John Trillek, bishop of Hereford, Hereford Cathedral (photo.: Hereford Cathedral Library and Archives) (reproduced by permission of the Dean and Chapter of Hereford Cathedral) The Tomb and Seal of John Trillek, Bishop of Hereford: some comparative thoughts Elizabeth New This essay seeks to consider the relationship between individual commemorated by the effigy as a the monumental brass of John Trillek1 and his member of the episcopate, which may be read episcopal seal of dignity.

    “JUST AS THE PRIESTS HAVE THEIR WIVES”: PRIESTS AND CONCUBINES IN ENGLAND, 1375-1549 Janelle Werner A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Advisor: Professor Judith M. Bennett Reader: Professor Stanley Chojnacki Reader: Professor Barbara J. Harris Reader: Cynthia B. Herrup Reader: Brett Whalen © 2009 Janelle Werner ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT JANELLE WERNER: “Just As the Priests Have Their Wives”: Priests and Concubines in England, 1375-1549 (Under the direction of Judith M. Bennett) This project – the first in-depth analysis of clerical concubinage in medieval England – examines cultural perceptions of clerical sexual misbehavior as well as the lived experiences of priests, concubines, and their children. Although much has been written on the imposition of priestly celibacy during the Gregorian Reform and on its rejection during the Reformation, the history of clerical concubinage between these two watersheds has remained largely unstudied. My analysis is based primarily on archival records from Hereford, a diocese in the West Midlands that incorporated both English- and Welsh-speaking parishes and combines the quantitative analysis of documentary evidence with a close reading of pastoral and popular literature. Drawing on an episcopal visitation from 1397, the act books of the consistory court, and bishops’ registers, I argue that clerical concubinage occurred as frequently in England as elsewhere in late medieval Europe and that priests and their concubines were, to some extent, socially and culturally accepted in late medieval England.

    “Between the Creeks” Gwen Pettit This is a compilation of weekly newspaper columns on local history written by Gwen Pettit during 1986-1992 for the Allen Leader and the Allen American in Allen, Texas. Most of these articles were initially written and published, then run again later with changes and additions made. I compiled these articles from the Allen American on microfilm at the Allen Public Library and from the Allen Leader newspapers provided by Mike Williams. Then, I typed them into the computer and indexed them in 2006-07. Lois Curtis and then Rick Mann, Managing Editor of the Allen American gave permission for them to be reprinted on April 30, 2007, [email protected]. Please, contact me to obtain a free copy on a CD. I have given a copy of this to the Allen Public Library, the Harrington Library in Plano, the McKinney Library, the Allen Independent School District and the Lovejoy School District. Tom Keener of the Allen Heritage Guild has better copies of all these photographs and is currently working on an Allen history book. Keener offices at the Allen Public Library. Gwen was a longtime Allen resident with an avid interest in this area’s history. Some of her sources were: Pioneering in North Texas by Capt. Roy and Helen Hall, The History of Collin County by Stambaugh & Stambaugh, The Brown Papers by George Pearis Brown, The Peters Colony of Texas by Seymour V. Conner, Collin County census & tax records and verbal history from local long-time residents of the county. She does not document all of her sources.

  • The Southern Defences of Rochester Revisited

    The Southern Defences of Rochester Revisited

    The southern defences of Rochester revisited Early in 1344, the king was presented with a petition from the prior and convent of Rochester. The monks had come up with a plan to reconfigure the defences around the south-east side of the city. Since the city belonged to the king, they needed the king's permission; but that was not all they wanted. The king, they suggested, should give them the existing city ditch, outside the existing city wall, between the east gate of the city towards Canterbury (i.e. towards the east) and the prior's gate towards the south. If the king was willing to do that, the monks, in return, would build a new city wall, at their own expense, on their own land, outside the old ditch (which they intended to fill up), and dig a new ditch, outside the new wall; and they would undertake, for themselves and their successors for ever, to keep the new wall in repair. The monks' petition (doc 1) does not survive in the original,* but the gist of it is known from three documents which do. These are they: (doc 2) a letter from the king to the constable of the castle, John de Cobham, dated 28 Apr 1344, ordering him to convene a jury of citizens to inquire into the matter; (doc 3) the report of this inquiry, dated 12 May 1344, to the effect that the jurors see no reason why the king should not approve the monks' proposal; (doc 4) an open letter from the king, dated 23 Apr [sic]† 1344, letting it be known that he has given the monks permission to proceed.

My motives for publishing this volume of Travels, will be best explained by a detail of the circumstances which gave rise to my journey to Morocco. In 1805, I was serving in the capacity of Physician to His Majesty's Forces, at the Depot Hospital in the Isle of Wight; whence, by dexterous management of the Army Medical Board[*], I was removed, and placed upon half-pay, in June of that year. At this period, it occurred to Mr. Turnbull, Chairman of the Committee of Merchants trading to the Levant, that it would be of advantage to the public, were the offices of Garrison Surgeon of Gibraltar, and Inspecting Medical Officer of the ships doing quarantine, which were then united in the person of Mr.

    6th February 2021 Dear all You may have heard the news that the Bishop of Lincoln, the Rt Revd Christopher Lowson, has finally had his suspension removed, and can return to his role as diocesan bishop. The Church Times reported that Bishop Lowson has accepted a formal rebuke for the mishandling of a safeguarding disclosure, and has apologised unreservedly for his “error of judgement”. The rebuke will stay on his file, and he has agreed to retrain in safeguarding matters. There has never been any suggestion that Bishop Lowson was responsible for any act of abuse. In a statement issued on Monday, he said: “I offer an unreserved apology for my error of judgement in the way I handled a disclosure about a member of clergy in the Lincoln diocese in early 2019. I regret the way I handled the matter, not least because I have always sought to take safeguarding matters extremely seriously.” What has been regretted by all involved is the length of time that it has taken to resolve the matter – 20 months. To put that in perspective, he was suspended before I took up my role here. I met with Bishop Christopher just after I was appointed, and was impressed by his commitment to good safeguarding practices. It is quite right that all clergy are expected to act professionally and appropriately, and that there should be some sanctions when they don’t. But it is generally accepted that the Clergy Discipline Measure (CDM) is not fit for purpose, being unwieldy, very time-consuming, and incredibly destructive in its process.
