Excerpt from book: CHAPTER II VAULET OF THE ST. CROIX THE St. Croix river ? the natural valley of which Mr. Boardman did so much to develop, in which his great business abilities were so long employed for its advantage and the fauna of which he made so well known to the scientific world ? forms the boundary between the province of New Brunswick, Dominion of Canada and the United States, from a point just south of latitude 46 degrees north to the bay of Fundy into which its waters discharge. At Quoddy Head the United States reaches its farthest eastern limit and the St. Croix system is the most southeastern river system in the State of Maine. The area drained by the river St. Croix and its affluent lake systems is 70 miles long by 50 miles broad, having a total surface of 1175 square miles, 800 of which are in the State of Maine and 375 are in the province of New Brunswick. The St. Croix is formed by two branches, the lower of which receives the waters of the Grand lakes and the upper of which receives those of the Schoodic lakes ? the connecting rivers being wide and voluminous. In the St. Croix system are 183 streams and 61 lakes represented uponthe state map ? eleven of the lakes and ponds being located in New Brunswick. The Indian name Schoodic, which denotes in the native tongue low, swampy ground is applied to the St. Croix in general, including its chains of lakes and streams. The entire system of rivers, streams and lakes forming the St. Croix is, in fact, an attenuated combination of the lakes; while by some the St. Croix has been termed a lake in motion. For about ten miles above tide water at Calais the river has an average width of 500 feet; its annual discharge is estimated at 44,800,000,000 cubic feet; the average fall to tide water is about 300 feet, or 6.5 to the mile and...

Christian Persecution, Martyrdom, and Orthodoxy
Author: Geoffrey Ernest Maurice De Ste. Croix
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN: 0199278121
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 407
Book Description
This volume brings together seven seminal papers by the great radical historian Geoffrey de Ste. Croix, who died in 2000, on early Christian topics, with an especial focus on persecution and martyrdom. Christian martyrdom is a topic which conjures up ready images of inhumane persecutors confronted by Christian heroes who perish for the instant but win the long-term battle for reputation. In five of these essays Ste. Croix scrutinizes the evidence to reveal the significant role ofChristian themselves, first as volunteer martyrs and later, after the triumph of Christianity in the early fourth century, as organizers of much more effective persecutions. A sixth essay pursues the question of the control of Christianity through a comprehensive study of the context for one of theChurch's most important and divisive doctrinal decisions, at the Council of Chalcedon (AD 451); the key role of the emperor and his senior secular officials is revealed, contrary to the prevailing interpretation of Church historians. Finally the attitudes of the early Church towards property and slavery are reviewed, to show the divide between the Gospel message and actual practice.
