The All-Palestine Government of September/October 1948 was a messy affair: a last ditch effort by the Arab League and then de facto Palestinian national leader, Hajj Amin al-Husseini (AHE), to form a government, that will give some semblance of sovereignty and insert the Palestinian voice into the discussions about the future of Palestine at the UN General Assembly, which was about to discuss Bernadotte's recommendations (annex the Palestinian territories to Trans-Jordan).

During the 1910s, Luke Hoffman was an Ottawa University student pursuing a degree in science and a passion for photography and graphic design. Hoffman captured hundreds of lively and often funny images of student life—in the classroom, in residence halls and boarding rooms, at play, and around town. Some photos were used in the OU’s yearbook, but many survive only in 3 photo albums donated to FCHS in 2010 by Hoffman’s family. #KansasHistory#HistoricPhotography#OttawaKS@histodons@genealogy
