paragraph: Horie Kuwajirō

paragraph: Horie Kuwajirō (堀江 鍬次郎 1831 – 1866) was an early Japanese photographer and science writer.

paragraph: Horie studied "rangaku", specifically chemistry, at the Nagasaki Naval Training Center where J. L. C. Pompe van Meerdervoort was an instructor. In addition to chemistry, Pompe van Meerdervoort taught photography. When Swiss photographer Pierre Rossier arrived in Japan in 1858 on a commission from "Negretti and Zambra", he taught wet-collodion process photography to Horie and others, including his friend Ueno Hikoma (1838 – 1904) and Maeda Genzō (1831 – 1906). It is possible that Horie accompanied Rossier around Nagasaki while the latter took photographs of priests, beggars, the audience of a "sumo" match, the foreign settlement, and a group portrait of Philipp Franz von Siebold's son Alexander and several samurai.

paragraph: In 1860 or 1861 Horie bought a wet-plate camera. The purchase, which included photographic chemicals, was funded by the daimyō of the Tsu Domain, Tōdō Takayuki, and the price was 150 "ryō". Apparently the photographic equipment was of such interest to Ueno that he chose to become a subject of Tsu Domain in order to have access to it at the clan residence in Edo. In 1861 Horie photographed Ueno at work in the Tsu Domain's laboratory in Edo (now Tokyo). In 1862 Ueno and Horie co-wrote a textbook titled "Shamitsu Kyoku Hikkei" that comprised translated extracts from ten Dutch science manuals and which included an appendix titled "Satsueijutsu" [The Technique of Photography] describing techniques of collodion process photography as well as Nicéphore Niépce's asphalt printing method. The appendix also provided the first published account in Japan of lithographic printing. Horie himself taught pharmacology to Uchida Kuichi, who later became a celebrated photographer in his own right.

paragraph: Clyde Cook (actor)

paragraph: Clyde Wilfred Cook (16 December 1891 – 13 August 1984) was an Australian-born vaudevillian who went on to perform in Hollywood and whose career spanned the silent film era, talkies and television.

paragraph: Section::::Career in Australia.

paragraph: He was born to John and Annie Cook at Hamilton, near Port Macquarie, Australia. Cook moved with his family to Sydney when he was 6. He was already a skilled acrobat and dancer before he first appeared on stage in 1901 and within a few years he had developed a successful reputation as an all-round comic entertainer. In 1906, J. C. Williamson placed Cook under contract and he worked with the company until about 1911, when he departed for the United Kingdom, determined to try his luck in the London music hall scene. After some difficulty he succeeded and subsequently also worked at the Folies Bergere for 14 weeks. He returned to Australia in 1916.

paragraph: Although he appears to have expressed a desire to join up during the First World War, unspecified "physical defects" meant he was unable to join the AIF. Instead he devoted much time to fund-raising and entertaining soldiers. His trademark moustache also appeared for the first time during Australian performances in 1917. In 1918 he appeared in his first film, "His Only Chance" a J. C. Williamson's production made to support Red Cross fund-raising. Then in 1919, in the height of the spanish flu epidemic, Cook brought an action against J. C. Williamsons over the impact on performers contacts caused by their closure of theatres. The action failed. Soon after Cook left Australia for the United States.

paragraph: Section::::Move to the United States.

paragraph: Appearing at the New York Hippodrome from mid 1919 until early 1920, he was reportedly immediately a success - often styled as the "Inja Rubber Idiot" in his early US performances. During this season he was seen by film producer William Fox, who signed him for a series of comedy shorts to be made in Hollywood. He arrived there in 1920, making a string of comedies. In 1925 he was signed by Hal Roach and in 1927 by Warner Brothers. His output was significant through the 1920s and he worked with many of the other well known silent comedians who had transitioned from vaudeville. He was popular and well enough known to headline many of the comedies. He made a transition to supporting character roles in sound films, often playing cockney types in later life, as in the Bulldog Drummond film series, "Mysterious Mr. Moto" and as a London newspaper vendor in "A Ghost for Scotland Yard", a 1953 episode of "The Adventures of Superman".

paragraph: Cook married actress Alice née Draper in 1925 and a child, Julia, was born of the union. However, the marriage was not a success and they divorced acrimoniously in 1938.

paragraph: In 1948 Cook returned to Australia to make contact with his older brother Tom, with whom he had had no contact for twelve years.

paragraph: His final film was a part in the John Ford film "Donovan's Reef", made in 1963.

