Only a few small notes this month. First of all, this issue should contain the warrant roster as of Crown June King’s College 14th (Bjornsborg) Tourney in early May 2003. (A few heraldic offices have or will-have changed hands since then; those are - CoH meeting for not reflected in this version.)

If you know of any incorrect information, such as a change in address or office, please get the information to July Coronation (TBA) both Star and myself as quickly as possible. 12th - CoH meeting for ILoI 2003-05 Secondly, I have included ads for both Known World Heraldic Symposium, and our own Ansteorran Heraldic and Scribal Symposium. Both are well worth attending! Lastly, a repeat of my request from last month: I would like to put out a general request for a deputy — someone who is interested in learning how the Gazette is put together. I’m not planning to step down any Ansteorran Heraldry Website time soon, but would prefer to have someone available who knows how everything works should an emer- http://heraldry.ansteorra.org/ gency arise.
