| 4 | at-one-ment, the conclusion We held the door open for a miracle, but none came. At least not in the hoped-for form. That?s the thing with miracles, they don?t necessarily obey orders. I meant to ask David if there was a significance to the director?s chair in the pathway to the front door. I don?t remember if it was there when I arrived in the afternoon yesterday. I do remember stepping around it on the way to my car at 11:30 last night. It seemed a little like the cup for Elijah. But who were we waiting for? Leila to come back and sit on it? I last saw her last week, on Thursday. The day the miracle workers came. The day of anointments. On Friday she was supposed to go home, to begin hospice. I got a message from someone that she would be staying in the hospital through Monday. That she wanted some time to absorb what had happened during the healings. Especially that last one with the monk, where he?d wrapped her in the mantle of a modern saint, crossed her forehead, eyes, cheeks, throat, and heart with sacred oils, prayed over her for 35 minutes in four languages. I heard she wanted things to be all set up and ready for her. That she needed to rest and didn?t want visitors. I called her home and left a message to let her know I was aware of the schedule and thinking of her. So I was surprised when the phone rang Saturday morning and it was her. I was almost out the door, with the grandparents, and Scott and Jonah, all of us bundled up and ready to head out to Tilden Park to ride the Steam Train. Leila was talking slowly, as she has done now for weeks, what with all the narcotics and the exhaustion of illness. She informed me she?d come home because the insurance wouldn?t cover her hospital stay anymore. They don?t have a line item for rest and contemplation. I told her I was glad she was home and that I had to go. That I would talk to her later. How many times I?ve said that in these last six weeks of rollercoastering in and out of hospitals, towards and away from the brink of death? Why did I need to be so many other places? There simply is never enough time, never enough ?laters.? Sunday morning I called and left another message. I wanted to get her blog passwords, so I could use a service that turns blogs into books, for the kids. A few minutes later, she called. But not necessarily because I had called. One of those crossed wires moments. She fumbled who she was calling at first. ?Johnny?? ? ?Julie,? I reminded her. The hospital bed wasn?t working right and they couldn?t get it fixed because they had to go off hospice in order for her to be able to get one more procedure. A catheter that would drain the fluid from her tumors, paracentesis. A procedure she?d been traveling to San Francisco to receive once a week, to relieve the pressure. She was angry, frustrated. She?d felt so sick in the night, she was shaking, she told me. Her husband wouldn?t let her call 911. ?I was ready to let go,? she said. Whatever I said back was clearly insufficient because next she shouted at me, ?THAT?S A REALLY BIG DEAL!? She and her husband were sleeping on the sofa bed in the meantime. The old sofa bed that she?d slipcovered, but they?d had to take the slipcover off to open it out. She wanted to know if I might help her get a new sofa bed. Would IKEA deliver? At this point David got on the phone and asked me to please not go buy them a sofa. He?s familiar by now with my tendency to take Leila?s requests and run with them. The toilet paper, the moisturizer, the pajama pants. But I assured him I wasn?t going to buy them a sofa. He explained that 911 wasn?t an option anymore. ?Unless she breaks a limb, I have all the medications she needs here.? I knew other friends were going to visit her that day, so off I went again into the swirl of grandparent and toddler time. On Monday when I called, she was too tired to talk. Or was that Tuesday? Yes. I?d waited till the grandparents left. A flurry of emails that day confirmed that Leila?s MFA professor and friend had offered to edit and publish her novel and Leila accepted. On Wednesday, I went over to the house. A woman with long red hair and hazel eyes answered the door, a friend of Leila?s from almost 30 years ago, college and her New York period. Eva had flown up from L.A. for the day. Leila was asleep. Eva wawas cleaning out the refrigerator. Together we made a big pot of spaghetti sauce for David while he napped (Leila keeps him up at night like a newborn.) We stood in the kitchen and looked out at Leila, her sleeping face framed in the pass-through window. Eva told me: When I first met Leila, I was so in love with her. She was just so beautiful, and so fabulous. I told her I thought we would be friends forever, that we would grow old together. She looked at me in that way, (Eva mimics, creating a distance with a wave of one hand, upper torso pulling backwards) ?Don?t be so presumptuous,? she told me. But now, it?s almost come true. When it was time for her to go back to the airport, Eva stood next to the hospital bed and talked to still-sleeping Leila, said goodbye, cried. I couldn?t hear her over the exhaust fan from the stove, but I could tell by the shape of her back what the conversation was. I could not, have not, did not talk to Leila while she seemed out of it. I watched others do it. But I just couldn?t. For the most part. That afternoon, I held her hand. Her skin was so dry, so I put lotion on. Each time the cold