#OnThisDayInHistory, Gerald Ford pardons Richard Nixon in 1974. This is no way sets us up for where we are today.

A photo of Gerald Ford giving an address on TV. He has thinning hair, and wears a dark suit and dark striped tie. He sits in a black leather chair in front of a window with gold drapes. He is in soft focus.

#OnThisDayInHistory, the United States gets its nickname, "Uncle Sam," in 1813. It comes from meat packer Samuel Wilson, whose beef barrels he supplied to the army became referred to as "Uncle Sam's" meat. At least, that's the story Congress went with.

A yellowed photo of Samuel Wilson. His white hair is long over his ears, and he has a mustache. The hair on top of his head has been flat ironed. He wears a large dark-colored coat with buttons. His name appears at the bottom of the picture.

#OnThisDayInHistory, one of Magellan's ships, the "Victoria," arrives in Spain, thus completing circumnavigating the world, in 1522. He didn't fall off the Earth or get eaten by dragons or anything!

An illustration of Magellan's voyage. A galleon is on a map off the coast of South America. The wind is in its sails, and its flags stream behind it.

#OnThisDayInHistory, Sarah Winchester, heiress of the Winchester Repeating Arms Company fortune, dies, halting progress on her famous house in 1922. She calls it “Llanada Villa," but we all know it as the Winchester Mystery House. Spooky-ooky!

A photo of the Winchester Mystery House. It is a pale yellow Victorian mansion with a large porch, gables, a turret, and many spires. It has a beautifully manicured yard and is shot against a vibrant blue sky.

#OnThisDayInHistory, the Great Fire of London breaks out in 1666. It happens when Mrs. O'Leary's cow kicks over an overheated glue pot in the house of King Charles II’s baker on Pudding Lane.

A black-and-white drawing from the Great Fire of London. The city buildings are in flames, with dark smoke rising over the left-hand side of the picture. The buildings are on arched platforms next to the river. In the river there are boats with rowers. The boat in the foreground has four people in it, while the one in the distance has many people in it, with what look to be weapons.