paragraph: Cook died on 13 August 1984, at his home in Santa Barbara.

paragraph: George E. Felton

paragraph: George Eric Felton (3 February 1921 – 14 June 2019) was a British computer scientist. He undertook pioneering work in the field of operating systems and programming software and is the father of the GEORGE Operating System. He held the world record for the computation of π.

paragraph: Section::::Early life, education, and military service.

paragraph: George Felton was born in Paris in 1921 to English parents - his mother, Muriel Felton, worked at Bletchley Park during the war. He was brought up in Paris and Menton but moved to England following the early death of his father. Felton attended Bedford School and Magdalene College, Cambridge where he read the Mathematical Tripos. His university studies were interrupted by World War II during which Felton joined the RAF with a commission. Exploiting his interest in electronics he served as a Radar engineer and instructor. He was demobilised and returned to Cambridge in 1946. At Cambridge he met his wife Ruth Felton at meetings of The Round Country Dance society.

paragraph: After commencing research in theoretical physics he switched his attention to Numerical Analysis and Programming, spurred on by his close contact with the construction of the EDSAC prototype computer in the Mathematical Laboratory, under Maurice Wilkes.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: In 1951 Felton joined Elliott Brothers in Borehamwood where he designed the programming systems and wrote software for the Nicholas and Elliott 402 computers. From mid-1954 at Ferranti's London Computer Centre Felton led the team developing innovative and comprehensive operating system and programming software for the Ferranti Pegasus and Orion computers. Hugh McGregor Ross records that "George Felton tells how, when Pegasus was new, he would borrow a front door key on Friday evenings so he could get in during the weekends. Then, alone in the building, he would start up the computer to sum a series to calculate the value of π to a then record 10,024 decimal places. This was a good test of the reliability of Pegasus". His computations of π were records in their day 1957. The team at Ferranti included Bill Elliott, Conway Berners-Lee, Christopher Strachey, Charles Owen, Hugh Devonald, Henry Goodman and Derek Milledge.

paragraph: The business computing division of Ferranti was merged with International Computers and Tabulators (ICT) in 1963, and ICT was in turn merged with English Electric Leo Marconi (EELM) computers in 1968 to form International Computers Limited (ICL). Following the mergers Felton ran the division responsible for the operating system and basic software for the 1900 Series. The new system was named George, was based on ideas from the Orion and the spooling system of the Atlas computer.

paragraph: Section::::Personal life.

paragraph: Josef Holeček (writer)

paragraph: Josef Holeček (27 February 1853, Stožice, Strakonice District – 6 March 1929, Prague) was a Czech writer of the realism and ruralism movements who wrote about his native South Bohemian Region, a journalist and translator.

paragraph: He studied in Písek, České Budějovice and Tábor (the oldest park there is named after him "Holečkovy sady") and since 1926 there is his monument there.

paragraph: Having befriended several South Slavs in Tábor, he became interested in their folklore and also in literature, art and history in general. After his studies, he worked in Zagreb and in 1875 he became a correspondent of the Prague newspaper "Národní listy" in the Balkans. He was a Slavic patriot; in 1887 he visited Russia and in 1889 he travelled through Anatolia and visited Istanbul.

paragraph: Section::::Works.

paragraph: His work focuses on the life in the countryside and emphasizes the power of love which can salve the bad things.

paragraph: BULLET::::- "Kalevala" – his translation (which keeps the original rhythm) is still the only Czech one. It was the first full translation of this epic poem into a Slavic language. Holeček was inspired to translate the work as he was generally interested in the art of the "small nations" (Josef Holeček, 1915). With the help of Leopold Geitler and Bohuslav Čermák (amanuensis in the Prague library) he learned Finnish from Finnish-German vocabularies found in Leipzig secondhand bookstores and from the 1818 German grammar book "Finnische Sprachlehre für Finnen un Nicht-Finnen..." by Johan Strahlmann which they found in Prague, as there was no bookshop connection between Prague and Scandinavia then. The translation was published at Holeček's own expense (and a grant of 500 zlatý from the Royal Czech Society of Sciences) between 1894 and 1895.

paragraph: Marinus Vertregt

paragraph: Marinus Vertregt (April 19, 1897 – May 1, 1973) was a Dutch astronomer.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Vertregt was born in Dordrecht, Netherlands. After elementary school he attended the Higher Technical school there and took a course in sugar technology.

paragraph: In 1917 he departed for the Dutch East Indies (now called Indonesia) and was employed at several sugar factories of the Handels Vereeniging Amsterdam (H.V.A.) as a chemist, becoming a head chemist after three years.

