<mask> (September 3, 1760 – June 3, 1839) was a farmer, lumberman and entrepreneur who founded what he named Columbia Falls Village, mostly known as  (or Wrightstown) and Wright's Village to others, the first permanent settlement in the National Capital Region of Canada. Wright's Town, later became incorporated in 1875 and renamed Hull, Quebec, and then in 2002, as a result of a municipal amalgamation, it acquired its present name of the City of Gatineau. Biography

<mask> was born in Woburn, Massachusetts into the family of <mask> and Elizabeth Chandler, a large and prosperous Woburn family that had been among the town's founders, 120 years before. <mask> was raised as a farmer. At the young age of 16, he was thrust into service for two years with the rebel forces in the first years of the American Revolution, leaving service as a sergeant. He fought in several battles including the Battle of Bunker Hill on June 17, 1775. Nicknamed "the Old Squire" by his employees and friends, <mask> was once described by John Mactaggart as "about six feet high, a tight man, with a wonderfully strange, quick reflective wild eye”.On May 16, 1782, <mask> <mask> married Abigail Wyman, a Woburn woman whose ancestors were among the founding families of Charlestown, Massachusetts in 1628. Charlestown would later become Boston. <mask> and Abigail would have a large family of 9 children. Their children (ages listed as of 1800, when they arrived in Hull Township) were: <mask> Jr. (Phil) 18, Tiberius (Bearie) 13, Abigail (Nabby, who died at 7 yrs. ), Mary (Polly) 10, Ruggles (Rug) 8, Abigail (Abbie) 6, Christopher Columbus (Chris) 2, Christiana (Chrissie) b. 1803 and Susana b. 1805.Settlement of Wright's Town
Feeling the strain of overpopulation in Massachusetts, <mask> first came to see the isolated and unsettled area of the Ottawa Valley in 1796, returned again in 1798, and once more in 1799. He finally decided that the best location for a new settlement would be next to the Chaudière Falls, near the intersection of the Tenàgàtino-sibi or Gatineau and Kitchi-sibi or Ottawa rivers, where he found thousands of acres of good soil and vast amounts of timber. He applied for the lands of the Township of Hull under the "leader and associates" regime and after swearing allegiance to the Crown, received the grant. <mask> used his natural leadership abilities to convince a group of Massachusetts settlers to come north with him. He sold his holdings in Woburn and led a group of 4 other families and 33 labouring men to the area, leaving on February 2, 1800, at the age of 39. With the help of a native Algonquin scout, who volunteered to help the group negotiate the treacherous voyage over ice from Kinodjiwan or Long-Sault at Carillon to the Akikodjiwan or Chaudière Falls, the group arrived on the western shore of the Gatineau River where it meets the Ottawa on March 7, 1800 and began to clear land. At first, their objective was to clear what was needed for homes and farmland for their survival.Two farms, the 'Gateno Farm' (1800), as he named it, and the 'Columbia Falls Farm' (1801) were the first to be cleared. Then, in 1801, at the foot of the Chaudière Falls, construction began on other enterprises. <mask> preferred to call the falls the Columbia Falls, but the name never stuck. The name Columbia, however, was repeatedly used throughout the new settlement: Columbia Pond (now, Leamy Lake), the Columbia farm, the Columbia hotel and Columbia road (now, St. Joseph blvd.). <mask>'s settlement quickly became Wright's Town with the shops, mills and other enterprises that were built so that the small community would not be dependent on the expensive practice of importing goods from Montreal. <mask> built a lumber mill, a hemp and grist mill and a smithy to fulfill their needs. When a fire burned down the smithy, he rebuilt it in stone, adding a trip hammer mill, four forges and four bellows operated hydraulically.He built a large bakehouse, shops for a shoemaker, a tailor, a bark grinding mill, as well as a tannery for curing leather. Always the opportunist, he also saw to it that a brewery and distillery were operating to slake the thirsts of the many employees he employed. Before long, he and his wife Abigail also saw to it that there was a teacher to teach all of the children in the community. The process was long and difficult and by 1806 <mask> had nearly exhausted his original capital of $20,000. In an effort to earn money and in order to keep his workers busy in the wintertime, he began the cutting of timber. Then, he attempted what was then thought impossible: to build a raft of timber and float it all the way to Quebec City. There, it would be sold for export to Britain.He built the first raft at the mouth of the Gateno River and named it "Columbo". Then, on June 11, 1806, he, his 18 yr-old son Tiberius and just 3 other men (London Oxford, a free black man & friend/associate of <mask>, Martin Ebert, and John Turner) began the treacherous journey down the Grand (Ottawa) River. Despite taking two months and encountering many hurdles he reached Quebec on August 12, and sold his 700 logs and 6000 barrel staves. The timber trade on the Ottawa River had begun. He founded several companies, among them a limestone quarry for building-stone and producing cement, The Hull Mining Company and P. Wright & Sons which, in particular, made him a great deal of money exporting timber, during the Napoleonic Wars when Britain was cut off from its traditional Baltic region suppliers. As a pioneer and an entrepreneur, <mask> had few equals. He was the point man for every builder, land speculator and government project in the region.According to John Mactaggart, the Royal Engineer in charge of the construction of the Rideau Canal and a contemporary of <mask> <mask>, <mask> should also be credited with having been the person who first suggested the building of the Rideau Canal, and once the canal's construction was under way, <mask> secured most of the contracts for supplies, materials and craftsmen. Despite his many achievements, he and his community faced near bankruptcy on several occasions. His earliest efforts to establish his settlement almost exhausted his entire capital and then, when his town was ravaged by a disastrous fire in May 1808, the village was practically wiped out. A despondent <mask> was ready to abandon the venture and possibly would have, if not for the encouragement he received from his sons <mask> Jr. and Tiberius to rebuild. They rebuilt the grist, hemp and sawmills, a larger foundry and the tavern within 6 months. In 1819, <mask> established the first passenger ship service on the Ottawa River. The first ship he used was the Packet, a four-ton vessel propelled by “sail and oars”.In 1822, he contracted Thomas Mears to construct a steamboat, which resulted in the Union of the Ottawa, which first set sail in 1823. The Union is described as “...measuring 125 feet on the deck, by 23 feet beam, drawing but little water, carrying 150 tons, and propelled by a 28-horsepower engine.”

