title: Robert Gavin Hampson

text:
Robert Gavin Hampson FEA FRSA (born 1948) is a British poet and academic. Hampson was born and raised in Liverpool, studied in London and Toronto and settled in London. He is currently Research Fellow at the Institute for English Studies, University of London and Emeritus Professor at Royal Holloway. He was also Visiting Professor at the University of Northumbria (2018-21). He is a member of the Poetics Research Centre and the Centre for GeoHumanities at Royal Holloway. He is well known for his contributions to contemporary innovative poetry and the international study of Joseph Conrad.

Early life and education

Robert Gavin Hampson was born in Liverpool in 1948. He studied English literature at King's College London between 1967 and 1970 and was awarded a Commonwealth Scholarship to complete a master's degree at University of Toronto. He then returned to King's College, London, in 1971 where he completed a PhD on Joseph Conrad.

Poetry
During the 1970s he co-edited the poetry magazine Alembic with Peter Barry (poet) and Ken Edwards and was a key figure in the second generation of the British Poetry Revival. His poetry was published in Cid Corman's Origin, Alan Davies's 100 Posters, and in a range of other magazines during the 1970s. It was also included in the Arts Council's anthology, New Poetry 3 (1977). His work as one of the editors of Alembic has received attention in two books by Wolfgang Gortschacher - Little Magazine Profiles: The Little Magazines in Great Britain, 1939-1993  (University of Salzburg, 1993) and Contemporary Views on the Little Magazine Scene (Poetry Salzburg, 2000)- and, more recently, in an interview (with Ken Edwards) by Sophie Seita in the magazine mimeo mimeo (2014). This has now been republished as 'transatlantic axis of alembic in Jacket2.

His best-known work is probably his early long-poem, Seaport (Pushtika, 1995; Shearsman, 2008), which has been written about by Peter Barry, Andrew Duncan, Amy Cutler, Neal Alexander and others. Barry's extended analysis of Seaport begins by noting its 'extensive use of "incorporated data" of various kinds', ranging from various literary sources (including works by Defoe, Melville, Hawthorne and Conrad) to 'historical accounts of the growth and development of the port, of the history of race relations in the city, newspaper accounts of local events and local guidebooks' (Contemporary British Poetry and the City, p.159). He concludes by describing this long poem as 'a large-scale vehicle of surprising flexibility which can accommodate the overtly political, the archival-historical and radically pared-down versions of poetry's more familiar affective modes' (Contemporary British Poetry and the City, p.162). Andrew Duncan similarly suggested that Seaport was 'a major work, where the recovery of pure facts without explanatory annotation allows the build up of a new understanding on the large scale' (The Council of Heresy, p. 29). Cutler argues that, in this work, Hampson 'shows the conflict between the different social typologies of space in the seaport'. Neal Alexander draws attention to the poem's demonstration of how 'multiple channels of traffic have shaped the port of Liverpool over time' - the cotton trade, the slave trade, Irish emigration. In the post 1939 section of the CUP English Literature in Context, John Brannigan describes Seaport as 'an important book for its extraordinary poetic account of the history and development of Liverpool'.More recently, Phillip Jones has included discussion of Seaport in his 2018 Nottingham University PhD, 'Rewriting the Atlantic archipelago: Modern British poetry at the coast'.

Hampson's poetry has gone through various stages. The early work explored open-field poetics and what Peter Barry has called 'content-specific' poetics (in Seaport), but also treated text in How Nell Scored (1976) and 'on the trail' (1976). He subsequently explored self-conscious narrative and montage in his Godard-inspired film poems 'one plus one' (1980) and 'handy narratives' (1985); and a phrasal poetics (derived from Lyotard's 'The Differend' and his own critical engagement with the work of Adrian Clarke) in a human measure (1989) and unicorns: 7 studies in velocity (1989) - and subsequent volumes. This part of his career is represented in Assembled Fugitives (2001); some of the critical engagement with Clarke is evidenced in his essay 'Producing the Unknown' in New British poetries (1994); and Clarke, in turn, has discussed 'a human measure' and 'unicorns' in 'Robert Hampson and a Neo-Formalist Moment', his contribution to For Robert (2017), edited by Redell Olsen. More recent work by Hampson has been engaged in exploring the resources of the sonnet. His poetry has  been translated into German, Italian and Rumanian. See, for example, Wolfgang Gortschacher & Ludwig Laher, So Also Ist Das: Eine Zweisprachige Anthologie Britischer Gegenswartslyrik (Haymon-Verlag, 2002), and the translation of the sequence 'Lou Mistrau' in the Italian journal Soglie (August 2014).

