1 from 'Education in Aberdeenshire Before
From ‘Education in Aberdeenshire before 1872 I Simpson, University of London 1947 For a long time after the reformation, many rural parishes lacked even a minister or reader not to speak of a schoolmaster. A Parliamentary Act of 1633 required the heritors of every parish to establish a school – many disregarded it. Further Act 1646 brought more pressure – still some evaded. Act of 1696 empowered Presbyteries in face of obstinate heritors to apply to Commissioners of Supply, who had power to establish a school and fix a salary of at least 100marks (?) 1598 In Methlick – At a visitation where officials of the parish kirk were examined no reference to a parish school or schoolmaster but “the catalogue off the eldaris and deaconis”. 3 names are prefixed by ‘Mr’, in those days always an academic, never a country title. Notes from Tarves School Log Books 1873 October 10th Principal Teacher Mr D M L Salmond M.A. Attendance 40 increased to 50 next day. November 6th Thanksgiving Day for the harvest consequently the school was closed. November 14th Fair progress made during the past week especially in writing, the pupils being given to understand that there must be neither blots nor miss-spellings in their copy books. The second class is being drilled in grammar in which great deficiency had been shown. December 29th Start of Christmas holidays. During the quarter now closed 115 pupils (1 teacher, 2 monitors) have been enrolled and the average daily attendance has been 88 187/1760. During the quarter Nelson’s Royal Readers were gradually introduces as text books. -

National Sample from the 1851 Census of Great Britain List of Sample Clusters
NATIONAL SAMPLE FROM THE 1851 CENSUS OF GREAT BRITAIN LIST OF SAMPLE CLUSTERS The listing is arranged in four columns, and is listed in cluster code order, but other orderings are available. The first column gives the county code; this code corresponds with the county code used in the standardised version of the data. An index of the county codes forms Appendix 1 The second column gives the cluster type. These cluster types correspond with the stratification parameter used in sampling and have been listed in Background Paper II. Their definitions are as follows: 11 English category I 'Communities' under 2,000 population 12 Scottish category I 'Communities' under 2,000 population 21 Category IIA and VI 'Towns' and Municipal Boroughs 26 Category IIB Parliamentary Boroughs 31 Category III 'Large non-urban communities' 41 Category IV Residual 'non-urban' areas 51 Category VII Unallocable 'urban' areas 91 Category IX Institutions The third column gives the cluster code numbers. This corresponds to the computing data set name, except that in the computing data set names the code number is preceded by the letters PAR (e.g. PAR0601). The fourth column gives the name of the cluster community. It should be noted that, with the exception of clusters coded 11,12 and 91, the cluster unit is the enumeration district and not the whole community. Clusters coded 11 and 12, however, correspond to total 'communities' (see Background Paper II). Clusters coded 91 comprise twenty successive individuals in every thousand, from a list of all inmates of institutions concatenated into a continuous sampling frame; except that 'families' are not broken, and where the twenty individuals come from more than one institution, each institution forms a separate cluster. -

On the Study and Promotion of Drama in Scottish Gaelic Sìm Innes
Editorial: On the study and promotion of drama in Scottish Gaelic Sìm Innes (University of Glasgow) and Michelle Macleod (University of Aberdeen), Guest-Editors We are very grateful to the editors of the International Journal of Scottish Theatre and Screen for allowing us the opportunity to guest-edit a special volume about Gaelic drama. The invitation came after we had organised two panels on Gaelic drama at the biennial Gaelic studies conference, Rannsachadh na Gàidhlig, at the University Edinburgh 2014. We asked the contributors to those two panels to consider developing their papers and submit them to peer review for this special edition: each paper was read by both a Gaelic scholar and a theatre scholar and we are grateful to them for their insight and contributions. Together the six scholarly essays and one forum interview in this issue are the single biggest published work on Gaelic drama to date and go some way to highlighting the importance of this genre within Gaelic society. In 2007 Michelle Macleod and Moray Watson noted that ‘few studies of modern Gaelic drama’ (Macleod and Watson 2007: 280) exist (prior to that its sum total was an unpublished MSc dissertation by Antoinette Butler in 1994 and occasional reviews): Macleod continued to make the case in her axiomatically entitled work ‘Gaelic Drama: The Forgotten Genre in Gaelic Literary Studies’. (Dymock and McLeod 2011) More recently scholarship on Gaelic drama has begun to emerge and show, despite the fact that it had hitherto been largely neglected in academic criticism, that there is much to be gained from in-depth study of the genre. -