<mask>'s son Ruggles travelled to Europe to learn Scandinavian timber methods, and armed with this knowledge, returned home and constructed the first ever timber slide in Canada on the north side of the Chaudière Falls in 1829, which allowed logs to be transported over the falls without having to use the previous method of waiting for calm water, which could take weeks. By 1820, Wrightstown was properly established. The population was 703, all either native New Englanders or first-generation Canadians. There were five mills, four stores, three schools, two hotels, two distilleries, and a brewery. For livestock, the count was 123 horses, 418 oxen, 503 cows, 505 pigs, and 558 sheep. Political career
<mask> was elected to the legislature of Lower Canada to represent Ottawa County in 1830 and he and his settlement both saw great success.He voted against the Ninety-Two Resolutions. He was also the leader of Freemasonry in the area for many of the villagers and surrounding communities. <mask> farms
Although he and his family spent their lives as lumber barons, <mask> <mask> was always a farmer at heart. He was a strong advocate for "scientific farming" and selective breeding, and he was the first person to import prize Devon and Herefordshire cattle to the Ottawa Valley. In 1813, <mask> sold 3,000 bushels of wheat in Québec for $3.00 a bushel (this astronomically high price courtesy of the War of 1812). By 1823, the <mask> family had created several large and lucrative farms, some of which covered most of the land occupied by present-day Hull & Aylmer. These included the Gatteno Farm near Leamy Lake, the Columbia Falls Farm (at <mask>'s village), The Columbia Farm (Chelsea Rd.), The Dalhousie Farm (by Leamy Lake), the Britannia Farm (on the Britannia Turnpyke), the Chaudière Farm (where Aylmer began), the second Gatteno Farm (east side of the Gatineau) and the Onslow farm (Township of Onslow). In fact, <mask>'s agricultural community, at the time of his death in 1839, was the most developed of Lower Canada. From Onslow Township (present-day Wyman) to present-day Buckingham, <mask> <mask> owned 36,978.5 acres (over 150 km2) The fame of Hull as an agricultural community in Canada, the US and Britain was well deserved. The Gatteno Farm was the site of the original clearing by the <mask> expedition in 1800, where stood <mask> <mask>'s first cabin he affectionately called "The Wigwam". His second home, a bigger home with a stone foundation, was built just north of the Wigwam. In 1801, at the Chaudière Falls, <mask> & his sons created the Columbia Falls Farm  and that is the location where Wright's Town grew up. In 1810, <mask> Sr. moved to his third home, built on the Columbia Falls Farm, on its 800 acres.He lived in that home until 1818, when he handed it over to his son Ruggles, along with the reins of all of the family's Chaudière operations. Eventually this property was purchased by E.B.Eddy and he tore down the <mask> home and built a mansion named "Standish Hall". That 1st mansion burnt down in 1900 and he built another that ultimately became the very popular Hotel in Hull by the same name, where Louis Armstrong and many big bands came to play. <mask>'s 4th home was built just west of the Standish Hall near the Chaudière Falls and was a grand home he named "The White House". The White House closely resembled the Wright Farm home in Winchester Massachusetts where <mask> grew up. Almost a perfect copy of <mask>'s White House can be found at the Billings estate in Ottawa and given that Braddish Billings started his career in the employ of <mask>, it may be no surprise that Billing's "grand, genteel" home, as he called it, would have been modeled after The Squire's, as <mask> was often referred to by his friends. When <mask> Sr. moved to the Columbia Falls Farm in 1810, the Gatteno farm was put in the hands of <mask> Jr. and <mask>, where Sarah, principally, raised animals and operated a distillery.It eventually ended up in the hands of Andrew Leamy who married Erexina <mask>, the daughter of Sarah and <mask> <mask>. The Columbia Farm of  was located at the junction of what would be the Brigham Road (now Gamelin) and Columbia Road (now boul. St. Joseph), and was operated first by <mask> Jr., then eventually owned by Thomas Brigham, who had married <mask> Sr.'s daughter, Abigail. The Britannia Farm, on the road leading to Aylmer, was owned by <mask> Jr. as was the Dalhousie Farm, south of what is now Leamy Lake. The Britannia Farm is now the site of the Royal Ottawa Golf Club, the Champlain & Château Cartier golf clubs. A farm at Lac Deschênes in Aylmer, called the Chaudière Farm, was established in 1818 by <mask> Jr. also a store and Inn was built at the landing. After <mask> Jr.'s tragic death in a stagecoach accident on Dec. 5th, 1821, <mask> Jr.s' heirs ended up losing ownership of the Britannia Farm and only retained ownership of the Gatteno Farm because of some dubious paperwork that <mask>. had fabricated.He confessed to this in a codicil to his Will, dated 1838. In 1826, <mask> Jr.'s widow, Sarah (Sally) Olmstead <mask>, married Nicholas Sparks (politician), who was then in the employ of P. Wright & Sons. Sparks would become a wealthy landowner & politician in the future Bytown. In 1822, <mask> Sr. gave the Chaudière Farms to Tiberius and Ruggles, and in 1823, he put the Chaudière Farm under the supervision of Charles Symmes, his nephew. The Dalhousie Farm went to Ephraim Chamberlain who was married to <mask> Sr.'s daughter Mary (Polly) <mask>. As well, there were additional Wright farms along the Mountain Road. Tiberius <mask> established the (second) Gatteno Farm in 1816, which his son Alonzo <mask> would inherit.By 1823, nearly  at this farm had been cleared. It occupied the site of the current Collège St-Alexandre in Limbour. Retirement & death
At the end of his life, <mask> Sr. retired to another farm, this time in Onslow Township, Lower Canada (now the province of Quebec). <mask> owned 12,000 acres that spanned the entire width of the County in the first six ranges of Onslow Township. In <mask>'s papers, in the National Archives of Canada, he frequently refers to his properties in Onslow, both his timber cutting operations and his farming activities there, listing acreages of oats and potatoes and his numbers of cattle. Unfortunately he did not state who was living on the properties or looking after his interests in the township. Joseph Bouchette's map, dated 1831, shows a few buildings and a road in the easternmost lots on the river, which is most likely to be the location of <mask>'s Onslow Farm.<mask> <mask>'s brother-in-law, Joseph Wyman, and his son Joseph Jr., who also came from Woburn, obtained several hundred acres in the west end of the township through <mask>. They named the new settlement Woburn after their New England home, and brought in other settlers. Woburn was later renamed Billerica (after Billerica, Mass.) and the name was eventually changed to Wyman. <mask> died on June 3, 1839 in Wright's Town, and is buried in St. James Anglican Cemetery, Gatineau (Hull Sector). He was survived by a large family, including his son Ruggles <mask> who invented the timber slide. <mask> <mask> is regarded as the founder of both the cities of Ottawa and of Gatineau.<mask> <mask> High School in Gatineau is named after him. Genealogical relationships
Interesting research through the years has established that through his own family and that of his wife, Abigail, <mask> <mask>'s family members are related to every President of the United States with the exception of Martin Van Buren and Donald Trump, and also related to the English Royal family