dab from the bottle touched her skin, she startled, eyes wide. I reassured her. Telling her exactly what I was doing, the same way I used to narrate diaper changes and such to Jonah when he was a newborn. She never actually acknowledged me that day. I?m not sure she recognized me. I could tell she knew who David was, and when her mother came, I heard her say, Mom. Several times she tried to get out of bed and I tried to explain to her that she couldn?t. But it seemed impossible to explain. Her mind didn?t know the limitations of her body anymore. Eventually she?d give in and lie back down. I talked a lot to David that day. True things we?ve been thinking and feeling. (Later, when others, Joni, one of the nurses, claimed that she could hear everything, even when we thought she wasn?t with us, wasn?t comprehending, I was grateful for the conversations I?d had with others in her presence, because we?d said things to each other I?d never gotten a chance to say to her.) The next day, yesterday, her condition had declined even more. I got the news in an email that afternoon, that she was more out of it, that her lungs were full of fluid. I?d just been in the process of trying to organize a sign-up sheet, for those of us who wanted to visit, to keep David company with Leila. I said I?d come at 5:30. I looked around the room, trying to figure out what to do next, what to do until 5:30. I ended up grabbing some food from the fridge, to cook dinner for David and I, and walking out the door right then. I called the nanny. ?Please prepare Jonah, let him know I won?t be here when he gets home.? I was unprepared for the sound of someone breathing through fluid. Rough, jagged, bubbling breaths. Her head would move, her mouth open wide, gulping at the air. Her eyes were slightly open, unfocused. Is she awake or asleep? I asked. I sat down on the couch, and for the first time in her and David?s presence, I cried. The plan for the evening was this: Joni, who?d been there all afternoon, would go home and feed her dog. David was going to go pick up the kids and take them out to dinner as soon as the nurse arrived at 5:30. The meal I?d brought to cook for David would now be for Joni. Joni would come back around 6:30, and Meg would be on her way over at 7. These events occur: I put ointment on Leila?s hands. A special salve made from shea butter and tea tree oil, prepared by a neighbor. Joni leaves. I sit down next to Leila and meditate. We used to meditate together. Etie arrives right on schedule, David leaves. Etie administers Leila?s medications over the next hour, by droppers: morphine, haldol, something to ease the rasping in her throat. I ask her if she thinks Leila is still with us. She says no. The body has shut down. Her eyes aren?t focusing. The only organ working now is her heart. I tell Leila, ?Honey, I?m going to make pork chops for Joni and I in your kitchen. I hope that?s okay.? Etie sits with me in the kitchen while I cut up apples for applesauce. Four apples from my garden. I slice each one into small pieces, making a pile of cores and peel. Etie asks me questions about Leila while I chop. I realize I am cutting very slowly. ?I think this is therapeutic,? I say. ?Leila was a really great cook,? I inform her, experimenting with the past tense while rooting through the spice cabinet, looking for cardamom, ginger. ?This meal is an homage.? Etie asks if Leila has kids, if I have kids, tells me she has six, all grown, still back in New Zealand. ?I got divorced and I needed to live in a different country from my husband,? she says in a thick accent. She asks where Leila?s kids are. I tell her. ?In my culture,? she says, ?the kids would be with her. Everyone would be gathered around her.? Etie goes out to the living room and sits with Leila while I eat my meal. Blackened pork chops with applesauce, fried potatoes, and salad dressed in lemon juice and cumin. Etie studies the posterboards of family photos we?d displayed at the Healing Circle event, less than two weeks ago, now placed against the wall at the head of the hospital bed. ?She was very beautiful,? she says, ?and so young.? Joni arrives and joins me at the kitchen table. She says Leila?s breath sounds different. Worse. I can?t hear it exactly. As much as possible I?ve tuned it out, mentally turned it into the sound of a machine, rhythmic. We talk about whether or not Meg is going to come over. It?s just 7. Did she get Joni?s email? Did she know David wasn?t going to be here but we were? Meg arrives. She immediately starts crying, assuming that my presence in the house means Leila is already gone. She comes in and we all hug, and then we start to putter. Do you think we should open these cards, put them out around the room? Perhaps not. The kids may come after she passes, maybe they wouldn?t want to see all the cards around. Meg, the organizer, goes through the mail, sorting out bills from the rest of the pile. Joni and I explain to Meg that David is out with the kids. We hear a noise. What was that noise? Again. Leila, vocalizing. A sound. A long moaning sound. Is she in pain? No, she?d just had morphine a little bit ago. The three of us gather near her head, Etie stands near Leila?s feet, but at a distance. This is it, she tells us. Leila?s eyes focus, staring into Joni?s. I place my hands gently on Leila?s head, as I have done so many times in the last few weeks, and the last two days. I lean close to her. Meg is