Borchert Field
Welcome to BorchertField.com, the online museum of the American Association Milwaukee Brewers, 1902-1952
Because Milwaukee was playing baseball long before 1953.
On This Day - "About the Girls"
On this day seventy-five years ago, on July 26, 1944, the Milwaukee Journal's sports editor R. G. Lynch devoted his column "Maybe I'm Wrong" to printing letters from his readers.
What's notable for us is that two of the five letters in Lynch's mailbag were about our Milwaukee Chicks baseball club. struggling to bring the All-American Girls' Professional Ball League to Milwaukee.
Maybe I'm Wrong
By R. G. LYNCH
[Sports Editor]
About the Girls
FROM "A New Fan," E. Lake View av,: I attended the girls' game at Borchert field last Wednesday and heard the Milwaukee symphony orchestra. My attitude was a critical one but I came away a fan. The girls were attractive in their neat uniforms and they played a clever game of baseball. Dr. Julius Ehrlich and his orchestra played very well indeed. I do hope, and I believe many others will hope with me, that Dr. Ehrlich will include some of the semiclassics with his symphonic music in programs to come, for we all like to hear familiar and loved music beautifully played.
The fact that we attended the concert - game combination again Thursday should be sufficient evidence that we loved it. We had not seen a professional baseball game for several years but the entire family turned out for this.
Excellent feedback, and exactly the response that league founder Philip K. Wrigley was hoping for when he paired his league with Milwaukee's classical music scene. For this one anonymous Whitefish Bay family, at least, Wrigley's novel experiment was a roaring success.
The second letter Lynch printed was also positive, but more along the lines of offering constructive criticism.
FROM A. G. Heinmiller, 342 N. Water st.: Maybe symphony concerts will help to bring up the attendance at the girls' baseball games, but I think a reasonable price might be a bigger encouragement for the fans to come out. I'm a pretty loyal fan, myself, but I haven't been able to make myself pay 95c to see a game that lasts about 1 hour 15 minutes, in which they make all the way from 5 to 15 errors, when I can see the Brewers for the same price. I think a 50c price plus tax would show as much net revenue and bring out a crowd. Or why not try a two for one plan a few times?
This isn't a new suggestion, but it's a very sensible one. It seems short-sighted to price the brand-new Chicks at the same prices the Brewers could command, considering that the Brews had a forty-year head start and were playing at a level right below the Major Leagues.
We know the Chicks had several free-or-reduced-price specials for paperboy baseball leagues and for Red Cross blood donors. And that is a great start to get people through the turnstiles, but we hear a constant refrain that the ticket prices were making it hard to bring them back again.
I'm also fascinated by A. G. Heinmiller's description of the games themselves. We knew that AAGPBL games, at least in Milwaukee, were fast-paced affairs, with lots of baserunning and lots of errors. But seventy-five minutes? That's astounding.

i didn't fall asleep until 8am and woke up an hour later to converse with the client via instant messaging. i told her the problem, how everything was fixed except for one particular functionality, and i was granted a temporary reprieve until monday morning, which is good because i have more time to finish the code but bad because my weekend will be ruined as i spend it working.
with just one hour of sleep, i left to go to work at squid. despite the lack of proper slumber, i didn't feel particularly tired. i think the secret was my 3 hour nap late last night, plus i knew i'd be able to get a good night's sleep tonight. sweet near all-nighter. brings back memories. i thought about michael, coming into the office super early to work. i remembered roy coding on his computer, cigarette smoking in his mouth, eyes half closed. good times all! programming at times is as much about physical endurance as it is about brain power.
in the afternoon, the office running crew ran to north station so alex could get some more office keys made at this place wedged in between hooters and coyote ugly. after a long wait (kristine and i played with all the floor model locks and door knobs), the counter guy told alex he couldn't copy the keys because they were issued with a security check and the signature on the card wasn't alex's. mission unaccomplished, we ran along the freedom trail to charlestown, to the bunker hill monument. i never knew that part of charlestown was so nice, reminded me of beacon hill, sunnier and with wider streets. it was my first time visiting the bunker hill monument. there was a surprising amount of people for a weekday, mostly senior citizen tourists. a group of them murmured to one another, "look look look," as we approached the base of the monument, about to run upstairs, as if our ascent was part of the entertainment. there's nearly 300 steps to the top, but i slowed to a walk around 100. the higher up i got, the harder it was to take that next step. finally we made it to the top, with a nice view of northern boston and beyond.
coming back, we walked right below I-93 north of boston, in the shadow of the zakim bridge, where there's a park we never knew existed, along the final quarter of the charles river before it empties into boston harbor. there's a walkway that goes through a series of locks, and these colored steel tubed chimes that you can ring. we ran from north station to charles/mgh red line stop, back down through government center and downtown crossing before finally making it back to the office.
i reheated my chow mein for lunch, but because it was a few days old and because i had to microwave it, the noodle was no longer crisp, no longer delicious. i ate enough to feed my hunger then threw away the rest.
after i came home from work, i drove to my parents' place in belmont for dinner. i returned to cambridge, where i went down to the basement and lit the pilot light in the furnace so i could turn on the heat. yes, finally, it's time, it's just way too cold in the house. i fell asleep watching television on the couch. i only woke up when mike came back home, going to my bedroom to finally get some rest.


