Also during that term, as you will read in these pages, the College and the Society launched various activities to celebrate Catz40 – the 40th anniversary of the admission to St Catharine’s of the first female undergraduates in 1979–80. Possibly we should have used Roman numerals – CatzXL? Lent Term was also fairly normal until, as the end of term approached, it became clear that the COVID–19 pandemic and the associated lockdown would lead to a far from normal Easter Term. College closed almost completely; only those students who could not get home were allowed to remain. A bare minimum of staff were on the premises; others worked from home or were furloughed. Throughout Cambridge, Departments and Laboratories were closed. More details of how the College coped appear in the Master’s Preface and in the various reports in the College section (Bursar, Senior Tutors, Operations Director and, not least, Admissions); interestingly the Library, though ‘closed’ was busier than ever. There is also an article on how the University handled the plagues of the past. Some sports had taken place in Michaelmas and Lent, so there are Sports Reports as usual. However, some, like cricket, were a write off (though Varsity cricket and golf matches did eventually take place under strict social distancing conditions resulting in some Catz Blues). Assessment was a challenge and only finalists were graded; students of all other years were ‘allowed to proceed.’ This has meant that there are only final year students in the list of awarded scholarships for 2020. And so to a graduation like never before. Nobody in Cambridge to celebrate. The Music Society devised a ‘leaving song’ to the tune of the Londonderry Air. Each person sang along to a backing track and recorded their efforts which were then edited together to produce a ‘leaving chorus.’ As you will read, there were some graduation surprises for the leavers, not least the sky-writing heart above College pictured on the cover of this Magazine. And the May Ball which never happened has its report – indeed a better report than that for some years when it did happen. Finally, we come to the admissions round for 2020. The Report from the Admissions Tutors makes interesting reading. No wonder they use the subtitle ‘U-turn if you want to.’ Sadly, during the year we lost three well-known and well-loved personalities from the Fellowship: Philip Oliver and Glen Cavaliero were in College for lunch almost daily, and Hugh Searle was a frequent visitor until his move to Scotland after his retirement as Secretary of the St Catharine’s College Society. Glen and Hugh died within 24 hours of each other. Obituaries are in the College Report. Over the summer, any surplus Magazines from the previous year are distributed around College rooms for the delectation of those attending conferences. There were, of course, no conferences in 2020, so the 2019 surplus will all go for recycling. Altogether it has been interesting trying to put together a Magazine working almost entirely from home. I am very grateful again to all contributors and to others who continue to help every year – to Chris Thorne for handling (with inexhaustible persistence and patience) all the student contributions and to Christopher Catling for some substantial editing. Tony Watts and my long-suffering wife Pauline also assist with copy-editing and proof-reading, and Hamish Symington handles the layout.

    HITCHMOUGH’S BLACK COUNTRY PUBS WEDNESBURY (Inc. Kings Hill, Mesty Croft) 3rd. Edition - © 2014 Tony Hitchmough. All Rights Reserved www.longpull.co.uk INTRODUCTION Well over 40 years ago, I began to notice that the English public house was more than just a building in which people drank. The customers talked and played, held trips and meetings, the licensees had their own stories, and the buildings had experienced many changes. These thoughts spurred me on to find out more. Obviously I had to restrict my field; Black Country pubs became my theme, because that is where I lived and worked. Many of the pubs I remembered from the late 1960’s, when I was legally allowed to drink in them, had disappeared or were in the process of doing so. My plan was to collect any information I could from any sources available. Around that time the Black Country Bugle first appeared; I have never missed an issue, and have found the contents and letters invaluable. I then started to visit the archives of the Black Country boroughs. Directories were another invaluable source for licensees’ names, enabling me to build up lists. The censuses, church registers and licensing minutes for some areas, also were consulted. Newspaper articles provided many items of human interest (eg. inquests, crimes, civic matters, industrial relations), which would be of value not only to a pub historian, but to local and social historians and genealogists alike. With the advances in technology in mind, I decided the opportunity of releasing my entire archive digitally, rather than mere selections as magazine articles or as a book, was too good to miss.

  • The Order of Military Merit to Corporal R
    Chapter Three The Order Comes to Life: Appointments, Refinements and Change His Excellency has asked me to write to inform you that, with the approval of The Queen, Sovereign of the Order, he has appointed you a Member. Esmond Butler, Secretary General of the Order of Military Merit to Corporal R. L. Mailloux, I 3 December 1972 nlike the Order of Canada, which underwent a significant structural change five years after being established, the changes made to the Order of Military U Merit since 1972 have been largely administrative. Following the Order of Canada structure and general ethos has served the Order of Military Merit well. Other developments, such as the change in insignia worn on undress ribbons, the adoption of a motto for the Order and the creation of the Order of Military Merit paperweight, are examined in Chapter Four. With the ink on the Letters Patent and Constitution of the Order dry, The Queen and Prime Minister having signed in the appropriate places, and the Great Seal affixed thereunto, the Order had come into being, but not to life. In the beginning, the Order consisted of the Sovereign and two members: the Governor General as Chancellor and a Commander of the Order, and the Chief of the Defence Staff as Principal Commander and a similarly newly minted Commander of the Order. The first act of Governor General Roland Michener as Chancellor of the Order was to appoint his Secretary, Esmond Butler, to serve "as a member of the Advisory Committee of the Order." 127 Butler would continue to play a significant role in the early development of the Order, along with future Chief of the Defence Staff General Jacques A.

Hobbes was outed as an athe- ist and discredited almost as soon as the work appeared. Subsequent criticism was seen to be the idle pursuit of a discredited text, an exer- cise upon which young militant churchmen could cut their teeth, as William Warburton observed in the eighteenth century.2 We need to be aware, however, that this was a story that was largely the cre- ation of Hobbes’s intellectual opponents, writers with an interest in sidelining Leviathan from the mainstream of the history of ideas.

  • Puritan Responses to Antinomianism in the Context Of
    Puritan Responses to Antinomianism in the Context of Reformed Covenant Theology: 1630 – 1696 Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2013 Christopher Earl Caughey 1 Summary This thesis analyzes the way in which six seventeenth-century puritans from both sides of the Atlantic responded to antinomians—those accused of rejecting divine law—and the methods these six puritans used in their responses. In his book Blown by the Spirit (2004), David Como has divided seventeenth-century antinomians into two camps: “inherentists/perfectionists” and “imputationists.” The former were mystical and held esoteric beliefs, while the latter were more theological—even citing Martin Luther in their support. While this thesis does not focus on either group of antinomians, the six puritans whose microhistories are studied tended to focus their response on the imputationists. T.D. Bozeman has argued in The Precisianist Strain (2004) that a strict moralism and rigorous pietism permeated the puritan community and provoked the imputationists to an “antinomian backlash.” This thesis will employ the microhistories of John Cotton, Edward Fisher, John Owen, John Bunyan, Samuel Petto and Herman Witsius in an analysis of the controversy surrounding the antinomian backlash. Part of what makes these six figures so helpful in this analysis is their liminal status within the puritan community. Cotton, Owen and Petto were Independents and Bunyan was a Baptist—all outside the communions which tended to be in powerful positions like the Presbyterians and the Anglicans. Fisher probably held membership, but not office, in a Presbyterian church. Finally, Witsius was a minister in the Dutch Reformed Church and became an outside voice in the controversy only because a group of English puritans asked him to mediate their own conflict over antinomianism.
