" He rigged elections to stay in office until he died. He set up a brutal secret police force and a network of informers. He paved the highway as far as his country estate but no further. He made his birthday a national holiday and insisted on ever more grandiose celebrations. He was an inveterate womanizer." The elections were also rigged. Not everything in that quote may be true but this article is written as if this guy was some sort of hero! He was corrupt and inept, and this article should at least hint at those basic truths. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 101.207.231.74 (talk) 12:15, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Prince Hall Freemasonry

Prince Hall Freemasonry is not a sect. It has been an important part of North American masonry for at least two centuries. In masonic terms it is an "obedience". Everybody got to be somewhere! (talk) 12:19, 17 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Antoinette

Page 8 of the 19 May 2011 Daily Observer has a sketch of Mrs Tubman ("Mrs. Antoinette Tubman is Dead: President Tubman's Widow, First Lady of Liberia 1948-1971"), who died on the previous day. Born on 24 February 1914, Antoinette Padmore studied at an Episcopal mission in Clay=Ashland, married William Tubman on 17 September 1948, mother of Wilhelmina, operated a museum in the Executive Mansion while first lady, owned some businesses, founded the nation's first program for orphans and disabled children, the nation's first psychiatric hospital (Catherine Mills Rehabilitation Center), sponsoring Sarah Simpson George Refuge Home for the Indigent; in late 1960s led many people in chartering the Social Services Association of Liberia. Her brother George Arthur Padmore was an ambassador (to which country is not specified), and her mother Mary Louise was the daughter of President Arthur Barclay. Because her parents died young, she was raised by her aunt, and George was raised by their favorite cousin, future president Edwin Barclay. Nyttend (talk) 21:11, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Jeopardy (TV) question

The final question on April 23rd (2014) was: Which country celebrates the birthday of William Tubman for leading the country for nearly three decades? Answer: Liberia. FYI, Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 01:00, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect. "What is Liberia?" is what we were looking for. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.244.74.253 (talk) 05:41, 21 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