<mask> (born 2 August 1979) is an English former professional footballer. He played as a midfielder from 1996 to 2013. <mask> played as a professional in the Football League for Grimsby Town and Lincoln City between 1998 and 2003, after coming through the youth ranks at West Bromwich Albion. He then forged a career in non-league football and has played for Brigg Town, Harrowby United, Stamford, Spalding United, Bourne Town, Lincoln Moorlands Railway, Sleaford Town, Nettleham and Gainsborough Town. Career

Grimsby Town
<mask> first got his break in the professional game with West Bromwich Albion as an academy player in 1996, This was while his father, <mask> was the club's manager. With limited chances though he failed to make the grade and step up to the first team at Albion, prompting <mask> to eventually follow his father to Grimsby Town in 1997, when Alan re-took the managerial post at Blundell Park for the second time. He made his debut for Grimsby in a First Division defeat to Swindon Town on 24 April 1998.He would make one further appearance that season in another away defeat, this time to Watford. The following season, <mask> was eased into first-team action by his father, and was a regular presence on the bench during the 1999–00 campaign. During his time with The Mariners <mask> was cast aside by Grimsby supporters as a player who only featured professionally because his father was the club's manager. There may have been truth in that factor as following the departure of his father from his managerial role in September 2000, <mask> junior failed to be included in any of new manager's Lennie Lawrence's teams. With this he would not even make the Grimsby substitute bench during the 2000–01, and to add to this he also struggled to hold down a place in the club's reserve team and in July 2001, his contract with Grimsby was cancelled by mutual consent. Lincoln City
In July 2001, <mask> joined his father once again, agreeing a two-year contract with Lincoln City. He made his Football League debut, as a substitute, for Lincoln in the 3–0 home victory over Swansea City on 25 August and was a regular presence in the first-team squad during his first season, making a total of 31 league appearances, 12 of which came from the substitutes bench.In April 2002, due to financial constraints, <mask> departed Lincoln, and under new manager Keith Alexander chances were rare. <mask> would make only three league appearances, all from the substitutes bench, during the 2002–03 season with a further three appearances in cup competitions. The season did, however, bring <mask> his only goal in his professional career when he netted a free-kick in the 2–1 home defeat to Shrewsbury Town in the Football League Trophy on 12 November 2002. <mask> like at Grimsby also found cast aside by the Lincoln City supporters for only playing a part in first team affairs because his father was the team's manager. His career at Lincoln ended when he was arrested over allegations of theft from the club's ground in May 2003. In June 2003 he was sentenced to 120 hours of community service after pleading guilty to four counts of theft from his teammates. Non-League
<mask> then moved into Non-League football.He had an unsuccessful trial with Ilkeston Town, which was followed by a short spell with Brigg Town. He then joined Harrowby United in March 2004. In October 2005, he signed for Stamford, linking up with his former Harrowby boss Graham Drury. In February 2006, <mask> joined Spalding United on loan, debuting in the defeat to Kidsgrove Athletic on 19 February 2006; the move became permanent in April 2006. He was released by Spalding in September 2006 and was next heard of at Bourne Town, making his debut in the 4–0 home defeat to St Neots Town on 7 March 2007. After an unsuccessful trial with Boston United in August 2007, <mask> linked up with Spalding United for a second time. <mask> then moved on to play with Lincoln Moorlands Railway in 2008.He made a brief sojourn to Sleaford Town, appearing for the club in a 1–1 friendly draw with Lincoln United on 12 November 2008, before returning to Moorlands. In September 2010, he joined Sleaford Town debuting in the 1–0 United Counties Football League Premier Division home victory over St Ives Town on 11 September 2010. He moved on to play in the Lincoln Sunday League Premier Division for Welton Sports and joined Nettleham on the Saturdays. He then moved back to Lincoln Moorlands Railway for the remainder of the 2011–12 season before joining newly elected Lincolnshire League side Gainsborough Town in August 2012. <mask> failed to make a single appearance for Town and briefly re-joined Moorlands Railway where he eventually ceased playing competitive football in 2013. Personal life
He is the son of former Grimsby Town manager <mask>, he played for his father while at West Bromwich Albion, Grimsby and Lincoln. He is also the nephew of the former Derby County and Lincoln City player, <mask>.His elder brother Simon also had a short stint as a professional footballer and was contracted to Grimsby Town, West Bromwich Albion and Boston United but failed to make an appearance in the Football League. His career at Lincoln ended when he was arrested over allegations of theft from the club's ground in May 2003.

<mask> (October 12, 1782 – June 19, 1867) was a Democratic member of the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate, Territorial Governor of Wisconsin and a veteran of the Black Hawk War. His son was Augustus C<mask> with whom he served in the U.S. Senate, the first, and so far only, father-son pair to serve concurrently. <mask> was the half brother of Lewis F. Linn. James Clarke, the Governor of Iowa Territory was his son-in-law. Early life
<mask> was the son of <mask> and <mask>. Israel was from Connecticut and a veteran of the Battle of Brandywine, who came west to serve under his brother in the military command of George Rogers Clark. Nancy's family similarly moved west and settled in Kentucky, and for a period of time the Hunter family was part of the settler colony whose population was recruited to support the garrison at the confluence of the Ohio River and the Mississippi River, known as Fort Jefferson.<mask> was born in Vincennes (then under the jurisdiction of Virginia) when Nancy stopped over to visit Israel (on duty in Vincennes) on her way from Kaskaskia to Louisville. <mask> was the first child in what is now Indiana who was born to parents from the colonies, the other residents of Vincennes being of Indian and French Canadian heritage. <mask> was raised in Kentucky. In 1788 Israel abandoned the family and <mask> was raised by his mother. (Nancy later remarried, and had a son Lewis who himself became an elected official.) At age 14 <mask> moved to Missouri to live with his father, who ran salt and lead operations. Although <mask> returned to Kentucky occasionally (including to read law), his move to Missouri was permanent.In 1800, he married Christiana McDonald. In 1805 <mask> was appointed deputy sheriff, reporting to his father. In 1806 <mask> was recruited by Aaron Burr to participate in Burr's spurious attempt at creating a new country in the southwest, an incident known as the Burr conspiracy. <mask> and a companion went so far as to report to a concentration point for the affair in New Madrid. However, when they learned that Thomas Jefferson had deemed it a treasonous act, they immediately abandoned the effort and returned home. <mask> was indicted as a participant in the conspiracy, but the charges were dropped. In 1806 <mask> was named lieutenant of the militia.In 1813 he was appointed U.S. Marshal, as well as Sheriff of Ste. Genevieve County. Career

