William Martin Dickson's life and career echo the familiar American theme of the self-made man. He was born at Lexington, Ind., in 1827 and lost his father, a farmer, at the age of 8. Despite financial hardship, Dickson managed to graduate from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio -- by sweeping out classrooms to pay tuition, according to family history. He then studied law while supporting himself as a schoolteacher and was admitted to the Kentucky bar in 1848. Over the next two years the ambitious young man put himself through Harvard Law School.
Returning to the midwest, he settled in Cincinnati and eked out a living as a teacher, tutor, and reporter for the Cincinnati Times. On October 18, 1852, he married Annie Marie Parker of Lexington, Ky., a first cousin of Mary Todd Lincoln.
Six months after his marriage, Dickson got his big break. Running as an underdog on the Independent ticket, he won election to prosecuting attorney of the Cincinnati police court. He resigned in April, 1854, to form a very successful law partnership with Alphonso Taft (father of the future President) and Thomas Marshall Key. At 31, he was appointed judge of the Common Pleas Court. Dickson maintained an active role in politics despite the fact that he never held elective office after his stint as public prosecutor. After serving as an Ohio presidential elector in 1860 he became part of inner Washington political circles, associating with Abraham Lincoln, Edwin M. Stanton, and Salmon Chase, and participating in the framing of the Emancipation Proclamation.
In the fall of 1861 Dickson became acquainted with General McClellan, who offered him a position as assistant judge advocate. Dickson declined the appointment, however, after learning first-hand of McClellan's timidity as a military leader and of his contemptuous attitude toward President Lincoln. A memoir of the entire episode written later in Dickson's life features colorful characterizations of McClellan and his circle, Lincoln, and the Washington scene early in the war.
Within a year of the war's end, Dickson, only thirty-nine, became ill from "nervous prostration." He removed himself from the legal and political scene, but maintained a keen interest which he expressed in his private correspondence and in essays and letters written for publication on such topics as reconstruction, black suffrage, and civil service reform. Dickson considered himself a genuine Republican, one of the founders of the party, and despaired at the corruption and machine politics which increasingly characterized his party during the Gilded Age of late nineteenth century America. A semi-invalid the last twenty-three years of his life, Dickson died October 15, 1889 in an inclined-plane railway accident in Cincinnati.
William Dickson combined worldly success and influence with personal avoidance of the spotlight. Whether due to illness or reclusive personality, he stayed on the sidelines rather than pursue a prominent military or political career, and became a most perceptive observer and critic of the leading political characters and movements of his day. His correspondents and personal associations were many, and included some of the leading figures of the era. Long-time friend George Curtis eulogized Dickson in Harper's Weekly as "one of that most valuable class of citizens who take the most active and intelligent interest in the observation of public affairs, which they seek to influence by the pen."
The Black Brigade of Cincinnati
During the summer of 1862, (a little more than a year after the start of the Civil War) the Confederate Troops were pushing further north than ever before. In August of that same year, citizens of Cincinnati, which was Ohio’s greatest metropolitan city at the time, felt the threat of war hit close to home. The Confederate troops had defeated Union troops in Richmond, Kentucky, and appeared to be moving further north into Ohio. Governor David Tod called upon all loyal Ohioans to help defend their southern borders. 15,766 white males reported for duty, and these minutemen earned the nickname "The Squirrel Hunters."
The Black Brigade of Cincinnati played a significant role in causing Confederate Troops to retreat. Yet, they aren’t given the same recognition as The Squirrel Hunters. This may be due to the fact the Civil War was considered a "white man’s war" until Abraham Lincoln’s emancipation of the slaves in September 1863. The Black Brigade consisted of 706 black males who were violently and brutally forced from their homes, work, and farms by Cincinnati Police. The forcefulness of the police is often blamed on Cincinnati Mayor George Hatch, who was rumored to have little opposition against the Confederate Army, and didn’t want help from the colored citizens. However, against Hatch’s wishes, General Lew Wallace ordered every able-bodied man to come together to protect the Queen City. The African- American men who were taken by the police were held overnight in a mule-pen with no way of contacting their families. The next day (Sept. 3) General Wallace appointed William Martin Dickson, a 34-year-old lawyer, to be in command of the Black Brigade. Dickson found his troops laboring at Fort Mitchell. They were weary, anxious about their families, and the cruel treatment they had received the night before. "Colonel" Dickson sent them home with orders to report back to him the next day at 5:00 a.m.