In 2012, his collection Reworked Disasters (knivesforksandspoons press) was long-listed for the Forward Prize. In his comprehensive study of the sonnet in English, The Sonnet (Oxford University Press, 2019), Stephen Regan discusses Reworked Disasters in relation to sonnets by Ken Edwards and Tony Lopez as examples of the contemporary avant-garde sonnet. He describes Hampson's 'serious political focus on global warfare, imperialism, and torture' in this 'linguistically discontinuous' fourteen-sonnet sequence. (The Sonnet, p. 382).Hampson's more recent work includes 'love's damage', which was published in the Surrey Poetry Festival Magazine (21.05.11), edited by Amy De'Ath and Jonty Tiplady; 'sonnets 4 sophie' first published in Veer Vier (September 2013), while an explanation of colours was reviewed by Edmund Hardy and Melissa Flores-Borquez in Intercapillary Space and out of sight (crater, 2012) and Liverpool (hugs &) kisses, his 2014 collaboration with Robert Sheppard, are reviewed on the 'other room' website. In their review of out of sight, the Institute of Electronic Crinolines referred to 'The artificial highs of Robert Hampson's noir on overload' and described the text as evoking 'a knowingly flimsy fantasy of what resistance to all forms of identification might be like'. More recently, he has contributed to Robert Sheppard's European Union of Imaginary Author's project through a collaboration with Sheppard. This collaboration is included in Robert Sheppard (ed.) Twitters for a Lark: Poetry of the European Union of Imaginary Authors (Shearsman, 2017).

His sequence 'Volupte: 22 Constructions for Ewald Matare' is included in the Spring 2021 issue of Long Poem Magazine, and the volume Covodes 1-19 was published in December 2021 by Artery editions. Some of the Covodes have been published in Molly Bloom  and junction box, and a recording of a performance of some of the Covodes (with accompaniment by cellist Jo Levi) at the 2021 Surrey Poetry Festival is available at vimeo.com/556947245. A full recording of Covodes 1-19 and Levy's 'Suite for Solo Cello' is available at www.arteryeditions.bandcamp.com.In a review of recent poetry, Billy Mills (poet) has commented on Covodes: 'Hampson folds his multiple concerns into a single nexus with the multiple challenges that confront this ambition for equity that should underpin our society ... Against which we see the prevailing influence of money and power'. A selection from Covodes 1-19 (translated into Italian by Marzia Dati) was published in Soglie, XXII, 1-2 (April–August 2020), and an interview with Robert Hampson about Covodes 1-19 by Belinda Gianessi was published in the Tears in the Fence blog (http://tearsinthefence.com/blog).

 Scholarship

 Poetry criticism and creative writing
Hampson taught at Royal Holloway, University of London, from 1973, and was Professor of Modern Literature there from 2000. From 2016 to 2019, he was Distinguished Teaching and Research Fellow in the Department of English at Royal Holloway. He is currently Research Fellow at the Institute for English Studies, University of London and Emeritus Professor at Royal Holloway. He was also Visiting Professor at the University of Northumbria (2018-21).

