texts:
 the Codex Ephraemi, and the Friderico-Augustanus, was of service when it appeared in 1850, but, being stereotyped, was not greatly improved in subsequent issues. Its imperfections, even within the limited field it covers, may be judged by the aid of Eberhard Nestle's appendix to the 6th issue (1880). Besides this may be mentioned editions of the New Testament apocrypha, De Evangeliorum apocryphorum origine et usu (1851); Acta Apostolorum apocrypha (1851); Evangelia apocrypha (1853; 2nd ed., 1876); Apocalypses apocryphae (1866), and various minor writings, partly of an apologetic character, such as Wann wurden unsere Evangelien verfasst? (When Were Our Gospels Written? ; 1865; 4th ed., 1866, digitized by Google and available for e-readers), Haben wir den echten Schrifttext der Evangelisten und Apostel? (1873), and Synopsis evangelica (7th ed., 1898). Facsimile of manuscripts

Having been killed off in Doomwatch right at the end of Series One in a bomb explosion, at his request, <mask> became a pin-up and a household name, following up with starring roles in several BBC serials, including television adaptations of the novels Sentimental Education (1970) and Jude the Obscure (1971). In 1972–1973 he portrayed Charles Rolls in the miniseries The Edwardians. He starred in the very first episode of the British series Thriller in 1973. He also appeared in the 1975 series Looking for Clancy, based on the Frederic Mullally novel Clancy.For several years <mask> continued as a television regular, with occasional forays into film, as the Austrian composer Gustav Mahler in the Ken Russell biopic Mahler (1974) and Captain Walker in Russell's film version of Tommy (1975). His role in Tommy had few lines, speaking only during the overture with Ann-Margret, he is primarily seen through the mind of his son as played by Barry Winch (Young Tommy) and Roger Daltrey. He then played Jesus of Nazareth in Jesus of Nazareth (1977) following a successful second audition with Franco Zeffirelli. The four-part television film had an all-star cast, including Laurence Olivier as Nicodemus, Ernest Borgnine as the Roman Centurion, Stacy Keach as Barabbas, Christopher Plummer as Herod Antipas, Michael York as John the Baptist, Ian McShane as Judas Iscariot, Rod Steiger as Pontius Pilate and James Mason as Joseph of Arimathea. For this role, <mask> was nominated for a BAFTA award, and collected the TVTimes Best Actor award for the same performance. His completist performance is frequently considered one of the best portrayals of Christ. In 1978, <mask> took the leading role of Richard Hannay in the third film version of The Thirty Nine Steps.It met with modest success, and critics

texts: compared <mask>'s portrayal of John Buchan's character favourably with those of his predecessors. His characterisation proved to be enduring, as almost ten years later a television series entitled simply Hannay appeared with <mask> back in the role (although the Buchan short stories on which the series was based were set in an earlier period than The Thirty-Nine Steps). Hannay ran for two seasons. In 1980, <mask> appeared in the film Harlequin playing the Harlequin of the title, who seems to have the power to cure the son of a powerful politician. For this performance, he won the Best Actor Award at the Paris Film Festival. In 1982, he won Best Actor at the Venice Film Festival for his role in Imperativ. In 1984, <mask> made his U.S. film debut in What Waits Below (also known as Secrets of the Phantom Caverns).In 1986, <mask> narrated and co-starred in William C.

In 1993–95, he was the voice actor of Dr Livesey in The Legends of Treasure Island. <mask> then agreed to a request from his old friend and golf partner, comedian Jasper Carrott, taking the part of an incompetent detective in a succession of sketches that formed part of Carrott's television series. The Detectives proved to be popular and was later turned into a sitcom, <mask>'s first and only venture into this genre. <mask>'s distinctive voice is frequently heard on voice-overs, advertisements and as a narrator of television programmes such as Great Crimes and Trials and The Century of Warfare and World War II in HD Colour.

