George Harrision on Politics and Celebrities

[inspiteallthedanger]

I’ve been reading the Get Back book, and I thought it was interesting just to see the India chat transcript in the order:

Paul: Oh, I saw that film last night.

John: What?

Paul: Of us at the Maharishi's. I've got all the film of it.

John: Oh yeah.

Paul: And all sort of together… incredible.

John: I've got a couple of reels of it at home.

Paul: It's just got a great opening.

John: The helicopter one up in the sky.

Paul: Yeah. I noticed you taking it [i.e. the helicopter], so I thought, I'll get that.

John: Well, that was the idea, you know, 'cos you said you were going to film it.

Paul: But it is great, it's incredible, you know… just [to] sort of see us, what we're doing. It's unbelievable.

George: What were you doing?

John: Yes, what were we doing?

Paul: Well, I don't really know, you know. But it's like we'd totally sort of put our own personalities under for the sake of it, and you can really see, you know, we're all, sort of..

John: Who's writing all them songs... in your room?

Paul: Oh, that was probably when we did an incredible number, you know. [regaining thread] But there's a long shot of you walking..

George: Do you regret having gone there?

Paul: [emphatically] No, no. Oh no, no

John: I don't regret anything…. ever. Not even Bob Wooler.

Paul: No, I just think, we weren't sort of really very truthful there, you know... Things like sneaking behind his [i.e. the Maharishi's] back and sort of saying, 'It's a bit like school, isn't it?' But you can see on the film that it is very like school and that, really, we should have sort of said...

[It’s during this John’s doing his microphone blowjob]

John: You want to call it ‘What We Did On Our Holidays'

Paul: There's a long shot of you sort of walking with him - and it's just not you, you know. [chuckles] It's just sort of, [in American accent] 'Tell me, O Master...’

John: 'Tell me, O Master..’

Paul: And Linda remembered that thing you said the other night about when you went up in the helicopter with him. You just thought he might slip you the answer.

Laughing.

John: I thought he might fly off home.

Paul: ‘Hey, John, by the way…’

John: '.. I've been meaning to tell you.’

Paul: 'I've been meaning to tell you, son.’

John: 'The word is "vajira".'

Laughing.

George: I wouldn't mind having, er….

John: I wouldn't mind having his money.

Laughing.

George: I wouldn't mind having two months out of every four months in a place like that, though.

Paul: It's incredible stuff. And then the next scene burns out white again, and the next scene is just this monkey that just comes up and humps this other monkey.

Laughing.

Paul: It's great, you know. And I mean the way, oh, he really gets up there [he] really just stretches her out. And then they just jump off, and they just start sort of picking each other. Just jumping.

A few moments later…

Paul: It's that thing, you know: we probably should have sort of….

John: Been ourselves.

Paul: Yeah. A lot more, yeah.

George: That's like the biggest joke to be yourselves'. 'Cos that was the purpose of going there, to try and find yourself.

John: Yeah. Well, we found that, didn't we?

George: And if you were really yourself you wouldn't be any of who we are now

Paul: Mmm.

John: All act naturally, then.

John/Paul: [singing] 'They're gonna put me in the movies/ They're gonna make a big star out of me.

John: We'd better do a few numbers, hadn't we…. 'cos it's Wednesday,

The Governor’s Attic

Geoffrey MacLean tracks down a hoard of valuable 19th-century Caribbean paintings in an English country house

By Geoffrey MacLean

George Francis Robert Harris, the third Lord Harris, arrived in Port of Spain in 1846. He was a popular and impartial administrator who rescued Trinidad’s economy after the crash of the sugar industry and the abolition of slavery. Under his administration a system of labour indentureship was formalised through immigration from India, China and Madeira, setting the stage for Trinidad’s present cultural diversity.

Between 1848 and 1854, when Harris left Trinidad, there were marked improvements in virtually all aspects of life in Trinidad: the economy, education, government administration, public utilities. Lord Harris’s marriage in 1850 to a Trinidadian, Sarah Cummins, at Trinity Cathedral in Port of Spain, provided an unprecedented social spectacle, and endeared the Governor further to the population.

Two years after Lord Harris’s arrival, Michel Cazabon, Trinidad’s great 19th-century artist, returned to Port of Spain from Paris, intent on making his living by painting. Though from very different social backgrounds, Harris and Cazabon had much in common and became close friends. Both had been educated in England and both had lived in France, Harris in the south for his health, Cazabon in Paris as an art student.

During Harris’s term of office, Cazabon prepared two volumes of lithographic prints, Views of Trinidad 1851 and Album of Trinidad 1857. They depicted many scenes of historic interest and natural beauty: The Governor’s Residence, St Ann’s; The Cottage, Mount Tanana; The Reservoir at Maraval; Caledonia and Craig Islands; Maracas Waterfall.