He has contributed to the critical discourse about recent and contemporary poetry - most visibly through a series of co-edited books: The New British poetries: The scope of the possible (Manchester University Press, 1993), co-edited with Peter Barry, which was described as a pioneering work in the field; Frank O'Hara Now: New Essays on the New York Poet (Liverpool University Press, 2010) co-edited with Will Montgomery; Clasp: Late modernist poetry in London in the 1970s (Shearsman, 2016), co-edited with Ken Edwards; and The Allen Fisher Companion (Shearsman, 2020), co-edited with Cris Cheek. In their essay for The Year's Work in English Studies, K. O'Hanlon describes Clasp as 'essential reading for anyone interested in getting to grips  with post-war poetry and the avant garde'. Lyndon Davies begins his lengthy review of The Allen Fisher Companion in the Journal of British and Irish Innovative Poetics (13 [1]) with the observation: 'Most of whatever it is you might look for in a companion to the work of a poet / artist as multifariously challenging as Allen Fisher, this book supplies in spades'.

During his time as head of the Department of English, Hampson founded the MA in poetic practice at Royal Holloway, University of London, with Redell Olsen in 2002 and the MA in creative writing with Andrew Motion in 2003. With Helen Carr and others, he was instrumental in bringing about the regulation change which enabled the introduction of creative writing into the University of London PhD. He has regularly taught on the poetic practice pathway, and he was director of the MA in creative writing for 2016–17. Graduates of the creative writing programme whom he taught include the novelists Tahmima Anam, Adam O'Riordan, Anna Whitwham and Sarah Perry and the poets Robert Selby and Declan Ryan. Graduates of the poetic practice programme whom he taught include Elizabeth-Jane Burnett, Prudence Chamberlain, Becky Cremin, Frances Kruk, Ryan Ormonde, Jooyeon Park, Nisha Ramayya,Sophie Robinson, Karenjit Sandhu  and Steven Willey. He recently co-edited pertinent actions (Osmosis Press, 2023) with Briony Hughes, an anthology of work by alumni of the Poetic Practice programme (with a Foreword by Marjorie Perloff).

He has also made a significant contribution to innovative poetry in London as the organiser of events and conferences and as the convenor and curator of two important seminar series. In the 1970s he organised a short reading series, Future Events, at The White Swan in Covent Garden with Ken Edwards and Mike Dobbie. At the end of the 1970s, he and Erik Vonna-Michel organised three one-day 'Saturday Courses' at Lower Green Farm: Bob Cobbing, Allen Fisher and Eric Mottram were the subjects of the different days. (See Ken Edwards's account of Lower Green Farm in Clasp and in his memoir Wild Metrics.) In the 1980s, he organised two conferences on Contemporary innovative Poetry at the Centre for English Studies in the University of London Senate House, and, in the 1990s, he facilitated the six SVP Colloquia that took place there (organised by Lawrence Upton). In 1999, he was asked to take over the TALKS series that Bob Perelman had established at King's College, London, during Pereleman's year as a visiting professor there. Hilda Bronstein has given an account of the early years of the London TALKS series in How2 The TALKS series continued for some years at King's under Hampson's direction and then moved to Birkbeck College, University of London, where Redell Olsen and Frances Presley were co-organisers with him. It was superseded by the Contemporary Innovative Poetry Research Seminar, which he runs with Amy Evans Bauer at the University of London Institute for English Studies. In 2004, he set up the Runnymede International Literary Festival in collaboration with Royal Holloway and Runnymede Borough Council. He has continued to be the Festival Director. More recently, the Festival transferred some of it activities to Central London as 'Runnymede in London' through collaboration with the Centre for Creative Collaboration (c4cc), which also provided the venue for Polyply, the event series run by Redell Olsen, Will Montgomery and Kristen Kreider.

In 2010–11, he collaborated with the Palestinian visual artist, Leena Nammari, on a concertina book, The Long View, as part of the Beyond Text project. During 2014, he curated an event series, Amid the Ruins, with Carrie Foulkes at the Daniel Blau Gallery, Hoxton Square, London. In 2017, on the occasion of his retirement from full-time teaching, Redell Olsen edited For Robert: An Anthology (RHUL Poetics Research Centre / The Institute of the Electric Crinolines).

