George Henry Newton had a dream. His dream was to get out of Zion,
Nevis. The village was poverty stricken. He ventured abroad and
entered the United States. He became a soldier and fought in
W.W.II. Fortunately, he escaped the ravages of the battle field.
During the post war years, he acquired a career, raised his family,
made his mark but became victim of a dependency. He died at age
fifty four, but his eldest son did not let his legacy die with him.

For centuries the Jewish community in Europe possessed a copy of
Matthew in the Hebrew language. The Jews' use of this document
during the Middle Ages is imperfectly known. Occasionally excerpts
from it appeared in polemical writings against Christianity. By the
end of the fourteenth century, however, the entire Hebrew Gospel
appeared in the polemical treatise Even Bonham, by the Spanish
writer Shem-Tob ben -Isaac ben- Shaprut. An important thrust to
this volume is to establish that the Hebrew Matthew of the Even
Bohan predates the fourteenth century. It shares many readings with
ancient Christian writings, some of which were lost in antiquity
only to reappear in modern times. These included Codex Sinaiticus,
the Old Syriac version, the Coptic Gospel of Thomas, and a host of
others. It also analyzes the language, artistic touches, and
theology of the Hebrew Gospel.
Sir George Darwin (1845-1912) was the second son and fifth child of
Charles Darwin. After studying mathematics at Cambridge he read for
the Bar, but soon returned to science and to Cambridge, where in
1883 he was appointed Plumian Professor of Astronomy and
Experimental Philosophy. His family home is now the location of
Darwin College. His work was concerned primarily with the effect of
the sun and moon on tidal forces on Earth, and with the theoretical
cosmogony which evolved from practical observation: he formulated
the fission theory of the formation of the moon (that the moon was
formed from still-molten matter pulled away from the Earth by solar
tides). He also developed a theory of evolution for the
Sun-Earth-Moon system based on mathematical analysis in geophysical
theory. This volume of his collected papers covers oceanic tides
and lunar disturbances of gravity.

a member of a dynasty in which such marriages were common.
