This was shot with a manual focus Yashica ML 75-150mm f/4 lens that I got in a batch with several other lenses for $11 at a pawn shop. For the price, it's a decent performer.

Colonel, 3rd Indian Home Guard, Kansas Infantry
William Cutler wrote the following about this gentleman:
WILLIAM A. PHILLIPS, is of Scottish birth, but immigrated with his father when a boy to Randolph County, Ill. On reaching man's estate he practiced law and edited a newspaper in Chester, Ill., and at the same time contributed to many newspapers and magazines. He wrote several books, among them "Scenes and Characters of Backwoods Life," "Paul Persimmon " and the "Conquest of Kansas." In the spring of 1855, he became a member of the New York Tribune staff, for which paper he had contributed for several years. In that year he went to Kansas as their Kansas correspondent and for several years after, and has often written editorials and other articles for it and other papers since. In 1857, he conceived the idea of founding a colony, and made a journey of many hundred miles, early in the spring of that year with a Mr. Smith, for a companion. He examined the valleys of the Smokey Hill, Solomon, Republican and Blue rivers, and from these observations determined on the location near where Salina now stands. In February, 1858, he made the location of the town site and it was surveyed and building at once commenced. His first two companions in fixing the town site were A. M. Campbell and James Muir. These were reinforced by many other colonists. The original town company as first organized was composed of Messrs. William A. Phillips, A. M. Campbell, James Muir, A. C. Spillman, Robert Crawford and David L. Phillips, to these were added Rev. Wm. Bishop, Ransom Calkins and Dr. Lull. The title of the town site was obtained in 1863. Col. Phillips in addition to being the general business agent for the company met the greater portion of the expense incident to its early history. In 1858 he had a large double log house built for a hotel. It stood on the southwest corner of Iron avenue and Fifth street. He also placed the first store or stock of goods in town. There was no store nearer than Junction City at that time . In 1859 he purchased and hauled to Salina a grist and upright and circular saw mill. In that year he built a frame hotel building on the north west corner of Santa Fe and Iron avenues, hauling the pine lumber, doors, window sash, etc., from Kansas City and Leavenworth. He at different times has erected many other buildings in town, and has constantly, by money influence and labor striven to build up the town he had founded. When the war broke out he at once enlisted, raised the Third Kansas and tendered it to President Lincoln and it was accepted. On its consolidation he was appointed by President Lincoln, Major of the First Indian Regiment which he accepted as the command was marching immediately to the front. In July, 1862, he was promoted to Colonel of the Third Indian, a Cherokee Regiment. A month later he had command of the Indian Brigade. That command was composed of civilized Indians, who were uniformed and drilled like white troops. It contained two regiments of Cherokees, one of Creeks, with battalions and companies of Seminoles, Uches, Natches, Shawnees, Delawares and Osages. At the close of 1862, Colonel Phillips under instructions from Washington, reorganized the Indian command on a more thorough and intelligent plan. January 5, 1863, he received from General Schoffield, command of a division in the field, including the Indian troops, parts of the Sixth and Ninth Kansas, Hopkins' Battery, the First Arkansas Battery, the First Arkansas Cavalry, and Fist and Second Arkansas Infantry, the Tenth Illinois and Third Wisconsin and other commands. In the same year he received command of two Districts, the western half of Arkansas and the Indian Territory. He continued in command of a separate army in the field until the war closed, and took part in nearly all the engagements that were fought in that country; the command fighting its way to hold the line of that river. He made several expeditions from that point south, and was generally successful as a Commander. He received three slight wounds, none of which forced him to leave the field, and had four horses killed under him in battle. At the close of the war he returned to build up Salina, which at that time looked somewhat dilapidated. The building of the Pacific Railway was secured and from that time Salina grew steadily. Col. Phillips has held several public positions of distinction. He took part in all the early conventions in the State, was a member of the Legislature, spokesman of the Kansas Delegation in Chicago, in 1860, was elected to the Forty-third Congress, having received the nomination of the Republican party by acclamation; was re-elected to the Forty-fourth and Forty-fifth Congresses, serving with distinction. The most notable public measures supported by him were amendments to the land laws, timber culture, postal savings banks and postal telegraphy, the retention of legal tender and restoration of silver coinage.