War of 1812

In the War of 1812, <mask> entered as a captain in the Missouri State Volunteers. He was part of a mounted company. He finished the war as a major general of the Missouri Militia. His crowning achievement was saving about 150 Miami Indians from certain massacre after their raid on the Boone's Lick settlement in the summer of 1814.<mask> emigrated with his large family and slaves inherited from his father to the U.S. Mineral District in early July 1827. He served as a commander of militia during the Red Bird uprising of that year, and in October settled a large tract in present-day downtown Dodgeville, known then as "Dodge's Camp." He worked a large claim until around 1830, when he moved several miles south in a beautiful forested area known still as "<mask>'s Grove." Here he began building what would become a large two-story frame house for his ever-growing extended family. It is worthy to note that, despite the Northwest Ordinance of 1787 banning slavery in the entire Northwest Territory, including Wisconsin, <mask> brought five black slaves from Missouri to work in his lead mines. Black Hawk War
<mask> rose to prominence during the Black Hawk War of 1832.As colonel of the western Michigan Territory Militia, <mask> brought a credible fighting force into being in a very short time. More than fifteen forts, fortified homes and blockhouses sprang up almost overnight. From these forts, <mask> and the mounted volunteers, with four companies of Territorial militia and one of Illinois mounted rangers, took to the field as the "Michigan Mounted Volunteers." <mask> and his men saw action at the battles of Horseshoe Bend, Wisconsin Heights, and Bad Axe. In June 1832, he accepted a commission as Major of the Battalion of Mounted Rangers, commissioned by an Act of Congress. Apparently, he took no prisoners. None of the 12 or 13 shot at Horseshoe Bend survived.The ranger experiment lasted a year, and then, in 1833, was replaced by the United States Regiment of Dragoons. <mask> served as colonel; one of his captains was Nathan Boone, Daniel Boone's youngest son. The United States Regiment of Dragoons was the fourth mounted Regular Army unit in United States Army history, not including the American Revolution, Continental Light Dragoons. In the summer of 1834, Colonel <mask> engaged on First Dragoon Expedition and made successful contact with the Comanches. He was an Indian fighter, most noted for his 1835 peace mission commissioned by President Andrew Jackson, who had called out the U.S. Dragoons to assist. Territorial governor
<mask> was the first Territorial governor of Wisconsin Territory from 1836 to 1841 and again from 1845 to 1848, an area which encompassed (before July 4, 1838, when Iowa became a territory) what became the states of Wisconsin, Iowa and Minnesota. In between his two terms as governor, <mask> was elected as a non-voting Democratic delegate to the Twenty-seventh and Twenty-eighth Congresses (March 4, 1841 – March 3, 1845) representing Wisconsin Territory's at-large congressional district.He declined the opportunity to have his name put forward for the Presidency of the United States at the 1844 Democratic National Convention. He was loyal to Martin Van Buren and both men opposed the annexation of Texas. Despite their efforts, James K. Polk, the Democrat who favored annexation, became President. Upon Wisconsin being admitted to the Union, <mask> was elected one of its first two senators. He served two terms. He turned down the appointment of Territorial Governor of Washington from Franklin Pierce in 1857. Death
<mask> died in 1867 in Burlington, Iowa.He is interred at the Aspen Grove Cemetery in Burlington. Legacy
In 1948, Iowa County presented a 160-acre estate to the State of Wisconsin which eventually became Governor Dodge State Park. Over the years, this park has grown to include 5,270 acres in the area <mask> once called his home. Dodge County, Wisconsin, Dodge County, Minnesota, and Henry County, Iowa, and Dodgeville, Wisconsin were named after <mask>. Fort Clark, the U.S. Army post built near the present-day location of Fort Dodge, Iowa, was renamed for Senator <mask> around 1850. His former cabin in Dodgeville, now known as the Dodge Mining Camp Cabin, serves as a museum and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. References

<mask> (17 March 1893 – 15 September 1970) was an Irish medium and parapsychologist. <mask>'s alleged psychic abilities were tested in the 1930s by <mask> and others. Rhine claimed that she had genuine psychic abilities, but subsequent studies were unable to replicate his results, and <mask>'s abilities were later shown to be consistent with chance guessing. <mask> elicited controversy after the R101 crash, when she held a series of séances at the National Laboratory of Psychical Research claiming to be in contact with victims of the disaster. <mask>, and others, investigated her claims, and found them to be valueless, easily explainable, or the result of fraud. <mask> was married three times, and had four children. <mask> died after a long illness on 15 September 1970, in Nice, France.Biography

<mask> was born in Beauparc, County Meath in Ireland on 17 March 1893. Her parents committed suicide and <mask> went to live with her aunt. <mask> admitted she had a very unpleasant childhood and because of the anger of her aunt would "separate into a world of her own" where she could dissociate from her surroundings. She claimed to have developed psychic ability in her youth. She later married and claimed to hear voices and show symptoms of a dissociative identity disorder. Both <mask> and her husband believed she was on the "brink of madness", however, <mask> came to accept her condition and took up trance mediumship. The psychologist <mask> wrote that <mask>'s claims of psychic ability could easily be explained by "megalomania... ideas of grandeur" as she experienced mental dissociation, hallucinations and had an eccentric disposition from her childhood.<mask> married three times. Her first marriage was to Clive Barry and they had three sons, all of whom died young, and a daughter, <mask>, who took interest in parapsychology. <mask> worked at a hostel for wounded soldiers during World War I. In 1931 she was invited to the United States by the American Society for Psychical Research and performed experiments for various psychical researchers in both America and Europe until the 1950s. <mask> was not a proponent of the spiritualist hypothesis and attributed her mediumship not to spirits but to the activity of a "magnetic field". <mask> wrote "In all my years' professional mediumship I have had no "sign", "test" or slightest evidence to make me believe I have contacted another world." She considered that her trance controls were personalities from her subconscious and admitted to the parapsychologist Peter Underwood, "I do not believe in individual survival after death".The main trance controls of <mask> were known as "Abdul Latif" and "Uvani". In 1934 <mask> voluntarily submitted herself to an analysis by the psychologist William Brown and by word-association tests by the psychical researcher Whately Carington. The tests had proven that her controls were secondary personalities from her subconscious, organised around repressed material. The psychical researcher Hereward Carrington with his colleagues also examined the trance controls in many séance sittings. They utilised instruments to measure everything from galvanic skin response to blood pressure and concluded from the results that the controls were nothing more than secondary personalities of <mask> and there was no spirits or telepathy involved. <mask> regarded her trance controls as "principles of the subconscious" formed by her own inner needs. She founded the Parapsychology Foundation in New York City in 1951.<mask> founded the Creative Age Press publishing house, which she later sold to Farrar, Straus and Young. She also edited Tomorrow magazine. <mask> died after a long illness on 15 September 1970, in Nice, France. Clairvoyance tests