paragraph: Afterwards he was employed in the plantations of the same company’s factories and became a director of the sugar estate of Minggiran in Java in 1935. In 1923 he married Hillegonda Hendrika van Donkelaar and in 1928 their daughter Angenita was born.

paragraph: In 1943, during the Second World War, Vertregt, his wife and his daughter were put in a Japanese internment camp, until their liberation in 1945. During this time he was separated from his family as Japanese camps were segregated between men and women. In 1947 he returned to Indonesia to take on the job of director of the biggest sugar factory in Java, Djatiroto. In 1950 he retired on a pension and repatriated.

paragraph: In 1951 he was asked by the H.V.A. to direct the founding of a sugar estate in Wonji, Ethiopia. After a year he was forced, to his regret, to retire owing to ill-health.

paragraph: Section::::Career in astronomy.

paragraph: Returning to Holland, Vertregt sought other employment and in 1952 became director of the newly founded Institute for Technical Courses, a sister organisation of the "Bond voor Materialenkennis" (Society for the Knowledge of Materials). Beginning with 25 pupils, the Institute flourished and after a few years it had 2,600 pupils.

paragraph: From early youth Vertregt had been interested in astronomy and other sciences and soon after his repatriation he became interested in astronautics. In 1953 he became a member of the British Interplanetary Society (B.I.S.) and the Nederlandse Vereniging voor Ruimtevaart (Dutch Astronautical Society). In 1953 the American prof. dr. S.F. Singer released the idea of the "Mouse" (Minimum Orbital Unmanned Satellite Earth). Vertregt studied the design on request of the NVR. This lead in 1954 to a much improved design that was capable to circumvent the earth for a year! The new design, called "Muis" (Dutch for Mouse) would be using a four-step rocket and would stay in an orbit at a height of 500 km. In 1958 he was appointed "Fellow" of the BIS on account of several original scientific articles in the "Journal of the British Interplanetary Society" . In 1959 his book "Grondbeginselen van de Ruimtevaart" appeared, followed in 1960 by an English translation: "Principles of Astronautics" and in 1965 by a much enlarged second edition. At the date of the first edition, this book was the first to treat the whole field of astronautics in a succinct though scientific manner. A Russian(!) edition was also issued. In 1961 he was invited to attend the First International Symposium on Analytical Astrodynamics, which was held at the University of California. After the symposium he held a lecture on Interplanetary Orbits for personnel of Douglas Aircraft. In 1964, after 12 years as director of the institute, he retired permanently.

paragraph: In 1970 he was elected an Honorary Member of the Dutch Astronautical Society and in the same year an Honorary Member of the Bond voor Materialenkennis. He published many articles in the Journal of the B.I.S. and in the British periodical "Spaceflight", as well as in "Astronautica Acta" and several Dutch periodicals. Furthermore he read papers for several international Astronautical Congresses.

paragraph: Through his education and career, Vertregt gained an incentive to take an interest in many sciences and arts. During his study at the Technical School at Dordrecht, where he learned mathematics, chemistry, physics and mechanical and chemical engineering, he studied Greek and Latin for himself in order to get a better understanding of the special features of these civilisations. From early youth he had learned English, French and German, and later in life he added Italian and Spanish. Moreover, from youth he had an absorbing interest in history and read widely in it and the history of art. In this manner he got a broad viewpoint on a vast terrain of human endeavour. Wanting to make this accumulated knowledge useful, he described the history of the civilisation of the countries of the Mediterranean and Western Europe in his book "The Threefold Way". He also designed a Martian Calendar.

paragraph: Marinus Vertregt died in 1973 at Sliedrecht, Netherlands. In 1979 a lunar crater was named after him on request of the Dutch Astronautical Society.

paragraph: Tony Mullane

paragraph: Anthony John "Tony" Mullane (January 20, 1859 – April 25, 1944), nicknamed "Count" and "The Apollo of the Box", was an Irish Major League Baseball player who pitched for seven teams during his 13-season career. He is best known as a pitcher that could throw left-handed and right-handed, and for having one of the highest career win totals of pitchers not in the Baseball Hall of Fame.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: Born in County Cork, Ireland, Mullane emigrated to the United States in 1864. He made his major league debut with the Detroit Wolverines on August 27, , picking up his first career win 9–1 over the Chicago White Stockings.