The 1977 starring differed in more points from the Gospel's historical account: the Virgin Mary without the angel of the Annunciation, Jude the Iscariot's regret immediately after the arrest of Jesus, as well as Jesus who brings the sole horizontal branch of the Holy Cross on the Calvary.Personal life
<mask> met his future wife, the Pan's People dancer Barbara "Babs" Lord, backstage at the BBC. In 1975, shortly before he was due to start filming for Jesus of Nazareth on location in Tunisia, the couple were married.

"The Early Edition" performed its last show at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe on 25 August 2012. After 7 years of Theatres and Festivals Andre & Marcus have called time on one of the most interesting live shows ever created. In 2007 <mask> launched a new show with fellow comic Phill Jupitus. In "Waiting For Alice", the pair play Tweedledum and Tweedledee, sitting around and contemplating their wonderland and what may lie outside. The Winter of 2009 found <mask> re-treading the boards in his first Pantomime in 26 years, in "Robin Hood" at the Theatre Royal, Norwich.He then returned to the same theatre for 2010 to play Billy Trott in "Jack & The Beanstalk and again in 2011, this time playing Muddles Pickles in "Sleeping Beauty"; In 2012 he returns to the Theatre Royal to play Wishee Washee in "Aladdin".

In 2010 he could be seen in the films Believe: The Eddie Izzard Story and The People vs. George Lucas.In 2011 <mask> created a new show for the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, PokerMen, an interesting chat show with a difference. <mask> would give 3 comics £60 but that would be their stake money in an hour game of poker, consequently one of them would walk away with £240 but within the hour would be trash-talk, shouting, jokes, arguments but was always good fun . Also this year he played Oliver Hardy in Laurel & Hardy at York Theatre Royal. In 2012 <mask> appeared in 2 more films: No Prisoners and the highly acclaimed Scottish indie movie Electric Man. In 2015 <mask> began teaching BA Applied Drama undergraduates in stand-up comedy at St Mary's University in SW London. This annually-recurring role has led to several alumni becoming cabaret performers. In 2020, during the UK Coronavirus lockdown, <mask> produced a stand-up teaching module for  The Prince's Trust.Comedy History

In 2015, Time Out magazine asked numerous British comedians to name their top 10 comedians: only a few could name pre-1980 performers. Shocked and annoyed by this lack of recognition for past masters, <mask> created the website 'mislaidcomedyheroes.com', a guide to the old, forgotten or lost heroes of comedy which was launched in 2016. To accompany the website, a YouTube channel of bygone comedy classics - also known as Mislaid Comedy Heroes - was created in 2017 and has led to <mask> appearing on many TV comedy history programmes to share his knowledge with viewers. In May 2015 <mask> had the honour of being initiated into the Grand

Catherine Monvoisin, or Montvoisin, née Deshayes, known as "<mask>oisin" (c. 1640 – 22 February 1680), was a French fortune teller, commissioned poisoner, and professional provider of alleged sorcery. She was the head of a network of fortune tellers in Paris providing poison, aphrodisiacs, abortion, purported magical services and the arranging of black masses, with clients among the aristocracy, and became the central figure in the famous affaire des poisons. Her purported organization of commissioned black magic and poison murder was suspected to have killed 1,000 people, but it is believed that upwards of 2,500 people might have been murdered. Life
Catherine Deshayes married Antoine Monvoisin, who was active as a jeweller and silk merchant with a shop at Pont-Marie in Paris. When her husband's trade business led to bankruptcy, <mask> Voisin supported the family by practising chiromancy and face-reading. In addition to being a fortune teller, she was also active as a midwife, which developed into providing abortions. Her business as a fortune teller gradually developed into manufacturing and selling purported magical objects and potions,  arranging black masses and selling aphrodisiacs and poison to profit from her clients' wishes upon their future.From the late 1660s, <mask>oisin had become a wealthy and famous fortune teller with clients among the highest aristocracy of France. Among her clients were Olympia Mancini, comtesse de Soissons; Marie Anne Mancini, duchess de Bouillon; Elizabeth, comtesse de Gramont, and François-Henri de Montmorency, duc de Luxembourg. She resided at