<mask> took part in "clairvoyance" tests. One of the tests was organized by <mask> at Duke University in 1933 which involved Zener cards. Certain symbols that were placed on the cards and sealed in an envelope, and participants were asked to guess their contents. She performed poorly and later criticized the tests by claiming the cards lacked a psychic energy called "energy stimulus" and that she could not perform clairvoyance to order.The parapsychologist Samuel Soal and his colleagues tested <mask> in May 1937. Most of the experiments were carried out in the Psychological Laboratory at the University College London. A total of over 12,000 guesses were recorded but <mask> failed to produce above chance level. In his report Soal wrote:

In the case of Mrs. <mask> we fail to find the slightest confirmation of Dr. J. B. Rhine's remarkable claims relating to her alleged powers of extra-sensory perception. Not only did she fail when I took charge of the experiments, but she failed equally when four other carefully trained experimenters took my place. The experiments of Rhine and the Zener cards used in the 1930s were discovered to contain procedural errors and flaws, the results have not replicated when the experiments have been conducted in other laboratories.Science writer Terence Hines has written "the methods used to prevent subjects from gaining hints and clues as to the design on the cards were far from adequate." Leonard Zusne and <mask> wrote "the keeping of records in Rhine's experiments was inadequate. Sometimes, the subject would help with the checking of his or her calls against the order of cards. In some long-distance telepathy experiments, the order of the cards passed through the hands of the percipient before it got from Rhine to the agent." Controversy

On 7 October 1930 it was claimed by spiritualists that <mask> made contact with the spirit of Herbert Carmichael Irwin at a séance held with Harry Price at the National Laboratory of Psychical Research two days after the R101 disaster, while attempting to contact the then recently deceased Arthur Conan Doyle, and discussed possible causes of the accident. The event "attracted worldwide attention", thanks to the presence of a reporter. Major Oliver Villiers, a friend of Brancker, Scott, Irwin, Colmore and others aboard the airship, participated in further séances with <mask>, at which he claimed to have contacted both Irwin and other victims.Price did not come to any definite conclusion about <mask> and the séances:

It is not my intention to discuss if the medium were really controlled by the discarnate entity of Irwin, or whether the utterances emanated from her subconscious mind or those of the sitters. "Spirit" or "trance personality" would be equally interesting explanations – and equally remarkable. There is no real evidence for either hypothesis. But it is not my intention to discuss hypotheses, but rather to put on record the detailed account of a remarkably interesting and thought-provoking experiment. In 1978, paranormal writer <mask>. Fuller wrote a book claiming that Irwin had spoken through <mask>. This claim has been questioned. Magician <mask> analyzed the mediumship of <mask> and the paranormal claims of R101 and considered her to be a fraud.According to Booth, <mask>'s notes and writings show she followed the building of the R101 and she may have been given aircraft blueprints from a technician from the aerodrome. However, Melvin Harris, a researcher who studied the original scripts from the case, wrote that no secret accomplice was needed as the information described in <mask>'s séances were "either commonplace, easily absorbed bits and pieces, or plain gobbledegook. The so-called secret information just doesn't exist." Harris discovered that the original scripts of the séances did not contain any secret information and spiritualist writers such as Fuller had fabricated and misinterpreted content from these scripts. When experts and veteran pilots were shown the scripts they declared the information to be incorrect and technically empty. <mask>, who had interviewed witnesses and wrote an 80,000-word report on the case, concluded that the information from the séance was valueless, and that one should "best forget the psychic side of R-101; it's a dead duck— absolutely!"

<mask>, 1st <mask>, KG, was a close companion of Edward, the Black Prince, and an English peer during the reign of King Richard II. Birth and Ancestry

<mask> of Whitchurch Maund was the son of <mask> of Manne (Maune or Maund, Bodenham) and his wife Margaret Barre. His father came of age in 1323, and fought at the Battle of Crécy. His great-grandfather was <mask> through his first wife Alice Grandison, and this William was called to Parliament as 'Lord Deverois' on 6 February 1299. Rising debt related to the terms of the Dictum of Kenilworth led Baron <mask> to financial arrangements permitting the alienation of Lyonshall Castle, the caput of the Barony. His grandson, <mask> of Bodenham and Burghope seized the castle by force in 1305 and brought suit for its return, but his plea was denied, as his grandfather was still alive. Stephen would never regain Lyonshall in his lifetime, nor would he inherit the title upon William’s death.His younger brother, <mask> of Manne and son, <mask> of Bodenham, remained close throughout their lifetime united in their desire to regain their lost patrimony. <mask> of Whitchurch Maund would carry on this alliance with his cousin, William, and William's son, <mask> of Bodenham. As <mask> of Whitchurch Maund regained royal favour, he promoted the advancement of his cousin’s grandson, <mask> of Weobley, at court. The ancestral arms of the Devereux family, and that of the Devereux of Bodenham were: Argent, a fesse and in chief three roundlets gules. To distinguish themselves, the Devereux family of Whitchurch Maund added a mullet or. Career

