Littlewood Secretary-Treasurer TO FORMER STUDENTS AND FRIENDS OF ROSE PHELPS: I am sure that all of you will be saddened to know that Rose Rielps is seriously ill of cancer. She had planned to attend my retirement festivities but wrote that she had to go to the hospital instead. While there she called me and I learned how serious her illness was. Knowing that I would be out of the country teaching for two years in Tehran, Iran, I flew out to Phoenix to see her for three days. She was then back in the heeilth center of the Orsuige- wood Baptist Retirement Center where she and May Smith shsure en apartment. That is also where her sister, Mrs. Alice Culver lives. Rose was strong enough for me to visit her for short periods several times a day. She had wanted to send a taped message to all of you to be shared at the Alumni meeting in New York. However, this has turned out to be too great an effort for her. She is failing rapidly. She is very proud of the things each of you are accomplishing and hopes that your leadership will help to keep the profession moving forward in the years to come. She sends her love and greet- ings to all of you. I am sure she wovild be glad to hear from you.

DOI: 5 The Clergy at the Courts of George I and George II STEPHEN TAYLOR In the years between the Reformation and the revolution of 1688 the court lay at the very heart of English religious life. Court bishops played an important role as royal councillors in matters concerning both church and commonwealth. 1 Royal chaplaincies were sought after, both as important steps on the road of prefer- ment and as positions from which to influence religious policy.2 Printed court sermons were a prominent literary genre, providing not least an important forum for debate about the nature and character of the English Reformation.
