    Emmy the chambermaid stole the necklace because she was jealous. First of all, the glass from the broken window in the door is scattered outside the room. This shows that the job was clearly done from someone on the inside. It’s important to notice this because it rules out the neighbor as the criminal. For if it was Honore’ Schmidt--coming into the hotel room from the balcony--the glass would have to be inside the room from him punching the glass in. That leaves only Emmy and Mrs. Van Bliven herself. So the second reason is that the chambermaid has a more realistic reason to have stolen the necklace. And that is jealousy of Mrs. Van Bliven’s wealth. From what can be acquired from the description of the woman and the crime scene itself, it is no secret that Horatio Van Bliven is a rich lady.

    In the summer of 1790, twenty-seven chiefs from the major tribes of the creek nation marched into New York City with one main purpose: to negotiate a peace treaty that would grant the Creek Nation the land they inherently deserved and to end the bloody war on the Southwestern Frontier. Seemingly leading the chiefs to New York City was the Native American version of George Washington, and his name was Alexander McGillivray. The McGillivray Moment was a point in time that we know very little about, for the official negotiations between the Creek Chiefs and our then loose federal government was oddly never recorded, so we can only speculate the topics they covered and their reactions to them by reviewing their final documents and papers. By…

    The person I chose to do my report on is Charles Richard Drew. I chose Charles Drew because he was a black doctor that worked with transfusing blood.

I also know that blood transfusions are very important for people that have Sickle Cell because their blood gets infected and has to be replaced. I think that a black male doctor that worked with blood research is interesting. I do not know a lot of black doctor’s so to research someone that specialized in this area is why I decided to research Charles Drew.…
