  1. Priest Rapids

    Priest Rapids was a narrow, fast flowing stretch of the Columbia River , located in the central region of the U.S. state of Washington U.S. state Washington . It was flooded by the construction of the Priest Rapids Dam in the 1950s. Before the dam s construction, the river dropped 20 feet 6 m over a short distance. In total Priest Rapids consisted of seven separate cataracts along a 9 mile 14  km stretch, over which the river dropped 72 feet 22 m altogether. ref cite book last Dorpat first Paul coauthors Genevieve McCoy title Building Washington A History of Washington State Public Works year 1998 publisher Tartu Publications isbn 0 9614357 9 8 page 25 ref It was given the name Priest Rapids by Alexander Ross fur trader Alexander Ross of the Pacific Fur Company in 1811. Ross wrote of his visit to the strong and rocky rapid where he met a man called Haquilaugh, which signifies priest. Haquilaugh was an influential Wanapum leader, for whom Ross gave the rapids its English name. At Priest Rapids the Columbia River narrowed and flowed quickly, making it an ideal salmon fishing site. There were several rapids and fishing sites, and a dozen or so Wanapum villages along the west bank of the Columbia River at Priest Rapids. Priest Rapids Dam , built in the 1950s, submerged Priest Rapids, taking advantage of the river s drop for Hydroelectricity hydroelectric power production. Thus today there are no rapids at Priest Rapids.

  1. Josias Priest

    Josias Priest c. 1645 3 January 1735 in Chelsea, London was an England English dancer, dancing master and Choreography choreographer . History In 1669, he was arrested along with four others for dancing and making music without a license. In 1668, he was a dancing master in Holborn , and in 1675 he moved to Leicester Fields to run a boarding school for Gentleman gentlewomen . In 1680 he started a similar school at Gorge s House in Chelsea, London . Here Priest sic hosted opera s, including John Blow s Venus and Adonis opera Venus and Adonis 1684 and Henry Purcell s Dido and Aeneas 1689 . It is widely believed that Priest choreographed dances for these and other semi operas by Purcell, including Dioclesian , The Fairy Queen , The Indian Queen opera The Indian Queen , and King Arthur opera King Arthur however, the evidence is not entirely conclusive. In 1699 Thomas Bray published a collection of dance music which included music for dances by Josias Priest and his son, Thomas Priest. Only one dance by Priest survives, a Minuet by Mr Preist Please do not change this spelling, Preist is correct in An Essay for the Further Improvement of Dancing 1711 published by Edmund Pemberton. References to Priest s choreography remain in some musical sources, however. The surviving minuet is for twelve women and uses a limited step vocabulary of minuet step s forwards, backwards and sideways, the main choreographic interest being in the floor patterns.