standing behind Joni. The bubbling in Leila?s breathing is gone. Her breaths are slower, farther apart. The three of us are all talking, crying, praying. Leila, you are so beautiful. We love you. Everything is going to be okay. Everything is okay. You did good. You did so many good things in this world. We love you. It?s okay. ?She?s gone,? says Etie. I try closing her eyes, like they do in the movies, but the lids pop right back up. Etie explains that it takes a while. We position her head and I hold her jaw and eyelids closed while Joni and Meg start cleaning up. Joni calls David. Meg gathers all the medical gear and supplies and moves them into the garage, to make the room more hospitable, if the kids decide they want to see her. Etie leaves. ?Tell David, he doesn?t have to pay me for tonight,? she says. After a while, I trade places with Joni, finishing up the dishes while she holds Leila?s face. I clean out the freezer. Meals will be arriving soon. I put out dried apricots, pretzels, pine nuts, remembering that my grandmother, right before her death, had made a list of items that she?d wanted for her funeral, such as white roses and sand from Israel to be placed on the casket, and no one could figure out why she?d written ?pistachios? until finally we realized she?d meant, for the guests. Arrivals: Her mother, David, the kids. I call a few people to give them the news. My friend tells me of washing her father?s body after he had passed. A Jewish ritual. The hospice nurse arrives. She says, ?In this situation, I usually offer to wash and dress the body, if you would like me to do that.? Yes! I choose a long turquoise middle eastern caftan with gold embroidery, the one I think she may have worn to the Healing Circle, though none of us can recall for certain. I show it to David and his eyes light up. Yes. Joni, the nurse ? whose physical beauty, like the startling handsomeness of every doctor and nurse at the hospital, Leila would definitely have remarked upon and appreciated ? and I respectfully wash and dress Leila, put a necklace on her, cross her hands and rest them on her belly, lay a blue and white flowered coverlet over her feet. It?s such a simple thing, and why bother, except that is possibly the one thing I am the most grateful for. That we gave Leila?s body this small dignity. Her face, the struggle removed, looked so peaceful and young. She was almost smiling. by Julie Feinstein Adams | Abu-Saba, Leila Elias (I5702)

| 9 | ?We build things,? Barton Cregger once said enthusiastically, speaking of engineers and VCU?s School of Engineering .As a faculty member and associate dean, he helped build the school and hundreds of young people and their careers as well. Cregger died March 27 after a massive stroke. He was 49. Cregger came to VCU in 1998 as an assistant professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering. He helped shape the curriculum and even the open physical layout of the new school, which incorporates areas for study and discussion in small groups?encouraging that cross-fertilization of ideas so necessary to solving problems and generating new solutions. Cregger?s experience at Medeco Security Locks in Salem , Virginia and at Texas Instruments in Dallas meant he could help students see how to translate engineering concepts into viable business production. Hands-on practice on real projects has always driven professional training at VCU, and it?s such a major theme for the School of Engineering that the school?s newest building now under construction will be joined to a new building for VCU?s School of Business. As associate dean, Cregger aggressively recruited a diverse student body, taking opportunity to some potential engineers who didn?t know those possibilities existed. Special open house demonstrations brought disadvantaged students to the VCU campus to taste the excitement of engineering and to awaken a hunger in them for a college education. He was the prime engine in the engineering school's FIRST Robotics competition that brings middle and high school students to campus each year. Cregger didn?t forget them once they were here, and he followed their careers after graduation. "Engineering students have a very difficult time. It's not unusual for students to get discouraged and want to give up,? said VCU?s dean of engineering, Dr. Russell Jamison, in the Richmond Times-Dispatch. ?Bart was the guy who helped them get through the day, who taught them to take failure and setbacks and who got them going again." As an alumni recruiter for the school, Brad Crosby ?01BS/En says, ?We tell prospective students and families, ?You won?t be just a number at VCU,? and no one lived that more than Bart.? Students wanted to do well; they didn?t like to disappoint Bart. Crosby remembers a student intern at his firm, Qimonda, who didn?t seem to quite fit. ?Instead of just saying 'you win some and you loose some,'? Crosby says, ?Bart was committed to teaching. He asked why it wasn't working. Set up coaching sessions. He met regularly with the student?s mentor, and went much further than I ever expected anyone would. In his mind's eye there never seemed to be a lost cause?just an opportunity to teach.? Mary Perkinson ?91BFA?03BS/En comments, ?Bart Cregger touched the lives of everyone around him in a positive way. He was always ready to give encouragement and a helping hand to every student that crossed his path. He has left a void that will