 Villeneuve-sur-Gravois, where she received her clients all day, and entertained the Parisian upper class society at parties with violin music in her garden at night. <mask>oisin regularly attended service at the church of the Jansenist abbé de Sant-Amour, principal of the Paris University, and the godmother of her daughter was the noblewoman Mme de la Roche-Guyon. She supported a family of six, including her husband, her mother and her children. She was known to have at least six lovers: the executioner Andre Guillaume, <mask>, vicomte de Cousserans, the count <mask>e, the alchemist Blessis, the architect Fauchet and the magician Adam Lesage. At one point, Adam Lesage tried to induce her to kill her husband, but while he was initially successful, she changed her mind and aborted the process.<mask> Voisin was interested in science and alchemy and financed several private projects and enterprises, some of them concocted by con artists who tried to swindle her. She was known to suffer from alcoholism, was apparently abused by <mask>, and engaged in several conflicts with her rival, the poisoner Marie Bosse. Abortion provider

<mask> Voisin apparently started to include abortions, illegal at the time, for profit within her services as a midwife, and her clients eventually included wealthy members of the aristocracy. She had a network of abortion providers working for her, notably Catherine Lepère, who stated that she received her clients from <mask> Voisin, who referred clients to her and took the majority of the profit as fee. Marie Bosse claimed that fetuses, who had been aborted late in the

 pregnancy, were burned in a furnace at the house of <mask> Voisin and buried in the garden of her house. However, as Louis XIV gave the order that the part of <mask> Voisin's enterprise which had to do with abortions should not be pursued further, this part of her business is the least investigated and unknown one, and the claims of Marie Bosse therefore remain unconfirmed. Fortune telling

<mask> Voisin later said that as a fortune teller she had merely used and developed what God had given her.She stated that she was taught the art of fortune telling at the age of nine, and that after her husband became ruined, she decided to profit by it. She developed her art by studying the modern methods of physiology, and the art of reading the client's future by studying their face and hands. She spent a great deal of money in order to provide an atmosphere which would make her clients more inclined to believe her prophecies: for example, she had a special robe of crimson red velvet embroidered with eagles in gold made for a price of 1,500 livres to perform in. In 1665 or 1666, her divination was questioned by the  Congregation of the Mission at the Saint Vincent de Paul's order and she was called for questioning, but <mask>oisin defended herself successfully before the professors at Sorbonne University and was allowed to continue her business as a fortune teller. Professional sorcery

Her business as a fortune teller gradually developed into a business of professional alleged black magic. During her activity as a fortune teller, she noticed similarities among her clients' wishes about their future:

texts: almost all wanted to have someone fall in love with them, that someone would die so that they might inherit, or that their spouses would die so that they might marry someone else. <mask>oisin decided to profit financially from her clients' wishes by offering services of purported magic to make their wishes come true.Initially, she told her clients that their wish would come true if it was also the will of God. Secondly, she started to recommend to her clients some action that would make their dreams come true. These actions were initially to visit the church of some particular saint; then she started to sell amulets, and gradually, she recommended more and more alleged magical objects or rituals of various kinds. For those clients who wished for someone to fall in love with them, she manufactured love powders: the bones of toads, the teeth of moles, Spanish fly, iron filings, human blood and mummy, and the dust of human remains were among the alleged ingredients of the love powders concocted by <mask>in. Finally, her most radical and expensive recommended practices were the black mass, which she arranged for clients for profit, during which the client could pray to Satan for their wish to come true. During some of these masses, a woman performed as an altar, upon which a bowl was placed: a baby was held above the bowl, and the blood from it was poured into the bowl. Whether the baby in question was actually killed on this occasion, or whether the baby was already dead by natural causes, such as being stillborn, could vary.She had several associates working for her arranging and participating

 in her professional magic services, notably Adam Lesage, who performed alleged magical tasks; and the priest Étienne Guibourg and abbé Mariotte, who officiated at the black masses. Poison commission

