History of the Johnstones, 1191-1909, with Descriptions of Border Life
SECRETARY JOHNSTON 161 service. In 171 1 a Custom House official wrote to his superior in Edinburgh, " that in Ruthwell the people are such friends to the traffic, no one can be found to lodge a Government officer for the night." April 17, 1717, was appointed as a day of solemn fasting to avert the intended invasion of an enemy, and the threatened scarcity of bread- generally made of rye or oatmeal—owing to the severity of the weather. In 1720 we find a complaint at the meeting of the Presbytery that the Kirk was losing its power over the people, swearing—so far as the expressions in a theatre was opened "faith" and "devil" were sometimes heard ; and 1729 in Edinburgh. A minister wa3 suspended for attending it. The Scots were notably a charitable people, and, though the population of Scotland was but a million and a quarter, they supported a vagrant population 1 of 200,000 early in the eighteenth century, besides licensed bedesmen. In better times there were periodical offertories in the Churches for the benefit of seamen enslaved by the Turkish and Barbary Corsairs in the Mediterranean, in the galleys others who had their tongues cut out or been otherwise crippled ; were still in need of ransom. But the epidemics carried about by the vagrants, the dearness of provisions, added to the abolition of the Scottish Parliament, sent many landowners, particularly on the Borders, to live in England. The in and it new Marquis of Annandale began to spend most of his time London ; was on the " parlour door of his lodgings in the Abbey " of Westminster that Robert Allane, Sheriff's messenger of Annan, knocked the six knocks and affixed the document showing that he had been put to the horn, because, as Provost of Annan, he had taken no steps to arrest Galabank for debt—the application having been made by Mr Patrick Inglis, the deposed Episcopalian minister of Annan. -
XIX.—Reginald, Bishop of Bath (Hjjfugi); His Episcopate, and His Share in the Building of the Church of Wells. by the Rev. C. M
XIX.—Reginald, bishop of Bath (HJJfUgi); his episcopate, and his share in the building of the church of Wells. By the Rev. C. M. CHURCH, M.A., F.8.A., Sub-dean and Canon Residentiary of Wells. Read June 10, 1886. I VENTURE to think that bishop Eeginald Fitzjocelin deserves a place of higher honour in the history of the diocese, and of the fabric of the church of Wells, than has hitherto been accorded to him. His memory has been obscured by the traditionary fame of bishop Robert as the "author," and of bishop Jocelin as the "finisher," of the church of Wells; and the importance of his episcopate as a connecting link in the work of these two master-builders has been comparatively overlooked. The only authorities followed for the history of his episcopate have been the work of the Canon of Wells, printed by Wharton, in his Anglia Sacra, 1691, and bishop Godwin, in his Catalogue of the Bishops of England, 1601—1616. But Wharton, in his notes to the text of his author, comments on the scanty notice of bishop Reginald ;a and Archer, our local chronicler, complains of the unworthy treatment bishop Reginald had received from Godwin, also a canon of his own cathedral church.b a Reginaldi gesta historicus noster brevius quam pro viri dignitate enarravit. Wharton, Anglia Sacra, i. 871. b Historicus noster et post eum Godwinus nimis breviter gesta Reginaldi perstringunt quae pro egregii viri dignitate narrationem magis applicatam de Canonicis istis Wellensibus merita sunt.

He was very uncomfortable with the suggestion. most will feel unsure how to behave – they He didn’t bet and had never been in a bookies are like a Bishop in a Bookies! If you are not and never really wanted to and he wouldn’t convinced, just watch the way most baptism know what on earth to do if he did. He quietly parties behave. Often their behaviour irritates decided to ignore the request. On arriving at the our regular church members, but it is simply a conference there were lots of other Bishops reflection that they feel awkward and insecure and gradually they all confessed to having had – they are outside their ‘comfort zone’ and the same reaction – none of them liked the idea, don’t know what to do. none of them would have known what to do and The diocese is seeking to ‘Reach those we none of them had done it! currently don’t’.

National Archdeacons' Forum Mailing
NATIONAL ARCHDEACONS’ FORUM serving the Church of England and the Church in Wales Archdeacons’ News Bulletin no. 27 September 2017 from Norman Boakes Archdeacons’ National Executive Officer Having faith is all about having faith. I know that is a truism, but recent events have reminded us of its truth. Confronted by terrorist violence in Spain and Finland, and witnessing some of the hatred and fear in the violence at Charlottesville, it is all too easy for us to react and withdraw into ourselves. But the way of Jesus is always to go on in faith as he did, trusting in God, and learning to trust more deeply in God as we live with uncertainty, and struggle to understand and to engage with the world around us. The path of love is the only way which leads to fullness of life and true peace. As so many things begin again with the arrival of autumn days, and as so much challenges us, may we grow in faith. With best wishes and prayers, Norman [email protected] 023 8076 7735 * * * * * Archdeacons’ Training Events Bookings for all of the events below have been slow. If you wish to come, please book immediately, so we can assess whether each of these events is needed or should be cancelled. Church House Event for Archdeacons There will be another event entitled A Day at Church House on Thursday 5th October 2017. As before the aim of this day is to offer an opportunity for those archdeacons who are interested to receive briefings and updates from those with whom they most work, and to be able to ask questions and raise issues with them. -

His reasons for undertaking this work, and the objects which he had in view in writing it, are so fully developed by himself in the Introductory Chapter, that all further explanations by me on these points would l^e superfluous. It may be right to observe, that although my Father, throughout this Narrative, has invariably given to my Grandfather the title of " Sir Ralph," liy which he was most generally known, it was only on the 15th of July 1795, that the Order of the Bath, from which he derived it, was conferred upon him in acknowledo;ment of his services. -

Reports for 2020 Annual Parochial Church Meeting of Clifton Parish
Reports for 2020 Annual Parochial Church Meeting of Clifton Parish Monday 2nd November 7.30pm via Zoom Annual Report It is difficult to think back to the period April ’19 to April ’20, which should be covered by this Report, as so much has changed over the last 8 months. There will be the chance to reflect on these last few months at a later date – but thinking back to the period of this Report…… - some highlights/significant events from this period. Staff changes – Peter Hallsworth and Jonny Price moved on to take up new positions within the Church - Julian Cripps started as Churchwarden of St Mark’s – the Kelly’s moved to Beverley, where Tim took up the position of Curate at Beverley Minster – Sophie Flockton and Jo Hardie continued to settle into their roles as Children & Families Worker, and Parish Administrator respectively. Archdeacon Sarah Bullock came on a Parish Visitation in April ‘19 and was very impressed with the progress that we had been making – it turned out to be her last visitation before she moved to Lichfield Diocese. The PCC continued to work on the Vision Document – we had meetings in each of the churches of the Parish to get congregational input. The document was sent out to the Parish in early 2020, with Pastoral Care, Prayer and Small Groups & Bible Study being particular priorities at the moment. We have continued to look at mixing sermons on particular themes and topics, with readings from the Lectionary during our Sunday services – and these have been linked with study notes for individuals and small groups.