be impossible to fill at Virginia Commonwealth University School of Engineering.? Chris Wash ?04BS/En adds, ?It was Bart?s simple, genuine, and highly contagious philosophy that made the school what it is today?that no matter who you are, where you come from, or where you are going, you're always a part of the School of Engineering family. I think that's the reason most students would say Dean Cregger had a fatherly aura about him as he walked the halls and classrooms of the school, and it's also why he will be missed so dearly.? "Bart's loss to us is immeasurable," Jamison says. "Bart's legacy of influencing young lives is one that any of us would envy." Memorial contributions may be sent to The Barton B. Cregger Scholarship Fund at VCU School of Engineering Foundation; P.O. Box 843068; Richmond, VA 23284. | Cregger, Barton Bentley (I5708)

| 12 | Age 45, died Saturday in NJ; born in Hell's Kitchen, NY; dropped out of school in ninth grade; served briefly in the USN; married and divorced twice (Dianne and Lynn); self-employed as a house painter (Pearsall Painting and Decorating) in NY, NJ, and FL; fathered 2 sons (Erik and Kevin) in his second marriage; married a third time (1991), and died within 15 years of contracting HIV. Bobby was an amazing man - in that he relished the "good" things in life; aspired to experience and enjoy all that money could buy! His association with a woman (Chris Evans) between his second and third marriages, afforded him with opportunities to pursue the world of drugs - which included heroine - to which he became addicted, later going thru rehab with methadone, relapsing to that one final injection from which he contracted HIV. He predeceased his parents, Andrew and Dorothy Pearsall, of Hasbrouck Heights, N.J. He shares the same grave with his sister Joan, with whom he admittedly fought over, but shared drugs with, and who died from a drug overdose in 1979. | Pearsall, Robert Andrew (I304686)

| 13 | Age 65, of Hot Springs AR, formerly of El Dorado AR, was mercifully pronounced dead (rather than put on life support) at 4:18pm Wednesday, as a result of injuries sustained as a driver in an auto accident (with his wife, and beloved canine Rufus, as passengers) at 3:35pm that day, in Hot Springs; born and raised in El Dorado AR, to Lloyd Chesney and Billie Jean Baston; graduated Louisiana Tech University with Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering Degree, minor in math; was a process engineer for Union Carbide, Atlantic Richfield, Crown Central Petroleum, Houston Lighting and Power Company, and Baston Oil Company of El Dorado AR; private computer consultant; licensed small aircraft pilot; FCC licensed radio operator; adjunct professor in Union, Ouachita, and Columbia Counties. With retirement time available to him, Ben volunteered his energies and abilities to the Find A Grave website project; working carefully and diligently, to clean cemetery markers (with natural bristle brushes), and digging out those 'buried' ovever time, to enable him to photograph and enter those folks' names and dates at this website. He was a stickler for accuracy, and invested countless hours in pursuit of that goal. Ben's memorial page was created (pre-need) once the marker was set and photographed, three years before his demise. Ben was predeceased by his father Lloyd C Baston and his oldest son Daniel R Baston. Survivors include wife of six years, Lynn Cricket McClure, mother, two daughters, a son, a brother and sister, a grand daughter and another on the way, a niece, three nephews, and two previous wives, the mothers of his four children. No funeral services were scheduled, as per Ben's wishes. Cremation was handled by Caruth-Hale Funeral Home. Burial of cremains was Monday, April 4, 2011, at noon. | Baston, Bennie Pat (I304689)

| 15 | Aidon mac Gabhran is considered the dynastic founder of the kingdom of Dalraida. He was an aggressive, plundering, warrior king who led his hungry aristocracy in warfare wth the Picts, and British, but also allied himself with the British against the Picts. He was defeated at the Battle of Degsastan in Northumbria in 03 and retired in 608. | Aidan mac Gabhran (I0184)

| 16 | Alexander Bane, the 2nd Bane Laird of Tulloch, married twice - in 1558 and 1562. His first marriage seems to have been to Janet Dingwall, of the Dingwalls of Kildun and Ussie, by whom he had a son and heir, Duncan; and his second wife was Agnes, dau. James Fraser and niece of Hugh, 5th Lord Lovat, by whom he had eight more children. In 1562, he exchanged certain lands in Sutherland (probably part of the lands which his father had obtained from James V in 1542) with Robert Munro of Fowlis, for lands in Ross, and "for infefting him in Fowlis's arable lands in the Burgh of Dingwall." He died ca. 1599, having had issue: by his first marriage, Duncan, his successor; by his 2nd marriage: Alexander, progenitor of the Bains of Wester Logie; Ronald, Janet, Giles, John, Hugh, or Ewen, Marjory, Catherine. He had lived in a period of stirring feuds or episodes, some of which affected the family, including: 1. The Reformation and the teaching of John Knox were beginning to have an effect on the religious thinking of the people. In 1560, the Scottish Parliament abolished the papal jurisdiction in Scotland. This was a significant step in the progresss of the Reformation; but it seemed to increase the ambitions of powerful people who were waiting for chances to increase their properties; also, it resulted in great unsettlement due to the intrigues of the Royal Family in their efforts, first, to maintain the Roman system, and, later, to influence the episcopal system. 