This beach is located in Swampscott, MA. I use Google Earth to find places that look interesting to me. Normally, I look for rocky outcroppings and skip beachs that look like they have only sand. This is a long beach that is mostly sand, but I noticed that both ends of the beach are capped in some nice-looking rock.
Sometimes, though, things don't always go as planned. The rocky areas were pretty inaccessible. I also had thought I would be able to keep the houses out of the shots, but that didn't work out either.
Oh well. It was a nice sunset and there were a pair of boulders that made good foreground subjects. The extreme colors in this come from the Hoya ND400 filter. I need to pick up Lee's "Big Stopper" at some point. For one thing, composing when using both Lee filters and this solid ND is really difficult, because you can't see through the viewfinder. So you have to take off the Lee filters, find somewhere safe to put them down, remove the ND, and compose. And then do everything in reverse. Having a simple slide-in filter like my other Lee filters would be great.

PHILLIP A. SMITH
In every community the pioneer is justly marked for special honor. Those who share in the benefits of civilization give due credit to those who made possible the blessing which they enjoy. Among the pioneers of Rice County, Kansas, who have been witnesses of its development and are still left to plan for its future, none were more highly respected than Phillip A Smith, of Little River.
Phillip A Smith was born in Knox county, Illinois, December 5, 1843, and was reared on his father’s farm and educated in the common school. His parents, John and Mary (Ginrich) Smith, were born in Pennsylvania, where they married. John Smith was a son of Conrad Smith, a farmer who also was a native of Pennsylvania, but was descended from German stock. Conrad Smith was a soldier in the war of 1812, and did creditable service as a member of a Pennsylvania organization. He combined distilling with farming and in other ways was a man of decided enterprise. He removed from Pennsylvania to Illinois in 1836, and was a pioneer in Knox county, where he settled on land three years before it came into market. Then, in order properly to enter the land and make his proprietorship of it secure, he made the journey to Quincy and returned on foot. He improved a good farm and extended his landed possessions until he owned three hundred and fifty acres. He began life in Illinois in a log house, but later built a large frame house and ample barns and provided his farm with every essential to thorough and effective farming. He died at his homestead in 1864, at the ripe age of eighty-eight years. His children were named John (father of the subject of this sketch), Betsy, Jacob, George, Peter, Charles, Michael, Conrad, Rebecca, Catherine, Mary A, Barbara and Henry. The honored pioneer who was the father of these children was a lifelong member of the Lutheran church.
John Smith, father of Phillip A Smith, was born, reared and married in Pennsylvania. He remained at home until he was twenty-five years old, doing farm work and assisting his father about the distillery. He then married and began farming on his own account and in 1835 removed to Illinois and entered land in Knox County, where he improved a farm and became a citizen of prominence and influence. When he settled there the country was new and sparsely settled and there were few neighbors within many miles. His financial ability was small at the beginning, but he was a hard worker and he was determined to succeed. He paid for and improved his original farm and as opportunity offered bought other land adjoining it until he owned three hundred and fifty-four acres, all under profitable cultivation. On his land were a commodious residence, large barns and many outhouses besides three tenant houses. This fine property he acquired by hard work and good management, dealing fairly and honestly with all with whom he had business relations. He was born December 9, 1804, and died in October, 1886. His wife was born in December, 1811, and died in March, 1892. They were Lutherans throughout life. They had nine children, who were born in the order in which they are here named: Susan married a Mr Hendirckson. Leah died young. John and Mary J were twins, and Mary J married A Johnson. Margaret married J Hefferman. Phillip A is the immediate subject of this sketch. Sarah A married H T Sloan. Alexander is a prominent farmer of Little River township, Rice county, Kansas. Amanda married F Hurlocker.
