This is the sixteenth since our re-launch in 1999 following a ten-year absence. We are delighted to be back at the Charotar Patidar Samaj for the fifteenth time. As always we are showcasing the brewing expertise of our Leicestershire and Rutland breweries on our LocAle bars, we also feature a selection of breweries within 25 miles as the crow flies from the festival site giving an amazing 40 breweries within the area to choose from. This year we have divided the servery up into six distinct bars and colour-coded them (see p 15 for details). We have numbered the beers to make it easier to remember what to order at the bar. Our festival is one of many that play a major role not just as fund raising, but also to keep people informed about CAMRA’s work and the vast range of beers that are now available to the consumer. This continuous background work nationwide has doubtless helped change attitudes towards real ale. Our theme this year is XV, a full explanation of which appears in the article on page 9. A number of breweries have produced one-off brews in connection with this. Our festival glass incorporates the logo and is available in half pint tankard, goblet and straight pint. They are lined, oversized glasses to ensure a FULL MEASURE. We hope you like it and take one home as a souvenir. Please use the half pint glasses (marked with the third line) if you wish to drink thirds. Our ever popular Cider Bar has a selection of over 35 ciders and perries; some are old favourites and some new to the festival. Most of what we sell comes from small producers and it’s all made from pressed and fermented fresh juice from British grown apples or pears. For those requiring something other than Real Ale or Cider we also have a stall selling bottled beer and wines. Also a firm favourite are our Indian curries, as well as locally produced cold English food, tea, coffee and soft drinks are also available. I would like to thank all the volunteers who work throughout the festival and whose support we depend on, Everards Brewery Limited for their continued generous help and support, AnchorPrint for design and printing and the the numerous others who have helped make this event happen . As in previous years, we are collecting for LOROS again this year; please give generously to this good cause using the collection buckets around the hall. We do, as always, sympathise with any nominated drivers attending, so our soft drinks will be free of charge. Enjoy our Festival but please remember DON’T DRINK AND DRIVE. Telephone numbers of local taxi companies are listed in the entrance to the Festival. Please note this Beer Festival is NON-SMOKING. If you wish to smoke please use the designated area outside. The use Leicester CAMRA wish to thank of e-cigarettes is also not permitted inside the building.

First time at a beer festival? Once you have paid your entrance fee you will need to collect your glass. Don’t worry if you don’t want to keep the glass, we will take the glass back when you have finished and refund the cost as long as you haven’t damaged it (although they do make great souvenirs to take home!). You will find the beers numbered and in alphabetical order by brewery name. It is worth starting on the lower ABV (Alcohol by Volume) beers. Why not start with a Mild Beer? You can then sit down and decide what takes your fancy by reading the tasting notes in the programme. Work your way up through the bitters and best bitters at a steady pace before going for something stronger. Don’t go for a strong 5.0 ABV straight away. Please remember that it is unusual for some of the beers to last through four days of the festival. If a particular beer is not available it is most likely someone has beaten you to it! Make sure you have something to eat during the session, there is nothing worse than drinking on an empty stomach and getting that fresh air attack when you leave. Fancy something different? Why not try one of our real ciders or perries? This is not the fizzy cider you get in most pubs this is produced by traditional independent farmhouse producers. They are 100% pure and natural but beware – they are normally very strong.

    The Network of James Garden of Aberdeen and North-Eastern Scottish Culture in the Seventeenth Century

    Kelsey Jackson Williams Network of James Garden of Aberdeen The Network of James Garden of Aberdeen and North-eastern Scottish Culture in the Seventeenth Century In April 1695 Hew Tod, the master of the Kirkwall grammar school, was writing about scurvy. “This season of the year”, he wrote, “could not but putt me in mind” of it for almost every “privat family or Tavern” in the Orkneys had its supply of ale fortified with herbs to prevent the disease. He described this and other local cures in a letter to James Garden, Professor of Divinity at King’s College, Aberdeen, who had been hounding him for almost a year for some account of his new home in the northern islands. Tod’s letter survives because Garden subsequently copied it into a letter which he wrote to the English antiquary and Fellow of the Royal Society John Aubrey in July 1695. Garden and Aubrey had been corresponding for several years and what had begun as a request from the Englishman for information on Scottish stone circles had become a rich exchange of antiquarian and natural philosophical material between the two scholars. In the process, Garden had mobilised a network of contacts which spread from Aberdeen to Tod’s Kirkwall schoolhouse, asking for information on everything from standing stones to second sight and from burial customs to scurvy cures.1 When these letters were studied by Cosmo Gordon in 1955, he recognised them as important sources for aspects of early modern Gaelic culture.2 Subsequently John Buchanan-Brown demonstrated their role in the development of Aubrey’s antiquarian works, and Michael Hunter teased out their key place in English debates over the existence and nature of second sight.3 As such, Garden’s correspondence is hardly unknown, but previous scholarship has tended either to focus on its English contexts or to mine it for information on contemporary Gaelic culture; Garden and his network of informants have been passed over.

    SCOTLAND AND THE BRITISH ARMY c.1700-c.1750 By VICTORIA HENSHAW A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham September 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT The historiography of Scotland and the British army in the eighteenth century largely concerns the suppression of the Jacobite risings – especially that of 1745-6 – and the growing assimilation of Highland soldiers into its ranks during and after the Seven Years War. However, this excludes the other roles and purposes of the British army, the contribution of Lowlanders to the British army and the military involvement of Scots of all origin in the British army prior to the dramatic increase in Scottish recruitment in the 1750s. This thesis redresses this imbalance towards Jacobite suppression by examining the place of Scotland and the role of Highland and Lowland Scots in the British army during the first half of the eighteenth century, at a time of change fuelled by the Union of 1707 and the Jacobite rebellions of the period.

Primarily, there is a Manu- script in the possession of Lord Clinton, preserved at Fettercairn House, Kincardineshire, and dealing entirely with the conditions in the Jacobite Court at Rome in 1719. Also in possession of Lord Clinton at Fettercairn House is the beautiful panel portrait of Lord Pitsligo reproduced here as frontispiece. The second source drawn upon for this Book is the marvellous collection of Jacobite Papers in the Royal Archives at Windsor, from which, by gracious permission of His Majesty, a number of letters are here printed, throwing light upon the characters and after- lives of the various actors in Pitsligo’s Narrative.
