Not long the measure of my falling hours, For nearest of all stars was thine to ours
Finding "Caussin's manor" in such select neighborhood was both inspiring and challenging, thus:
30/4/1784 Saint Germain's (=A.H.Cochin=Gioachino Cocchi) funeral with 54 years of age, is witnessed by his cousins Jean Phillipe Hippolite Lambert, coseiller du roi et Hery Cochin, avocat.
Jaques Denis Cochin's "Spiritual Writings", a posthumous work published by his brother (Paris, 1784). Cochin is noted especially for his philanthropy. The needs of his own parish suggested the foundation of a hospital. The idea, conceived in 1780, resulted in the completion of a building 1784 of which The Sisters of Charity took charge.
On June 23, 1784 the Bavarian Elector, Karl Theodor, published an edict forbidding his subjects to be members of secret or unauthorized associations.

Carroll, John - Correspondence (Box: 23 Fold: 11)
ALS (transcript) from John Carroll to Cardinal Leonardo Antonelli, dated 3/1/1785. ALS (transcript in hand of Shea) from Rev. Robert Molyneux to Carroll, dated 3/28/1785. 1 ALS (transcript in hand of Shea) from Carroll to Rev. Charles Whelan, dated 4/16/1785.
(Antonelli:In addition to the responsible posts already mentioned, he filled those of grand penitentiary, prefect of the Signature of Justice and of the Congregation of the Index, and pro-secretary of Briefs. He assisted in the preparation of the Concordat, and was present at the election of Pope Pius VII in 1800, whom he later accompanied to Paris in 1804.As such Antonelli's decision saved later on Cagliostro from execution)
A general Convent of Masons (Strict Observance) in France and abroad was convoked by the secret committee for February 15, 1785. Savalette de Langes was elected president.

Carroll, John - Correspondence (Box: 23 Fold: 13)
1 ALS from John Carroll to Rev. John Causse, dated 8/16/1785
In (crude) conclusion: John "Causse", obviously a Cochin-Caussin, justifies the ommission of the date of the deed of tranfer of the Upgate Reeves property to Maryland authorities!!!.
Furthermore:
As Jean d'Anastasy, papyri collector, was himself a "Caussin", the family link to the jesuit order (at the time persecuted in Europe but finding its way in USA) evidently explains E.A.Poe's "eastern expedition" original purpose making his "Quaker" personality a cover.
Edgar's irish origins as well as his relations to Carey (Carey and Lea, publishers)......
Carey, Mathew 1760 - 1839:Philadelphia publisher, writer, and promoter of the "American System".
Born in Dublin, Ireland and became an anti-British newspaper editor there. Fled to the U.S. where he settled in Philadelphia, founded the Pennsylvania Herald in 1785, and the Columbian Magazine in 1786. He became a very prominent publisher, and a well-known advocate of the "American System", of federally-backed internal improvements and protective tariffs on manufactured goods, to build up the U.S. as a manufacturing nation with a strong internal commerce. In late 1814, at the low point for the U.S., of the War of 1812, he published the Olive Branch, aimed at stiffening American resolve, and reconciling the Federalists who had mostly opposed it, and the Republicans (Jeffersonians) who had prosecuted the war (though they obstructed earlier defensive measures). The book was praised by Thomas Jefferson, and quoted by Robert Y. Hayne (in an attack on the Federalists) in his famous Senate debate with Daniel Webster.

Yes, definitely, the subject did not belong to the poetry forum and propably not to "General Literature" either, so why don't you (administrator) just totally remove it?
BTW As sole judges of your "prevailing literature" thing, viewers have already rated this thread accordingly!
On "hypocritical idiocy" and "prevailing literature".
Greek words and phrases may have a different interpretation than what your dictionaries tell you, viewer:
"Hypocrisis", etymologicaly, means judgement (applause or rejection) from "below":
Artists (actors=ethopoioi (grk)=moral makers) taking part in theatrical performances were under such criticism by the spectators and as such, originaly, a "hypocrite" was the spectator not the actor.
"Idiocy", on the other hand, originaly meant the particular characteristics of a person or a group of persons. Hence "idiom" meaning the (different) language such person or group speak, often "barbaric" (bar-bar=blah-blah) ie difficult to understand.
As such, the phrase "Hypocritical idiocy" should mean the distance the spectators-judges decide to create between themselves and the idiotic (barbaric etc) artist unable to recreate and transmit "ethos".
Same thing for an author and his readers or the people of a society and their leaders.
When the actor becomes himself the "hypocrite", as the term has developed today, his "idiocy" is "hypocriticized" by noone in particular thus a floppy a theatrical performance is often applauded by the idiotic crowds.
Hence the reluctance of our "outspoken hypocrites" to explain that "literature", originating from latin liTTeratura, always meant the vehicle conveying garbage (animal dung etc) to feed the crowds thus extracting their applause, thus "prevailing".
There have never been any "literary" claims for this Announcement, the subjects of interest where defined from the beginning and obviously this has been an "instant online research" kind of thing, "original" in as much as the subject is important historicaly and the "author" constrained by his own limitations and his bias (blood relations) towards his "heroes".
"...to enjoy equal rights" or "....created equal"?
