The south door still showing multiple musket ball holes from the attack by parliamentarian forces on 4th. March, 1643.
Sir Alexander Denton, the head of the house at the time of the Civil War, had married a cousin of John Hampden, but his Royalist sympathies were well known. In 1642 a Parliamentary soldier, Nathaniel Wharton, boasted of having, with a file of men. 'marched to Sir Alexander Denton's park, who is a malignant fellow, and killed a fat buck.'
In January 1643–4, when the Parliamentary forces held Aylesbury and Newport, Captain Jecamiah Abercromby and a troop of Parliamentarians occupied Hillesden House, the Royalist men in the neighbourhood having retreated before them. A contemporary record, with Parliamentary sympathies, states that the taking of the house was 'much to the ease and comfort of the poor inhabitants of the almost wasted county of Buckingham,' which was oppressed by the owners of the great house. Less than a month later, however, Abercromby, making a sortie, was captured by Captain Peter Dayrell and his party defeated. It was after this, early in February, that Col. William Smith was sent from the king's forces at Oxford with a small troop to garrison Hillesden House, which, lying nearly midway between Oxford and Newport, might prove a strong support to the king's operations in the former city. At this time there were in the house, besides Sir Alexander's children, several other relatives, his sisters and nieces, and some of the Verney family. He afterwards wrote to Sir Ralph Verney that he himself had only come accidentally to Hillesden House, to remove his family, the king having placed a garrison there. The actual garrison appears to have amounted to about 263 men.
Col. Smith assumed command. He built additional accommodation for men and horses, had a trench dug inclosing the house and the parish church, and made foraging expeditions in the district. One of these led to a dispute with the owner of some cattle taken; the man appealed to the governors at Newport and Aylesbury, who thereupon awoke to the growing danger of the garrison at Hillesden. A force was dispatched thither from Aylesbury, but, finding the garrison fully prepared, retired without accomplishing anything. Between this and the second attack the defenders at Hillesden replenished their ammunition and summoned the countryside under penalty of a fine to come and keep garrison and continue the work of fortification. But the enemy moved with great promptitude. An order made by the committee of both kingdoms to Col. Oliver Cromwell, about this date, instructs him, his forces being about Hillesden, to stay in those parts and 'to be as active to the prejudice of the enemy as with your safety you may.' He advanced on Hillesden, encamping in Claydon at the spot known as Camp Barn, the night before the siege. Sir Samuel Luke, governor of Newport, advanced also, and the besiegers, amounting to about 2,000 strong, appeared before Hillesden House, which was unprepared for such a rapid approach, before nine o'clock on the morning of 4 March 1643.
According to Luke's own dispatch the house at once sounded a parley and Col. Smith sent out to ask for terms. An unconditional surrender was demanded, and this being refused the assault commenced. From the first the defenders were overpowered. Their fortifications and entrenchments were incomplete and proved inadequate; a retreat was made to the church and house, and in a second assault the church was taken, whereupon Col. Smith surrendered on a promise of quarter. Luke states that his men 'in less than a quarter of an hour were masters of the house and works.' He seems, however, having made prisoners of the defenders, to have violated his promise, many of the garrison being slain without mercy. He also speaks in his dispatch of the spoils gained—thirteen barrels of powder with match and ball proportionable, the cellars full of good beer, the stables full of horses, and yards full of oxen and beasts. The day after the siege a soldier discovered a large sum of money and treasure hidden in the wainscoting. A rumour that the king's troops were advancing from Oxford created great panic, and for this and other reasons the captors evacuated Hillesden the day after the siege, setting fire to the house, which was entirely destroyed.
The casualties during the siege amounted to about forty on the side of the defenders and not above six of the attacking side, which included 'no officer killed or hurt save onely Col. Pickering and that onely a little chocke under the chin with a musquet balle.'
As regards the inhabitants of the house, the women and children were left in a beggared condition, though not molested by the enemy, and some of them at least found a refuge in the Verneys' house at Claydon.
Sir Alexander Denton and Col. Smith with other officers were taken prisoners and subsequently removed to the Tower. In a letter of about this time Sir Alexander says, 'You may see what I suffered in two dayes cannot but be allmost every man's fortune by degrees, if these most unhappe tymes continue but a short tyme.' Ralph Verney also wrote to Edmund Denton, 'Suffer me to tell you how much I am afflicted for the ruin of sweet Hilesdon, and the distreses that hapened to my aunt and sisters.'