2. The Privy Council records dated Dec. 25, 1595, refer to the complaint of Alexander Bane of Tulloch and Alexander Bane, Fiar of Logie, against John Mackenzie, Minister of Urray, to the effect that the latter was accused "first, of harbouring J John Macgillicum Rasa, a common thief and lummair and denounced rebel there," for the purpose of murdering the two sons of the said Alexander Bane of Logie, and, secondly, of coming to the complainant's lands of Urray and cutting "his plewis and rigwiddies," and thereby and by "utheris and like oppin and manifest oppression," laying the said lands waste. Bane of Logie appeared for himself at the appointed time, but Mackenzie failed to appear, was denounced rebel and put to the horn. 3. Alexander, a son of Alexander by his second marriage, was known as "The Younger of Tulloch" since his father also was Alexander; and was famous as "Alastair Mor Ban" because of his strength, fierceness and his savage acts, which caused his father much concern. For instance, he came to hate the Mackenzies for their acquisitive activities; and, when one of them claimed the Bane lands in Torridan, he led a band of kinsfolk to the public fair at Logie, where the whole county would gatheher, attacked his enemy and killed him on the spot. Another Mackenzie, who demanded satisfaction, was also struck down. These two Mackenzies were amongst the finest swordsmen of the day, so their clansmen fell upon the Banes and their friends the Munros before they could get together. Many of the Banes and thirteen of the Munros are said to have been slain, and some Mackenzies. Alastair Mor escaped and made his way to his uncle, Lord Lovat, at Beauly. Lovat seems to have sent a messengnger to the King at Falkland Palace to present the Bane version of the affair; but the Mackenzies got there first, and they also burnt the Bane barns and stackyards at Lemlair, three miles east of Dingwall. The Council at Falkland gave orders for the Banes of Tulloch and the Mackenzies of Kintail to bind themselves to keep the peace. 4. In 1596, the Second Laird, claiming to be "a decrepid aged man past eighty years of age and blind," complained to the King against Kenneth Mackenzie of Kintail on another matter; and the King remitted the complaint to be decided by ordinary judges. In September, 1599, Kintail entered into a bond for a thousand merks that John Dunbar, fiar of Avoch, and others, in five hundred merks each, "will not harm Roderick Dingwall of Tulloch, Duncan Bane, heir-apparent of Tulloch, Alexander Bane of Logie," and other sons and grandsons of Bane of Tulloch.

| 17 | April 27, 2011 Aunt Bib, you were always so kind to your niece and all your nephews. We're so sad to see you leave us -- but you're now in heaven with your brothers and sisters. Thanks for being a wonderful and gracious aunt! ~? Michael, Brenda and Marinda Martin, Bonaire, Georgia April 27, 2011 We had the pleasure of knowing Bib through her special friendship with Winnie, my sister. She was indeed special, talented and loved by many. She will be missed here but we pray that Winnie, Bib's family and host of friends find peace in knowing she is now rejoicing in the arms of Jesus. ~? Joe and Katha Twiner, Valdosta, Georgia April 27, 2011 I know that Bib will be missed by many. She was such a speical friend to my sister, Winnie. They loved each other very much. I had the pleasure of meeting her once and she was such a lovely lady. I know she will be missed by all that knew her. My prayers go out to her family and to Winnie. ~? Wanda Twiner, Gulfport, Mississippi April 27, 2011 It was always a pleasure knowing Bibb. We first met in 2000, in our unusual art class held every Tuesday in Old Homosassa. She had been with our teacher, artist professional Bea Davis for many years before we met. Always friendly and very insdusstrious as a painter. She had the intelligence and abilities equal to others in the class. She'll be missed by all those in her art class. She'll be missed! Hopefully Betty Sites who supplied Bibb's transportation to and from class for some time, will visit us frequently. ~? George Harbin, Homosassa, Florida April 27, 2011 I knew Bib through visiting my sister, Winnie, over the years. We would usually have lunch together when I was there visiting. She was a wonderful lady and great friend to my sister. I know she will be missed by her family and friends. I know I will also miss her when I visit Winnie in Florida. ~? Nancy Hatcher, Port Gibson, Mississippi April 28, 2011 I loved Bib with all my heart. I smile every time I think of her. She had such a quick wit and always kept me laughing. We spent many wonderful hours together. I will always keep her in my heart, where she has been from the moment I met her. She was such a "Southern Belle" and a fine example of how a person should behave. I will never forget one of the first times we went to lunch and she was taking some home with her. She was putting the food one spoonful at a time in the takeout container. I said, "Just dump it, Bib." She said, "That wouldn't be genteel." Oh, how I will miss her. I wake up every morning thinking of her, and go to sleep every night thinking of her. What a fine example of a lady she was. ~?