Gallery House Concerts is challenging 10 local musicians to get back to the basics of song writing with the Acoustic Guitar Project.
For the project, each participant gets seven days with a guitar to compose an original song, sign the guitar, then pass it along to the next artist.
Founded in 2012 by Dave Adams, the project was created as a way to re-connect musicians with what inspired them to start writing music.
Gallery House Concerts curator Jackie Bourgaize believes the project is an excellent way for musicians to make emotive songs and forge connections with other artists.
To connect with their fellow artists, they each sign their name on the guitar before passing it along.
Although he only had seven days to write his song, Calgarian musician Brent Tyler said he didn't feel any pressure.
The Acoustic Guitar Project also gives local artists a chance to take a different approach to the way they create music and explore what it means to be a musician.
"It's a great opportunity to share with the musical community and be involved with something outside the realm of your own career," says Tyler.
The Acoustic Guitar Project ends with a concert where the 10 musicians come together and debut their songs.
The Project runs from May 1 until Aug. 5 with the final concert on Aug. 10 at the National Music Center.

Welcome Break Donation
Home General Welcome Break Donation
Thursday 5 January, 2023
We wish to congratulate the Welcome Break team for their amazing fundraising efforts and show our appreciation for their generous donation of £5,000 to Real Life Options for the second year in a row.
Our Chief Executive Officer David Sargent was delighted to visit Welcome Break at Sarn Park Services at Bridgend and gratefully receive the huge cheque. Whilst on his trip he outlined our intentions to put the money towards hosting a 'My Voice' mini conference.
The all-inclusive event will bring together people we support, their families and guardians and our operational teams to share their lived experiences. It will be a great platform to further enable the people we support to have their voices heard and will be invaluable in educating and shaping our person-centred approach. Key speakers will be invited to provide personal insights about the highs and lows, challenges, and the rewards of living with a loved one who has special needs. We look forward to inviting representatives from Welcome Break to the event to see first-hand the impact this money will have and why we feel an event of this nature is so important to our organisation and the impact that their money will have.
Extended thanks go to I-Tel Group for fostering the partnership between Real Life Options and Welcome Break as we continue to discuss further mutually beneficial opportunities. Work experience placements is an avenue that is currently being explored which could help raise confidence and provide a great sense of purpose for the people we support with learning disabilities and autism. We look forward to developing such initiatives and working together to develop the partnership further over 2023.

