Joachim Simon Lucet est l’auteur de : Langue Française, simples notes grammaticales par le moyen desquelles ont peut repasser en quelques heures seulement tous les principes et les plus grandes difficultés de la langue française. – par J. S. LUCET, Aîné, Professeur de Langue Française, de Belles-Lettres, et d’Élocution, London, 1843.
 Ce livre contient l’avant-propos suivant :
« Un accident bien funeste, d’une part, et un vol de confiance, de l’autre, ayant ravi à l’auteur deux parties des plus importantes de sont grand ouvrage sur la Langue Française et la Littérature, il a été forcé de suspendre la publication de celui-ci, qui sans cela, aurait paru depuis deux ans. Il s’occupe activement à réparer ces deux malheurs, qui l’ont tant affligé, et il espère pouvoir satisfaire bientôt aux nombreuses demandes que lui adressent, chaque jour, à cet égard, ses Elèves et ses autres Souscripteurs. En attendant, pour épargner à ces premiers, le temps et la peine d’écrire ces simples notes, dont ils se servent journellement, il s’est empressé, à la requête de beaucoup d’entre eux, de les faire imprimer. » — 30 Foley Place, Portland Place, le 10 Octobre 1843.

JOHN TERWILLIGER was born on February 24,1827, in Albany, eldest son of George and Nancy (Coughtry) Terwilliger, both natives of that, as was also his paternal grandfather, Simon Terwilliger, who served as a teamster in the Revolutionary War. While Albany County was the home of the veteran during the greater part of his life, he died, at the age of seventy-nine years, in Onondaga County. His wife, whose maiden name was Jane Coon, died when she was seventy-five years old, having reared eight children. George Terwilliger was a carpenter, and also a farmer. He moved in 1834 to the town of Cicero, Onondaga County, where he bought a farm, on which he lived for forty years. He died in Madison County at the age of eighty-six years, his wife at the age of sixty- five. Eight children had been born to them, six sons and two daughters, of whom five are now living: John, the subject of the present sketch, a resident of Sullivan; Elizabeth (Mrs. George Town) and Jane (Mrs. John Edgerton), residing in Michigan; James, who died in the late war at Andersonville Prison in 1864; Henry, who died in 1869, leaving a wife and one child; William, living in Indiana; Richard, who died in the service during the Civil War; Stanley, residing at Manlius Station, Onondaga County. The father was a Republican in politics, and the family were Presbyterian in religion.
 John Terwilliger left Albany County when he was about seven years of age, moving with his father to Onondaga County. In this sparsely settled section of the country the district school was a log cabin, with its puncheon floor and rough benches--a striking contrast to the elegant buildings which are now erected for the youthful scholar. He had to trudge many miles to acquire the simple rudiments of learning, and marvellous were the adventures of the urchins who were "treed by a bear" or scared by an Indian as they journeyed through the woods. Simple and frugal were the manners and customs of those days. The mother was cook, nurse, weaver, and tailor for the family; and our subject was eighteen years of age before ever he wore a suit of "store clothes." When he was twenty-five years of age, he started out to work for himself; and, as salt-making was the principal industry of Onondaga, he became a cooper, and was a long while employed in the making of salt-barrels.
 The first piece of land bought by him was a tract of twenty-five acres in the town of Cicero, which he sold shortly afterward, and in 1866 purchased the farm of one hundred and forty acres which he now owns and occupies. He has increased this to one hundred and sixty-five acres, on which he raises wheat, oats, corn, and hay. He gives a great deal of attention to stock-raising, and in his dairy work, prefers Holstein cattle. Mr. Terwilliger’s buildings stand on the spot mentioned in Mrs. Hammond’s “History of Madison County” as the site of the palisade enclosure where in 1780 a band of Tories and Indians who had come from Canada on a marauding expedition left a guard to protect their boats filled with stores, which they had moored in the creek near by, while they went on, and, under command of Johnson, Butler and Brant, burned Schoharie. Captain Vrooman, acting under the orders of General Van Rensselaer, hastening to this old fort with a small body of men, captured the guards and sank the boats, but was himself, with his prisoners, surprised and taken by a detachment of Butler’s rangers, and marched off to Canada.
 The marriage of John Terwilliger and Miss Margaret Morrison took place in 1853. She was born in the town of Cicero, Onondaga, N.Y., January 29, 1836. Her parents, Archibald and Sarah (Conway) Morrison, are natives of Washington, the father having been born in 1811 and the mother in 1817. Their only child is Mrs. Terwilliger. Mr. Morrison is a carpenter, and has always followed the trade. He is an ardent Republican, and has never missed an election.
 Mr. and Mrs. Terwilliger have two children. Sarah, who resides at home, was born in 1858. Arthur, born in 1854, is married, and with his wife and only son, named John Howard, resides on a part of the home farm.
 Mr. Terwilliger is a strong Republican in his political ideas, and unflinchingly supports his party in every election campaign. He has been Commissioner of Highways and Collector in the town of Manlius, and is a stirring, active worker in the district. In the Masonic Order he is a member of Sullivan Lodge, No. 148, F. & A. M. He is a prominent and deservedly esteemed citizen of his county. By reason of his many years in this region he is fully conversant with its history, and, having keen observation and a fine memory, is a delightful mine of information to those wishing to learn of the days that are gone. He and his wife, in their upright and Christian lives, are a beautiful example to the generation around them; and the earnest wish of their fellow-citizens is that they may be spared long in the land. (Source: The Leading Citizens of Madison County, March 1894)

