In Western Europe and the Americas, abolitionism was a historic movement that sought to end the Atlantic slave trade and liberate the enslaved people. The British abolitionist movement started in the late 18th century when English and American Quakers began to question the morality of slavery. James Oglethorpe was among the first to articulate the Enlightenment case against slavery, banning it in the Province of Georgia on humanitarian grounds, and arguing against it in Parliament, and eventually encouraging his friends Granville Sharp and Hannah More to vigorously pursue the cause. Soon after Oglethorpe's death in 1785, Sharp and More united with William Wilberforce and others in forming the Clapham Sect. The Somersett case in 1772, in which a fugitive slave was freed with the judgement that slavery did not exist under English common law, helped launch the British movement to abolish slav ... <a href="/html/ALL/s/A/Abolitionism.html" style="text-decoration:none;"> <br>[...More Info...] &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp <a href="/html/ALL/l/A/Abolitionism.html" style="text-decoration:none;"> [...Related Items...] &nbsp &nbsp <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abolitionism" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"><b> OR:</b> &nbsp &nbsp [Wikipedia] &nbsp </a> <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=Abolitionism" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Google] &nbsp </a>    <a href="https://www.baidu.com/s?wd=Abolitionism" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Baidu] &nbsp </a>  </div> <br></a></a> <br> </div> </td> </tr> <tr; > <td width="15%"><p> <a href="/html/ALL/s/G/Gazeta_De_Notícias.html" title="Click for more on -> Gazeta De Notícias"> </p> </td> <td valign="top"; width="75%"; > <div style="margin-left:0%; margin-right:9%";>  <div style="margin-left:2%";> <big><big><b><a href="/html/ALL/s/G/Gazeta_De_Notícias.html" style="text-decoration:none;">Gazeta De Notícias</a></b></big></big><br> Gazeta may refer to: in Albania-language newspapers, *Gazeta 55, daily newspaper *Gazeta Rilindja Demokratike, daily newspaper *Gazeta Shqip, daily newspaper in Polish-language newspapers, * Gazetagazeta.com, a Polish-language daily newspaper, published in Toronto * Gazeta Olsztyńska, a Polish-language newspaper, published 1886–1939 in Prussia * Gazeta Polska, a Polish weekly * Gazeta Polska (1929–1939), a newspaper of interwar Poland, published from 1929 to 1939 in Warsaw * Gazeta Warszawska, the first newspaper published regularly in Warsaw * Gazeta Wyborcza, a Polish newspaper in Russian-language newspapers, * Gazeta.ru, a Russian newspaper * Literaturnaya Gazeta, a weekly cultural and political newspaper published in Russia * Nezavisimaya Gazeta, a Russian-language daily newspaper * Novaya Gazeta, a Russian newspaper * Roman-Gazeta, a literary monthly in the Soviet Union * Rossiyskaya Gazeta, a Russian government daily newspaper in other newspapers, * A Gazeta ... <a href="/html/ALL/s/G/Gazeta_De_Notícias.html" style="text-decoration:none;"> <br>[...More Info...] &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp <a href="/html/ALL/l/G/Gazeta_De_Notícias.html" style="text-decoration:none;"> [...Related Items...] &nbsp &nbsp <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gazeta_De_Notícias" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"><b> OR:</b> &nbsp &nbsp [Wikipedia] &nbsp </a> <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=Gazeta_De_Notícias" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Google] &nbsp </a>    <a href="https://www.baidu.com/s?wd=Gazeta_De_Notícias" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none;"> [Baidu] &nbsp </a>  </div> <br></a></a> <br> </div> </td> </tr> <tr; > <td width="15%"><p> <a href="/html/ALL/s/C/Contributing_Editor.html" title="Click for more on -> Contributing Editor"> <center><img src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e5/CBC_journalists_in_Montreal.jpg" title="Click for more on -> Contributing Editor" width="100%;" height="auto;"><center></a> <a href = "https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:CBC_journalists_in_Montreal.jpg" target=_blank style="text-decoration:none; color:#d0d0d0;">picture info</a> </p> </td> <td valign="top"; width="75%"; > <div style="margin-left:0%; margin-right:9%";>  <div style="margin-left:2%";> <big><big><b><a href="/html/ALL/s/C/Contributing_Editor.html" style="text-decoration:none;">Contributing Editor</a></b></big></big><br> A contributing editor is a newspaper, magazine or online job title that varies in its responsibilities.

He was the son of Portuguese diplomats José Maria dos Reis Lopes Trovão and Maria Jacinta Lopes Trovão. He supported the Republican Manifesto of 1870 and was a noted orator, speaking out against the monarchy and slavery. Lopes Trovão served in the chamber of deputies between 1891 and 1895. He was a senator from 1895 to 1902. He worked on a design for the Brazilian flag which was first presented in November 1889. It was adopted for four days and became known as the Provisional Flag of the Republic. Ultimately it was rejected as too similar to the U.S. flag upon which it was based. In his later years, Trovao served on the executive boards of several newspapers. He died in Rio de Janeiro in 1925. A school was named after him in 1908.

In the traditional Scottish order of precedence, a laird ranked below a baron and above a gentleman. This rank was held only by those lairds holding official recognition in a territorial designation by the Lord Lyon King of Arms. They are usually styled 'name'' 'surname''of 'lairdship'' However, since "laird" is a courtesy title, it has no formal status in law. Historically, the term bonnet laird was applied to rural, petty landowners, as they wore a bonnet like the non-landowning classes. Bonnet lairds filled a position in society below lairds and above husbandmen (farmers), similar to the yeomen of England. An Internet fad is the selling of tiny souvenir plots of Scottish land and a claim of a "laird" title to go along with it, but the Lord Lyon has decreed these meaningless for several reasons.
