Cypress Grove / Firemen's Cemetery

120 City Park Avenue

New Orleans, Louisiana

circa 1840

  

Cypress Grove / Firemen's Cemetery was built on the banks of what was Bayou Metairie at the end of Canal Street in 1840. In 1841, the remains of firemen buried elsewhere in the city were moved to Cypress Grove. The entrance pylons and lodges were designed in the Egyptian style by Fredrick Wilkinson for a cost of $8,000. Many Protestant began to be buried here when the Girod Street Cemetery began to deteriorate. The cemetery is lined with Wall Vaults many of which contain the remains of volunteer firemen. There are also several large multi-vault tombs of volunteer fire companies such as Perserverance Fire Co No 13, Philadelphia Fire Engine Co No 14 and the tomb of Eagle Fire Co No 7. Elaborate tombs such as those of the Robert Stark and the WH Letchford families stand in the cemetery alongside the cast iron tomb of former mayor foundaryman, Charles L Leeds. One of the most interesting tombs, is the Soon On Tong Association tomb used as a temporary burial space of Chinese residents. The remains were once brought here for ceremony before being shipped back to China. The tomb of Maunsell White, veteran of the Battle of New Orleans and promoter of the use of hot peppers and pepper sauces (still used today), is buried here.

On the Perserverance Trail

Juneau, AK

(from "A Purple Haze" by Artyjules)

 

It rained all night.. No.. It *stormed* all night. But then the storm passed as suddenly, though much less violently, than it had arrived..

 

The rain was still dripping from the trees and flowers when the sun broke through the clouds. It was as if nature was breathing deeply, catching her breath after battling the storm in the night.

 

You could still hear the thunder grumbling in the distance, as if to say the war wasn't over. The demure purple wisteria simply smiled and gave the sun a wink, and spread her petals to dry..

In the autumn of 2022 there was an exhibition of Paul Cézanne paintings at the Tate Modern gallery in London.

 

This picture was formerly owned by Henri Matisse. he wrote "in the 37 years I have owned this canvas ... it has sustained me morally in the critical moments of my venture as an artist. I have drawn from it my faith and perserverance".

My luck held this morning with Perserverance Lake displaying the most beautiful pink mist throughout the early morning could not believe the sea of cloud and mist that greeted my eyes when I moved on to Cressbrook. Thought it would be all over red rover as Cressbrook does not open until 7am and it was covered in a frothy silver cloud which burned off quickly and I was lucky enough to witness the extraordinary beauty of the morning. Perseverance with a pink fog and Cressbrook with a silver fog...:))

For these young men and women, hard work and perserverance finally paid off. For many now it'soff to college. Whey aren't all the seats filled? Where are those children left behind? Perhaps wandering aimlessly with no job, no place to live or food to eat. Perhaops they may even have small children with them, that are also left behind. Education should be our number 1 priority !!!

Famine (1997) was commissioned by Norma Smurfit and presented to the City of Dublin in 1997.

The sculpture is a commemorative work dedicated to those Irish people forced to emigrate during the 19th century Irish Famine. The bronze sculptures were designed and crafted by Dublin sculptor Rowan Gillespie and are located on Custom House Quay in Dublin's Docklands.

 

This location is a particularly appropriate and historic as one of the first voyages of the Famine period was on the 'Perserverance' which sailed from Custom House Quay on St. Patrick's Day 1846.

Captain William Scott, a native of the Shetland Isles, was a veteran of the Atlantic crossing, gave up his office job in New Brunswick to take the 'Perserverance' out of Dublin. He was 74 years old. The Steerage fare on the ship was £3 and 210 passengers made the historical journey.

They landed in New York on the 18th May 1846. All passengers and crew survived the journey.

Desmonde is a girl I know from derby. She no longer plays roller derby but seems to lead a life that reflects the perserverance and agression that is required in the sport.

Desmonde is a smart smart girl who cares about others. To me the combination is rare and pleasing. I am happy to know her and happy that she is doing what she wants/needs/loves.
