  • Mark Ferguson Jane Haining Speech 2021
    HOLOCAUST MEMORIAL EVENT 2021 – Mark Ferguson Jane Haining was born in Dunscore, Dumfriesshire on Lochead Farm in 1897. A very intelligent and able young women Jane came to our town of Paisley to work for J.P Coats threadmill, firstly as a Clerk then promoted to Secretary (A senior post in the Mill). Following this Jane spent some time in Glasgow and Manchester before taking up a position as Matron in a girl’s home at the Scottish Mission to the Jews in Budapest. When the NAZIS turned their attention to Hungary Jane was asked to return to Scotland, however she replied “if these children need me in the days of sunshine, how much more do they need me in the days of darkness?”. Jane was later to be arrested by the Gestapo and was charged on 8 counts: That she had worked among the Jews. That she had wept when putting yellow stars on the girls. That she had dismissed her housekeeper, who was an Aryan. That she had listened to the news broadcasts of the BBC. That she had many British visitors. That she was active in politics. That she visited British prisoners of war. That she sent them parcels. She admitted to all the charges except being active in politics. Jane was amongst the first transportations from Hungary to Auschwitz/Birkenau in May 1944. On arrival she was stripped, tattooed with the number 79467 - at the age of 47, disinfected, hair shaved, before being issued with striped clothing and clogs. In Janes last letter to the head of the mission dated a few days before she died referenced her fondness for her beloved Dunscore stating “even here on the way to heaven are mountains”.

Here is the result; the Glass Stories Trail. It is a circular route and you can start the trail at any point and visit as much or as little of it as you like. There are also suggestions of additional diversions that you can take away from the trail to see other things that, if incorporated into the trail route, would have made it a bit too big to do comfortably.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 2 Abstract Abstract This thesis considers the Chinese Blueshirts organisation from 1932 to 1938 in the context of Chiang Kaishek's attempts to unify and modernise China. It sets out the terms of comparison between the Blueshirts and Fascist organisations in Europe and Japan, indicating where there were similarities and differences of ideology and practice, as well as establishing links between them. It then analyses the reasons for the appeal of Fascist organisations and methods to Chiang Kaishek. Following an examination of global factors, the emergence of the Blueshirts from an internal point of view is considered. As well as assuming many of the characteristics of a Fascist organisation, especially according to the Japanese model and to some extent to the European model, the Blueshirts were in many ways typical of the power-cliques which were already an integral part of Chinese politics.

  • Real Life Stories Scottish Missionary Who Paid the Ultimate Price
    Real Life Stories Scottish Missionary Who Paid the Ultimate Price ! Jane Mathison Haining - Scottish Missionary The story of Jane Haining is the story of a Scottish woman who was deeply committed to her faith and who sacrificed her life for her ideals. It was her calling that took her away from her native Scotland, first to Budapest, and finally to Auschwitz, where she perished. Jane Haining, a Church of Scotland missionary who was forced into slave labour, died in Auschwitz in 1944, aged 47, after refusing to abandon the Jewish girls in her care at a home for Jewish girls run by the Scottish Mission in Budapest, Hungary. Scottish Missionaries were advised to return home from Europe but Jane declined. There were 315 pupils including 48 boarders and Jane was determined to remain to look after them. She refused, and wrote: “If these children need me in days of sunshine, how much more do they need me in days of darkness.” The papers telling the extraordinarily moving story of prisoner 79467 were found in the World Mission Council’s archives at the Kirk’s head quarters in George Street in Edinburgh. They also contain a translation of the last letter she wrote two days before she died and correspondence showing the efforts by Bishop Laszlo Ravasz to try to secure her release. Miss Haining, as she was known to her girls, was born in 1897 and grew up near Dunscore in Dumfriesshire. She worked as a secretary at a threadmaker company in Paisley for 10 years before she moved to Budapest in 1932 to work as a matron in the Jewish Mission School.

  • Link to British Responses Cards
    British Responses to Nazism & the Holocaust The England football team In May 1938, the England football team went on a tour of Europe. The tour began with a game against Germany in Berlin. This was at a time when the British government was following a policy of appeasement towards Nazi Germany, i.e. Britain was trying to have a friendly relationship with Hitler in order to avoid war. Stanley Matthews was the star player in the England team. He later described what happened before the game: “An FA official visited the dressing room and instructed the players to give the Nazi salute – an order which caused everyone of us to stop what we were doing and look up with some alarm.” The FA official explained that many Germans had been offended when the British athletics team had not given the Nazi salute at the Olympic Games in Berlin in 1936. The England players gave the Nazi salute. After the war, Stanley Matthews said “Whenever I glance through my scrapbook and gaze on that infamous picture of the England team lining up like a bunch of robots I feel a little ashamed.” THINGS TO DISCUSS Did the team have any choice whether to make the salute or not? How did the team react to the request? What does this tell us about their knowledge of the regime? Sportsmen and sportswomen can sometimes become involved in politics – even if they do not want to. Should we expect sportspeople to protest when they believe something is wrong? British Responses to Nazism & the Holocaust Derby County Football Club Derby County were one of the leading teams in English football in the 1930s.