La Voisin finally took the step from purported magical potions, amulets and rituals, to selling aphrodisiacs to those who wished for someone to fall in love with them, and fatal poison was given to those who wished for someone to die. The art of poisoning had become a regular science at the time, having been perfected, in part, by Giulia Tofana, a professional female poisoner in Italy, only a few decades before <mask> Voisin. <mask> Voisin provided a large variety of poisons for her clients and had a network of poison providers working for her, notably the apothecary Catherine Trianon. Connection to Madame de Montespan

The most important client of <mask> Voisin was Madame de Montespan, official royal mistress to King Louis XIV of France. Their contact was often performed through the companion of Montespan, Claude de Vin des Œillets. Montespan was alleged to have hired <mask> Voisin in 1667 to arrange a black mass.This mass was celebrated in a house in Rue de la Tannerie. Adam Lesage and abbé Mariotte officiated, while Montespan prayed to win the love of the king. The same year, Montespan became the official mistress of the King, and after this, she employed <mask>oisin whenever a problem occurred in her relationship with the King. In 1673, when the King's interest in Montespan seemed to wane, Montespan again employed <mask>oisin, who provided a series of black masses officiated by Étienne

texts: Guibourg. On at least one occasion, Montespan herself acted as the human altar during the mass. <mask> Voisin also provided Montespan with an aphrodisiac, with which Montespan drugged the King. During the King's affair with Madame de Soubise, Montespan used an aphrodisiac provided by Voisin's colleague Françoise Filastre and made by Louis Galet in Normandy.In 1677, Montespan made it clear that if the King should abandon her, she would have him killed. When the King entered into a relationship with Angélique de Fontanges in 1679, Montespan called for <mask>in and asked her to have both the King and Fontanges killed. <mask>oisin hesitated, but was eventually convinced to agree. At the house of her colleague, Catherine Trianon, <mask>oisin constructed a plan to kill the King together with the poisoners Trianon, Bertrand and Romani, the last being the fiancé of her daughter. Trianon was unwilling to participate and tried to make her change her mind by constructing an ill-fated fortune for her, but Voisin refused to change her mind. The group decided to murder the King by poisoning a petition, to be delivered to his own hands. On 5 March 1679, <mask>oisin visited the royal court in Saint-Germain to deliver the petition.That day, however, there were too many petitioners and the King did not take their petitions, which foiled her plan. Upon her return to her home in Paris, she was castigated by a group of monks. She handed the petition to her daughter Marguerite Montvoisin and asked her to burn it, which she also did. The next day, she made plans to visit Catherine Trianon after mass, to plan the

 next murder attempt upon Louis XIV. Arrest

The death of the King's sister-in-law, the duchesse d'Orléans, had been falsely attributed to poison, and the crimes of Madame de Brinvilliers (executed in 1676) and her accomplices were still fresh in the public mind. In parallel, a riot took place where people accused witches of abducting children for the black masses, and priests reported that a growing number of people were confessing to poisoning in their confessions. In 1677, the fortune teller Magdelaine <mask> Grange was arrested for poisoning, and claimed that she had information about crimes of high importance.The arrest of the successful fortune teller and poisoner Marie Bosse and Marie Vigoreaux in January 1679 made the police aware that there existed a network of fortune tellers in Paris who dealt in the distribution of poison. On 12 March 1679, <mask>in was arrested outside Notre-Dame de Bonne-Nouvelle after having heard mass, just before her meeting with Catherine Trianon. In April 1679, a commission appointed to inquire into the subject and to prosecute the offenders met for the first time. Its proceedings, including some suppressed in the official records, are preserved in the notes of one of the official court reporters, Gabriel Nicolas de la Reynie. Investigation and trial