On September 4, approx. 700 black men reported for duty. These men served their community as if they had been formally sworn into the Army of Ohio. In reality however, these men were not an official military organization, but merely a working party that was divided into three small regiments and seventeen companies. These men marched under a flag bearing the name "The Black Brigade of Cincinnati," which is what they were called henceforth. The flag was the first to ever wave over colored soldiers helping to defend the free state of Ohio.
The men of the Black Brigade performed many jobs in defending Cincinnati. The main tasks they were in charge of were making military roads, digging trenches and riffle-pits, felling forests, and building forts and magazines. During their first week of service, The Black Brigade received no compensation for their labor. The second week they were given $1.00 per day, and the third week they received $1.50 per day. They never actually participated in combat; however, at one point they were only a mile away from the line of battle, unarmed, with only the cavalry between them and the Confederate troops. There was only one casualty among the Black Brigade, which was an accident that occurred while cutting down trees. By September 11, Confederate troops were retreating back into Kentucky. During a speech, General Wallace declared, "When the history of Cincinnati during the past two weeks comes to be written up, it will be said that it was the spades and not the guns that saved the city from attack by the Rebels."
By September 20, the Black Brigade was sent back home to their families. They presented Dickson with a ceremonial sword to thank him for his leadership and kindness. Colonel Dickson accepted the gift and led his troops through the streets of Cincinnati proudly, with music playing and banners flying.
After their service to the Black Brigade many of those men went on to become part of colored regiments for the Union Army. In fact, Powhatan Beaty, member of the Black Brigade was one of less than twenty African-American men to receive a Congressional Medal of Honor for his service and bravery in the U.S. Army.

Maintained by the LAFD Volunteers. A converted ambulance used for rehab at incidents. Despite being stored outside, it was spotless with a fresh coat of wax applied.
Despite being from Suffolk. OK, I was born in Norfolk, supported Norwich all my life, but I cannot ignore the fact that Lowestoft is inside the county border of Suffolk. No, despite being from Suffolk, I have never been to the Dedham Vale.
Well, apart from one time when I took the folks to Flatford Mill, and that is as constable as it gets.
So, I got the idea of spending a few days in East Anglia, see some churches, meet some friends and in Norfolk, maybe see a Kingfisher.
I wrote a list out, but the 'must see' was Stoke-by-Nayland.
So, after the slight detour to Boxted, I drove the few miles to Stoke, I saw the church tower from some distance away. I found a place to park near the short lane leading to the church. Right, should be good.
Then I saw the van parked outside the porch, but that would not be a problem, would it? But it did. The lighting company who were installing stage lights near the altar looked professional, and were just standing around talking when I went in. Can I get through here please? I asked. No, we're busy. But you're just talking, I won't be long. But we might hit you on the head!
In the end he relented but stated that he would not be held responsible for any accidents. It left a sour taste in my mouth to be honest, but the glory of the church more than made up for the rudeness.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Perhaps only St Peter and St Paul at Lavenham has a grander exterior than this mighty ship. But Lavenham's setting is thoroughly domesticated. Here, in the wild hills above the Dedham Vale, St Mary lifts its great red tower to heaven, and nothing can compare with it.
John Constable loved this tower, and it appears several times in his paintings, not always in the right place. Simon Jenkins, in England's 1000 Best Churches, says that when the bells of Stoke-by-Nayland ring, all Suffolk stops to listen. All Essex too, perhaps, since this church is right on the border between the two counties.
St Mary is pretty much all of a piece, in the 15th century, although there are some older bits, and a great deal of rather undistinguished 19th century work. But the glory of the church is the red brick tower, completed about 1470 and surmounted by stone spires, reminiscent of Bungay St Mary, away on Suffolk's northern borderland. There are fine views of this from many places, and from many miles away. Close to, it is immense; Stoke by Nayland is, after all, a small village rather than a town, and the setting of cottages only enhances the sense that this tower is enormous. The buttresses are laced with canopied image niches - how amazing it must have looked before the 16th century reformers removed all the statues! Tendring and Howard shields flag up the dead people we'll meet inside.