A renowned soldier, he began his campaigns when he joined the expedition of Bertrand du Guesclin to assist Don Enrique of Trastamara against Pedro the Cruel, King of Castile. He was recalled in 1366 by the Prince of Wales, but joined Edward, the Black Prince, when he led an expedition to Spain in 1367 to restore the now deposed King Pedro of Castile, and <mask> distinguished himself at the victorious Battle of Nájera in northern Castile on 3 April 1367.Prince Edward returned to Aquitaine, where he made himself unpopular with the nobility by levying taxes to pay for his Spanish expedition. <mask> was fighting again beside him in Gascony (1368) when the province rose in revolt against the Prince, and was present in September 1370 when Edward besieged the city of Limoges and massacred 3,000 inhabitants at its fall. He was appointed Seneschal of Limousin in 1369/70, and in 1372 Seneschal of La Rochelle. After the Black Prince returned to England in 1371, <mask> (already a knight by this time) served under Guy de Bryan, 1st Baron Bryan, on a naval expedition in June 1371. Devereux campaigned in France during 1372, and was taken prisoner when the English were defeated by Bertrand du Guesclin at the Battle of Chizé on 21 March 1373 in Poitou. After being ransomed he was serving in the summer of 1373 in the retinue of <mask>, Duke of Lancaster. In 1375 Devereux was back campaigning in Brittany with the Duke of Brittany (The Duke later, 1379 or 1380, granted him 100 marks a year for life).<mask> served again under the Duke of Lancaster as Lieutenant/Sub-captain to Sir Aubrey de Vere in a naval expedition in 1378. He campaigned further in France in 1379 and 1380. Edward, the Black Prince died on 8 June 1376, probably from an illness contracted in Spain, and was buried in great splendour in Canterbury Cathedral. Based on instructions provided by the Black Prince on his deathbed, on 20 May 1377 <mask> was granted 200 marks a year for life for his services in Spain and Guyenne. Edward’s young son, Richard II, succeeded Edward III a year later, and <mask> was selected for the Continual Council on 20 July 1377 to rule during Richard’s minority (ended in 1388). <mask> was  sheriff of Herefordshire in 1376. He was appointed Constable of Leeds Castle in Kent (1 March 1377/8), Captain of Calais (17 January 1379/80), and supervisor of the castles and fortalices in the parts of Calais and Guînes (17 April 1381).<mask> served as a Commissioner to treat with the King of France on 20 May and 16 December 1381, 4 November 1383, 22 January 1385/6, 26 November 1388, and 8 April 1390. <mask> was a Commissioner to treat with the Count of Flanders on 1 June and 4 November 1383, 26 November 1388, and 8 April 1390. From 12 March 1387/8 to 1392 he was Constable of Dover Castle and  Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports, and from February 1387/8 until his death Steward of the King’s Household. Marriage

He married about 1377 Margaret de Vere, daughter of <mask> Vere, 7th Earl of Oxford, and Maud de Badlesmere, as her third husband. They had two children: <mask> (2nd Baron Devereux) about 1378, and Joan Devereux (3rd Baroness Devereux and Baroness FitzWalter) in 1380. <mask> had at least one illegitimate son before 1385 for whom he made in his Will an allowance of 100 marks for his marriage. Margaret de Vere had been married previously to Henry, 3rd Baron Beaumont, who had died on 25 July 1369.She had married a second time to Sir Nicholas Louvain of Penshurst in Kent who had died in 1375. She would survive <mask> as well. Her widow’s dower was assigned 25 Feb. 1393/4, and she died on 15 June 1398. Elevation to Peerage and Honours

<mask> was created a knight bachelor before 1377. He was subsequently summoned to Parliament on 28 September 1384 as Lord (Baron) Devereux. Although his great-grandfather <mask> had been summoned to parliament as "Lord Devereux" on 6 February 1299, this is considered as a new creation as none of the intervening generations between his death in 1314 and this creation in 1384 assumed the title or possessed the financial resources to support a barony. <mask> was further honoured on 10 September 1385 by his creation as a knight banneret and placement at the Standard, and honoured still further by his creation as a Knight of the Order of the Garter in April 1389.His arms are described as "argent, a fesse gules, in chief three torteaux" with a "mullet or." His son, <mask>, 2nd Baron Devereux, died without heirs, and the title passed to his daughter Joan, 3rd Baroness Devereux and Baroness FitzWalter. Upon her death, the Barony was absorbed into her children's title <mask>. Principal Landholdings

He acquired for life (with remainders to his wife and two children) licences on 24 Mar. 1381/2 and 11 April 1382 for the priories of Frampton, Panfield, and Wells from the Abbey of St. Etienne at Caen, and the priory of Newent from the Abbey of Cormeilles paying yearly 246L 13s 4d to the Exchequer. In November 1385 he purchased Kilpeck Castle for the life of Elizabeth (part of her dower lands), wife of Robert, Earl of Hereford. He acquired the manor of Penhurst in Kent by right of his wife in 1387, and was granted permission to embattle it on 21 September 1392.In 1388 with the exile of Robert de Vere, 9th Earl of Oxford, and execution of Simon de Burley, Lyonshall Castle and manor was forfeited to the crown. On 9 December 1390 <mask> was granted Lyonshall Castle and manor with a reference to a previous agreement between Burley and Devereux
. This castle had been held by the <mask> family until alienated at the death of <mask> in 1314. Shortly after regaining Lyonshall, <mask> contracted on 18 February 1391 with a mason from Hereford to repair and improve it. He possessed at death Lyonshall Castle, Dorstone Castle, and Whitechurch Maund (Bodenham) in Herefordshire; Donnington in Berkshire; Penshurst in Kent; and Dinton in Bucks. Death

<mask> died suddenly on 22 Feb. 1392/3, and was buried in the Church of the Grey Friars in London. His Will was dated June 1385 with codicil 22 Feb. 1392/3, proved 23 Feb 1392/3 at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London.He had directed that 40 marks be paid "pur mon sepulture" and was recorded as having one of the most stately funerals with provisions for tapers and torchbearers. His will directed that “6 tapers, in the form of a cross be placed on his hearse, and that 6 men, clothed in white, bear 6 torches, and that each of the men should receive eleven pence for his pains; that every poor man at his burial to have one penny to pray for his soul, and for all Christian souls; to the Grey Friars, for his burial there, XI marks. As soon as possible after his death he ordered that 1000 masses be said for his soul, and for the souls of his father and mother. To Margaret, his wife, he gave four dozen silver dishes and six chargers of silver; but after her death the same were to belong to <mask>, her son, and in the event of his death to Joan, his (testator’s) daughter.”