At the arrest of <mask>oisin, her maid Margot stated that the arrest would mean the end of a number of people in all levels of society. <mask>oisin was imprisoned at Vincennes, where she was subjected to questioning. On 27 December 1679, Louis XIV issued an order that the whole network should be exterminated by

texts: all methods regardless of the rank, sex, or age.The arrest of <mask>oisin was followed by the arrest of her daughter Marguerite Monvoisin, Guibourg, Lesage, Bertrand, Romani and the rest of her network of associates. <mask> Voisin was never subjected to torture: although a formal order was issued giving permission for the use of torture, it was made clear that the order was not to be put in effect, and consequently it was never made use of. The reason it suggested to have been the fear that she might reveal the names of influential people if she was questioned under torture. Aware of her alcoholism, however, her interrogators reportedly did not limit her access to alcohol but instead kept her in a state of drunkenness during her interrogations. Her confrontations with other accused, particularly those with Adam Lesage and Marie Bosse, was especially effective. Initially, she claimed to have referred all those clients wishing to buy poison to Marie Bosse. In March, however, she named Marguerite Leféron and Francoise de Dreux as clients, and the 10 October, she admitted having sold poison and magical services to several members of the royal court; she also described the development of her career.<mask> Voisin denied ever meeting or serving Montespan. She did admit that "Paris is full of this kind of thing and there is an infinite number of people engaged in this evil trade" but refused to mention further clients nor did she mention having arranged or participated in black masses. She once mentioned to the guards that the question she feared most was that they would ask her about her visits to

 the royal court. It is likely that she was referring to Montespan as her client and her attempt at murdering the King, and that she feared that such a confession should result in her execution for regicide. Her list of clients, the arranging of the black masses, her connection to Montespan and the murder attempt on the King were not revealed until after her death, when it was stated by her daughter and confirmed by the testimonies of her former associates. She also denied claims of using her oven to burn the bones of aborted infants that were too large for the grave area in her garden. She also counterclaimed any usage of poisons and that she only possessed purgatives for personal use or for her family.Another accusation she denied includes injecting syringes with fatal liquids into the bodies of pregnant women to "empty" them, after which the aborted foetuses were subsequently buried in the same manner at the garden grave. Trial and execution
On 17 February 1680, <mask>in was put on trial, and was convicted of witchcraft and sentenced to execution by burning two days later. In the days following her verdict until her execution, she was formally interrogated under torture, and the official document stated that she was tortured enough to beg for mercy. However, while an official permit of torture was issued, the police were given to understand that the permit was not to be used, and Gabriel Nicolas de la Reynie stated that <mask>oisin was in reality never subjected to torture. Madame de Sevigne, who observed <mask>oisin shortly before her execution, described her to be able to move so freely

 and so seemingly healthy that it did not seem possible for her to have been subjected to torture. These final interrogations did not reveal anything new. <mask>oisin was executed in public on the Place de Grève in Paris on 22 February 1680.On her way to her execution, she reportedly pushed away the priest, and when fastened on the stake, she desperately pushed away the hay which was piled up around her. In July, her daughter Marguerite Monvoisin revealed her connection to Montespan, which was confirmed by the statements of the other accused. This caused the monarch to eventually close the investigation, seal the testimonies and place the remaining accused outside of the public justice system by imprisoning them under a lettre de cachet.

Film
 Viviane Romance portrayed <mask>oisin in the 1955 film The Case of Poisons. Anémone portrayed <mask>oisin in the 1997 film Marquise. <mask> Voisin was the basis for the character portrayed by Suzanne Clément in the 2017 TV series Versailles. Literature
<mask> Voisin and her organisation has been described in several literary works:

<mask> (王晙) (died 732), formally Duke Zhonglie of Zhongshan (中山忠烈公), was an official of the Tang dynasty and Wu Zetian's Zhou dynasty, largely known for his service as a general during the reign of Emperor Xuanzong, when he also briefly served as chancellor. Background
It is not known which year <mask> was born, although the timeframe suggests that he was born in the reign of Emperor Gaozong. His family was from Cang Prefecture (滄州, roughly modern Cangzhou, Hebei), and traced itself to the Northern Wei official <mask> (王叡), whose descendants served as officials for the Northern Wei, Sui, and Tang. <mask>'s grandfather <mask> (王有方) served as a prefectural prefect, and <mask>'s father <mask>o (王行果) was a well-known sheriff of the capital county Chang'an County. <mask>o died when <mask> was still young, and <mask>, despite his father's death, was studious. <mask>g was impressed and stated, "This child will glorify this household." After he grew up, he was known for openness in his character and dislike for details.He passed the imperial examinations in his youth and thereafter served as the sheriff of Qingwan County (清苑, in modern Baoding, Hebei). During Wu Zetian's reign
As of the reign of Emperor Gaozong's wife Wu Zetian (r. 690–705), <mask> served as Dianzhong Shi Yushi (殿中侍御史), a low-level imperial censor and also carried the honorific title of Chaosan Daifu (朝散大夫). On an occasion when the chancellor Wei Yuanzhong was commissioned to defend against an Eastern Tujue incursion, Wei was unable to defeat Eastern Tujue forces and blamed the lack of success on his deputy Han Sizhong (韓思忠), requesting that Han be executed. <mask>, before Wu Zetian, argued that Wei, as the

 commander, should not divert all of the responsibility on his deputy. He also pointed out that Han was not in command and was brave and intelligent. Han was able to escape death, but as a result, <mask> was sent out of the capital to serve as the magistrate of Weinan County (渭南, in modern Weinan, Shaanxi). When Wei was falsely accused by Wu Zetian's lovers Zhang Yizhi and Zhang Changzong of plotting treason in 703, however, <mask> submitted a petition arguing that Wei was innocent, impressing his former colleague Song Jing for his fortitude.During Emperor Zhongzong's second reign, Emperor Shang's reign, and Emperor Ruizong's second reign
Near the end of the Jinglong era (707-710) of Wu Zetian's son and successor Emperor Zhongzong, <mask> became the commandant at Gui Prefecture (桂州, roughly modern Guilin, Guangxi). Prior to <mask>'s term of service, the soldiers stationed at Gui Prefecture often depended on food supplies from Heng (modern Hengyang, Hunan) and Yong (永州, roughly modern Yongzhou, Hunan) Prefectures. <mask> built forts and levees and encouraged farming, ending the need for food supply shipments. At one point, he requested to leave his office and return home, and the people of the prefecture petitioned the emperor (probably Emperor Zhongzong's brother Emperor Ruizong, who displaced Emperor Zhongzong's son Emperor Shang in 710 after Emperor Zhongzong's death) to keep him at Gui Prefecture, and the emperor agreed. During Emperor Xuanzong's reign
In 712, Emperor Ruizong passed the throne to his son Li Longji the Crown Prince, and Li Longji took the throne as Emperor Xuanzong. However, Emperor Ruizong continued to exercise most of the imperial powers as Taishang

Later in 712, Emperor Xuanzong's associates, the chancellor Liu Youqiu and the general Zhang Wei (張暐), believing that Princess Taiping's faction was going to act against Emperor Xuanzong, planned to kill key members of her faction, but the news leaked.Emperor Ruizong exiled Liu and Zhang—in Liu's case, to Feng Prefecture (封州, roughly modern Zhaoqing, Guangdong). Princess Taiping's associate, the chancellor Cui Shi, subsequently gave instructions to Zhou Lizhen (周利貞) the commandant at Guang Prefecture (廣州, roughly modern Guangzhou, Guangdong), under whose area of responsibility Feng Prefecture was, to have Liu killed. <mask>, who was a friend of Liu's heard of this secret instruction, and therefore, when Liu went through Gui Prefecture, detained him and refused to let him go on to Feng Prefecture. Zhou submitted accusations that <mask> was disobeying an imperial edict, and Cui repeatedly tried to pressure <mask> to release Liu to Feng Prefecture. Liu himself pointed out to <mask> that he did not want to put <mask> in danger as well, but <mask> refused to let Liu go on, and Liu was spared from death. After Emperor Xuanzong suppressed Princess Taiping's faction in 713, he recalled Liu to again serve as chancellor. Soon thereafter, <mask> was recalled and made the deputy commander of the armies in the Shuofang region, in actual command.Sometime thereafter, he was made the deputy minister of husbandry (太僕少卿, Taipu Shaoqing), responsible for the herds of the