Caledonia and Craig Islands by Cazabon

.............................................................................................................................

The lithographs and sketches prepared by the artist for The Illustrated London News showed Cazabon’s constant attendance on the Governor to record official functions and social excursions. Harris is seen straddling the root of a huge tree in the hunting party in Cedar Point, Mount Tamana, the artist seated with his sketch pad behind him. The wedding party on its way to the honeymoon cottage on Craig Island, as seen in Caledonia and Craig Islands, is that of Lord Harris and his new bride, daughter of George Cummins, the Archdeacon of Trinidad.

After the publication of my book on Cazabon in 1986 (Cazabon: An Illustrated Biography; Aquarela Galleries, Trinidad), I was still fascinated by the relationship between Lord Harris and Cazabon. I felt that the Governor would not have left the colony without taking with him mementos in the form of paintings by his friend, which would form an important record of Trinidad’s history. Initial enquiries proved fruitless – there are several Lord Harrises in Britain, and no indication which of them might be descended from Trinidad’s Governor. But I discussed the possibilities with another Cazabon enthusiast, Brian Tonkinson, who was able to trace the Harris family to Belmont, near Faversham in Kent.

Belmont House, deep in the English countryside, is as far removed from the hustle and bustle of Port of Spain as one can imagine. This stately home is owned by the present Lord Harris, the sixth in succession, a successful and charming farmer. At that time, the house was looked after by the Lodge-keeper, Mr Hacking, who, when asked about the possibility of paintings by Cazabon, remembered some sketches in an album in the library relating to Trinidad – and several oil paintings stored in the attic, believed also to date from that period.

Early in 1991 I visited Belmont. Since our first contact, the estate had become the responsibility of a Trust under the chairmanship of Lord Harris. As the art collection was described and catalogued, its historic importance became clear. The “album in the library” contained a series of watercolours by Michel Cazabon, about 35 of the most important visual references to 19th-century Trinidad in existence. The oil paintings in the attic also turned out to be fine examples of Cazabon’s art.

...........................................................................................................................

Among the watercolours there were images of creole women, views of the Port of Spain docks, the districts of Corbeaux Town and Carenage, sea views from Gasparee island and of Craig and Caledonia Islands, the island ferry, and studies taken at sunrise and sunset, the most charming of which was as contemporary as the scene today — a young boy flying a kite on the Port of Spain Savannah at sunset, and a spectacular panorama of the Savannah from Cotton Hill. These glimpses from a different era underlined the long and important tradition of the Savannah as the social and recreational centre of Trinidad’s capital.

Boy with Kite, Queen's Park Savannah, Port of Spain by Cazabon

..............................................................................................................................

The oil paintings were just as interesting, and showed how important Cazabon had been in recording the life and status of the Governor. Several were on a scale not seen before in Cazabon’s work: one of them, the largest I have seen by Cazabon, shows a view of Port of Spain from Laventille Hill, with the Governor in a top-hat surveying the city with his guide. Two other paintings were of the Lodge on Mount Tamana where the Governor and his party stayed on their hunting expeditions, an exterior view showing the simple thatched building and an interior with some of the day’s catch of wild birds and quenk, the wild pigs that roam Trinidad’s forests.

The Wedding of Lord Harris at Trinity Church, Port of Spain (sepia watercolour 1850, 290 x 380 mm) ............................................................................................................................

Trinity Cathedral, where the Governor married his Trinidad bride, was beautifully rendered in two sepia watercolour sketches. My favourite was a dramatic view of the Northern Range from Tamana, looking over a thickly forested central plain, the foreground punctuated by a brightly plumed bird in flight, watched by its mate resting on the branch of a nearby tree.

..............................................................................................................................

Although the prime exhibit at Belmont is a collection of clocks, the passion of the fifth Lord Harris, the Trust has used the new Cazabons to formalise a display of Trinidad’s great painter. After restoration, mounted and framed, the paintings look magnificent.

Cazabon’s renderings are not romantic. He did not glamourise life or landscape. In recording the unvarnished truth, he left us a clear picture of Trinidad at a vital stage of development. Today’s society was just being formed; the effects of slavery and its collapse were being felt in a bankrupt economy and a new social order. The population was volatile, wary of officialdom, and eager to demonstrate both against injustice (Harris faced rioters in person as they objected to the shaving of the heads of civil offenders) and for proper public utilities, especially a regular water supply.