 Joseph Conrad Scholarship
He has also pursued a parallel career as a Conrad scholar and editor with three monographs on Joseph Conrad: Joseph Conrad: Betrayal and Identity (1992), Cross-Cultural Encounters in Joseph Conrad's Malay Fiction (2000) and Conrad's Secrets (2013). Conrad's Secrets received the first-place prize for the Adam Gillon Award (2015) from the Joseph Conrad Society of America for the best recent work on Joseph Conrad. In 2017, he received the Ian P. Watt Award from the Joseph Conrad Society of America for excellence in Conrad studies. Previous recipients of this life-long achievement award include Norman Sherry and J. Hillis Miller. He has subsequently been awarded the third-place prize for the Adam Gillon Award (2018) for the collection of essays, Conrad and Language (Edinburgh U. P. 2016), which he co-edited with Katherine Isobel Baxter.
In 2020, he published a critical biography, Joseph Conrad, in the Critical Lives series from Reaktion Books. Maya Jasanoff describes it as 'insightful, judicious and elegant': Joseph Conrad marvellously distils a lifetime of learning by one of the world's leading Conrad scholars. This is the best short guide to Conrad's life available'. His most recent publication is The Reception of Joseph Conrad in Europe (Bloomsbury, 2022), co-edited with Veronique Pauly.

He was editor of The Conradian (1989–96) and co-edited Conrad and Theory with Andrew William Gibson (Rodopi, 1998). He also edited various Conrad texts – Lord Jim (1986), Victory (1989), Heart of Darkness (1995) –  for Penguin books, as well as Rudyard Kipling's Something of Myself (1987) and Soldiers Three/ In Black & White (1993) and Rider Haggard's King Solomon's Mines (2000). His edition of Heart of Darkness for Penguin included the first accurate transcription of Conrad's 'Congo Diary' and was the first to use the 'Carte des routes de portage' (1894), which was supplied to Belgian State Officials for the journey up-river from Matadi, to annotate Conrad's account of the same journey, which he undertook four years earlier. He also edited Nostromo and co-edited (with Andrew Purssell), Ford Madox Ford's Parade's End and Conrad's Lingard Trilogy for Wordsworth. (A short lecture by him on Heart of Darkness is available on https://www.massolit.io/lecturers/119. A longer lecture is available on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Ni4qpFdyG4. The lecture he gave on 'Joseph Conrad Today' for the launch of the Joseph Conrad Fellowship in Warsaw in December 2021 is available on YouTube: youtube.com/watch?v=NeE6Ugg7fEU. And the lecture he gave to PUNO (The Polish University Abroad) on 'Conrad, Colonialism and Africa' in March 2022 is also available on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMqUe1YtoYw.) A lecture he gave in March 2022 for St Mary's University on 'Joseph Conrad in the Modern World: Conrad and Africa', discussing 'Heart of Darkness and 'An Outpost of Progress' is also available on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrUiOo2dPds. He co-edited (with Helen Chambers) Guy de Maupassant's Mademoiselle Perle and other stories (riverrun, 2020), a selection from the translations made by Elsie Martindale and Ada Galsworthy, which were first published in 1903 and 1904 respectively. Conrad was in touch with both Elsie Martindale and Ada Galsworthy about their translations. Hampson was elected Chair of the Joseph Conrad Society(UK) in 2015.

He was an adviser for Hanyut (film), a film by the prize-winning Malaysian director U-Wei Haji Saari, based on Conrad's first novel, Almayer's Folly. He also appears in the 2018 TCM documentary, El sueno imposible de David Lean, an exploration of David Lean's long-held plan to adapt Conrad's masterpiece Nostromo as a film <https://youtube.com/watch?v-O2eDIM5XnOU> and in Sladami Conrada (In the footsteps of Conrad) on Polish television. In 2019, the Polish television series Chuligan Literacki (Literary Hooligan) devoted two successive programmes to his work on Joseph Conrad. This series, on TVP Kultura, presented fifteen programmes on 'the most outstanding English writers, philosophers and historians', and included programmes on Quentin Skinner, Antony Beevor and others. The programmes are available on vod.tvp.pl/video/chuligan-literacki.roberthampson-cz-1,40566562.

