  • William (marcha orientalis)

    William (II) was the margrave (comes terminalis, "frontier count") of the March of Pannonia in the mid ninth century until his death on campaign against the Moravians in 871. In his day, the march orientalis corresponded to a front along the Danube from the Traungau to Szombathely and the Rába river and including the Vienna basin. It was a military frontier zone against Avaria.

    William co-ruled the march with his brother Engelschalk I and both died on the same campaign. They were replaced by Aribo, but Engelschalk's son Engelschalk II led their heirs in rebellion against Aribo in what became known as the Wilhelminer War from 882 to 884. The "Wilhelminers" were descendants of William's father, William I.

  • William (archbishop of Mainz)

    William (929 – 2 March 968) was Archbishop of Mainz from 17 December 954 until his death. He was the son of the Emperor Otto I the Great and a Slav mother.

    On 17 December 954, he was appointed to the archbishopric of Mainz following the death of the rebellious former archbishop Frederick. William received confirmation from Pope Agapetus II and also the title of Apostolic Vicar of Germany, a title which made the archbishops of Mainz the pope's deputies in Germany and granted the archdiocese of Mainz the title of Holy See. From his father William also received the title of "Arch-Chaplain of the Empire."

    William died at Rottleberode in 968 and was buried in St. Alban's Abbey, Mainz.

    Death of Janice Marie Young

    Janice Marie Young (born Janice Marie Brock and known primarily by her middle name) was a formerly unidentified American girl who was pushed into the path of a moving vehicle on June 9, 1973.

    A man was arrested for her murder, but the charge against him was eventually dropped, as the suspect's "intent could not be proven."

    The victim was identified on May 20, 2015, nearly 42 years after her death, after her brother noticed similarities between the unidentified victim and the circumstances surrounding his runaway sister's.

    Physical description and circumstances

    In the early hours of June 9, 1973, a teenage girl was seen arguing with a man at the intersection of 11th Avenue South and 8th Street South in St. Petersburg, Florida. The man was also seen shoving her into the path of a moving vehicle. She died at the scene.

    The victim appeared to be between 14 and 16 years old, but may have been as young as 11 or as old as 20. Her wavy hair was auburn and shoulder-length. Her eyes were noted as a unique shade of blue. She had noticeably short fingernails, which is consistent with nail biting. Other distinctive features were three birthmarks on her back, a chipped tooth, no visible dental work, and freckles on her shoulders. It is possible that her tooth was chipped when she was struck by the vehicle.

    Marie (novel)

    Marie is a 1912 novel by H. Rider Haggard featuring Allan Quatermain. The plot concerns Quatermain as a young man and involves his first marriage, to the Boer farm girl, Marie Marais. Their romance is opposed by Marie's anti-English father, and the villainous Pereira, who desires Marie. They are Voortrekkers who take part in the Great Trek whom Quatermain has to rescue.

    The novel describes Quatermain's involvement in the Sixth Xhosa War of 1835 and Weenen massacre. Real life people such as Piet Retief, Thomas Halstead, and the Zulu chief Dingane appear as characters. Events in Nada the Lily are frequently referred to.

    William Moore

    by: Phil Ochs

    Walkin' down an Alabama road
    Rememberin' what the Bible told
    Walkin' with a letter in his hand
    Dreaming of another southern land
    Walkin' down an Alabama road
    And he went by the name of William Moore
    Now what are you doing William Moore
    Why the letter in your hand?
    There's only one southern land
    And he went by the name of William Moore
    What price the glory of one man?
    What price the glory of one man?
    What price the hopes?
    What price the dreams?
    And what price the glory of one man?
    Remembering what his grandfather done
    Fought for the south in '61
    A hundred years have passed by since then
    Now Moore is fighting for the south again
    Remembering what his grandfather done
    Remembering the time in World War II
    And the South Pacific Island that he knew
    Remembering the young men that he killed
    And the praying that the guns of hate be stilled
    Remembering the time in World War Two
    What price the glory of one man?
    What price the glory of one man?
    What price the hopes?
    What price the dreams?
    And what price the glory of one man?
    And they shot him on the Alabama road
    Forgot about what the Bible told
    They shot him with that letter in his hand
    As though he were a dog and not a man
    And they shot him on the Alabama road
    Did you say it was a shame when he died?
    Did you say he was fool because he tried?
    Did you wonder who had fired the gun?
    Did you know that it was you who fired the gun?
    Did you say, it was a shame when he died?
    What price the glory of one man?
    What price the glory of one man?
    What price the hopes?
    What price the dreams?
    And what price the glory of one man?