He put 700 of his soldiers in Tibetan uniform and made a surprise attack, causing much panic in the Tibetan army. Subsequently, when troops under the command of the general Xue Ne arrived, he counterattacked along with Xue, dealing Tibetan forces a serious defeat. <mask> was made the Baron of Qingyuan and given the honorific title Yinqing Guanglu Daifu (銀青光祿大夫). He was also made the commandant at Yuan Prefecture (原州, roughly modern Guyuan, Ningxia), and his son <mask>g (王珽) was given the honorific title of Chaosan Daifu.He was soon made the secretary general at Bing Prefecture (并州, roughly modern Taiyuan, Shanxi). In 716, Qapaghan Qaghan of the Göktürks was killed in battle, and in the confusion that ensued, a large group of Göktürks surrendered to Tang. Soon, however, his nephew Bilge Khagan settled down the situation. <mask>, believing that the Göktürks who surrendered would try to flee back to the Göktürk state, suggested that they be forcibly moved into the heart of the empire to prevent them from doing so. Before <mask>'s suggestion could be acted upon, however, there was an uprising by the Göktürks who surrendered, under the leadership of Xiedie Sitai (𨁂跌思泰) and Axilan (阿悉爛). Xue and <mask> tried to intercept them and dealt them defeats, but they were able to flee back to the Göktürk state anyway. In 720, <mask> believed that the Pugu (僕固) and Xiedie tribes of the region were planning to defect to Eastern Tujue and attack with Eastern Tujue troops.He thus held a feast and invited the

He then proposed a plan to attack Ashina Mojilian along with the Baximi, Xi, and Khitan. The plan was not approved, and when the Baximi launched the attack by itself, they were crushed by Eastern Tujue forces. In 721, the non-Han Chinese in the region rebelled under the leadership of Kang Daibin (康待賓) and attacked Xia Prefecture (夏州, roughly modern Yulin, Shaanxi). Emperor Xuanzong ordered <mask> and Guo Zhiyun (郭知運), the military governor (jiedushi) of Longyou Circuit to attack Kang. <mask> quickly defeated and captured Kang, who was sent to Chang'an and executed there.He accepted many tribes' surrender. He was created the Duke of Qingyuan. However, when Guo arrived, Guo attacked those tribes, which thus believed that <mask> was treacherous to them and rebelled again. Emperor Xuanzong blamed this on <mask> and demoted him to be the prefect of Zi Prefecture (梓州, roughly modern Mianyang, Sichuan). In 722, Emperor Xuanzong recalled <mask> to serve on as the head of the household for his crown prince Li Siqian, and created him the Duke of Zhongshan. Subsequently, when Emperor Xuanzong went on a tour of the northern regions, he made <mask> the mayor of Taiyuan Municipality (converted from Bing Prefecture). In summer 723, <mask> was made the minister of defense (兵部尚書, Bingbu Shangshu) and given the designation Tong Zhongshu Menxia Sanpin (同中書門下三品), making him a chancellor de facto.He was subsequently also made the military governor of Shuofang and took a tour of the northern regions.