Academic service
In addition, he has undertaken various forms of service to the academic community. He was a panel member for the RAE 2008 and the REF 2014. He was also a panel member for the Rumanian and Hong Kong RAEs. He was a member of the QAA Benchmarking Group for Creative Writing and is currently a member of the Practice Research Advisory Group; the European Science Foundation Panel of Experts; and the Commonwealth Scholarship Commission Advisory Committee.

Personal life
His first wife was the Bengali children's writer Sibani Raychaudhuri. In Kolkotta, her early work was published in the children's magazine Shondesh edited by Satyajit Ray. In London she was on the Committee of the South Asian Literary Society (founded by Ranjana Ash) and a member of the Asia Women Writers' Collective. She published translations of Bengali poetry, produced jointly with Hampson, in the London Magazine and the TLS; short stories in Spare Rib; and poems and stories in the two anthologies produced by the Collective: Write of Way (The Women's Press, 1988) and Flaming Spirit (Virago, 1994). Hampson later married the George Eliot critic Gerlinde Roder-Bolton.

Fictionalised appearances
He appears as 'a Conrad specialist in London by the name of X' in Jenny Diski's Skating to Antarctica (1997), and he and his colleague Andrew Gibson (Andrew William Gibson) also make an appearance (lightly disguised) in Adam Roberts's 2003 science-fiction novel, Polystom.

text:
The Juchipila Formation is a geologic formation in Mexico. It preserves fossils dating back to the Neogene period.<ref name="carranzacastanedaetal2013"/ Closely corresponding to the other Hemphillian faunal assemblages of North America, it is significant for understanding the palaeofauna of Miocene and Pliocene central Mexico.

Paleoenvironment
The paleoenvironment of the Juchipila Formation was largely terrestrial in nature. The El Mixton locality consists of a shallow lacustrine succession, beginning near the bottom of an arroyo. Ostracods and gastropods are abundant in these deposits. A thin bed of unconsolidated white ash-fall material, consisting of felsic glass shards and small, overlies the shallow lacustrine succession of the El Mixton locality. In this part of the succession, camelid and proboscidian footprints are known. The loose paleosols of the El Mixton contain mammal fossils, including the canid Borophagus and the equid Dinohippus. The terrestrial Puente de Cofradía locality bears fossils of Calippus and Cosoryx. The volcaniclastic sandstone of the El Resbalón bears indeterminate megalonychids and antilocaprids.

Paleobiota

title: List of cities and towns in Greenland before 2008

text:
This is a list of cities, towns and settlements in Greenland.

The English term 'city' hardly applies to any populated area in Greenland (although several places in Greenland are considered "cities"), as the most populated place is Nuuk with 14,501 inhabitants. In Greenland they distinguish two kinds of settled areas: by (Danish for 'town') and bygd (Danish for 'settlement'). The seat of each municipality is a by, whereas every other settlement in a municipality is a bygd. A bygd can have anything from one to about five hundred inhabitants. Many places have Danish names in addition to the Greenlandic names. The Danish name, when applicable, is shown in parentheses.

The first list shows a ranked list of all towns with more than 1000 population. The second list
is ordered by region and municipality and includes all with more than 50 population plus some of the even smaller settlements.

title: Fédote Bourgasoff

text:
Fédote Bourgasoff (9 March 1890 – 12 May 1945) was a Russian Empire-born French cinematographer.

Life and career
He was born Fiodor Burgasow  in Lokhvitsa, Poltava then in the Russian Empire and now in Ukraine. After establishing himself in Russian Empire cinema, Bourgasoff fled to France following the Russian Revolution. He worked frequently on films there until his death, often on projects involving many other Russian exiles.