Yet it can be seen how much Governor Harris enjoyed Trinidad: its natural beauty, its wildlife, its handsome people and its architecture. His friendship with Cazabon was remarkable, given the two men’s different social and ethnic backgrounds. Cazabon attended many of the events in the Governor’s life not just as a recorder of history but as a participant: his renderings of the Governor’s marriage in Trinity Cathedral are extraordinary in the way they capture the excitement of the crowd and the sense of occasion.

At Belmont, the paintings, all dating from 1850 to 1854, now hang where the third Lord Harris originally placed them: in the Blue Bedroom, the Blue Dressing Room and the South Bedroom. Any student of Trinidad’s social or artistic history, indeed anyone with a nostalgia for the Caribbean’s past, should see them.

The guidebook states: “Here, and in the next two rooms, is displayed the unique collection of watercolours of Trinidad by Michel Jean Cazabon (1813-1888), an artist of French ‘free coloured’ origin born in Trinidad. He was educated in England at St Edmund’s, Ware (a Catholic school), and trained as an artist in France. He exhibited at the Louvre every year from 1842 until 1847, and returned to Trinidad in 1848. The paintings at Belmont were commissioned by the third Lord Harris while he was Governor of Trinidad in the middle of the 19th century.”

A muse you hate but write really well.

         I think this question is in a literal sense, like which do I loathe as a person but love to write etc and it’s probably Samael (  oldddd old timey oc connected to my George Harrision account  ), but I need to be accurate cause he’s not actually a person and never was. And it really is important to also note that I’ve talked about him here, but have left out a detail, that should have been addressed, because although I’ve stated that he is a reaper and his names listed there all correlate with that title, he was at the time I wrote him possessed by a demon and Lord knows I can’t even remember now the backstory I had for that specifically but it was something that happened and he tormented Harrison and Boyd for several months. Given that aspect of him (  he wasn’t in control of course, as a reaper, that activity is inexcusable - plus I am generally smitten with reapers  ), I dislike him an awful lot and he’s probably the only one I can truly list for that question. I would have said Kylo, but with him I had a change of heart.

The Chapel of the Cross is an Episcopal Church located at 674 Mannsdale Road in Madison, Mississippi.

John and Margaret Johnstone had purchased 524 acres and moved to the community along with their two daughters, Francis and Helen, in 1841.  Following John’s death in 1848, his wife Margaret fulfilled their dream of a building a place to worship on their planation known as Annadale.  In 1852 the Chapel of the Cross was consecrated by William Mercer Green, the first Episcopal Bishop of Mississippi.

In 1857, the youngest daughter of John and Margaret, Helen became engaged to Henry Vick, a descendent of the founder of Vicksburg.  Days before their wedding on May 17, 1859, Vick was killed in a duel.  He was buried in the Johnstone’s family cemetery located directly behind the church on the day that was to have been his and Helen’s wedding.  It is said that Helen wore her wedding gown to the funeral.

Grave site of Henry Vick

Helen found love again in 1862 when she was introduced to the new clergy at Chapel of the Cross, Rev. George Carroll Harris.  The following is from the Mont Helena website:

“George served as a chaplain in the Confederate army. He was lauded a hero due to his dedication to remain and provide aid during the yellow fever epidemic in Memphis, Tennessee. He served as Rector in many different cities during his career. George’s extensive studies in theology earned him the degree of Doctor of Sacred Theology.

Helen and George fell in love and were married in August of 1862. They had three children, two boys and a girl. Their oldest child, a son, died several days after his birth. Helen spent her life with George in the typical fashion of the era. She cared for her children, assisted George in the church and enjoyed the social life befitting her status in the community.

In 1896, the Harrises retired to “The Helen Place” in Rolling Fork. George accepted the position of Rector at the Chapel of the Cross in Rolling Fork. They built a home on the highest point on the Helen Place and renamed the plantation “Mont Helena.”

After 49 years of marriage, George died in 1911. Helen continued to live at Mont Helena until her death in 1917. They are both buried in Mound Cemetery in Rolling Fork.”

Mont Helena was built atop an Indian mound on land Helen inherited from her family.  Rolling Fork is located an hour and a half from what was the Annadale Plantation in Madison.  Annadale burned to the ground in 1924, while Mont Helena stands to this day having in recent years been restored to all of her former glory.

Harrision Lillian Potter looked so much like his mother, his eyes however, he had his father's eyes. He was an unsual child, according to those who knew him. His lanky form, his sudden random acts of luck and the emotionless stare he held whilst staring out into the distance. Those, however, could be explained. His form was due to years of mistreatment by the Dursleys, the second was because he was a wizard, the third was because he was a true Seer.

Hogwarts has to prepare for a different boy-who-lived, one who is more like his mother than his father. A boy who isn't walking into the wizarding world blindly, who is prepared for the best and the worst that the halls of Hogwarts have to offer with the Philosopher's stone within it's gates.
