  • Land in Oxford and Great Marlow, Bucks., Bequeathed by John Browne (Master 1745–64), 1755-1971
    1 UNIV ONLINE CATALOGUES UC:E23 - LAND IN OXFORD AND GREAT MARLOW, BUCKS., BEQUEATHED BY JOHN BROWNE (MASTER 1745–64), 1755-1971 John Browne, from Marton, Yorkshire, came up to University College in May 1704, and was elected a scholar in November 1705. He was then elected a Skirlaw Fellow on 23 August 1711. As a Fellow, Browne held many of the major offices of the College, in particular acting as Bursar during the 1720s. During the great Mastership dispute at the College of the 1720s, when two Fellows both claimed to be Master, Browne supported Thomas Cockman, the ultimate victor. In 1738 Brown was appointed Archdeacon of Northampton, and he resigned his Fellowship in February 1738/9. In 1745, however, he returned to University College on being elected Master. Brown remained Master, still retaining his archdeaconry, until his death on 7 August 1764. He had served as Vice-Chancellor from 1750–3. In addition to the preceding posts, Brown had also been vicar of Long Compton, Warks, for half a century, and in 1743 he was appointed a canon of Peterborough Cathedral. Browne had prospered in his ecclesiastical career, and he remained a bachelor. On his death in 1764, therefore, Browne proved a major benefactor to his old College. Not only did he bequeath his extensive library to the College for the use of successive Masters, but he also left a house at 88 High Street Oxford (now the site of Durham Buildings) and some property at Great Marlow, Buckinghamshire, to trustees, both to endow new undergraduate scholarships, but also to augment the stipends of existing scholarships whose value had declined with time.

  • Church Bells. Part 1. Rev. Robert Eaton Batty
    CHURCH BELLS BY THE REV. ROBERT EATON BATTY, M.A. The Church Bell — what a variety of associations does it kindle up — how closely is it connected with the most cherished interests of mankind! And not only have we ourselves an interest in it, but it must have been equally interesting to those who were before us, and will pro- bably be so to those who are yet to come. It is the Churchman's constant companion — at its call he first enters the Church, then goes to the Daily Liturgy, to his Con- firmation, and his first Communion. Is he married? — the Church bells have greeted him with a merry peal — has he passed to his rest? — the Church bells have tolled out their final note. From a very early period there must have been some contrivance, whereby the people might know when to assemble themselves together, but some centuries must have passed before bells were invented for a religious purpose. Trumpets preceded bells. The great Day of Atonement amongst the Jews was ushered in with the sound of the trumpet; and Holy Writ has stamped a solemn and lasting character upon this instrument, when it informs us that "The Trumpet shall sound and the dead shall be raised." The Prophet Hosea was com- manded to "blow the cornet in Gibeah and the trumpet in Ramah;" and Joel was ordered to "blow the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm." The cornet and trumpet seem to be identical, as in the Septuagint both places are expressed by σαλπισατε σαλπιγγι.

It seems like only yesterday I was welcoming you back after Christmas. The children have continued to enjoy their learning this term and have made good progress in all areas of their learning. It has been wonderful to see them all embrace the Diamond Power challenges and develop their independence. Well done everyone! The Ladybirds have finished their Fairy Tale topic this week with some wonderful learning opportunities around the story of ‘The Three Billy Goats Gruff’. I particularly enjoyed playing the part of the goat trip trapping over the bridge in the hall! Hopefully you all received your next set of WOW stickers in your child’s book bag today. We would like to invite the Ladybird parents to a ‘Stay and Play’ session on Monday 27th March at 2pm. During this afternoon you will have time to look through your child’s learning journey and there will be time for you to contribute to this. Woodland Class enjoyed learning about the postal system this week, it was interesting to see how long the letters we had posted took to arrive and the different marks that were printed on the envelopes. The children also enjoyed learning about Safer Internet Day on Tuesday and produced some excellent work to show how they can stay safe online.