The robotics season in finally over! Or rather, the off-season is beginning. This was my last year as a student on the team, so it's bittersweet.
Our first district event was Wilsonville, which was a really great start for us. We were alliance captains and made it to quarterfinals. Our main issue at that event was reliability. Our robot CAN bus was soldered together, so when we figured out that a motor controller had failed before a match we had to cut the CAN, swap the motor controller out, twist the CAN wires back together, and cross our fingers. It ended up not working (to nobody's surprise). After that event, we prioritized reliability and serviceability for electronics. We used our 6 hours of RAP (robot access period) between competitions to completely rebuild the electronics. We went from a bundle of 22 AWG wires for our solenoids to a CAT6 cable, we used PWM crimps for our CAN bus, we put short cables with powerpole connectors in our WAGO connectors, and zip-tied all our powerpole connectors.
We had issues with our climber/ball intake gearboxes internally shearing, but we were still a first pick. We made it to quarters and got knocked out. After that event, we iterated on our climber. We went from 2 CIM motors with 80:1 CIM sport gearboxes to 2 NEO brushless motors with 30:1 CIM sport gearboxes and 4:1 chain reduction. We also joined the two sides of the climber together with a hex shaft so they would always turn in unison (rather than relying on programming). NEOs were lighter and smaller, and gave us more torque than CIMs. Using chains for the last stage of reduction put less strain on the gearboxes and provided an intentional point of failure compared to the gearboxes. We had the chain break once when we fell while climbing, which is better than the gearboxes breaking.
PNW District Championship (Tacoma, WA)
At district champs we did poorly, not because of any specific reason but because we had some poor luck with our randomly selected qualifiers, and because we weren't in the top hatch cyclers, or good at defense. Even though we didn't make it to finals at DCMP, we still got into worlds on lottery, rather than on merit. I had my qualms about going on lottery, especially because I would miss 2 days of work and it would cost a lot to go, but in the end decided to go since I didn't want to screw over the team as there weren't any other people that could drive the robot well, and I thought we still had a chance of doing well at worlds.
FIRST Championship (Houston, TX)
In Houston we did very well in qualifiers and ended up getting first picked by Plasma Robotics, which was totally unexpected. We made our way through playoffs completely undefeated until we went against a complete powerhouse alliance: the Cheesy Poofs and Blackhawk. The Cheesy Poofs were undeafeated last year, so we didn't really expect to win against them. We ended as Turing Division finalists, which was better than we ever expected to do.

(am), or any other location temporarily occupied by the petitioner or both, or to avoid contacting or causing any person other than a party's attorney or a law enforcement officer to contact the petitioner unless the petitioner consents in writing, to refrain from removing, hiding, damaging, harming, or mistreating, or disposing of, a household pet, to allow the petitioner or a family member or household member of the petitioner acting on his or her behalf to retrieve a household pet, or any combination of these remedies requested in the petition, or any other appropriate remedy not inconsistent with the remedies requested in the petition, if all of the following occur:
1. The petitioner submits to the judge or circuit court commissioner a petition alleging the elements set forth under sub. (5) (a).
2. The judge or circuit court commissioner finds reasonable grounds to believe that the respondent has engaged in, or based on prior conduct of the petitioner and the respondent may engage in, domestic abuse of the petitioner.
(aj) In determining whether to issue a temporary restraining order, the judge or circuit court commissioner shall consider the potential danger posed to the petitioner and the pattern of abusive conduct of the respondent but may not base his or her decision solely on the length of time since the last domestic abuse or the length of time since the relationship ended. The judge or circuit court commissioner may grant only the remedies requested or approved by the petitioner. The judge or circuit court commissioner may not dismiss or deny granting a temporary restraining order because of the existence of a pending action or of any other court order that bars contact between the parties, nor due to the necessity of verifying the terms of an existing court order.
(am) If the petitioner and the respondent are not married, the respondent owns the premises where the petitioner resides and the petitioner has no legal interest in the premises, in lieu of ordering the respondent to avoid the petitioner's residence under par. (a) the judge or circuit court commissioner may order the respondent to avoid the premises for a reasonable time until the petitioner relocates and shall order the respondent to avoid the new residence for the duration of the order.
(b) Notice need not be given to the respondent before issuing a temporary restraining order under this subsection. A temporary restraining order may be entered only against the respondent named in the petition.
(c) The temporary restraining order is in effect until a hearing is held on issuance of an injunction under sub. (4), except that the court may extend the temporary restraining order under s. 813.1285. The temporary restraining order is not voided if the respondent is admitted into a dwelling that the order directs him or her to avoid. A judge or circuit court commissioner shall hold a hearing on issuance of an injunction within 14 days after the temporary restraining order is issued, unless the time is extended upon the written consent of the parties, extended under s. 801.58 (2m), or extended once for 14 days upon a finding that the respondent has not been served with a copy of the temporary restraining order although the petitioner has exercised due diligence. A judge or court commissioner may not extend the temporary restraining order in lieu of ruling on the issuance of an injunction.
(d) The judge or circuit court commissioner shall advise the petitioner of the right to serve the respondent the petition by published notice if with due diligence the respondent cannot be served as provided under s. 801.11 (1) (a) or (b). The clerk of circuit court shall assist the petitioner with the preparation of the notice and filing of the affidavit of printing.
(4) Injunction.
(a) A judge or circuit court commissioner may grant an injunction ordering the respondent to refrain from committing acts of domestic abuse against the petitioner, to avoid the petitioner's residence, except as provided in par. (am), or any other location temporarily occupied by the petitioner or both, or to avoid contacting or causing any person other than a party's attorney or a law enforcement officer to contact the petitioner unless the petitioner consents to that contact in writing, to refrain from removing, hiding, damaging, harming, or mistreating, or disposing of, a household pet, to allow the petitioner or a family member or household member of the petitioner acting on his or her behalf to retrieve a household pet, or any combination of these remedies requested in the petition, or any other appropriate remedy not inconsistent with the remedies requested in the petition, if all of the following occur:
1. The petitioner files a petition alleging the elements set forth under sub. (5) (a).
2. The petitioner serves upon the respondent a copy or summary of the petition and notice of the time for hearing on the issuance of the injunction, or the respondent serves upon the petitioner notice of the time for hearing on the issuance of the injunction.
3. After hearing, the judge or circuit court commissioner finds reasonable grounds to believe that the respondent has engaged in, or based upon prior conduct of the petitioner and the respondent may engage in, domestic abuse of the petitioner.
(aj) In determining whether to issue an injunction, the judge or circuit court commissioner shall consider the potential danger posed to the petitioner and the pattern of abusive conduct of the respondent but may not base his or her decision solely on the length of time since the last domestic abuse or the length of time since the relationship ended. The judge or circuit court commissioner may grant only the remedies requested by the petitioner. The judge or circuit court commissioner may not dismiss or deny granting an injunction because of the existence of a pending action or of any other court order that bars contact between the parties, nor due to the necessity of verifying the terms of an existing court order.
(b) The judge or circuit court commissioner may enter an injunction only against the respondent named in the petition. No injunction may be issued under this subsection under the same case number against the person petitioning for the injunction. The judge or circuit court commissioner may not modify an order restraining the respondent based solely on the request of the respondent.