A Virgin Trains class 390 'Pendolino' electric multiple unit is pictured arriving at Crewe whilst working 9S97 17:43 London Euston - Glasgow Central via Birmingham New Street on May 31st 2017.
Locations of "Neighborhood Cameras are give here:
mpdc.dc.gov/mpdc/cwp/view,A,1238,Q,560780.asp
Is the camera mounted on the overhang pointed down Blair Road?
Or is it pointed at the Metro tracks?
Sure ain't pointed at the front door of the S & S liquor store.
Although it is mounted on their roof I wonder whether it really belongs to S & S.
A number of murals decorate the side of a old Beloit Corp. Building in Beloit, WI.. These murals feature some of the employees as well as a view of the manufacturing area. The top area of colored glass is backlit with strob lights at night, making it look as if molten metal was being poured into castings. Beloit Corp made paper making machinery that was sold around the world. Best when viewed on black.

Depew Memorial Fountain is a freestanding fountain completed in 1919 and located in University Park in downtown Indianapolis, Indiana within the Indiana World War Memorial Plaza.
The fountain is composed of multiple bronze figures arranged on a five-tier Stony Creek pink granite base with three basins. The bronze sculptures depict fish, eight children dancing, and a woman on the topmost tier dancing and playing cymbals.
The Depew Memorial Fountain was commissioned in memory of Dr. Richard J. Depew by his wife, Emma Ely, following Dr. Depew’s death in 1887. When Mrs. Depew died in 1913, she had bequeathed $50,000 from her estate to the city of Indianapolis for the erection of a fountain in memory of her husband “in some park or public place where all classes of people may enjoy it.”
The original design was created by Karl Bitter, who was killed in a traffic accident in 1915 before the work could be done. Following Bitter’s overall design, Alexander Stirling Calder created the bronze figures and the fountain.
“The ideal Mr. Calder has sought to give expression to was one of joyous, vigorous, innocent youth seeking and outlet for energy and the natural pursuit of pleasure, hence the dance.”
Alexander Stirling Calder, son of a Scottish sculptor, was the father of Alexander Calder, the modernist sculptor in the twentieth century.
Dr. Richard J. Depew was a well-known physician in the Indianapolis area. He was born in 1815 and practiced medicine in St. Omer, and later in St. Paul, Decatur County ,for years. He made professional trips on horseback and was a bachelor until late in life. He married Emma Ely Depew and moved to Indianapolis where he later died.
University Park is a one block square park in downtown Indianapolis. It was originally designated as property for a state university in 1827. However, this idea was never executed.
About twenty-five years later, campus buildings were constructed for the city’s first high school.
After the school was vacated in 1860, the site was used to prepare Union troops for a confrontation with the Morgan’s Raiders during the Civil War.
The southeast corner of the park once contained a lumberyard, while the north side contained a cow pasture and a children’s playground. J.B. Perrine leased the east side in 1850 for an exhibition ground. Band concerts, balloon ascensions, and fireworks were held here.
“The finest exhibition of fireworks ever given in the city was made there on the 4th of July, 1860.”
After the Civil War was over, the people of Indianapolis raised money to transform the land into a park.
George Edward Kessler redesigned University Park in 1914 for a park and boulevard system. His design called for a central circle with diagonal concrete walkways and heavy plantings at the corners and intersections of the park. Kessler was a German American pioneer city planner and landscape architect. Over the course of his career, he completed over 200 projects and prepared plans for 26 communities, 26 park and boulevard systems, 49 parks, 46 estates and residents, and 26 schools.
Henry Bacon designed the plaza for the Depew Fountain. Bacon was an American Beaux-Arts architect best remembered for the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C.

Multiple colored US shields are a rare sight anymore in Florida. US 17 was represented by yellow signs and US 92 had blue. They're in pretty good shape, installed in 1985. The colored-shield era came to an end in 1993, with only a few stragglers of Florida's past remaining.