Burgasov began his career as a still photographer and cameraman with Iosif Ermolev's company and subsequently lensed Yakov Protazanov's Father Sergius (1918), among other films. After his immigration to France as a member of Ermolev's entourage, Burgasov became the most prolific cinematographer in the newly founded Paris company Les Films Ermolieff, renamed later, after Ermolev's departure, Productions Albatros. Thus, he filmed Aleksandr Volkov's serial The House of Mystery (1923), Viacheslav Turzhanski's The Song of Triumphant Love (1923), and numerous others. Burgasov successfully worked with French directors whose films also were produced by Ermolev, including Jean Epstein (The Lion of the Moguls, 1924) and Marcel L’Herbier (The Late Mattia Pascal, 1925). He was the cameraman on several sound versions of silent movie hits such as The Loves of Casanova (1933) and The Child of Carnival (1934); among his noteworthy works are Jean Renoir's The Lower Depths (1936) from Maksim Gorky's play, and Max Ophüls's Werther (1938), an adaptation of Goethe's novel. His last film was Sacha Guitry's La Malibran (1944), a biopic about a French opera singer.

title: List of cities and towns in Greenland

text:
This is a list of cities and towns in Greenland as of 2021. The term 'city' is used loosely for any populated area in Greenland, given that the most populated place is Nuuk, the capital, with 18,800 inhabitants. In Greenland, two kinds of settled areas are distinguished: illoqarfik (Greenlandic for 'town'; by in Danish) and nunaqarfik (Greenlandic for 'settlement'; bygd in Danish). The difference between the two decreased since the new administrative units were introduced in 2009, with the influence of previous municipality centers decreasing.

As of October 2021, Greenland has 56,523 people living along the coast and many islands. There are no permanent human inland settlements or towns in Greenland; the only inland human settlements that exist are seasonal research stations.

Towns with a population of more than 1,000

There are 13 towns in Greenland with a population exceeding 1,000:

Towns and settlements with a population between 200 and 1,000
There are 14 towns and settlements in Greenland with a population between 200 and 1,000:

Settlements with a population between 100 and 200
There are 14 settlements in Greenland with a population between 100 and 200:

He hit for a .271 batting average and a .755 on-base plus slugging percentage at the Triple A level, to go along with ten home runs and 62 runs batted in.

The Braves promoted Ruiz to the major leagues on September 17, 2016. The next day, he was announced as a pinch hitter in the seventh inning of a game against the Washington Nationals, but was unable to make a plate appearance before the contest was called due to rain. Ruiz tripled for his first major league hit on September 28, against Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Frank Herrmann.

Before reporting to spring training in 2017, Ruiz sought help from Azusa Pacific University track coach Kevin Reid, who aided Ruiz in improving his agility and conditioning.

title: Dan Kane

text:
Daniel Paul Kane (born 1961) is an American news reporter and investigative journalist for the Raleigh, North Carolina newspaper The News & Observer, notable for uncovering and exposing the academics scandal at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Kane is credited for unearthing substantive academic fraud in conjunction with whistleblower Mary Willingham regarding student-athletes who were directed towards phony classes, according to allegations. According to The New York Times, Kane was subjected to "violent threats, angry screeds, and Twitter flame campaigns" in response to his reporting. He "first uncovered a pattern of lax oversight and risibly easy or nonexistent classes disproportionately benefiting athletes".

Kane joined the News & Observer in 1997. He covered local and state government and North Carolina State University, legislative corruption, and the formation of the state lottery. His reporting on North Carolina's secretive personnel law exposed how the state kept much information about state employees from public scrutiny, and it led to a new state law to expedite information-gathering about the pay and performance of state employees. He won a First Amendment Award from the Associated Press Managing Editors for work which advances the freedom of information. He won an award for investigative journalism in 2013 from the Associated Press Sports Editors society. Along with his colleagues J. Andrew Curliss and Andrew Carter, he won a special citation for reporting on the 2010 University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill football scandal. The team also won a National Headliner Award for education writing from the Press Club of Atlantic City. With Jane Stancill and J. Andrew Curliss, he won the Duke University/Green-Rossiter award for "distinguished newspaper work in higher education." He is a 1983 graduate of Saint John Fisher College in Rochester, New York.

title: Battleships (song)

text:
"Battleships" is a song recorded by American rock band Daughtry for their fourth studio album, Baptized (2013). The song was written by Daughtry frontman Chris Daughtry, Sam Hollander, and Martin Johnson, while production was handled by Johnson. It was serviced to hot adult contemporary radio in the US through RCA Records on May 12, 2014, as the third overall single from the album and the second to be promoted in North America. The song debuted at number 38 on the Billboard Adult Pop Songs chart.

