   Extractions: OLIPHANT. Laurence, author of "Piccadilly" OLIPHANT, Laurence (1829�88) author of, "Piccadilly", only child of (Sir) Anthony Oliphant (1793 - 1859) by his wife Maria, daughter of Colonel Campbell of the 72nd Highlanders, was born at Capetown in 1829. Thomas Oliphant, the musician was his uncle. His father who was third son of Ebenezer Olphant, of Condie and Newton, Perthshire, by Mary daughter of Sir William Stirling of Ardoch, had been called to the bar at Lincoln�s Inn in 1821, and practised for a time in London as an equity draughtsman, but just before his son�s birth he was appointed Attorney-General at the Cape. Laurence�s father and mother were both fervent evangelicals. The mother returned to Europe on account of her health and took her son with her. He was sent to the school of a Mr. Parr at Durnford Manon, Salisbury. He spent part of his holidays with his mother at Condie, an ancestral home of the Oliphant family. His father was in 1830 made Chief of Ceylon and was knighted. Lady Oliphant rejoined him in Ceylon in 1841. Laurence was sent out in the winter of the same year in charge of a private tutor who continued to teach him in Ceylon: but his education was much interrupted. His father returned on two years leave about 1846, and spent the time in a continental tour. Laurence was allowed to accompany his parents instead of going to Cambridge as had been intended. The family spent the winter of 1846-7 at Paris, travelled through Germany and the Tyrol during 1847, and at the end of the year crossed the Alps to Italy. Here young Oliphant was present at some of the popular disturbances at the beginning of 1848.

Dec. 23, 1888, Twickenham, Middlesex, Eng.), British author, traveller, and mystic, a controversial figure whose quest to establish a Jewish state in Palestine"fulfilling prophecy and bringing on the end of the world"won wide support among both Jewish and Christian officials but was thought by some to be motivated either by commercial interests or by a desire to strengthen Britain's position in the Near East. The son of a British official who travelled widely throughout the empire, Oliphant received a desultory education; he was called to the bar but soon gave up the law for a life of adventure. Before the age of 24 his travels had provided material for two books, a Journey to Khatmandu (1852) and The Russian Shores of the Black Sea in the Autumn of 1852, with a Voyage Down the Volga, and a Tour Through the Country of the Don Cossacks (1853). Later experiences in various parts of the world, as secretary to the diplomat James Bruce, earl of Elgin, as war correspondent of The Times

    Extractions: Reference Desk Encyclopedia Harris, Thomas Lake, , American Christian mystic. Born in England, he was brought to the United States as a child. In 1845 he was called to the pulpit of the Fourth Universalist Society, in New York City, but three years later, deeply impressed by spiritualism, Harris organized the First Independent Christian Society. During that period he dictated long poems for which he said he had received inspiration while in trances. He wove the ideas of Swedenborgianism into his religious teachings. Under his leadership the Brotherhood of the New Life, to which adherents had been drawn in Great Britain as well as the United States, established (1861) a community in Wassaic, N.Y., later moving it (1863) to nearby Amenia and (1867) to Brocton, near Buffalo, where it was known as Salem-on-Erie. In that year Laurence Oliphant joined this communal religious settlement. Harris and part of the community moved to Santa Rosa, Calif., in 1875; Oliphant remained behind and in 1881 broke completely with Harris. Ten years later Harris left the Santa Rosa community.