<mask> (born February 13, 1922) is an American Christian scholar, who is Emeritus Professor of Sociology at Marquette University. His areas of specialization included methodology in qualitative research, sociology of religion, sociology of American evangelicals, ageing and religion (gerontology). Biography
<mask> was born in Montevideo, Minnesota in February 1922 to Fred L<mask> and Anna E<mask> (née Sundberg). . He served in the US army from 1942-45. He was raised as a Christian and after World War Two he served as a pastor of a Baptist church. He graduated with a BA degree from Seattle Pacific University (1947), received an MA from the University of Washington (1949) and a PhD from the University of Minnesota (1952). He taught sociology for nineteen years at Bethel College, St. Paul Minnesota and in 1968 was appointed as Professor of Sociology at Marquette University until he retired in 1991.He founded the Association for the Development of Religious Information Systems (ADRIS), an organization dedicated to promoting a global network of religious information exchange. From 1962-64 he served as the editor of the Journal of the American Scientific Affiliation. He has also been president of the Association for the Sociology of Religion, the Religious Research Association and the Wisconsin Sociological Association. During the 1950s he wrote various academic articles that studied the role of religion and particularly of Christianity in the lives of aged persons. <mask> spent time as a Fulbright professor in the Netherlands and discussed sociological aspects of Dutch religious activities and Dutch society in the early 1960s. The 1960s witnessed the publication of his co-written book with Robert Gray The Church and the Older Person (1962). This book was based on the PhD research of both authors, and charted the sociological function of religion in the lives of older people.The book included a sociological survey of some 200 persons living in seven aged care facilities in Minneapolis and St. Paul, and interviews with older persons who participated in the activities of two large Chicago-area churches. Several of <mask>'s later publications have concentrated the use of sociological studies into the role of religion in the lives of older persons in urban America, as well as the implications of the aging process upon the function of Protestant clergy and the need for theological curricula to include practical study in gerontology. In the 1970s and 1980s, he played a major role in developing the National Interfaith Coalition on Aging. His literary output in the sociology of aged persons prompted James Seeber to describe <mask> as the "godfather of the religion and aging research field." Besides his contributions to the study of gerontology, <mask> also published works about the sociology of American religion, with a strong emphasis on the function of Protestant churches in American life. His first major study in this regard came in 1962 with the first edition of his textbook on the sociology of American church life The Church as A Social Institution (1962). This textbook was revised in the 1980s.This textbook synthesized research data regarding the demographics of religious affiliation for Roman Catholics, Protestants and Jews, and the effects that churches have both intended and unintended upon social institutions and individuals. He discussed the theoretical categories in the sociology of religion concerning the differences between church and sect, church as a missionary institution, the growth of churches, differences between liberal and conservative churches, the social psychology of religious conversion, interfaith conflict, role of clergy, and internal church conflict. In the second edition <mask> updated each chapter, included discussion on the social conflict surrounding cults and new religions, the resurgence of evangelical churches, the role of the "electronic" church (i.e. broadcasts by televangelists), the ecumenical movement, theories about church life-cycles, and research methodology. Other aspects of his work has touched on limitations in theory and method in the qualitative research of religion, particularly with the emergence of new religions, New Age spirituality, and the category "spiritual but not religious." During the 1960s, <mask> emerged as an evangelical intellectual who urged fellow evangelicals to grapple with the tools of the social sciences. He held genuine concerns about the need for social reform and wrote books addressing American evangelicals about the legitimate contributions that Christians may make in the public square.His book, Inasmuch: Christian Social Responsibility in the Twentieth Century, presented an argument that evangelism and social action were twin legitimate activities and he insisted that it was "a sin not be concerned about the needs of suffering mankind." In his retrospective study of American evangelical political thinking, Robert Booth Fowler described <mask> as a "reform-minded" evangelical who was "especially concerned about the poor and the need for active welfare programs." In the early 1970s, John Warwick Montgomery edited a series of seven books presenting evangelical perspectives on various current issues. <mask> contributed to this series his book The Great Reversal which carried forward his argument among evangelicals about the dangers of confusing theological conservative beliefs with conservative political beliefs. He rejected the dichotomy that evangelicals had become divided over to emphasize either evangelism or social concern:
  Some Christians may see the issue of relationships between evangelism and social concern—or, if you prefer, the personal and social dimensions of the Christian gospel—as an old and settled matter ... Each side suspects the Christian credentials of the other. The internal dispute threatens to complete the ruinous work that it has begun. The unresolved polarities in current Christendom are like dynamite; they have the potential for either constructive or destructive explosions.<mask> insisted that evangelicals were obliged to take action against a range of social evils. <mask> revised his work in 1977 and again in 2006. He also charted the sociological differences between Protestant Fundamentalists and Evangelicals. His interest in the subject of church conflict led to a series of lectures  about the tensions raised between the individual versus society that were subsequently published as Wholistic Christianity. In this text he examined the causes of dissent in churches that may be sorted as both internal and external factors. In his analysis he described internal dissent as a reflection of both theological and institutional factors that act upon individual church members, while external factors are understood as stemming from social change and shifts in social values on controverted topics such as peace-violence, ecology, poverty etc. As a practicing Christian, <mask> has had a long interest in the importance of a faith-commitment in the sociological work produced by religiously-oriented sociologists.He has been interested in cultivating a distinctly Christian approach to sociological work. <mask>, together with some like-minded Christian sociologists, has been interested in going beyond the traditional secular values that have been foundational in the discipline of sociology to include greater sensitivity to the researcher's personal world-view about the transcendent. In recent years, <mask> has addressed various critical challenges to Christian belief from the standpoint of an apologist integrating faith with insights from sociology. Bibliography

<mask> (born September 13, 1949) is an American businessman and investor and the founder of John W. Henry & Company, an investment management firm. He is the principal owner of Liverpool Football Club, the Boston Red Sox, The Boston Globe, and co-owner of RFK Racing. As of November 2021, Forbes estimated his net worth to be $3.6 billion. Early life
<mask> was born on September 13, 1949 in Quincy, Illinois. His parents were soybean farmers, and he split his time growing up between Illinois and Arkansas. His asthmatic condition at the age of 15 prompted his family to move to Apple Valley, California. After his graduation from Victor Valley High School in Victorville, he attended Victor Valley College, then the University of California (at Riverside, Irvine, and Los Angeles), where he majored in philosophy but did not graduate — partly the result of performing on the road in two bands, Elysian Fields and Hillary.<mask> started trading corn and soybean futures to learn the basics of hedging the price risk of holding an inventory of these commodities, whether in storage or out in the field. In 1976, a commodities broker at Reynolds Securities asked him to advise other farmers, but he declined. After spending a summer in Norway with his first wife, Mai, <mask> developed a mechanical trend following method for managing a futures trading account. He tested his trend-reversal method—which was never out of the market but always held a position (either long or short) in every one of the markets in the account's "basket" of commodities—"using his own money" (in the words of his marketing literature of 1983). When that test proved successful, he founded John W. Henry & Company in 1981, opened a small office across the street from the airport in Irvine, California, and began marketing his management to the largest commodity brokerage firms in America. That proved so successful by 1983 that he moved to considerably larger quarters at Fashion Island in Newport Beach. In 1989, <mask> moved to Westport, Connecticut.Two years later, <mask> established a second office in Boca Raton. John W. Henry & Company, Inc.
JWH was established in 1981 and began taking retail clients in 1982. The firm's management methods make mechanical, non-discretionary trading decisions in response to systematic determinations of reversals in each market's direction, with the explicit intention of precluding not only human emotion, but also any subjective evaluation of factors outside of price behavior (such as the so-called fundamentals), to trigger each decision to be long or short each market, or not. In March 2006, Boston estimated <mask>'s net worth at $1.1 billion but noted that his firm had recently experienced difficulties. On November 9, 2012, the firm announced that it would stop managing clients' money by December 31, 2012, and <mask> confirmed that total assets under the firm's management had fallen from $2.5 billion in 2006 to less than $100 million as of late 2012. Sports ownership