Phillip A Smith was born, reared and educated in Illinois and remained under the parental roof until 1862, when he enlisted in Company K, Eighty-third Regiment, Illinois Volunteer Infantry, which was included in the Army of the Cumberland. He served continuously until after the close of the war and did much hard and dangerous duty, participating in long forced marches, in numerous skirmishes and in some of the most desperate battles of the war. During all that time he never shrank from duty and was never absent on furlough, and was never wounded or made prisoner. One can scarcely conceive of a more faithful soldier. When the war closed he was at Clarksville, Tennessee. He was mustered out of the service at Nashville, Tennessee, and sent to Chicago, Illinois, where he was paid off and honorably discharged. Then, after three years of unbroken absence from home, he returned and resumed farming with his father.
In 1866 Mr. Smith married and settled on a rented farm. He remained in Illinois until 1878, when he went to Kansas and bought land there. In 1879 he brought his family to the state by the ordinary modes of travel and settled where he now lives. He had made a good selection of land in the second bottom of Little River valley, where he had bought from a railroad company one hundred and sixty acres of smooth prairie, on which grew neither a tree nor a shrub. He built a small box house and got his family under its roof and then began breaking land. He carried the work of improvement and cultivation forward year after year, and achieved a satisfactory success. When he located in Rice county the country was new and its people were poor, and in many minds there was doubt that the country would ever “amount to much’” but the people were persevering and resourceful and studied the land and found out how to work it to good advantage and eventually prospered, and Mr. Smith prospered with his neighbors. By hard work and good management, he made his farm one of the best in the vicinity. It is fenced off into fields, pastures, orchard, and is dotted here and there with fine groves which he regards with much pride, for he sent back to Illinois and procured the maple seed and saw the trees grow where nothing had grown before. His house on this farm is two and a half miles south of the town of Little River, and it is surrounded by ample barns and other outbuildings. While giving his attention principally to farming, he raised some stock. A quiet man with no aspiration for political position, he has during all his mature life been a careful student of economic conditions. While he was firm in his convictions concerning questions of public policy, he was always open to new impression and, consequently, in 1900, those who knew that he had been reared a Democrat were not greatly surprised when he announced himself a Republican.
Mr. Smith married Miss Melissa Ebright, a woman of many good qualities of mind and heart, who was born in Ohio, February, 5, 1844, a daughter of E G and Ruth (Pyle) Ebright, who were natives respectively of Ohio and Virginia. Mr. and Mrs. Ebright removed to Indiana and later to Illinois and in 1857 they settled in Knox county in the state last mentioned, on a rented farm. Later they bought a farm where they lived many years and where Mrs. Ebright died. In 1880 Mr. Ebright went to Kansas, where he again married and settled in Rice county, on a farm on which he remained until his death, which occurred November 6, 1891. His first wife was a worthy and consistent member of the Methodist Episcopal church, and he was a devoted Christian and an active church worker and was a class-leader for more than forty years. A man of the broadest sympathy, he was always actuated by a feeling of charity toward all mankind. Mr. and Mrs. Ebright had only one child, Melissa, who married Phillip A Smith. Mr. and Mrs. Smith had children named as follows: Ada A, who died in 1889, aged twenty years; Emory E., a farmer in Little River; Delta O., and Ira F., farmers in Rice county; Lettie M., Sidney E. and Arthur J., members of the parental household. Mrs. Smith is a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, of the various interests of which Mr. Smith is a liberal supporter. Mr. Smith was identified with the Masonic fraternity, the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, and the Grand Army of the Republic. He passed away October 4, 1901.

"Grandma Phillips made your dad's sock when he was a little boy--Unc Robin had one exactly like it. When we married, Grandma made and gave me my sock. And ditto down the line as you kids were born and Lane and Mandy married. I think I heard her say one time, that the little decorations on the socks were purchased in a package. I haven't come across any more over at the brick house. I don't know if she made socks for her other daughter-in-law and grandchildren. But she sewed yours and put the decorations on them. Love, Mom"