paragraph: Mullane suffered an injury to his right arm and managed to teach himself to throw left-handed. He resumed throwing right-handed once the injury healed, and he even alternated throwing right-handed and left-handed in the same game, which was easy for him since he did not wear a glove. Mullane faced the batter with both hands on the ball, and then use either one to throw a pitch. It was over 100 years before another ambidextrous pitcher, Greg A. Harris, using a specially made ambidextrous glove, got to switch-pitch in one game shortly before he retired with the Montreal Expos. Harris was the only pitcher to do so in the 20th century. He had spent most of his career prohibited by the Boston Red Sox from pitching left-handed.

paragraph: In , Mullane moved on to the American Association and joined the Louisville Eclipse, where he started 55 of the team's 80 games and compiled a record of 30–24 with a 1.88 earned run average, the first of five consecutive 30-win seasons. On September 11, he pitched a no-hitter against the Cincinnati Red Stockings. He recorded 35 victories with the St. Louis Browns.

paragraph: In , Mullane attempted to sign with the St. Louis Maroons of the Union Association, a new independent league, even though under the reserve clause the Browns still had rights to his services. Threatened with banishment for defying his contract, Mullane relented. The Browns then sold him to the expansion Toledo Blue Stockings, with whom he won a career-high 36 games. The Browns attempted to reclaim Mullane after the 1884 season when both the Union Association and the Blue Stockings folded, but before the Browns could re-sign him under the rules, Mullane managed to sign with Cincinnati. For this action, the American Association suspended him for the entire season. Coming in the midst of his string of consecutive 30-win seasons, this may have cost Mullane a 300-win career.

paragraph: Following the suspension, Mullane joined the Cincinnati Red Stockings for the season and remained there for the next seven and a half years, over which he won 163 games. At the plate, in he recorded career-highs with a .296 batting average, a slugging percentage of .418, and 24 stolen bases in 196 at-bats.

paragraph: The season brought several rules changes, most notably the moving of the pitcher's mound an additional five feet from home plate. Mullane began the season a mediocre 6–6, and was traded to the Baltimore Orioles on June 16. He staggered to an 18–25 record with the Orioles in a little more than one full season over 1893 and . Mullane set a dubious record on June 18, 1894, by allowing 16 runs in the first inning of a game against the Boston Beaneaters. A month later he was traded again, this time to the Cleveland Spiders, for whom he played only four games.

paragraph: Mullane retired after the 1894 season with a record of 284–220 and a 3.05 ERA over a 13-year career. He also worked five games as an umpire. His 284 wins tie him with Ferguson Jenkins for 27th on the all-time list; he is fourth among eligible pitchers not in the Hall of Fame, behind only Roger Clemens (354), Bobby Mathews (297) and Tommy John (288). Mullane still holds the record for the most wild pitches in major league history, with 343.

paragraph: Section::::Post-career.

paragraph: After his baseball career, Mullane went on to join the Chicago Police Department, from which he retired in 1924. Mullane died at the age of 85 in Chicago, and is interred in an unmarked grave (grave 2, lot 48, block 5, section 58) at Holy Sepulchre Catholic Cemetery located in Worth, Illinois. He was inducted into the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame in 2010.

paragraph: Ed Pimm

paragraph: Ed Pimm (born May 3, 1956 in Rock Tavern, New York), is a former driver in the CART Championship Car series.

paragraph: He raced in the 1984–1988 seasons, with 42 career starts, including the 1985–1987 Indianapolis 500s. He drove two CART events for Gary Trout Motorsports finishing 12th at Mid-Ohio and 14th at Elkart Lake. He finished in the top ten 12 times, with his best finish in 3rd position in 1985 at Michigan. In 1987 and 1988, he also made 5 Winston Cup starts. Earlier in his career, he was the 1983 US Super Vee champion.

paragraph: Section::::NASCAR career.

paragraph: In 1987 and 1988, he also made 5 Winston Cup starts. He debuted in 1987, driving for Curb Racing at Talladega. Starting a year-long best 30th, Pimm led one lap and settled for a 27th-place effort after an engine issue. His run earned him two more races for the team, finishing 34th after an engine issue at Daytona and then crashed to 42nd in the season finale at Atlanta Motor Speedway.

paragraph: Pimm returned to the team in early 1988, running two races. He made the prestigious Daytona 500, starting 40th but ending with a career-best 24th place showing. It was also his only race in Cup competition that he was running at the end. Two weeks later, at Rockingham, Pimm started a career-best 29th before crashing to 34th.

paragraph: Pimm never returned to NASCAR after that race.

