I will endeavour to continue the excellent work of my predecessors and thank both Sylvia and Tony for their help and guidance through my year as Senior Vice president. I look forward to working with Peter who is my SVP this year. I owe a great deal of thanks to my club St Neots for proposing me for this important role. It is reassuring to know that I have the full support of the club and its members to carry out my Presidential duties. My thanks also go to the Officers of the county who work tirelessly to make the game available and enjoyable to everyone that wishes to participate. As I meet other officers from various Counties they comment on unification and how well Bowls Cambridgeshire has progressed and is still progressing through the changes I hope that members realise the value and amount of the work undertaken by the Officers and without their efforts the county would not function effectively. Over the past few years Cambridgeshire Bowlers have achieved success at International, European, and World levels being represented by both genders in these events. We should be proud to acknowledge their achievements, as they not only represent themselves; they are ambassadors for their clubs and County as well as Bowls England. It is important that we maintain a legacy for future generations in order that they can play bowls at venues that are convenient to them. Every club in the county is important regardless of its size and playing ability, it is essential that all clubs are supported in their efforts to attract new members and I have a plea for all existing bowlers to encourage friends and acquaintances to visit their club so that they can enjoy the sport of bowls and its associated social activities. Finally I wish everyone good health, good bowling, and hopefully good weather. I look forward to seeing many old faces and welcoming new faces to the greens this year.

Jortner, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2005 This dissertation, prepared towards the completion of a Ph.D. in Theatre and Performance Studies at the University of Pittsburgh, examines “Yankee Theatre” in America and London through a post-colonial lens from 1787 to 1855. Actors under consideration include: Charles Mathews, James Hackett, George Hill, Danforth Marble and Joshua Silsbee. These actors were selected due to their status as iconic performers in “Yankee Theatre.” The Post-Revolutionary period in America was filled with questions of national identity. Much of American culture came directly from England. American citizens read English books, studied English texts in school, and watched English theatre. They were inundated with English culture and unsure of what their own civilization might look like.

  • The English Atlantic World: a View from London Alison Games Georgetown University
    The English Atlantic World: A View from London Alison Games Georgetown University William Booth occupied an unfortunate status in the land of primogeniture and the entailed estate. A younger son from a Cheshire family, he went up to London in May, 1628, "to get any servis worth haveinge." His letters to his oldest brother John, who had inherited the bulk of their father's estate, and John's responses, drafted on the back of William's original missives, describe the circumstances which enticed men to London in search of work and the misfortunes that subsequently ushered them overseas. William Booth, unable to find suitable employment in the metropolis, implored his brother John to procure a letter of introduction on his behalf from their cousin Morton. Plaintively reminding his brother "how chargeable a place London is to live in," he also requested funds for a suit of clothes in order to make himself more presentable in his quest for palatable employment. William threatened his older brother with military service on the continent if he could find no position in London, preferring to "goe into the lowcuntries or eles wth some man of warre" than to stay in London. John Booth, dismayed by his sibling's martial inclination, offered William money from his own portion of their father's estate rather than permit William to squander his own smaller share. In what proved to be a gross misreading of William's character but perhaps a sound assessment of his desire for the status becoming his ambitions, John urged William to seek a position with a bishop.

  • Blood Group Survey, Based on Data Collected in the Course of The
    THE PATTERN OF THE ABO BLOOD GROUP FREQUENCIES IN IRELAND W. E. R. HACKETT Late Medical Director, National Blood Transfusion Association of Ireland G. W. P. DAWSON School of Botany, Trinity College, Dublin C. J. DAWSON Chief Technician, Notional Blood Transfusion Centre, Dublin Received9.viii.55 ThE genetic history of any population may be elucidated either by historical studies using written, oral and archological evidence or by analysing the present day population to discover, if possible, the components of its composition. The two approaches are comple- mentary and the primary aim of the present paper is to consider the frequencies of the ABO blood group genes in peoples in different parts of Ireland and to correlate these frequencies with what is known of the history of the population. As that which is new is the ABO blood group survey, based on data collected in the course of the work of the National Blood Transfusion Association, this will be described at length and some account will also be given of the distribu- tion of Rhesus-positive and Rhesus-negative people. I.AN OUTLINE OF THE HISTORY OF THE POPULATION OF IRELAND Irelandhas no internal geographical barriers to speak of. The mountains are low, the rivers shallow. In general the most productive agricultural land is in the east, the most barren in the west, but there are few parts which are not inhabitable on a basis of either a tillage, a grazing or a fishing economy. From archaological evidence it appears that Ireland was first inhabited in the immediate post-glacial period.