John Wentworth Clawson (1881-1964) was born in St. John, New Brunswick. He took his bachelors and masters degrees from New Brunswick College in 1901 and 1905. In between he studied at Cambridge University in England. Clawson came to the department of mathematics and physics at Ursinus College in 1907. He taught at Ursinus and lived in Collegeville the rest of his life, spending the years 1947-1952 as dean of the college. Clawson was a charter member of the MAA in 1916 and was elected chairman of the Philadelphia Section in 1935. Earlier he served two one-year stints on the Program Committee (now the Executive Committee) of the section, in 1930 and 1933. Clawson retired as emeritus professor in 1952 at age 70. He was an inveterate problem solver, beginning with his published solution to a problem in the January 1909 issue of the Monthly, ending with the solution to an Advanced Problem in the June/July 1957 issue, and including solutions to over 50 other problems in between. J W. Clawson died in 1964 after having been an MAA member for 48 years.

J. W. Clawson was probably the first to publish a description of an object in triangle geometry now known as the Clawson point. Born in St. John’s, New Brunswisk, Canada, Clawson received the A.B. degree in 1901 from the University of New Brunswick. In 1905, he received the A.M. degree from Cambridge University. From 1907 until his retirement in 1952, Clawson was Professor of Mathematics and Physics at Ursinus College in Collegeville, Pennsylvania. During the last six of these years, he was Dean of the College.

Clawson published a book of 63 pages: Geometry of Three Dimensions (Edwards Brothers, Ann Arbor, Michigan, 1938) and several journal articles:

Annals of Mathematics:
20 (1919) 232-261 The complete quadrilateral
23 (1921) 40-44 More theorems on the complete quadrilateral

American Mathematical Monthly:
24 (1917) 71- An inversion of the complete quadrilateral
26 (1919) 63- A theorem in the geometry of the triangle
32 (1925) 169- Points on the circumcircle
61 (1954) 161- A chain of circles associated with the 5-line
63 (1956) 306- A chain of circles associated with the n-line
65 (1958) 32- An n-line property

The Clawson point originates in one of Clawson’s problem proposals in the American Mathematical Monthly: no. 3132, submitted in 1925, and solved in v. 33 (1926), page 285. (Source : Faculty Evansville.)

 When John came to Ursinus in the Fall of 1928 he had two things he had to “live down” — he was a local boy and also the son of one of the professors. Because of perseverance, hard work and ability to get along with nearly everyone, John has succeeded in overcoming any obstacles which may have been in his path, and is today one of the most active and best liked members of our class.
 John is a keen-minded, level-headed chap with efficient executive ability as was demonstrated in his fine work in connection with the 1929 "Y" Handbook and in directing the financial policy of the 1932 Ruby.
 Whenever you are looking for John it is an almost sure bet that he may be found down at the "Tim and Ken’s" Garage. He spends a great deal of his leisure time at this place where he has led may "seminars" on topics of the day. We feel sure that John’s genial smile and his ability to get along with the fellow man are going to be treasured asses in his life after college.