1. A judge or circuit court commissioner may, upon issuing an injunction or granting an extension of an injunction issued under this subsection, order that the injunction is in effect for not more than 10 years, if the court finds, by a preponderance of the evidence stated on the record, that any of the following is true:
a. There is a substantial risk that the respondent may commit first-degree intentional homicide under s. 940.01, or 2nd-degree intentional homicide under s. 940.05, against the petitioner.
b. There is a substantial risk that the respondent may commit sexual assault under s. 940.225 (1), (2), or (3), or under s. 948.02 (1) or (2), against the petitioner.
1m. Upon request by the petitioner, a judge or circuit court commissioner may order that the injunction is in effect permanently if the respondent has been convicted of a violation of s. 940.225 (1) to (3) in which the petitioner was the crime victim. An order based on a finding under this subdivision is subject to review and modification under s. 813.126 (1m).

1. The account holder named in the order has terminated the account.
2. A difference in network technology would prevent or impair the functionality of a device on a network if the transfer occurs.
3. The transfer would cause a geographic or other limitation on network or service provision to the petitioner.
4. Another technological or operational issue would prevent or impair the use of the telephone number if the transfer occurs.
(c) The petitioner assumes all financial responsibility for and right to the use of any telephone number transferred under this subsection. In this paragraph, "financial responsibility" includes monthly service costs and costs associated with any mobile device associated with the number.
(d) A wireless telephone service provider may apply to the petitioner its routine and customary requirements for establishing an account or transferring a number, including requiring the petitioner to provide proof of identification, financial information, and customer preferences.