paragraph: Ralph Burns

paragraph: Ralph Jose P. Burns (June 29, 1922 – November 21, 2001) was an American jazz pianist, composer, and arranger.

paragraph: Section::::Early life.

paragraph: Burns was born in Newton, Massachusetts where he began playing the piano as a child. In 1938, he attended the New England Conservatory of Music. He admitted that he learned the most about jazz by transcribing the works of Count Basie, Benny Goodman and Duke Ellington. While a student, Burns lived in Frances Wayne's home. Wayne was already a well-known big band singer and her brother Nick Jerret was a bandleader who began working with Burns. He found himself in the company of such famous performers as Nat King Cole and Art Tatum.

paragraph: Section::::Career.

paragraph: After Burns moved to New York in the early 1940s, he met Charlie Barnet and the two began working together. In 1944, he joined the Woody Herman band with members Neal Hefti, Bill Harris, Flip Phillips, Chubby Jackson and Dave Tough. Together, the group developed a powerful and distinctive sound. For 15 years, Burns wrote or arranged many of the band's major hits including "Bijou", "Northwest Passage" and "Apple Honey", and on the longer work "Lady McGowan's Dream" and the three-part "Summer Sequence".

paragraph: Burns worked with numerous other musicians. Stan Getz was featured as a tenor saxophone soloist on "Early Autumn", a huge hit for the band and the launching platform for Getz's solo career. Burns also worked in a small band with soloists including Bill Harris and Charlie Ventura.

paragraph: The success of the Herman band provided Burns the ability to record under his own name in the 1950s. In the 1950s Burns played nightly from 5pm -9pm in The Baroque Room at Oscar's Delmonico restaurant in Downtown Manhattan. He collaborated with Billy Strayhorn, Lee Konitz and Ben Webster to create both jazz and classical recordings. He wrote compositions for Tony Bennett and Johnny Mathis and later Aretha Franklin and Natalie Cole. Burns was responsible for the arrangement and introduction of a string orchestra on two of Ray Charles's biggest hits, "Come Rain or Come Shine" and "Georgia on My Mind". In the 1990s, Burns arranged music for Mel Tormé, John Pizzarelli, Michael Feinstein and Tony Bennett.

paragraph: In the 1960s, Burns was freed from touring as a band pianist, and began arranging/orchestrating for Broadway including the major show "Chicago", "Funny Girl", "No, No, Nanette", and "Sweet Charity". In 1971, Burns first film assignment was for Woody Allen's "Bananas". Burns worked with film-director Bob Fosse and in 1972 won the Academy Award as music supervisor for "Cabaret". He composed the film scores for "Lenny" (1974) and Martin Scorsese's jazz-themed "New York, New York" (1977). Fosse again employed Burns to create the soundtrack for "All That Jazz" for which he also won an Academy Award in 1979. He then worked on "Urban Cowboy" (1980) and in 1982, Burns received another Academy Award nomination for his work in "Annie".

paragraph: His work for the stage was also notable. "Baryshnikov on Broadway" in 1980 earned Burns an Emmy Award for his work. Burns won the Tony Award for Best Orchestrations in 1999 for "Fosse" and posthumously in 2002 for "Thoroughly Modern Millie", which also garnered him the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Orchestrations. The latter were won with Doug Besterman. From 1996 until his death, Burns restored many orchestrations for New York City Center's Encores! series — revivals of both his own shows and shows originally orchestrated by others. Burns was inducted into the New England Jazz Hall of Fame in 2004.

paragraph: Section::::Personal life.

paragraph: Burns carefully hid his homosexuality throughout his life. In 2001, Burns died from complications of a recent stroke and pneumonia in Los Angeles, California and was buried on April 13, 2002 in Newton. He was survived by one sister, Nancy Lane (Burns), and three brothers, Leo, Joe, and Gael.

paragraph: Rev. Ab. Jeremias Schröder OSB (born 8 December 1964 as Maximilian Schröder in Mindelheim) is the Archabbot President of the Congregation of Sant'Ottilia.

paragraph: Archabbot Jeremis Schröder was born on 8 December 1964 in Mindelheim. His father was merchant and his mother chemist. He grew up in Bad Wörishofen and Dorschhausen. He graduated from the "Gymnasium" in 1984 where he had a focus on modern languages. Then he joined the St. Ottilien Archabbey. After the novitiate he took his vows to join the order in 1985. From 1985 to 1990 he studied philosophy and theology in Rome and from 1990 to 1994 history in Oxford. In 1992 Schröder was ordained to the priesthood. From 1992 he was also "spiritual" (spiritual assistant) of the Benedictine Sisters of Stanbrook.

