 months’ imprisonment. Eight of the jury later petitioned Parliament to have the sentence reduced.
The image above is from a file relating to his trial, ordering witnesses held at Auckland Prison to appear before the Court.

Eier / Owner Institution: Trondheim byarkiv, The Municipal Archives of Trondheim
Arkivreferanse / Archive reference: Formannskapet: Journalsaker 1945, Journalsak 5. Se også Trondheim kommunale forhandlinger: Vedtak i det midlertidige kommunestyre 11. mai - 9. august 1945 (1945/B), s. 4.
Bakgrunn:
Den 14 juni 1929 besluttet Norges storting og regjeringen under bergenseren Johan Ludvig Mowinckel å forandre Trondhjems navn til Nidaros. Gjennom hele 1930 og fram til mars 1931 het byen Nidaros, men dette resulterte i enorme protester og demonstrasjoner uten sidestilling i byen. Politikerne i Stortinget måtte etter over ett år med motbør bøye av for folket, men ville likevel ikke innrømme sin feil. Derfor oppgav man navnet Nidaros. Men istedet for å gi byen sitt opprinnelige navn tilbake gav de byen navnet Trondheim som en kompromissløsning.
Den første saken som ble tatt opp i Trondheims midlertidige kommunestyres andre møte den 24 mai 1945 var saken om byens navn. Den tidligere lederen av Trondhjemsforeningen sendte brev til bystyret med ønske om å få en beslutning om å få tilbakeført byens navn til Trondhjem. Saken ble tatt opp, men kun referert - og bystyret tok ingen beslutning.

Trondhjem den 14. mai 1945.

Til Trondhjems Bystyre,
v/ ordføreren,
herr lektor Ivar Skjånes,
Trondhjem.
Som tidligere formann i Trondhjemsforeningen, tillater jeg mig å foreslå for bystyret at dette snarest mulig forbereder og optar forslag for Norges nye Storting om at vår by på lovlig vis, også officielt, får sitt virkelige og sande navn tilbake.
Vi må iallfall nu være blitt enige også om den ting at tvangsomdøpningen av vår by var et overgrep av de myndigheter, som den gang fant det nødvendigere å omdøpe byer, jernbanestasjoner og gateskilt enn å sette vårt forsvar i stand.
Bastardnavnet Trondheim forekommer mig å være en blanding av tysk og landsmål, og for undertegnede personlig er begge dele nesten like motbydelig.
Det Norske Storting's tvangsomdøpning av vår by var i sin tid en terrorhandling på like linje med de terrorhandlinger som vi nu i over 5 år har været utsatt for fra "tyskere" og "N.S.".
Nu får vi "tyskerne" bort og vi får "nacisterne" bort. La oss også få Trondheim vekk. Sørg for at vi trøndere får vårt eget bevis på at rett og retferdighet nu skal råde i landet. Altså: Vekk med alt som heter heim. Vår egen høist ærede kronprins er ikke kommet heim til Norge. Han er kommet hjem, og vi her i denne by, vi ønsker å komme hjem til T R O N D H J E M.
Jeg tør be herr ordføreren om å referere denne skrivelse for det samlede bystyre på dettes første møte og ber Dem gjøre mitt forslag til Deres.
Ærbødigst,
Tobias Lund [sign.]

On August 29 1914 New Zealand forces captured German Samoa after being asked to do so by Great Britain. When war broke out in Europe in August 1914, Britain asked New Zealand to seize German Samoa as a ‘great and urgent Imperial service’. New Zealand’s response was swift. Led by Lieutenant-Colonel Robert Logan, the 1385-strong Samoa Advance Party of the New Zealand Expeditionary Force landed at Apia on 29 August. There was no resistance from German officials or Samoa’s general population.
The German flag was lowered and all buildings and properties belonging to the previous administration were seized. In the presence of officers, troops and ‘leading Native chiefs’, the British flag was raised outside the government building in Apia. The document pictured is the orders Logan received from Colonel Braithwaite to seize German Samoa. Braithwaite was a British Army Officer who had been seconded to the New Zealand Military Forces from 1911 to 1917. Archives New Zealand holds the military personnel files for Colonel Robert Logan and Colonel William Braithwaite. These files are digitised and can be accessed from the following links:

Annibale Sebben, my grandfather, left Fonzaso, Italy at the age of 15 and sailed on the steamship Le Havre to begin a new life in America. He took the name David to start his new adventure as he passed by the Statue of Liberty and onto Ellis Island for processing. A small boy on an adventure of a lifetime. He held this in his very hand and to me, that is very special that we still have it.
Here is his passport. Born on January 30, 1895, he lived with his parents Antonio and Argenta Sebben in the picturesque town of Fonzaso in northern Italy. He departed with many aunts and uncles to find a better life in the United States.
He found work as a gardener for Mr. Marshall Field in Chicago, then moved on to Seymour,Iowa where he worked coal mines for many years. Imagine going to work in the dark, working in the dark, and going home when it was dark--six days a week. How depressing.
Sunday was a time for family. He was always dressed in a white shirt and tie and kept perfect shoes. He played the trumpet in an all-Italian band to pass what little free time he had.
Later in life, he moved to the Quad Cities and worked at John Deere until he passed away from black lung disease, contracted from working the coal mines of southern Iowa.
I never knew the man. I wished I had.
Original Caption: Treaty of Paris. The treaty, sent to Congress by the American negotiators, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, and John Jay, formally ended the Revolutionary War. They emerged from the peace process with one of the most advantageous treaties ever negotiated for the United States. Two crucial provisions of the treaty were British recognition of U.S. independence and the delineation of boundaries that would allow for American western expansion. There are two duplicate originals of the treaty in the American Original file that are most easily distinguished from each other by the orientation of their seals, horizontal on one and vertical on the other.