Sale were left to regret missed kicks as Leicester won 19-15 in a sorry affair at Welford Road.
Marland Yarde opened the scoring with a simple try in the opening stages, but his five-pointer was cancelled out only minutes later when Kyle Eastmond flew over.
Eastmond's try was as good as it got for Leicester in attack, who relied on the boot of George Ford for their second Premiership win of the season.
After defeat to Wasps last week, Steve Diamond rued his side's inaccuracies in attack, and Sale's experienced Director of Rugby would've been disappointed that the same errors were still plaguing his side's game.
Sale made seven handling errors in the first half, and were lacking the direction that the injured AJ MacGinty usually provides from fly-half.
Sam James – deputising at outside-half in MacGinty's absence – wasn't able to gain any control on the game, in stark contrast to George Ford's metronomic accuracy in creating opportunities for his backs.
Leicester's defence had been porous in the opening four rounds, conceding an average of 39.5 points per game, but Sale's ineffective attack barely looked like threatening them all game.
Whenever the Sharks ventured into Leicester's 22, they were lateral, futile and painfully slow, and the spotlight on Tigers' defence grew darker and darker.
Dorian West was announced as Sale's new Forwards coach in the week, and on this evidence it looks as if the former Northampton Saint has a lot of work to do. Sale only successfully completed 72% of their line-outs, while the forward pack looked worryingly inefficacious in open play.
Though their inaccuracy was disappointing, Sale's forwards were a difficult proposition from the driving maul, scoring two of their three tries through this tactic.
In truth, this affair was difficult to watch; it was littered by errors from both teams, who both looked short of quality throughout.
For a Leicester side who last season were competing for a top-four place, today's performance shows Tigers' marked switch from title contenders to Premiership strugglers.
Despite Jono Ross' insistence in the week that it's too early to think about relegation, the nightmare surely must be taken seriously as Sale now lie bottom of the table after five games, with Worcester and Bristol both showing lots of promise in the opening rounds.

Role of ICT in Enhancing Scale, Quality, and Reach of TVET in India

Reference work entry
India's skill requirement calls for millions of individuals to be formally trained and qualified for employment. What underlies an acknowledged dearth of skilled labor, impeding India from reaching its potential, are issues of quality, standardization, and accessibility to skill development, especially to and within existing vocational training programs. The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) reiterated the urgent need for improved inclusion in skill development among socially and economically vulnerable groups to strengthen the prospect of decent employment and income generation, as indicated in the sub-goal of SDG 4 on quality education. Skill development practitioners and academicians recognize information communication and technology (ICT) as a critical component in addressing issues of inclusivity, quality, and standardized skill development. Discussion of ICT-integrated TVET primarily takes place in the context of formal training; however, a significant portion of skill development in India takes place along the lifelong learning continuum, outside of the formal context. This chapter, therefore, takes a wider perspective to review how ICT is reforming TVET delivery practices in India across formal, nonformal, and open and distance learning settings.

A Pair of Thieves socks and underwear review found that the brand offers socks in no show, low-cut, crew, ankle, dad & kids, and multi-packs. We'll go through some of the most popular sock types:
Pair of Thieves No Show Socks
Pair of Thieves has a wide variety of no-show socks. The average pair is $10, but there are a couple of less popular pairs currently on sale for $5. Pair of Thieves no show socks are easily made invisible with certain shoes, but also have a non-slip quality to them so that they don't slip off your feet as you're walking.
The Men's Prism Cushion No Show Socks pictured below have an interesting earthy color scheme. They're subtle, yet they can offer a splash of color while going shoeless.These socks are made from combed cotton, polyester, and nylon. It's cushiony feel allows for comfort when you're on your feet all day.
View no Show Socks
Pair of Thieves Low-Cut Socks
The brand has a wide variety of low-cut socks as well. Similar to the no-show socks, the average pair is $10 but there are some pairs currently on sale for $5. Also made from combed cotton, polyester, and nylon— Pair of Thieves low-cut socks are perfect for matching any outfit.
The Whoa in White Women's Cushion Low-Cut Socks are a fun design, currently on sale for $5. With a cushioned heel and toe, they would make any day a comfortable day. The contrast of the busy polka dot design along with the light blue heel and toe really works for them. These socks are classy and snazzy, all the while feeling extremely comfy with a 4-way stretch and extremely breathable fit.
Pair of Thieves Crew Socks
Pair of Thieves crew socks usually have a starting price of between $10-$14, but some are currently on sale for as low as $7.50! Pair of Thieves socks definitely have the most designs in this category of socks and the majority of them are not suitable for subtle or plain looks. But with crew socks, they are meant to display themselves on your calves. So why not make them interesting?
Although they have a select few basic crew sock designs, I find myself more intrigued by the vibrant, unique, and fun designs. With so much variety and such a strong difference between every crew sock designs, your socks definitely won't be mistaken for anyone's but your own.
While writing this Pair of Thieves socks and underwear review, these Disney Aladdin-inspired Give Me Some Tassel crew socks got my attention. Aladdin fan or not, these socks are super trendy and unique, perfect for a bold addition to any outfit. I mean, how many socks have tassels on them?
Just like most of Pair of Thieves socks, these are made from combed cotton, nylon, and polyester while providing a comfy, stretchy fit! Currently on sale for $10.50, these funky socks are a must-have for anyone looking to spice up their wardrobe.

