James Joseph Sylvester Mathematics is the music of reason. James Joseph Sylvester May not music be described as the mathematics of the sense, mathematics as music of the reason? The musician feels mathematics, the mathematician thinks music: music the dream, mathematics the working life. James Joseph Sylvester So long as a man remains a gregarious and sociable being, he cannot cut himself off from the gratification of the instinct of imparting what he is learning, of propagating through others the ideas and impressions seething in his own brain, without stunting and atrophying his moral nature and drying up the surest sources of his future intellectual replenishment. James Joseph Sylvester The early study of Euclid made me a hater of geometry.

SONS OF DEWITT COLONY TEXAS Flags of Texas Independence Battle of San Jacinto James Austin Sylvester Hero and Flag Bearer of the Battle of San Jacinto, Capturer of "Napoleon of the West" Santa Anna From the Cavalcade of Jackson County by I.T. Taylor James Austin Sylvester was born in Baltimore, Maryland, in 1807. After reaching manhood he moved to Kentucky. Captain Sidney Sherman raised a company of volunteers to aid Texas in her struggle for independence. James A. Sylvester joined this company of volunteers on December 18, 1835, at Newport, Kentucky. Captain Sherman's Company left Nacogdoches February 29, 1836, for Gonzales, but it seems that Sylvester had preceded them, for on January 10th he was commissioned a captain in the reserve army of the Texas Republic by Henry Smith at San Felipe de Austin. The original commission is in the Rosenberg Library, Galveston, Texas. They were given a farewell reception at the home of one of the leading citizens of Cincinnati the night before Colonel Sherman and his men left for Texas. At this reception the ladies of Newport presented the company of volunteers with a beautiful battle flag. The presentation was made by Mrs. Sherman herself. The flag was beautiful blue silk, bordered with gold fringe. In the center was painted a female figure representing the Goddess of Liberty and the words, "Liberty or Death

March 20, 2000 VOL. 29, NO. 28 Math's No. 1 Faculty Member James Joseph Sylvester arrived in 1876 to build an infant university By James Stimpert Special to The Gazette James Stimpert, of MSEL Special Collections, is Homewood archivist. This is the first in an occasional historical series that will appear in the year leading up to the 125th anniversary of the founding of Johns Hopkins When James Joseph Sylvester came to The Johns Hopkins University in 1876, he was the most senior of the original faculty, in terms of age and prior accomplishments. The university's first professor of mathematics , the 61-year-old Sylvester had already had a full career in both academia and private business. Alternately brilliant and erratic, warm and irascible, benevolent and egocentric, Sylvester helped propel the infant university to the forefront of scholarly attention soon after his arrival in Baltimore. The founding chair of the Department of Mathematics, James Joseph Sylvester came from England to Johns Hopkins after a full career in academia and business. Born in 1814 to the family of a Jewish merchant in London, Sylvester showed mathematical talent at an early age. Barred from most universities because of his religion, he entered the University of London at the age of 14. After a number of false starts, Sylvester passed his examinations at St. John's College, Cambridge. Because he could not subscribe to the Thirty-Nine Articles of the Church of England, however, Sylvester was denied his degree and any hope of competing for prizes and fellowships. He later succeeded in earning his bachelor's and master's degrees from Trinity College, Dublin. Seeing opportunities in the United States, he took up residence at the University of Virginia, where he assumed the chair of mathematics in 1841.

PERESIE Joseph and Enrica (BIZZETTI) PERESIE and family Joseph PERESIE and his wife Enrica BIZZETTI both are believed to have come from that section of Northern Italy that was once part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In his citizenship papers, Joseph renounced allegiance to Franz-Josef of Austria-Hungary. So far, the only clues I have about his background are this notation, a photograph from a studio with branches in Trento and Roveretto and my grandmother's assertion that Joseph came from Trente Trieste. He settled in Jefferson Co, PA and was a coal miner while his wife ran a boarding house. Louis Charles and his family moved to Erie Co, NY, about 1941-1942.
