Buck, a huge, four-year-old half-Saint Bernard and half-Scottish shepherd dog, is living a life of civilized ease in California's Santa Clara Valley in the home of Judge Miller. It seems to be the best of all possible worlds, for Buck is the most prized animal that the Judge owns. Around this time, however, gold is discovered in the great North, and large dogs suddenly become tremendously valuable because these types of dogs are needed to haul the heavy sleds through the deep snow fields.
Who killed the Robin? Nursery Rhymes & their roots in historyIJ Banks
The background to some of our most popular British Nursery Rhymes. Apart from enjoying the Rhymes again, the historical detail adds a new dimension for many who wouldn't normally volunteer for a history lesson! I've presented this to mainly older audiences. It's a great way to think back to when they first heard the rhymes and when they shared them with their own children and grandchildren. You often find someone in the group who loves reading historical dramas and will add extra detail. With thanks to: Iona & Peter Opie's The Oxford Nursery Rhyme Book; Albert Jack's Pop Goes the Weasel; Roger Lancelyn Green Myths of the Norsemen; Felix Dennis's Nursery Rhymes for Modern Times and wikipedia. One of a series of decks given in Lancashire, UK and first presented in 2013. NB: There's more text shown on the slides than I'd actually use in practice but it gives you an idea of the voiceover.

OF THE LIBRARY OF SAINT GENEVIEVE WHERE HE

founded in the 5c. The current building was erected 1844-1851. Geneviève is

SECRETS, SILENT, STONY, SIT IN THE DARK PALACES OF BOTH OUR HEARTS: SECRETS WEARY OF THEIR

Latin: “mother love.” Ambiguous to Stephen because the phrase could mean the
mother’s love for her child (subjective) or the child’s love for its mother (objective).

THE MANTELPIECE AT THE SHAPELY BULK OF A MAN IN

Wales had become H.M. King Edward VII. He reigned from 1901, when his

wearing royal Stuart tartan filibegs.
23. "DO YOU KNOW THAT THE ORANGE LODGES"
(U2.270)
The Orange Institution (or Orange Order) is a Protestant fraternal organisation
based in N. Ireland and Scotland. It was founded in Co. Armagh in 1795, during the
inter-communal violence of the 1790s that opposed Protestants and Catholics. The
Order's name comes from William of Orange, the Protestant Dutch prince who
became William III King of England and Ireland 1689 - 1702.
24. "AGITATED FOR REPEAL OF THE UNION TWENTY YEARS
BEFORE O'CONNELL DID" (U2.271)
The Irish Roman Catholic bishops were far more energetic in their support of
O’Connell’s successful campaign for Catholic emancipation than they were of his
subsequent campaign for repeal of the Act of the Union. While some bishops
were suspicious of O’Connell and his methods, it is hardly accurate to say that they
“denounced” him.
25. "GLORIOUS, PIOUS AND IMMORTAL MEMORY. THE LODGE OF
DIAMOND IN ARMAGH THE SPLENDID BEHUNG WITH
CORPSES OF PAPISHES. HOARSE, MASKED AND ARMED, THE

The Orangeman’s toast to the memory of William of Orange, William III (1650-1702);
king of England (1689-1702), the patron “saint” of the radically Protestant Irish because
he saved Ireland from James II and completed the English conquest of Ireland
(effectively reducing it to the penal colony it was in the eighteenth century).
26. "THE DUKE OF BEAUFORT'S CEYLON, PRIX DE
PARIS, 1866." (U2.301)

WORD TAKE THE BULL BY THE HORNS. THANKING YOU FOR THE HOSPITALITY OF YOUR

GOLDSKINNED MEN QUOTING PRICES ON THEIR GEMMED
FINGERS." (U2.364)

29. "A WOMAN TOO BROUGHT PARNELL LOW. MANY ERRORS,
MANY FAILURES BUT NOT THE ONE SIN." (U2.394)
Charles Stewart Parnell (1846 - 1891) was an Irish political leader, M.P. and later
President of the Irish National Land League. In the early 1880s, Parnell became the
accepted leader of the Irish nationalist movement, quickly gaining political
momentum as Ireland's 'uncrowned king.'
30. KATHERINE O’SHEA
Katharine O'Shea (1845 - 1921), born Katharine Wood, was English. She was known as 'Katie' to her friends, and
'Kitty' to her detractors. She married Captain O'Shea in 1867, but the marriage did not go well, and by 1875 they were effectively
living apart. She met Parnell in 1880 and they started a steady relationship; 3 of Katharine's children (Clare, Katie, and a 3rd child
who died neonatally) were Parnell's.
31. "I AM A STRUGGLER NOW AT THE END OF MY DAYS. BUT I WILL FIGHT FOR THE RIGHT
TILL THE END.
FOR ULSTER WILL FIGHT
AND ULSTER WILL BE RIGHT." (U2.395)
When Gladstone introduced the Home Rule Bill in 1886, his Conservative opponents formed a political
alliance with the Ulster Protestants which was to last almost a century. "The Orange card was the one to
play", wrote a leading Conservative, Lord Randolph Churchill, who also coined the watchword "Ulster will
fight, and Ulster will be right." The bill was greeted by severe rioting in Belfast, the worst the city had seen.
