Amongst many architectural delights, Richard showed us the rotunda, newly restored in preparation for this year’s bicentennial, literally as the last lick of paint dried before its re-opening. We also saw, at Pavilion VII, the University’s cornerstone, laid on 6 October 1817 in the presence of three Presidents of the United States of America, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and James Monroe. A few days later, we were taken on a conducted tour of the Capitol Building in Washington DC. The guide explained that the foundation stone of the Capitol had been lost. It was believed, she said, that it had vanished when the British burnt Washington in the War of 1812. “We have looked everywhere and can’t find it anywhere”, she told us. Perhaps they should try the British Museum. Six years after Jefferson became the first President to be inaugurated in the new capital, Washington, and just a decade before he founded the University of Virginia, the foundation stone of Downing College was laid on 18 May 1807. That too has been lost. While it is reasonable to assume that it remains where it was originally placed, communal memory within the College as to its precise location has failed. We do know, however, that the inscription it bears includes the following statement: Haec vero aedificii primordia magister, professores et socii posuerunt quod ad religionis cultum, juris anglicani et medicinae scientiam et ad rectam juventutis ingenuae disciplinam promovendam feliciter eveniat. (These foundations of the building were laid by the Master, Professors and Fellows that it might proceed successfully with a view to the cultivation of religion, and the knowledge of English law and medicine and in promoting the right instruction of free-born youth.) This year marks the 300th anniversary of the execution of the will of Sir George Downing, Third Baronet, the founder of Downing College. While it would not be true to say that the last thing he wanted to do was to found a College in Cambridge, it was certainly not the first. As a splendid exhibition in the College Library to mark this anniversary explains, four cousins had to die without heirs before the College would be founded. Miraculously for the eventual foundation, this came to pass and eventually Downing’s College received its Royal Charter, 51 years after his death and 83 years after he signed 6 ALUMNI ASSOCIATION NEWSLETTER 2017 his will. There is a rich irony in the fact that many years in the interim and much of the estate were wasted on litigation in the Court of Chancery, a precursor of Jarndyce v. Jarndyce, as a result of an attempt to prevent the foundation of the College which, in time, would become a beacon for the study and teaching of law in the common law world. Today George Downing’s foundation flourishes as an outstanding academic institution. Its buildings are landmarks in English architecture and the College boasts fine facilities including a theatre and an art gallery. As the reports which follow in this Newsletter and College Record demonstrate, the College continues to maintain the highest academic standards, current Downing students continue to achieve distinction in sport, music, drama and many other activities, and Downing alumni in so many different fields continue to make a vital contribution to the life of this and many other nations. I am very proud to have been the President of the Downing College Alumni Association in this anniversary year. The Association, through its activities, does a great deal to promote the communal memory of the College, to support current students and to maintain links between the College and its old members. This is achieved, in particular, through the dedication and hard work of its Officers and Committee Members, all of whom are devoted to the College. I thank them very warmly for their support throughout my year of office and for all they continue to do for the College and the Alumni Association. In particular, I wish to acknowledge the outstanding contribution of Barrie Hunt, who stands down this year after seven years’ distinguished service as Secretary of the Association and Editor of the Newsletter. I have greatly enjoyed their companionship over the last year. It has been an enormous pleasure over the last twelve months to take part in so many College activities, formal and informal – including the celebrations for the 80th birthday of my tutor, John Hopkins – and to renew the friendship of many of my Downing contemporaries, of former supervisees from my years as a Teaching Fellow in Law and many other old friends. Throughout the year I have been struck by the huge affection in which the College is held by its old members and our shared sense of loyalty and gratitude for what it has given us. I suspect that if Sir George Downing were to visit his College today he would be rather bemused but extremely proud to observe what has become of his bequest to the nation.

  • The Satanic Rituals Anton Szandor Lavey
    The Rites of Lucifer On the altar of the Devil up is down, pleasure is pain, darkness is light, slavery is freedom, and madness is sanity. The Satanic ritual cham- ber is die ideal setting for the entertainment of unspoken thoughts or a veritable palace of perversity. Now one of the Devil's most devoted disciples gives a detailed account of all the traditional Satanic rituals. Here are the actual texts of such forbidden rites as the Black Mass and Satanic Baptisms for both adults and children. The Satanic Rituals Anton Szandor LaVey The ultimate effect of shielding men from the effects of folly is to fill the world with fools. -Herbert Spencer - CONTENTS - INTRODUCTION 11 CONCERNING THE RITUALS 15 THE ORIGINAL PSYCHODRAMA-Le Messe Noir 31 L'AIR EPAIS-The Ceremony of the Stifling Air 54 THE SEVENTH SATANIC STATEMENT- Das Tierdrama 76 THE LAW OF THE TRAPEZOID-Die elektrischen Vorspiele 106 NIGHT ON BALD MOUNTAIN-Homage to Tchort 131 PILGRIMS OF THE AGE OF FIRE- The Statement of Shaitan 151 THE METAPHYSICS OF LOVECRAFT- The Ceremony of the Nine Angles and The Call to Cthulhu 173 THE SATANIC BAPTISMS-Adult Rite and Children's Ceremony 203 THE UNKNOWN KNOWN 219 The Satanic Rituals INTRODUCTION The rituals contained herein represent a degree of candor not usually found in a magical curriculum.
