The competitions were attended by many Wirral Schools and in the football we faired very well, coming runners up to South Wirral in the final 1-0. It was the only goal conceded and out of the 12 competing teams an excellent achievement. The Volleyball was an excellent spectacle and a very well organised competition. Both our teams played very well, with the Year 8 boys winning 4 and losing 2 games and the Year 10’s in a difficult competition, having very close matches winning 3 and losing 3. The day saw many different events take place all across the park and culminated in the evening with the Torch relay itself.

But his letter had no effect. The Plays were performed. Grindal's letter is one of several relating to Chester's Plays that have been copied into a book of the letters sent to or by Christopher Goodman, a leading figure in the Reformation, who had been born in Chester and returned to his native Cheshire in the late 1560s or early 1570s, as we shall see. The volume of his letters is now among the Plas Power manuscripts in the Denbighshire County Record Office at Ruthin. My purpose in this paper is to look at a subsequent letter in that collection that Christopher Goodman, Robert Rogerson and John Lane sent to Grindal by a certain 'R.

    A HISTORY AND GENEALOGY OF THE WARREN FAMILY IN NORMANDY, GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND, FRANCE, HOLLAND, TUSCANY, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, ETc. (A.D. 912-1902) WITH NUMEROUS PEDIGREES BY REV. THOMAS WARREN F. R. S. A. IRELAND "Those who do not look upon themselves as a link connecting the past with the future, do not perform their duty to the world."-DANIEL WEBSTER PRINTED FOR PRIVATE CIRCULATION £All riglzts reserved] A HISTORY AND GENEALOGY OF THE WARREN FAMILY To THE ~IEMBERS OF THE VARIO US BRANCHES OF THE ANCIENT AND NOBLE FAMILY OF WARREN AND THOSE RELATED TO THEM BY THE COMPILER THOMAS WAR REN PREFACE SOME years ago, having retired from professional duties owing to failing health, I began to trace my own family pedigree, without any intention of writing a book; but finding the study of Genealogy so fascinating, I was led to extend my researches to other branches of the old and honoured name of Warren. The materials I have collected, after long and arduous labour, are considered by friends to be worthy of record as well as useful and interesting, not only to those of the name and kindred now living, but important as a basis to work from for others who may afterwards wish to enter upon this field of research and add to the information already acquired. Hence the volume now submitted to my readers. In this work, which has been to me a labour of love, I have received much sympathy and valuable assistance from members of this great and widely-dispersed family, to whom I return my grateful thanks.

    Leeds Studies in English Article: Lawrence M. Clopper, 'The Rogers' Description of the Chester Plays', Leeds Studies in English, n.s. 7, (1974), 63-94 Permanent URL: https://ludos.leeds.ac.uk:443/R/-?func=dbin-jump- full&object_id=121840&silo_library=GEN01 Leeds Studies in English School of English University of Leeds http://www.leeds.ac.uk/lse THE ROGERS' DESCRIPTION OF THE CHESTER PLAYS By LAWRENCE M. CLOPPER The Rogers' Brevaryes are early seventeenth-century histories of the city of Chester and of particular interest to scholars of the medieval drama because they include the earliest and most extensive descriptions of that city's medieval plays. The Brevaryes, the accounts of guild expenditures and the stage directions in the texts are our principal sources of information about the production of the plays; however, the Brevaryes and the stage directions sometimes seem contradictory and the guild accounts are often vague or inconclusive. When one is confronted by these apparent contradictions, one is inclined perhaps to dismiss parts of the Rogers' descriptions on the grounds that they were written down some 35 years after the last performance, whereas the guild accounts and the texts reflect more closely the actual conditions of performance. The Brevaryes are, none the less, contemporary or near-contemporary documents and should not be dismissed unless there is clear proof of their inaccuracy.