Content
The song is a pop rock power ballad that describes a tempestuous, conflict-riddled relationship wherein the narrator and his significant other "love like battleships". As one of the most strongly pop-influenced songs on the album, Chris Daughtry explained to The Hollywood Reporter that he was nervous fans would not take to "Battleships" due to it being "too weird", "too out-there" and/or "too pop", but that he fell in love with the new sound while recording it. The "boom boo-boom boom boo-boom boom boom" hook in the chorus drew attention and some criticism from music critics, who described it as "stunningly weird," "silly," and "crazy".

Music video
A lyric video for the song premiered April 9, 2014. On June 16, Chris Daughtry tweeted a photo with the caption "Things are gettin CRAZY on the #battleships video shoot!!!!", suggesting that an official music video was being filmed at that time. The official music video for "Battleships" premiered August 12, 2014 and features behind-the-scenes footage from the band's summer tour with the Goo Goo Dolls.

title: John Wesley Haley

text:
John Wesley Haley (August 25, 1878, Bracebridge, Ontario, Canada - January 26, 1951, Cleveland, Ohio, USA) was pastor, missionary and mission strategist. He grew up in a farming family near Sarnia, Ontario, was involved in church planting in Saskatchewan, worked as a missionary in Mozambique, South Africa, and Burundi. After serving for many years as a Free Methodist Church missionary in Southern Africa, Haley and his family moved to Burundi in the African Great Lakes Region and initiated new church planting work. Haley was profoundly influenced by the writings of Roland Allen and the idea of the indigenous church principle in cross-cultural mission strategy.

Early life
John Wesley Haley was born in Bracebridge (Muskoka), Ontario on August 25, 1878.  His family moved to Sombra, Ontario.  In 1898, John Haley was converted at a Free Methodist camp meeting held on his father's farm in Lambton County, Ontario. In 1900, he was appointed by the West Ontario Conference to assist Rev. W.H. Wilson in pioneering in Western Canada (Manitoba/Saskatchewan).  In 1901, he was granted a local preacher's license.

Career
Haley sailed for Africa in 1902 where he spent many years as a missionary in Mozambique (first called Portuguese East Africa) and South Africa.

As previously arranged, Esther Jane (Jennie) Hamilton, who was born in Charlemont, Ontario, June 24, 1877, joined him in 1905 and they married on March 15, 1905, in Fairview, near Umzumbe, Natal, South Africa. On January 6, 1906, Their first child, Florence, was born in Durban, Natal, South Africa.

For health and family reasons, the Haleys left Africa in 1909 and, following medical advice to get onto the land, took up "homesteading" in Saskatchewan on a section of land that was given them by the Canadian government. On October 22, 1910, their son Blake was born.

In 1913, the Haley moved from Saskatchewan to take up a small church in Niagara Falls, Ontario. On August 24, 1914, Dorothy was born in Niagara Falls, Ontario.

Holding up their return to Africa, the Haleys moved from Niagara Falls to Sarnia to care for Haley's ailing mother and sister in September 1915.

In 1915, Bishop Wilson T Hogue of the Free Methodist Church, in his massive History of the Free Methodist Church of North America, spoke of Haley as one of the best missionaries in their movement

In 1917, the Haleys returned to Fairview, Natal, South Africa, where they lived for about six years. July 7, 1919, Peace was born at Fairview, Natal, South Africa.

In 1932, Haley made a preliminary trip to Burundi.

Without a furlough, Haley moved to Burundi in November 1934, arriving May 2, 1935 at Muyebe, Burundi.

On July 16, 1935, Jennie, Dorothy and Peace joined him at Muyebe. Dorothy's responsibility was to provide teachers for the outschools. Peace dispensed medicine and advice in what became later known as the "Morning Glory Clinic."

Planning to retire in South Africa in the spring, John Wesley Haley died at his daughter's home in Cleveland, Ohio on January 26, 1951, at the age of 72 and was buried in Welland, Ontario. Esther Jane ("Jennie") (Hamilton) Haley died in April 1952.
