McGill-Ingenium Fellowship: Part One - A Historian & Her Archives

Ingenium – Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation

“Excuse me, sir”, I asked, trying to get the attention of the staff member at the Maharashtra State Archives, a public archive located in the heart of South Bombay. I had just spent several moments pacing up and down the dark corridors stacked with piles and piles of cloth-bound files and was making no headway in my search. I continued despite the silence in response, “Could you please direct me to the section with the Times of India newspapers from the 1930s onwards?” I waited in anticipation.

Adieu-siatz, my reading friend, hello and welcome to this second part of our article devoted to the electoral setbacks of Charles Toussaint “Jules” Védrines during the partial legislative election of Limoux, France, in March 1912. You will remember that we parted ways on 16 March, the day before the ballot. Let us resume without further delay the weft of our history. 17 March – voting day. Védrines flew over the villages surrounding Limoux and visited friends in an automobile. While Védrines

And you already have a question, my reading friend? That was fast, not that I mind of course. If I may paraphrase the inveterate British inventor Wallace, ooh, but yours truly does like a bit of pontification. In what way and why was senator Henri Charles Étienne Dujardin-Beaumetz gently messing with Charles Toussaint “Jules” Védrines, the defeated candidate in the Limoux, France, by-election of March 1912? Well, that is a long story and you should know by now how yours truly loves long and

Would I be correct in assuming that you have owned, currently own or hope to own an automobile, my reading friend? If so, you are not alone. If not, you are not alone either. The automobile is undoubtedly one of the most significant forms of transportation this world has ever seen. It is also one of the most environmentally damaging one, but let us not dwell. Yours truly would like to bring to your attention an automobile you have probably never heard of, namely the Lincoln Continental 1950X /

Good morning, my reading friend. Yours truly would like to commemorate, with you to the extent possible, the 60th anniversary of the acquisition, by the National Aviation Museum, today’s Canada Aviation and Space Museum, in Ottawa, Ontario, of an example of a type of aircraft which played a very important role in the history of Canadian aviation. Indeed, the Canuck had / has more Canadian aeronautical first under its, err, wings than any other type of flying machine: first aircraft to be truly

Greetings, my reading friend, and welcome to the wonderful world of agriculture and food. This issue of our blog / bulletin / thingee will touch upon, gently of course, the part of the history of a well-known British engineering firm which dealt with its production of farm tractors. Yours truly shall endeavour to be brief. And yes, the title of this issue of our blog / bulletin / thingee can be sung.

Hello there, my reading friend. Given the name of the breathtaking and world-famous Canada Aviation and Space Museum, in Ottawa, Ontario, it occurred to yours truly that a space rock would make a nice anchor for an issue of our blog / bulletin / thingee. Let us therefore begin this pontification by quoting, in translation, the caption of the photograph found in a February 1947 issue of the illustrated weekly Le Samedi, published in Montréal, Québec.