<mask><mask> grew up a fan of the St. Louis Cardinals, especially their star Stan Musial. After acquiring his fortune, his first foray into professional sports was in purchasing a Minor League Baseball team, the Tucson Toros of the Pacific Coast League, in 1989.He was also one of the founders of the Senior Professional Baseball Association, a winter league in Florida composed of retired major league players. <mask> co-owned the winning team in the 1989–90 season, the West Palm Beach Tropics, managed by former Boston Red Sox "Impossible Dream" (1967) manager, <mask>. <mask> sold his interest in 1990, and the league went out of business the following year. In 1990, <mask> negotiated to purchase the Orlando Magic NBA team, for a short time was the lead general for an expansion team which became the Colorado Rockies, and headed a group attempting to land an NHL expansion bid in Florida, which would eventually be given to Phil and Tony Esposito, who created the Tampa Bay Lightning. Subsequently, <mask> negotiated to buy the Miami Heat and later the New Jersey Nets. <mask> entered Major League Baseball with his purchase of a small interest in the New York Yankees in 1991. <mask> became the sole owner of the Florida Marlins in 1999, purchasing the club from <mask> for a reported $158 million.In January 2002, <mask> sold the Marlins in a multi-franchise deal to Jeffrey Loria, then owner of the Montreal Expos (now the Washington Nationals). Boston Red Sox
Following his sale of the Marlins, <mask> led a purchase of the Boston Red Sox with partners <mask> and the New York Times Company from the Yawkey Trust headed by <mask>. <mask>, as principal owner and <mask>, as chairman, assembled a front office team headed up by Larry Lucchino with the express goal of "breaking the Curse of the Bambino." He also hired baseball sabermetrics pioneer Bill James, whose work became widely known following the publication of Moneyball in 2003. <mask> accomplished his championship goal in the 2004 World Series, against his former childhood favorite Cardinals, and beat the Cardinals again in 2013. The team also won the 2007 World Series against a franchise with which <mask> had pre-expansion involvement, the Rockies, and the 2018 World Series against the Dodgers. <mask> is also responsible for saving Fenway Park from the wrecking ball.The previous Red Sox owners had planned on building a new Fenway Park next door, but <mask> chose to keep and renovate (including new seats over the Green Monster) the current Fenway Park, which celebrated its centennial in 2012. <mask> was in the news in August 2017, when he said the team would lead a campaign to change the name of Yawkey Way, where Fenway Park is located. The Red Sox had been the last team in Major League Baseball to integrate, and <mask> said, "I am still haunted by what went on here a long time before we arrived." The change was approved by the City of Boston in April 2018, and the name reverted to Jersey Street in May 2018. <mask> also enjoys playing baseball simulations, including Out of the Park Baseball. Fenway Sports Group

Henry and Werner established New England Sports Ventures in 2001. The company owns the Boston Red Sox, 80% of the New England Sports Network (which also carries the NHL's Boston Bruins), Fenway Park, Fenway Sports Management (a sports marketing and management firm), various real estate properties surrounding Fenway Park, and as of 2010, Liverpool Football Club.In 2009, the company made its first foray into European sports with an unsuccessful bid for the French Ligue 1 club Olympique de Marseille. In 2010, New England Sports Ventures changed its name to Fenway Sports Group. Liverpool Football Club
In October 2010 the Fenway Sports Group took over Liverpool F.C. The UEFA Financial Fair Play Regulations may have been a factor in the decision. The previous owners, Tom Hicks and George N. Gillett, Jr., had become extremely unpopular among Liverpool fans for their failure to deliver on the promise of a new stadium or on the promise that no debt would be placed onto the club, as well as disrespectful treatment of its manager and front office and for their allegedly misleading statements about planned and past investment in players. Having lost around £154 million on the pressured sale of their debt-ridden club, Hicks and Gillett announced that they would sue co-owners and creditors for at least $1.6 billion for the "extraordinary swindle" they suffered. In January 2013, Hicks and Gillett had lost a Court of Appeal case and agreed to drop the suit.On February 26, 2012 Liverpool won the 2012 Football League Cup Final at Wembley Stadium, beating Cardiff City 3–2 on penalties after the game finished 1–1 after 90 minutes and 2–2 after extra time. This was Liverpool's first trophy since the 2006 FA Cup Final win over West Ham United on May 13, 2006 at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. In May 2012 he made a controversial decision by firing manager and club icon Kenny Dalglish citing the club's poor league results. This was regarded as a poor decision by some football pundits such as Dalglish's friend Alan Hansen, given Dalglish's success in lifting the club from four points above the relegation zone to a cup win. In July 2012, after successfully persuading Brendan Rodgers to become the new manager, <mask> stated the reason behind parting company with Dalglish had not been due to failing to win the FA Cup, nor the Suarez case (as assumed by Manchester United manager, Sir Alex Ferguson), but due to the club's poor league performance in the second half of the 2011–12 season. Rodgers almost took Liverpool to their first Premier League title in over 20 years during the 2013–14 season; however, poor performances in the subsequent season and a bad start to the 2015–16 season saw <mask> sack Brendan Rodgers as Liverpool manager on October 4, 2015. On October 8, 2015, <mask> appointed Jürgen Klopp as the new manager of Liverpool F.C.The move was praised by Liverpool supporters and seen as a show of <mask>'s ambition for the club. Klopp led Liverpool to two finals during the 2015-16 season. In 2018 Liverpool reached the Champions League final for the first time in 11 years. In 2019 Liverpool reached the Champions League Final for the second consecutive year and won it, beating fellow English club Tottenham Hotspur, 2–0. Liverpool went on to win the Premier League title in the 2019-20 season; Liverpool's first league title in 30 years, and their first since the Premier League was formed. In April 2021, Liverpool were announced as a founding member of the European Super League, which would have effectively ended the pyramid system of European football and placed Liverpool in a closed league without prospects for meritocratic relegation and promotion.

The Globes story described <mask> as "a personally shy businessman with a history of bold bets." The Times story quoted Times spokesperson Eileen Murphy as confirming the sale deal. The stories noted that <mask> had initially been among a group of partners who had joined in bidding on The Globe properties, but ended up agreeing to acquire them individually.