Pair of Thieves Blackout/Whiteout Socks
Pair of Thieves has a special line of both men and women's socks that aims to help those in need. When purchased in a pack of either blackout or whiteout socks, they donate three pairs to charity. How awesome is that? You get more socks, and help the less-fortunate at the same time!It's a win-win for everyone.
Sadly, only plain black and white socks are eligible. But the cause behind it makes it worth buying. Everyone needs a pair of black or white socks for certain occasions. With multiple sock types available in the Pair of Thieves Blackout/Whiteout line, packs range from $20-$80. With a minimum of three pairs and a maximum of 9 pairs included.
The Blackout Striped Ankle Socks have a cool athletic vibe. Also available in reverse colours, this pack of three socks are on sale for a reasonable price of $20. I think the white stripes at the top create such a vivid contrast within the socks that give the socks a hint of style and make them slightly less plain.
Like most Pair of Thieves socks, these are made of combed cotton, polyester, and nylon and have a comfy fit with a 4-way stretch. In terms of fit, they are described as being somewhere in between no-show socks and crew socks. Not too short and not too long, and three pairs of socks will be donated if purchased.

Also made with non-chafing seams, these Pair of Thieves boxer briefs are stretchy and suitable for being active. I chose to feature the above design in this Pair of Thieves socks and underwear review because it proves that athletic clothing doesn't just need to have the moisture-absorbing material — it also should to be stylish.
Many athletes have to choose function over fashion when it comes to buying activewear. But with Pair of Thieves boxer briefs, you can have the best of both worlds for $22.
The brand offers underwear for women in thong, hipster, bikini, and boy short styles. A Pair of Thieves socks and underwear review found some top sellers available for women:
The Mega Soft thong has a sexy and simple design, available in the blue leaf Happy Mondays pattern pictured above and Solid Aegean, featuring the same attractive ocean blue. These are the only thongs offered by Pair of Thieves, priced at $10 and currently on sale for $8. This is a very reasonable price for women's underwear, which can get quite steep.
This thong is invisible under dresses and workout tights, so you never have to be self-conscious about underwear lines. The Mega Soft thong features no-chafe seams and four-way stretch, so it hugs without squeezing. The Mega Soft thong contains a comfortable cotton and modal blend. The fabric is naturally airy and breathable.
Cool Breeze Hipster
The Cool Breeze is one of two styles available in the Hipster category, priced at $10 and on sale for $8. They offer moderate coverage in the back, while still being a little cheeky. The Cool Breeze features four-way stretch and no chafe seams. Paired with their breathable cotton fabric, these undies are built for comfort.
A benefit of the Cool Breeze Hipster is their moisture-wicking capabilities. They're designed to keep you dry by absorbing moisture, so these would be a good option for sweaty workouts. Colors are limited to black and charcoal, so if you're into more creative underwear designs, these might not be for you.

