OGDENiDEN 1 j THE LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA LOS ANGELES OFFICIAL CATALOGUE OF THE Royal United Service Museum, WHITEHALL, S.W. COMPILED BY Lieut.-Colonel Sir ARTHUR LEETHAM, F.S.A. (Curator). FOURTH EDITION. Printed for the Council of THE ROYAL UNITED SERVICE INSTITUTION by J. J. KELIHER & Co., LIMITED, Craven House, Kingsway, and Marshalsea Works, Southwark. 1914 PRICE ONE SHILLING. to Ufa PREFACE.131* In the Compilation of this Catalogue I have endeavoured to provide, in as concise a form as possible, a book which will be of general historical interest to the many thousands of Visitors who annually come to see the Museum. Having regard to the nature of the Museum (especially the vast field of Naval and Military History which it covers), the limited space, and the consequent necessity of having at times to' remove certain objects in order to exhibit others, it was found quite impos- sible to classify the numerous exhibits under groups or collections : but the index, which has been added, is of an exhaustive nature and will assist the Visitor in readily finding the objects of special interest. I would point out that the value of a work of this kind lies in its accuracy, and should any mistakes have crept into its pages in the course of compilation and printing, I hope they will be pointed out to me, that they may be rectified in future editions. In the first edition of this Catalogue I was greatly indebted to the assistance which I received from Mr. B. E. Sargeaunt, formerly Assistant Secretary of the Institution, and now Treasurer to the Government of the Isle of Man. Commander W. F. Caborne, C.B., R.N.R., has also rendered me much valuable help in describings the! Naval Exhibits, and Mr. A. N. A. Pinhey, the Assistant Secretary and Curator, has assisted me generally.

The Royal United Service Museum, which is under the control of the Council of the Royal United Service Institution, was founded His 1 1 by Majesty King William IV. on 25th June, 83 , it then being known as "The Naval and Military Library and Museum." Its home was originally Vanbrugh House, situated in Whitehall Yard, a house designed and built by Sir John Vanbrugh out of the ruins of that portion of Whitehall which was destroyed by fire. In 1833 the Government, at the express instance of the Sovereign, and with a due consideration of the public utility and benefit likely to result from the establishment of the Institution, were pleased to grant it the use of a more spacious building. This consisted of the former office of the Board of Works situated in Inner Scotland Yard the two buildings being connected by a passage which led to a small house, on the site of which the lecture theatre was built in 1849-50. In 1895 the Museum was transferred to its present building, which is the Banqueting House of Old Whitehall Palace, a building sentimentally and historically connected with the life of the English nation. In the reign of James I., the old Palace of White- hall had become so ruinous, the greater part having been destroyed by fire in 1 589, that it was determined to rebuild it, and the splendid structure which now contains the Museum is a part of the original design by Inigo Jones, to whom the building was entrusted. Horace Walpole says : "The intended Palace of Whitehall, if it had been carried out, would have been the most truly magnificent and beautiful fabric of any of the kind in Europe." The Banquet- ing House, so called from having been placed on the site of the apartments called by that name erected by Queen Elizabeth, was commenced in 1619, and completed in 1622, at a cost of about 1 6,000, the stone for the building having been drawn from the quarries at Portland. Charles I. commissioned Rubens to paint the it is ceiling ; divided by a rich frame-work of gilded mouldings into nine compartments, with allegorical subjects. The centre one the of I. represents apotheosis James ; on either side of the ceiling are oblong panels expressing the Peace and Plenty, Harmony and Happiness, which, according to the painter's fancy, signalised the I. in reign of James ; and the other compartments Rubens* patron, Charles, is introduced in scenes intended to represent his birth, and his coronation as King of Scotland ; while the oval compart- ments at the corners are intended, by allegorical figures, to show the triumph of Virtue over Vice. Rubens was paid by Charles I. the sum of three thousand pounds and received the honour of knight- hood for his work, in which, according to Sir Godfrey Kneller, he was assisted by Jordaens. The sketches were made in England, probably on the spot, but the actual painting was executed and completed in Antwerp in the year 1635. The Ceiling has been five times restored. In the reign of George II. by Kent; in 1785 by Cipriani; in 1837 under the direction of Sir Robert Smirke (when the entire building was 1 Sir restored at a cost of 5,000 by John Soane) ; again at a later in 1 1 date in the 1 9th century ; and finally the years 906 and 907. In July, 1 906, by direction of the First Commissioner of His Majesty's Office of Works, a close inspection was made of the Roof and of the Ceiling, with a view to all necessary repairs being carried out. THE CEILING OF THE BANQUETING HOUSE, painted by Rubens, and completed in 1635. (Frtm thi Engravinf 1) GrUilin.) T The oil-paintings, in places, were scarcely discernible from the floor owing to their dirty condition and to their uneven surface (the pictures were held up at intervals by canvas bands and this caused an irregular surface resembling that of a quilt). The light, too, acting on the uneven surface, gave the paintings the appearance of being damp. The pictures were suspended by iron hangers screwed to the tie beams of the roof : these iron hangers were locked into iron plates fixed on to the picture frames and on to the battens across them. The hangers were at intervals of about four or five feet. The backs of the picture frames were covered with an old-fashioned oilcloth to keep the paintings free from dust. The pictures were attached to the frames and battens at the back by pieces of canvas twisted round them at intervals of about three feet. Upon the report being referred from the Office of Works to the Treasury, a sum of money was granted in November, 1 906, for the restoration of the Rubens paintings and for the repairing regilding, and renovation of the ceiling. The Museum was closed to the Public, and a scaffolding, extending to the Ceiling, was erected from the floor in November, 1 906. When the paintings were taken down from the Ceiling, upon examination, some of them were found to be in very bad condition, the canvas in many cases being broken away from the attachments on the frames. Before taking the paintings off the frames, they were properly cleaned and made pliable, and covered over with tissue paper. After being taken off the old frames they were found to be attached to another canvas. On the back of this second canvas was a coating of what appeared to be glue and finely powdered glass, evidently put on as an attempt to stiffen the paintings and to prevent the sagging which was so visible from the floor. This old lining canvas was taken off and the backs of the paintings were scraped to remove all foreign substances which had adhered to them ; the canvas was very carefully repaired, and the paintings, each one going through the same process, were carefully rolled up for safety whilst the frames were being repaired. When the old frames were exposed, they were found to be in a very dilapidated and worm-eaten condition, but it was decided that it would be better to retain them than make new ones, owing to the difficulty in procuring properly seasoned wood for such large frames. The old frames were carefully repaired and the worm-eaten parts were, painted with a solution to kill the worm in the wood, and new timber intermediates were put in to strengthen the old wood. Owing to the damage done to the paintings by the original method of attachment to the frames, it was deemed advisable, after careful consideration, that they should be fixed in a different way, so as to obviate the sagging. One of the oval frames was prepared accordingly in the following manner : The frame was repaired and strengthened as before described, and the face planed down to a level surface. Laminated boarding half-an-inch thick and consisting of five pieces of wood, the outside boards being maple, was then screwed on to the frame and the intermediates with brass screws. These screws were countersunk and covered with a stopping used by picture restorers. Where the joints of the laminated boarding butted together, similar stopping was used and the face was carefully sandpapered until a smooth surface was obtained. This boarding was then covered with a strong canvas pasted down to it by means of hot irons, the canvas being then nailed to the edges of the frame.