He had an avid interest in boating (predominately sail boats and houseboats). This probably stemmed from his youth when he lived on a houseboat in Miami and he helped his grandfather deliver the U.S. Mail by boat in South Florida from West Palm Beach to Lake Okeechobee. | Martin, Arthur (Leapard) Stephen (I3334)

Caraker commanded his men when Lee began his offensive; the captain's first fight was on June 25, 1862, at King's School House.

| 43 | Cin?ed mac Ailp?n (after 800 ? 13 February 858) (Anglicised Kenneth MacAlpin) was king of the Picts and, according to national myth, first king of Scots. Cin?ed's undisputed legacy was to produce a dynasty of rulers who claimed descent from him. Even though he cannot be regarded as the father of Scotland, he was the founder of the dynasty which ruled that country for much of the medieval period. King of Scots? The Cin?ed of myth, conqueror of the Picts and founder of the kingdom of Alba, was born in the centuries after the real Cin?ed died. In the reign of Cin?ed mac M?il Coluim, when the Chronicle of the Kings of Alba was compiled, the annalist wrote: ? So Kinadius son of Alpinus, first of the Scots, ruled this Pictland prosperously for 16 years. Pictland was named after the Picts, whom, as we have said, Kinadius destroyed. ... Two years before he came to Pictland, he had received the kingdom of D?l Riata. ? In the 15th century Andrew of Wyntoun's Orygynale Cronykil of Scotland, a history in verse, added little to the account in the Chronicle: ? Quhen Alpyne this kyng was dede, He left a sowne wes cal'd Kyned, Dowchty man he wes and stout, All the Peychtis he put out. Gret bataylis than dyd he, To pwt in freedom his cuntre! ? When humanist scholar George Buchanan wrote his history Rerum Scoticarum Historia in the 1570s, a great deal of lurid detail had been added to the story. Buchanan included an account of how Cin?ed's father had been murdered by the Picts, and a detailed, and entirely unsupported, account of how Cin?ed avenged him and conquered the Picts. Buchanan was not as credulous as many, and he did not include the tale of MacAlpin's Treason, a story from Giraldus Cambrensis, who reused a tale of Saxon treachery at a feast in Geoffrey of Monmouth's inventive Historia Regum Britanniae. Later 19th century historians such as William Forbes Skene brought new standards of accuracy to early Scottish history, while Celticists such as Whitley Stokes and Kuno Meyer cast a critical eye over Welsh and Irish sources. As a result, much of the misleading and vivid detail was removed from the scholarly series of events, even if it remained in the popular accounts. Rather than a conquest of the Picts, instead the idea of Pictish matrilineal succession, mentioned by Bede and apparently the only way to make sense of the list of Kings of the Picts found in the Pictish Chronicle, advanced the idea that Cin?ed was a Gael, and a king of D?l Riata, who had inherited the throne of Pictland through a Pictish mother. Other Gaels, such as Caustant?n and ?engus, the sons of Fergus, were identified among the Pictish king lists, as were Angles such as Talorcen son of Eanfrith, and Britons such as Bridei son of Beli. Modern historians would reject parts of the Cin?ed produced by Skene and subsequent historians, while accepting others. Medievalist Alex Woolf, interviewed by The Scotsman in 2004, is quoted as saying: ? The myth of Kenneth conquering the Picts - it?s about 1210, 1220 that that?s first talked about. There?s actually no hint at all that he was a Scot. ... If you look at contemporary sources there are four other Pictish kings after him. So he?s the fifth last of the Pictish kings rather than the first Scottish king." ? Many other historians could be quoted in terms similar to Woolf. Background Cin?ed's origins are uncertain, as are his ties, if any, to previous kings of the Picts or D?l Riata. Among the genealogies contained in the Middle Irish Rawlinson B.502 manuscript, dating from around 1130, is the supposed descent of M?el Coluim mac Cin?eda. Medieval genealogies are unreliable sources, but some historians accept Cin?ed's descent from the Cen?l nGabrain of D?l Riata. The manuscript provides the following ancestry for Cin?ed: ... Cin?ed mac Ailp?n son of Eochaid son of ?ed Find son of Domangart son of Domnall Brecc son of Eochaid Buide son of ?ed?n son of Gabr?n son of Domangart son of Fergus M?r ...