Biting the Bullet: The Archaeology of 'Musketballs'
By Rubicon Heritage on December 16, 2011 in Post Medieval Archaeology, Rubicon Heritage
The 'musketball' was for many decades one of the most neglected of archaeological finds. They often went virtually unanalysed, tucked away at the back of a finds report and warranting only a fleeting mention. However, the growth of battlefield and conflict archaeology has led to a wave of new research that is rapidly changing our view of these little objects, and what they can tell us about momentous events in the past.
A hoard of 2,701 lead bullets illegally metal detected at Ballymore, Co. Westmeath. Probably concealed by Jacobites prior to their surrender to Williamite forces here in 1691. Now on display in the National Museum of Ireland 'Soldiers & Chiefs' Exhibition
Many 'musketballs' are not actually from muskets at all. The musket was in fact just one of a range of guns that fired a lead bullet. Different firearms used bullets of different sizes and weight, and often different types of gun were carried by different troop types. For example, in the late 17th century infantry usually carried heavy muskets, while mounted infantry called dragoons wielded carbines, which fired a slightly smaller ball. Cavalry and officers often employed the much smaller pistol as their firearm. It is often the case that analysis of bullet types can tell us about the range of different soldiers present at a particular site.
One of the most important aspects of lead bullet analysis is knowing where the ball has come from. If the exact findspot of each bullet is not carefully recorded archaeologically, a valuable piece of information is destroyed. The location of bullets on a battlefield provides us with a unique plan of how a fight progressed; it can reveal who fought where, what type of soldiers they were, and where the fighting was hardest. Often this information can completely re-write previous interpretations which were based solely on historical accounts. If the lead bullets are removed from their context without proper recording all this information is lost.
Lead shot recovered from the Battlefield of Aughrim, Co. Galway, and representing an attack on fleeing Jacobite soldiers
Above are some lead bullets we analysed for the National Roads Authority on behalf of Galway County Council. They were fired during the Battle of Aughrim, Co. Galway, in 1691, the bloodiest battle in Irish history. The size and weight of the bullets suggest that a mix of infantry and dragoons/cavalry fought here. Because we knew the exact findspot of each bullet we could see a pattern emerge, suggesting that this was evidence for a rout that we knew took place. When the Jacobite army broke, they attempted to flee to a nearby bog to escape rampaging Williamite cavalry. This small assemblage is surviving evidence of this desperate attempt to escape the slaughter.
The Siege and Battle of Kinsale, 1601. The Lord Deputy's Camp is in the centre left of the image (Pacata Hibernia, 1633)
We are also now getting better at recognising when lead bullets have been fired, and sometimes what they have hit. As well as this bullets can provide us with information about how and when they were made. The Kinsale Battlefield Project carried out a series of surveys on the site of the English camps in Kinsale, Co. Cork, where the siege and battle of Kinsale was fought in 1601 between the English and the Spanish/Gaelic Irish. The photo below is of lead shot we found at the Lord Deputy's main Siege Camp. The terrible conditions during the siege that winter made the camps a sea of mud, an environment in which soldiers succumbed to cold and disease at a frightening rate 'dying by dozens on a heap' as one contemporary chronicler related. Analysis indicated that these bullets were made on site by these men. The bullets had not been fired, and some of them showed defects in the manufacturing process, possibly a result of the weather. This suggested to us that the soldiers were making bullets themselves around their campfires, and that these bullets were dropped in the mud and never recovered. Their presence indicates that a significant archaeological siege landscape survives in this part of Kinsale.
Lead shot from the 1601 English Lord Deputy's Siege Camp at Kinsale, Co. Cork. The bullets have not formed properly in the mould, possibly a result of adverse weather conditions during manufacture
Another site Rubicon excavated was at Castledonovan Castle, in West Cork. This work was carried out on behalf of the Department of the Environment, Heritage & Local Government. In 1650 this castle was attacked by Parliamentarian troops. The historical details of the assault are sketchy, but an assemblage of 28 lead shot from a destruction layer excavated within the castle provides us with some clues as to events. It is clear that a small number of the bullets were fired, indicating that there may have been some minor skirmishing. Many of the unfired bullets were from the same type of gun, in this case a musket. It is probable that some of the bullets were made in the same mould. The location of these bullets in a burnt layer together with the sparse evidence for fired shot suggests the castle capitulated quickly before it's destruction. The defenders ammunition was left in place after the garrison had either fled or surrendered.
Castledonovan Castle, Co. Cork, attacked by Parliamentarian forces in 1650
Sites such as these illustrate the value of lead bullet analysis. These little objects reveal information about moments in time that were extremely violent and traumatic for those involved. They were often deposited over just a few minutes or hours, in many cases as part of a famous historic event that we remain aware of today. There remains something distinctly personal about these objects. Each was designed to kill or maim, and many that we recover did just that. Many were last held by an individual who was in all probability experiencing extreme stress as they participated in deadly conflict. These bullets are objects that deserve our respect; their analysis can unlock details of our violent past that bring us closer to understanding the experience of our ancestors, and allows us to reveal events which were often the defining moment of their lives.