  • Design of Neck Protection Guards for Cricket Helmets
    Design of Neck Protection Guards for Cricket Helmets T. Y. Pang a and P. Dabnichki School of Engineering, RMIT University, Bundoora Campus East, Bundoora VIC 3083, Australia Keywords: Cricket, Helmet, Neck, Guard, Design. Abstract: Cricket helmet safeguards have come under scrutiny due to the lack of protection at the basal skull and neck region, which resulted in the fatal injury of one Australian cricketer in 2014. Current cricket helmet design has a number of shortcomings, the major one being the lack of a neck guard. This paper introduces a novel neck protection guard that provides protection to a cricket helmet wearer’s head and neck, without restricting head movements and obstructing the airflow, but achieving a minimal weight. Adopting an engineering design approach, the concept was generated using computer aided design software. The design was performed through several iterative processes to achieve an optimal solution. A prototype was then created using rapid prototyping technology and tested experimentally to meet the objectives and design constraints. The experimental results showed that the novel neck protection guard reduced by more than 50% the head acceleration values in the drop test in accordance to Australian Standard AS/NZS 4499.1-3:1997 protective headgear for cricket. Further experimental and computer simulation analysis are recommended to select suitable materials for the neck guards with satisfactory levels of protection and impact-attenuation capabilities for users. 1 INTRODUCTION head and facial injuries (Ranson et al. 2013).

  • Rules and Options
    Rules and Options The author has attempted to draw as much as possible from the guidelines provided in the 5th edition Players Handbooks and Dungeon Master's Guide. Statistics for weapons listed in the Dungeon Master's Guide were used to develop the damage scales used in this book. Interestingly, these scales correspond fairly well with the values listed in the d20 Modern books. Game masters should feel free to modify any of the statistics or optional rules in this book as necessary. It is important to remember that Dungeons and Dragons abstracts combat to a degree, and does so more than many other game systems, in the name of playability. For this reason, the subtle differences that exist between many firearms will often drop below what might be called a "horizon of granularity." In D&D, for example, two pistols that real world shooters could spend hours discussing, debating how a few extra ounces of weight or different barrel lengths might affect accuracy, or how different kinds of ammunition (soft-nosed, armor-piercing, etc.) might affect damage, may be, in game terms, almost identical. This is neither good nor bad; it is just the way Dungeons and Dragons handles such things. Who can use firearms? Firearms are assumed to be martial ranged weapons. Characters from worlds where firearms are common and who can use martial ranged weapons will be proficient in them. Anyone else will have to train to gain proficiency— the specifics are left to individual game masters. Optionally, the game master may also allow characters with individual weapon proficiencies to trade one proficiency for an equivalent one at the time of character creation (e.g., monks can trade shortswords for one specific martial melee weapon like a war scythe, rogues can trade hand crossbows for one kind of firearm like a Glock 17 pistol, etc.).