On the north side there is a dinky little Tudor porch (although it would be rather more imposing against a smaller church); but the south porch, which is the main entrance, is rather more of a curiosity. It was entirely refaced by the Victorians, and at first sight you might even think it 19th century, but the windows and corbels reveal to be one of the earliest parts of the church, an early 14th century addition to the building that was then replaced in the late 15th century. There are two storeys, and the parish library is still kept in the upper one. The corbels include an Annunciation, and what may be Moses. There are images below; hover to read captions, and click on them to see enlarged.
A serious distraction from all this is straight ahead of you. St Mary has the best late 15th century doors in Suffolk, eclipsing even Otley. The figures are remarkable; they stand proud of Gothic turrets and arches. They seem to represent a Tree of Jesse, effectively Christ's family tree, with Mary at the top and ancestors back into Old Testament times beneath. I think the figures in the border are disciples and apostles - in which case I could identify St Paul with his sword (although it might be St Bartholomew with his flencing knife) and St John the Evangelist. Medieval doors haven't survived at all widely in East Anglia, and it is exciting to see them at such close quarters.
Preserve the illusion of the medieval one moment longer. Step through the doorway, and turn immediately to the west. The tower arch is superb, a soaring void that lifts to roof level. The fine font on its huge pedestal seems tiny in such an open setting. The parish has done well in removing all the furnishings from the west end. This is quality work, on a cathedral scale. This vastness swallows all sound. The font stands in tiny isolation, although it is actually on a massive Maltese cross pedestal and would dwarf furnishings in many smaller churches.
The font is curious, to say the least. Four of the panels show conventional evangelistic symbols, but three of the other four are unfamiliar. One is an angel, but the others are a woman in a cowl carrying a scroll beside a tree, a man with a sack pointing to a book open on a shelf, and a man with a scroll at a lectern. The iconography is unfamiliar; I wondered if they might be representations of Doctors of the Church. Click on the images to enlarge them.
Looking up, you'll see that several 15th century corbels survived the Victorian restoration. One on the northside shows a ram caught in a thicket from the Abraham and Isaac story, and opposite it is a pelican in her piety. Images are in the left hand column. The splendid glass in the west window is by the O'Connors, and it may detain you for a moment, but eventually you must turn eastwards and realise that, from here, St Mary is all pretty much all Victorian inside. It is done well, it is well-kept and well-used, but it is all a bit dull I am afraid. You can't help thinking that the minister has a much better view than the congregation.
A couple of points of interest in the nave are an unusual memorial board for dead children - In Memory of Our Children Now With Jesus it says - which I liked very much, and a north chapel, now set out for weekday services and private prayer, that was an early 14th century chantry chapel for the Peyton family. A little ikon sits above the simple altar.
The church has two large memorials, one in the south chancel chapel and the other in the north chancel chapel. The one to the south is to Lady Anne Windsor, originally one of the Waldegraves who we have met at Bures, who died in 1615. Her alabaster effigy lies between her two daughters who kneel at her head and her son at her feet.
Across the chancel lies Sir Francis Mannock, 1634. It is believed to be by Nicholas Stone. The Mannocks were a recusant family of Giffords Hall, who were responsible for the survival of the old faith throughout the penal years at Withermarsh Green. There is an image of him in the column on the left.
Curiously, Sir Francis's wife Dorothea does not lie with him, but under a brass set in the floor not far away. It is offset by an architectural niche. Mortlock thought Stone may have been responsible for this as well, and it certainly suggests that the Renaissance did not entirely bypass protestant England. There are several other brasses, including a substantial one near the priest door to Sir William Tendring, one of the donors of the 15th century rebuilding. I do like the jolly lion at his feet. Don't miss the chrysom child engraved on a nearby ledger stone. His grim-faced wife Katherine lies nearby, and Mortlock points out how remarkable it is to see a figure of this period wearing rings.
The full drama of St Mary is best appreciated from a distance. But there is much here that makes a visit worthwhile, many of them apparently understated survivals that would shout in your face in a smaller church. I decided I liked St Mary a lot after all, and silently commended the parish for not installing one of those awful craft shops familiar from other large Suffolk churches. I stepped outside to the sound of a village football match immediately to the north of the graveyard. Very A E Houseman.

In 2012, the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) outlined that during international sports events such as the World Cup, reports of domestic violence in the household increase exponentially. Victim Support are determined to ensure that they’re able to raise awareness of the suffering of victims of this terrible crime, and are working with a range of local organisations and charities to help to ensure that while passions may be running high throughout the World Cup, victims of domestic violence are not forgotten.