Emperor Xuanzong initially approved of this and sent him a robe as an award. However, at that time, the servants of <mask> (王喬) the prefect of Xu Prefecture (許州, roughly modern Xuchang, Henan) accused <mask> and <mask> of plotting treason together. Emperor Xuanzong had <mask>'s fellow chancellors Yuan Qianyao and Zhang Shuo investigate, but found no evidence against <mask>. Still, <mask> was demoted to be the prefect of Qi Prefecture (蘄州, roughly modern Huanggang, Hubei) on the charge of disobeying the imperial edict.In 726, <mask> was again made the military governor of Shuofang. He died in 732 and was buried with honor. After his death, there was a campaign in which Emperor Xuanzong's second cousin Li Hui (李禕) the Prince of Xin'an defeated Xi forces, and purportedly, Li Hui's soldiers saw the spirits of <mask> and another general, Gao Zhao (高昭), attacking the Xi with them. The official Yang Bocheng (陽伯城) proposed that <mask> and Gao be posthumously honored and their tombs be enlarged. Emperor Xuanzong agreed, and further granted offices to <mask>'s sons.

<mask> (January 18, 1850 – September 17, 1916) was an American educator and political figure who served as the 23rd Mayor of Brooklyn, the president of Columbia University, a diplomatic representative of the United States, and the 92nd Mayor of New York City. He was a leading municipal reformer fighting for efficiency during the Progressive Era. Early life

<mask> was the son of <mask> and Ellen Almira Dow. <mask>'s father was a leading China trader, and his father's sister, <mask>, was one of the first young American women to live in China. The <mask> family was old Puritan New England stock, descended from <mask> of Essex County, Massachusetts. <mask> was named after his grandfather <mask> (1782–1853) who moved with his son Abiel to Brooklyn to start a prosperous importing company. When Brooklyn was incorporated as a city in 1834, <mask> the elder was one of the incorporators; he also served on the Board of Aldermen and was first President of the Board of Education.<mask> the elder was also involved with charity and support work for the poor; on his deathbed, he admonished his three-year-old grandson and namesake: "Be kind to the poor." <mask>'s father was a Unitarian, and his mother was an Episcopalian. For years, <mask> wavered between the two faiths. Finally, at age 22, <mask> decided he would henceforth be an Episcopalian. <mask> attended Poly Prep Country Day School in Brooklyn and Columbia College. After graduating from Columbia in 1870, <mask> made a short trip abroad, and then entered the tea and silk house of A. A.Low & Brothers, which had been founded by his father in New York. In 1875, he was admitted a member of the firm, from which, upon its liquidation in 1888, he withdrew with a large

 fortune. In the mid-1870s, <mask> began to lay the groundwork for his political career by supporting "welfare reform" and the elimination of food and coal disbursements for the poor which caused "starving people" to gather at "warehouses where food was stored" to beg for help. During this period, the reform movement, of which <mask> was a stalwart, denounced emergency assistance of potatoes and flour for the poor. The reduction in welfare assistance for the poor led many to seek shelter in "police station basements" and in city hospitals, and led many poor parents to bring "their children to asylums" and many men to beg on the streets for "charity or work." On December 9, 1880, he married Anne Wroe Scollay Curtis of Boston, daughter of Justice Benjamin R. Curtis of the United States Supreme Court. They had no biological children, but adopted two nieces and a nephew.Mayor of Brooklyn

First term
By 1881 Brooklyn had been governed for years by a corrupt Democratic political machine under Hugh McLaughlin. By this time, a wave of goo-goo (or "good government") sentiment had begun to gain favor, and public sentiment was starting to turn against the incumbent Democratic regime. Brooklyn Republicans sensed an opportunity, but they were split between the "stalwart" candidate Benjamin F. Tracy and reform candidate Ripley Ropes. <mask> had no particular ambition to become Mayor, but his name was brought forth as a compromise, because his wealth and old family name appealed to the "stalwarts" and his reformist views appealed to the reformers. <mask> accepted the nomination at the Republican city convention, making it clear that he would not be a partisan mayor. <mask> defeated the incumbent Democrat James Howell