paragraph: From 1994 to 2000 he was in the St. Ottilien Archabbey secretary of archabbot Notker Wolf, zelator, keeper of the archives and editor of the magazine "Missionsblätter" and of the yearbook of St. Ottilien ("Jahrbuch St. Ottilien"). Furthermore, he was engaged in the involvements of his order in China. In October 2000 he was elected as archabbot of the St. Ottilien Archabbey. As archabbot he was also the leader of the congregation of Missionary Benedictines. In 2012 the personal union of the two positions was split and he resigned from the leadership of the abbey but remained praeses of the Ottilien Congregation.

paragraph: Section::::Fourteenth Ordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops.

paragraph: Jeremias Schröder was selected to take part at the synod as one of the elected representatives of the Union Of Superiors General. He reported that the Catholic fraternal orders considered before the synod to give half of their ten seats to the female orders that are not eligible to vote. However, the Unione Superiori Generali finally concluded that it would be not enough if the female orders should get seats of the fraternal orders but that they should get their own seats.

paragraph: John Thackray Bunce (11 April 1828 – 28 June 1899) was a British journalist and author, and was editor of "Aris's Birmingham Gazette" from 1860 to 1862 and of the "Birmingham Post" from 1862 to 1898.

paragraph: Section::::Early years.

paragraph: Bunce was born in Faringdon, Berkshire, to John Bunce, watchmaker and silversmith, and his wife, Mary, née Clapham. Mary's mother's maiden name had been Thackray. The family moved to Birmingham when Bunce was nine and he attended Gem Street elementary branch school, operated by the Foundation of the Schools of King Edward VI.

paragraph: Section::::Journalism.

paragraph: Aged 14, Bunce left school and began work as a printer's apprentice with the "Midland Counties Herald", a newspaper. He was given a job as a reporter after writing a letter, anonymously, calling for Birmingham to have an art gallery. He left the "Herald" in 1852 to work for another Birmingham paper, "Aris's Birmingham Gazette", and was promoted as its editor in 1860. The "Gazette" followed a tory line and Bunce was increasingly of a liberal persuasion, eventually resigning after hearing an address by John Bright. In 1862, he became editor of the more liberal "Birmingham Daily Post".

paragraph: An antiquarian, he wrote a number of books on the history of Birmingham institutions and people, including St Martin's church, the artist David Cox and industrialist Josiah Mason, as well as books for children.

paragraph: He also wrote for "The Fortnightly Review", "Macmillan's Magazine", and "National Review" and became a founding fellow of the Institute of Journalists (later the Chartered Institute of Journalists) in 1889.

paragraph: Section::::Politics.

paragraph: In 1877, Bunce was a founder member of the National Liberal Federation. He resigned his positions in Liberal Party organizations in 1886, during internal disputes over Irish home rule, but lent his support to the imperial policies of Joseph Chamberlain in 1888.

paragraph: Section::::Civic life.

paragraph: Retaining ties with his former school, Bunce became a governor and bailiff of the King Edward VI Foundation's Grammar School. He sat on the committee that developed Birmingham's first Central Library, and was an organizer of the National Education League.

paragraph: He advocated for the foundation of the Birmingham Municipal School of Art, and spoke in favour of both education and "free and open" careers for women.

paragraph: Bunce served as a trustee of Mason Science College (the predecessor college of the University of Birmingham), and as a magistrate, and was a patron of Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery, and a fellow of the Royal Statistical Society.

paragraph: Section::::Legacy.

paragraph: Bunce, having retired in 1898, died on 28 June 1899 at home, of heart failure. He had been due to be given an enamelled silver commemorative casket, created by Florence Camm and Violet Holden, to mark his being granted the freedom of the city of Birmingham on 21 March 1899. The casket is now in the collection of Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery.

paragraph: His wife, Rebecca Ann (1823/4–1891, née Cheesewright; they married on 5 July 1849), predeceased him. They are both buried at Edgbaston Old Church. Two of their daughters were the artists Kate Bunce and Myra Bunce. Two other daughters died in infancy, another as a young woman.

paragraph: Their home, Longworth, at 24 Priory Road, Edgbaston, was designed for Bunce by John Henry Chamberlain. It is now part of the Priory Hospital and grade II listed.

paragraph: A collection of manuscripts acquired by Bunce, as well as some of his own correspondence, is now in the Cadbury Research Library at the University of Birmingham.