  • The Ionian Islands in British Official Discourses; 1815-1864
    1 Constructing Ionian Identities: The Ionian Islands in British Official Discourses; 1815-1864 Maria Paschalidi Department of History University College London A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy to University College London 2009 2 I, Maria Paschalidi, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 3 Abstract Utilising material such as colonial correspondence, private papers, parliamentary debates and the press, this thesis examines how the Ionian Islands were defined by British politicians and how this influenced various forms of rule in the Islands between 1815 and 1864. It explores the articulation of particular forms of colonial subjectivities for the Ionian people by colonial governors and officials. This is set in the context of political reforms that occurred in Britain and the Empire during the first half of the nineteenth-century, especially in the white settler colonies, such as Canada and Australia. It reveals how British understandings of Ionian peoples led to complex negotiations of otherness, informing the development of varieties of colonial rule. Britain suggested a variety of forms of government for the Ionians ranging from authoritarian (during the governorships of T. Maitland, H. Douglas, H. Ward, J. Young, H. Storks) to representative (under Lord Nugent, and Lord Seaton), to responsible government (under W. Gladstone’s tenure in office). All these attempted solutions (over fifty years) failed to make the Ionian Islands governable for Britain. The Ionian Protectorate was a failed colonial experiment in Europe, highlighting the difficulties of governing white, Christian Europeans within a colonial framework.

  • THE JACOB RIFLE and ITS EXPLODING PROJECTILE an Approach to Evaluating Historically Attributed Firearms and a Request for ASAC Help
    THE JACOB RIFLE AND ITS EXPLODING PROJECTILE An Approach to Evaluating Historically Attributed Firearms and a Request for ASAC Help By Bob Carlson Figure 1: The Jacob rifle with bayonet, by Swinburn & Son. One of the most intriguing, unusual firearms, perhaps worthy of inclusion in Winant’s “Firearms Curiosa”, is the Jacob rifle! Be- sides having double 24-inch barrels, as well as a single barreled variant, it fired both solid and explosive bullets, designed to blow up mutinous Indian artillery caissons at long range, perhaps up to 1,400 yards (or as some feel, to the 2,000 yards to which its 5-inch- long ladder sight is graduated )! The appearance of a twenty-four- inch double barreled, deeply rifled firearm mounted with a huge bayonet with its 30-inch blade and Scottish-highland type cut-out basket guard, is bizarre and incongruous indeed (Figure 1). The “Perfected” Jacob Rifle The final design of this very unusual and innovative English rifle was completed by the quixotic General (then Major) John Ja- cob (Figure 2) in 1857, by the time of the Indian Mutiny to arm Figure 2.

  • The Battle of Sobraon*
    B.A. 1ST YEAR IIND SEMESTER Topic : *The Battle of Sobraon* The Battle of Sobraon was fought on 10 February 1846, between the forces of the East India Company and the Sikh Khalsa Army, the army of the Sikh Empire of the Punjab. The Sikhs were completely defeated, making this the decisive battle of the First Anglo-Sikh War. The First Anglo-Sikh war began in late 1845, after a combination of increasing disorder in the Sikh empire following the death of Ranjit Singh in 1839 and provocations by the British East India Company led to the Sikh Khalsa Army invading British territory. The British had won the first two major battles of the war through a combination of luck, the steadfastness of British and Bengal units and equivocal conduct bordering on deliberate treachery by Tej Singh and Lal Singh, the commanders of the Sikh Army. On the British side, the Governor General, Sir Henry Hardinge, had been dismayed by the head-on tactics of the Bengal Army's commander-in-chief, Sir Hugh Gough, and was seeking to have him removed from command. However, no commander senior enough to supersede Gough could arrive from England for several months. Then the army's spirits were revived by the victory gained by Sir Harry Smith at the Battle of Aliwal, in which he eliminated a threat to the army's lines of communication, and the arrival of reinforcements including much-needed heavy artillery and two battalions of Gurkhas. The Sikhs had been temporarily dismayed by their defeat at the Battle of Ferozeshah, and had withdrawn most of their forces across the Sutlej River.
