LEXANDER FAIRWEATHER, at one time Merchant in Kirriemuir, afterwards resident at Newport, Dundee, about the year 1874, wrote this Memorandum, or History ; to which he proudly affixed the following lines : " Our name and ancestry renowned or no, Free from dishonour, 'tis our pride to show." As his memorandum exists only in manuscript, and so might easily be lost, I proprose to re-edit it for printing ; with such notes, and corrections as I can furnish. Mr. Fairweather had sound literary tastes, and was a keen archaeologist and genealogist ; upon which subjects he brought to bear a considerable amount of critical acumen. The deep interest he took in everything connected with his family and surname naturally endeared him to all his kin while, unfailing geniality and lively intelligence, made him a wide circle of attached friends, ! ; 6 I only met him once, when he visited Jersey in 1876 where I happened to be quartered, with the Royal Artillery, and where he sought me out. -

The following chapters appeared in the pages of " The Scottish Chronicle " in 1915 and 1916, and it is owing to the courtesy of the Proprietor and Editor that they are now republished in book form. Their original publication in the pages of a Church newspaper will explain something of the lines on which the book is fashioned. The articles were written to explain and to describe the origin and de\elopment of the Armorial Bearings of the ancient Dioceses of Scotland. These Coats of arms are, and have been more or less con- tinuously, used by the Scottish Episcopal Church since they came into use in the middle of the 17th century, though whether the disestablished Church has a right to their use or not is a vexed question. Fox-Davies holds that the Church of Ireland and the Episcopal Chuich in Scotland lost their diocesan Coats of Arms on disestablishment, and that the Welsh Church will suffer the same loss when the Disestablishment Act comes into operation ( Public Arms). -

The server who carries the Cross (“crucis”) in Church processions is called the “Crucifer”. Often the Crucifer is specially clothed in a decorated garment with sleeves called a “tunicle”. Why? I suppose, with the Cross carried at the head of the procession, it adds some colour, but I think there’s more to it than that. There’s something special about carrying the Cross. We vest the Crucifer with his own special garment to emphasise that particular idea. But the original Crucifer was not such a pretty sight. And I don’t mean the Emperor. Our Lord was Himself the original Crucifer In the Beginning… – the One who carried the Cross to Calvary.

A8 (WE) BACKGROUND WOMEN AND THE EPISCOPATE- A BACKGROUND NOTE Deacons and priests 1. Bishop Archibald Tait, then Bishop of London, founded the Deaconess Community of St Andrew as long ago as 1861.Those who subsequently served the Church as deaconesses held office in the Church but until the 1980s the law permitted only men to be admitted to holy orders in the Church of England. 2. The possible admission of women to each of the orders of deacon, priest and bishop was explored in a Church Assembly report of 1966. Following consultation with the dioceses the General Synod subsequently resolved in 1975 that ‘ there are no fundamental objections to the ordination of women to the priesthood ’. In the light of the diocesan consultation it decided at that stage, however, not to proceed with the necessary legislation. 3. Subsequently, separate pieces of legislation were introduced into the General Synod to enable women to become deacons and priests. The Synod gave Final Approval to a Measure to enable women to become deacons in 1985, and in 1992 to a Measure opening the priesthood to women. 4. The first women were ordained as deacons in 1987 and as priests in March 1994. By 2009 women comprised 29% of all serving clergy (around 20% of stipendiary clergy) and 47% of those recommended that year for ordination training (38% of those recommended with a view to stipendiary ministry). In mid 2010 there were also 14 female archdeacons (13%) and 4 female cathedral deans (9%). 5. In removing the legal obstacles to women becoming priests the General Synod provided formal arrangements designed to make provision for those in the Church who could not accept this as a legitimate development. -