[4] Leaving aside the shadowy kings before ?ed?n son of Gabr?n, the genealogy is certainly flawed insofar as ?ed Find, who died c. 778, could not reasonably be the son of Domangart, who was killed c. 673. The conventional account would insert two generations between ?ed Find and Domangart: Eochaid mac Echdach, father of ?ed Find, who died c. 733, and his father Eochaid. Although later traditions provided details of his reign and death, Cin?ed's father Alp?n is not listed as among the kings in the Duan Albanach, which provides the following sequence of kings leading up to Cin?ed: Naoi m-bliadhna Cusaintin chain, The nine years of Causant?n the fair;, a naoi Aongusa ar Albain, The nine of Aongus over Alba; cethre bliadhna Aodha ?in, The four years of Aodh the noble; is a tri d?ug Eoghan?in. And the thirteen of Eoghan?n. Tr?ocha bliadhain Cionaoith chruaidh, The thirty years of Cionaoth the hardy, It is supposed that these kings are the Caustant?n son of Fergus and his brother ?engus, who have already been mentioned, ?engus's son E?gan?n, as well as the obscure ?ed mac Boanta, but this sequence is considered doubtful if the list is intended to represent kings of D?l Riata, as it should if Cin?ed were king there. The idea that Cin?ed was a Gael is not entirely rejected, but modern historiography distinguishes between Cin?ed as a Gael by culture, and perhaps in ancestry, and Cin?ed as a king of Gaelic D?l Riata. Cin?ed could well have been the first sort of Gael. Kings of the Picts before him, from Bridei son of Der-Ilei, his brother Nechtan as well as ?engus son of Fergus and his presumed descendants were all at least partly Gaelicised. The idea that the Gaelic names of Pictish kings in Irish annals represented translations of Pictish ones was challenged by the discovery of the inscription Custantin filius Fircus(sa), the latinised name of the Pictish king Caustant?n son of Fergus, on the Dupplin Cross. Other evidence, such as that furnished by place-names, suggests the spread of Gaelic culture through Pictland in the centuries before Cin?ed. For example, Atholl, a name used in the Annals of Ulster for the year 739, has been thought to be "New Ireland". Reign Compared with the many questions on his origins, Cin?ed's ascent to power and subsequent reign can be dealt with simply. Cin?ed's rise can be placed in the context of the recent end of the previous dynasty, which had dominated Fortriu for two or four generations. This followed the death of king E?gan son of ?engus of Fortriu, his brother Bran, ?ed mac Boanta "and others almost innumerable" in battle against the Vikings in 839. The resulting succession crisis seems, if the Pictish Chronicle king-lists have any validity, to have resulted in at least four would-be kings warring for supreme power. Cin?ed's reign is dated from 843, it was probably not until 848 that he defeated the last of his rivals for power. The Pictish Chronicle claims that he was king in D?l Riata for two years before becoming Pictish king in 843, but this is not generally accepted. In 849, Cin?ed had relics of Columba, which may have included the Monymusk Reliquary, transferred from Iona to Dunkeld. Other that these bare facts, the Chronicle of the Kings of Alba reports that he invaded Saxonia six times, captured Melrose and burnt Dunbar, and also that Vikings laid waste to Pictland, reaching far into the interior. The Annals of the Four Masters, not generally a good source on Scottish matters, do make mention of Cin?ed, although what should be made of the report is unclear: Gofraid mac Fergusa, chief of Airg?alla, went to Alba, to strengthen the Dal Riata, at the request of Cin?ed mac Ailp?n. Cin?ed died from a tumour on 13 February, 858 at the palace of Cinnbelachoir, perhaps near Scone. The annals report the death as that of the "king of the Picts", not the "king of Alba". The title "king of Alba" is not used until the time of Cin?ed's grandsons, Domnall and Causant?n. The Fragmentary Annals of Ireland quote a verse lamenting Cin?ed's death: Because Cin?ed with many troops lives no longer there is weeping in every house; there is no king of his worth under heaven as far as the borders of Rome. Cin?ed left at least two sons, Causant?n and ?ed, who were later kings, and and at least two daughters. One daughter married Run, king of Strathclyde, Eochaid being the result of this marriage. Cin?ed's daughter M?el Muire married two important Irish kings of the U? N?ill. Her first husband was ?ed Finnliath of the Cen?l nE?gain. Niall Gl?ndub, ancestor of the O'Neill, was the son of this marriage. Her second husband was Flann Sinna of Clann Cholm?in. As the wife and mother of kings, when M?el Muire died in 913, her death was reported by the Annals of Ulster, an unusual thing for the misogynistic chronicles of the age. | MacAlpin, Kenneth I (I0174)

