RICHMOND [VA] WHIG January - June, 1864 RICHMOND [VA] WHIG, January 1, 1864, p. 2, c. 1 The New Year. "Old Sixty Three" is gone at last, and, this day, young "Sixty Four" steps forward to run his course.—In bidding farewell to the departed year, we cannot repress a mental retrospect of the direful events which have reddened the pages of history since we last penned a New Year's paragraph. Blood, precious blood, has been shed profusely, and we may well be excused for indulging the oft-used simile that the incessant raindrops yesterday were tears over the sorrows which the passing year had brought on the helpless victims of this war. But we will not dwell upon the past. Hope bids us look to the future. The good book says, truly, that "no man knoweth what a day may bring forth." We shall, therefore, not attempt to predict what will take place during the next twelve months.

  • The Friends of the Twickenham Museum
    FRIENDS OF TWICKENHAM MUSEUM NEWSLETTER December 2001 The Friends of The Twickenham Museum At llam on Saturday December 15th 2001 the door of 25 The Embankment will open and the life of an institution will begin. Visitors on this and the following Saturday will see a collection of illustrations of local life and history prepared and hung by John Sheaf. It is a quiet unveiling of the old house left to us by the late Jack Ellis, restored in a way we believe he would have approved. Fanfares will come later, next Spring when we join in celebration of the centenary of the 1902 Act for the protection of the view from Richmond Hill: Arcadia 2002. For the moment we want to introduce the house to those who have watched, waited and supported us, and to present an outline ofthe rich and varied history ofthe old borough in its full extent. The House Some of you will recall the sight which greeted us on taking possession nearly three years ago, of rooms packed to bursting with goods of every description which you later helped to sell. Many have looked in at subsequent stages in the house's recovery, curiosity overcoming the bazards of entry. At our last Open Day before building work began, Tony Beckles Willson's history of St Mary's Church was launched and a small exhibition mounted. By the end of March this year the administrators of Jack Ellis's estate had finished their work, and the house belonged, for the first time in law, to The Twickenham Museum.

  • 1 Edmund Harris, Twickenham Rugby Ground 1906-1910: a Grand Gesture
    Edmund Harris, Twickenham Rugby Ground 1906-1910: A Grand Gesture (September, 2002) Introduction In his book, The Football Grounds of Great Britain, Simon Inglis makes a telling observation in that although “the architecture books are full of studies of the dullest church, even Pevsner’s Guide To The Buildings of England, mentions only two football grounds; Wembley and Hillsborough, and even then only in passing.”1 Within this scenario, the Rugby Football Union ground at Twickenham rests comfortably. As the single most dominant architectural feature on the Twickenham landscape it has largely escaped serious historical attention. What has become accepted as the definitive history of Twickenham Rugby ground has mostly been passed down from O.L.Owen who wrote the History of the Rugby Football Union in the 1950s.2 Nothing since has been produced which has tested or rigorously questioned Owen’s legacy. Wallace Reyburn did write Twickenham – The Story of a Rugby Ground in the 1970s, but mostly what historical information it contains echoes Owen’s earlier account.3 The legend has it that it was fine, all-round sportsman and rugby referee Billy Williams who found the Twickenham site after a year of scouting around for a suitable home and headquarters for the England rugby game and the Rugby Football Union. Because of the inferior nature of the site, it was almost immediately dubbed ‘Billy Williams’ Cabbage Patch’. Whereas the overall scheme was later praised as an example of “hard bargaining and honest accounting at their best,”4 there is evidence to suggest otherwise. Starting with The Roots of Twickenham Rugby Ground, this paper sets out to firstly examine Owen’s partial perspective within the context of the Rugby Football Union and the England game before 1907.