A football match will be held on 10th May this year at Hyde FC’s football stadium, between a team of former Manchester City players and a combined team of local celebs, leading criminal justice and police staff and community volunteers.
Both teams will be competing for the Linzi Ashton Memorial Cup, in honour of Linzi Ashton who tragically lost her life to domestic violence homicide in 2013 following the injuries sustained from her physically abusive partner at the time. Members of Linzi’s family will be at the ground on the day of the game to present the winners with the trophy.
As well as Linzi’s family, members of the Mercian Regiment will attend the match on 10th May having recently returned from Afghanistan, talking to members of the public about their distinguished bravery in defending the country overseas.
The team of Manchester City Old Boys will be managed on the day by former Macclesfied Town Manager Derek Partridge, while the criminal justice staff will be drafting in the support of leading police staff such as ACC Garry Shewan.
A launch event on Thursday 21 March was attended by former Manchester United and City legends Mike Summberbee, Tommy Booth, Peter Barnes and Alan Grafton OBE, Greater Manchester Police and Crime Commissioner Tony Lloyd and former Happy Mondays singer Rowetta who is proudly supporting Victim Support’s domestic violence campaign. The winner’s trophy was also unveiled.
Tickets are on sale to the public at £5, with all proceeds going to victims of domestic violence. For tickets, please contact Angela Stewart of Victim Support on 0161 968 4986. Alternatively, tickets can be requested by contacting angela.stewart@victimsupport.org.uk or connecting via Twitter at @VS_Manchester
Speaking ahead of the launch, Victim Support’s Patron of this campaign to tackle domestic violence Rowetta said:
“I lived with domestic violence and for a long time, it felt like there was no way out for me or my children, we were drowning in it. Realising the only option was to leave was a difficult one, I left with nothing but now there’s so much more help out there and it’s so much easier to access. Victims need to know about organisations like Victim Support, that are there to help; they need to trust the police and report domestic violence”.
GMPCC Tony Lloyd, who will also be in attendance both at the launch and at the game added:
“This represents a great opportunity to bring together a range of services, local police, community volunteers and celebrities throughout Greater Manchester to raise the issue of domestic violence, particularly during events such as the World Cup when passions in the home are running high.
“Everyone remembers the tragic case of Linzi Ashton, and to be able to compete for a trophy in her honour is a fitting gesture on behalf of everyone involved.”

1. Guys, please go support this creation on Lego Ideas. It's totally awesome. I didn't make it btw. :)
Here's the link: ideas.lego.com/projects/58065
2. Does anybody know where I can buy normal quality, reasonably priced bricks off the internet? For example: 1x1 flat tiles, 1x2 flat tiles, etc.
I bought this lovely (and the spinning bowl too) at the Taos Wool Festival. It's so pretty in person! He had mushrooms, beehives, apples... all kinds of cute shapes. :) I just loved this pretty little acorn!

GMP officers recently joined representatives from Victim Support to launch the Birch Room at Rochdale police station yesterday as it became the second space to be dedicated to victim experience at the station.
The Willow Room has been a dedicated safe place in Rochdale police station since it opened in 2009 and will now be used solely by GMP whilst the Birch Room will be a specialist room dedicated to Victim Support.
Claire Powell, contract manager for Victim Support in Manchester said: "It's important that people affected by crime are given the support they need and the respect they deserve."
"We're delighted to have funded the furnishing of the Birch room, which we hope will aid the police and Victim Support staff to better support victims at Rochdale police station."
Victim Support has fitted the Birch Room with specialist equipment and chairs to create a ‘soft’ environment for people who need extra support such as victims of serious crime and children. It is designed to encourage vulnerable victims to feel at ease when receiving support at the police station, helping them on their journey to recovery.
Chief Superintendent Chris Sykes from GMP said: “Victims are at the core of everything that we do and we are constantly looking at ways to improve their experience when they come to us.
“The new Birch Room, supplied with furniture from Victim Support, will allow us to give our victims the time and space they need, in a comfortable and safe environment.”
Greater Manchester Police and Crime Commissioner Tony Lloyd said: “Rooms like these will help to create a supportive, comforting environment during an incredibly difficult time. Victims must be placed firmly at the heart of our criminal justice system, and that should start from the moment they report the crime or attend a police station.”