| 47 | David Poythress didn't fit the political mold. He would read scholarly articles and listen to classical music as he crisscrossed Georgia running for statewide office, said George Langford, a former employee and friend of more than 30 years. "And nobody has a resume like him in state government," Langford said. David Bryan Poythress - attorney, a two-time candidate for governor and commander of the Georgia Army and Air National Guard during the Iraq, Afghanistan and Bosnian wars - died Jan. 15, while seeking medical treatment for a longtime lung illness. He was 73. Although he never reached his goal of governor, Poythress parlayed smarts and ambition into several high-level state jobs: deputy revenue commissioner; assistant attorney general; state labor commissioner; secretary of state, and the first commissioner of the state Department of Medical Assistance. DuBose Porter, a former legislator and Georgia Democratic Party chairman, said few can compare with Poythress. "When his nation or community called, he always answered," Porter said. "He was an accomplished, noble patriot driven by the credo of 'do the most good.' " Poythress was born in Bibb County on Oct. 24, 1943 to John Maynor Poythress, head of Macon's water department, and Dorothy Bayne Poythress, a school teacher and the founder of the state's special education program. He received his political science degree, law degree and commission as a U.S. Air Force officer at Emory University in the 1960s. Poythress entered active duty as an assistant staff judge advocate at Bergstrom Air Force Base in Texas in 1967. He served four years on active duty, volunteering for service in Vietnam and spending a year as defense counsel and chief of military justice at Da Nang Air Base. After active duty, he continued in the Air Force Reserve, retiring in 1998 with the rank of brigadier general. Before seeking elected office, Poythress was an assistant attorney general, deputy state revenue commissioner and chairman of a study committee Gov.George Busbee appointed to tackle the thorny issue of nursing home reimbursements from Medicaid. This and his subsequent work on Medicaid led to him being nicknamed the "Mr. Fix It" of state government. In 1979, Busbee appointed Poythress secretary of state after the death of the legendary incumbent, Ben Forston. Poythress ran for a full term as secretary of state in 1982 but was defeated in the Democratic primary by Max Cleland, a popular, decorated and disabled Vietnam veteran who would go on to run the Veterans Admistration and serve in the U.S. Senate. Poythress took a 10-year break from politics and practiced tax law in Atlanta. He jumped back into politics in 1992 and won a special statewide election for labor commissioner against Democratic incumbent Al Scott of Savannah. In 1994, he was elected to a full four-year term as labor commissioner. In 1999, Gov. Roy Barnes appointed Poythress to lead the Georgia Army and Air National Guard. Gov. Sonny Perdue reappointed him in 2002, promoting him to lieutenant general and making him the state's first three-star adjutant general. Langford said Poythress "wasn't fluff and bluster. He was straight ahead and get the job done." He said Poythress' interest in politics grew out of "his love of government and his country. He believed in institutions - the military, state government, federal government, the Democratic Party and organized labor." "He had a work ethic that never stopped, which he also expected from everybody that was close to him," Langford said. Scott Holcomb, an attorney and Democratic state representative from Atlanta, said Poythress "had a heart for service, and he led by example. He cared deeply about our service members and worked hard to promote our nation's democratic ideals." Poythress' wife, Elizabeth, said her husband strived to make things better for the agencies and employees he oversaw. "Integrity, honesty and duty before self were his guiding principles," she said. "He was a great father, incredible grandfather, devoted husband and friend and unwavering patriot." Poythress was on several boards and was vice chairman of the Board of the National Guard Association of the United States and a two-term chairman of the Board of the State YMCA of Georgia. He recently worked as a consultant and adviser to international companies in the defense industry. His survivors include his wife Elizabeth, sister Eva Higgins, son Cullen Gray Poythress, stepdaughters Candace Pinnisi and Kristin Placito, eight grandchildren and one great-grandchild.
