The Covid-19 pandemic has brought us all unprecedented circumstances and unforeseen challenges. As 2020 dawned, none of us could have anticipated what lay ahead of us. All of us have been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, experienced hardships, and made sacrifices. For some, life will never return to what was regarded as ‘normal’ prior to the pandemic. Now, temperatures are dropping, daylight hours are shortening, and the clocks go back this weekend. Clearly, winter is almost upon us. Unfortunately, during the winter months, we’ll face an upsurge in Covid-19 cases, with the added challenges of incidences of flu. As the numbers of Covid-19 cases, hospital admissions and deaths rise again across Scotland, sadly there have been several deaths in a Dumfries care home this week. Our sincere sympathies go to all those bereaved. The Scottish Government is now exploring the possibility of a multiple-tier system, involving differing levels of restrictions that can be applied nationally or regionally, depending on levels of infection. Whatever the outcome, we urge you to comply with the restrictions set and take all available precautions to protect the wellbeing of you and your loved ones. -

Peter Chalmers And Biographical Notices or Memoranda of the preceding Abbots. LIST OF ABBOTS DUNFERMLINE ABBEY Ebenezer Henderson. Annals of Dunfermline. Glasgow, 1879. From Historical and Statistical Account Of Dunfermline By Rev. Peter Chalmers Vol. I P.176- In Steven‟s History of the ancient Abbeys, Monasteries, &c. of England, vol. i. fol. 1722, there is a Life of St Benedict, and an account of that order, and its rules, from which it appears that there were connected with the order as members of it, not less than 48 popes from St Boniface IV to Gregory XII inclusive; 11 emperors, who resigned their dignity, and became of the order of St Benedict, from the year 725 to 1039; 9 empresses; 10 queens, one of whom was Maud, Queen of England, grandchild of Malcolm Canmore; 20 kings (besides 11 others, an emperors, who submitted to the rule); 8 princes, sons of do; 15 dukes of Venice, Italy &c.; 13 earls, besides many other persons of different ranks. There are inserted in the column also two bulls in favour of the order, one by Pope Gregory, and the other, its confirmation by Pope Zachary I. 2 The monastery of Dunfermline is generally thought to have been ony a Priory till the reign of David I, and to have been raised by him to the rank of an Abbey, on the occasion of his bringing thirteen monks from Canterbury; which, on the supposition of the previous occupants being Culdees, was intended to reconcile them to the new order of things. -
