1969rif. 180251969. Distributed by the Radical Student Union at UC Berkeley. Outcry! from Occupied Berkeley. Vol. 2. May 1969. Quadruple folded. This newsletter gives the chronology of the clash over People's Park that occurred on May 15 1969 which was precipitated by the University's desire to turn a lot near campus that it had razed and purchased into a sports arena. The University aggressively acquired this land and razed the buildings on it due to concerns about growing crime. However in the months that followed hippies and other people in the community started to repurpose the land which had fallen into disrepair to create a community space with functional gardens and leisure areas and thus People's Park was born. The Park was soon enclosed and patrolled by National Guardsmen until the tension reached a fever pitch on May 15 when an Alameda County Sheriff's Deputy fired upon a peaceful onlooker James Rector who later died from his wounds. This newsletter gives this history in greater details and calls upon people to rally to People's Park. It denounces capitalist property relations the Vietnam War and imperialism police brutality and sexism. On verso is a print of a fist emerging from a rose that has sundered the earth around it with the slogan "Let a thousand parks bloom." In very good condition. unknown

rif. 24508No place. 'Saturday 5 Mar 14 i.e. 1814. 1p 8vo. On laid paper with watermarked date 1811. In good condition lightly aged with stub from mount adhering. In a contemporary hand at head: '0 15' and at foot '5 Mar 14' and 'Margravin Anspach'. The letter reads: 'The Pye alluded to is Calld Paté de Peregeux & must be spelt so The other is – Je detruit Par ma presence - I destroy by my presence - indeed Sir you cannot Oblige me more than to be very minute in any thing that seems doubtfull - The Black Stone perhaps may suit the Pye being filld with Black Trufles – but there is a Place calld Peregeux in France from whence was sent to all Parts of the World those Pyes - Hopeing C. Jairman will not walk off with C – Barclay - I remain yours sin Elizabeth.' The letter certainly relates to the following passage in Lady Craven's 'Memoirs' regarding 'Lord Thurlow when Chancellor': 'I really believe he preferred tough English salt beef to a pate de Perigueux — and the London porter to the wine of Paris. He frequently remarked to me " Vous detruisez par votre presence" .'. From the nature of the letter it would appear to be a reply to a query made on preparing the manuscript by the publisher of the 'Memoirs' Henry Colburn of New Burlington Street. If that is the case the dating to '5 Mar 14' would appear to be incorrect as the 'Memoirs' were published in 1826. No place. 'Saturday | 5 Mar 14 [i.e. 1814] unknown
