John Ball: Boer War
built 647 days ago
John Ball apparently lived his entire life in Watertown. He was a weaver, having learned the trade from his grandfather Peirce. In 1675 John received 16 shillings, 8 pence from the town for weaving done for Ned Sanders.[2/1:124] The Ball's had a maid as seen in this record, dated 18 January 1669-70. "Ordered that John Bigelow shall agree with John Balle the younger a bought Edward Sanderson his Daughter what wagis he shall give her for a yeeres sevis according to his best Descrition for providing for her such things as may be for her clothing as comfortably as may be".[2/1:98] Sanderson was apparently unable to care for his children as the town was looking to put them out as apprentices. John was chosen as one of the "Tything men" on 15 January 1683-4[2/2:16] and on 23 December 1684 was appraised of the fact that his parentsinlaw were "in great nesesity of sum Hellp By reson of Thear age Being unabell To Hellp Them selves".[2/2:20] On 9 April 1694 at a selectmen's meeting it was reported that "We have been at John Balls senr: and we could not find sippio: and we warned John Ball senr: from entertaining him as he would answer it to the town". The day before Sippio was warned to depart from Watertown "that the town be keept from trouble and charge with him".[2/2:114] Sippio was a negro.
John Ball's The First Team, written in 1971, concerned the idea that the USA has been invaded by the Soviet Union without the USSR having to fire a shot. The takeover is possible because of widespread cultural malaise. Undermined by Hippies and anti-war protestors, corrupt military-industrial complex producers who created faulty military hardware, weak-willed US Senators, and the superpower that was the USSR's propaganda machine (not to mention the Vietnam War's hangover), the USA was unable to defend against Soviet power.
In November 1987, at Ernst Zundel's request, Ball obtained wartime aerial photographs of Birkenau from the National Archives in Washington, D.C., and examined them at his office in Vancouver. He focused especially on the roofs of the crematory buildings, including the alleged gas chambers, seeking physical indicators relating to the standard Holocaust narrative.

"Indianapolis residents will now be served by one of the most advanced, innovative systems in the country."
