February 2007 Issue
The February 2007 issue is dedicated to the memory of Greg Poe, a good friend, one of the world' s finest aerobatic pilots and an inspiration to tens of thousands of youngsters all over the United States High Flight by John Gillespie Magee Jr. Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth, GREG POE And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunwards I’ve climbed and joined the tumbling mirth Of sun-split clouds — and done a hundred things You have not dreamed of — wheeled and soared and swung High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there, I’ve chased the shouting wind along and flung My eager craft through footless halls of air... Up, up the long delirious burning blue I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace, Where never lark, or even eagle, flew — And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod The high untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

THE ARMS OF THE SCOTTISH BISHOPRICS BY Rev. W. T. LYON. M.A.. F.S.A. (Scot] WITH A FOREWORD BY The Most Revd. W. J. F. ROBBERDS, D.D.. Bishop of Brechin, and Primus of the Episcopal Church in Scotland. ILLUSTRATED BY A. C. CROLL MURRAY. Selkirk : The Scottish Chronicle" Offices. 1917. Co — V. PREFACE. 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). -

Scottish Highlands and Dumbarnie Links
800.344.5257 [email protected] PerryGolf.com Scottish Highlands and Dumbarnie Links <p>6 Nights | 6 Rounds including Royal Dornoch, Carnoustie and Dumbarnie Links</p> This six-night, six-round package explores championship links layouts that are familiar to golfers and revered throughout the sport. It’s available from April to October. Visit the Scottish Highlands for rounds of golf at Royal Dornoch, Castle Stuart and Nairn. Admire the amazing list of champions who seized the Claret Jug at Carnoustie. Tee it up on Scotland's newest links course - Dumbarnie Links, located 9 miles south of St Andrews and featuring panoramic views over the Firth of Forth, before concluding an unforgettable week of golf at Kyle Phillip's highly rated Kingsbarns. Deluxe accommodations are available at Kingsmills Hotel and the Fairmont St Andrews. Friday, August 20 This evening depart the United States. Saturday, August 21 Today play Castle Stuart (tbc). Once Kingsbarns opened, developer Mark Parsinen began his search for an encore. He found it in the Highlands overlooking the Moray Firth less than ten miles from Inverness where he and Gil Hanse fashioned another modern links classic. The first three holes on each nine run away from the clubhouse and along the water. The remaining six on each side play on top of the escarpment offering spectacular views on your way back to the exceptional clubhouse. Castle Stuart is a true links course in every sense with revetted natural bunkers, waste bunkers, rumpled fairways and run-up greens. This three-time host to the Scottish Open complements any visit to the Highlands. -

Dornoch Cathedral Windows
DORNOCH CATHEDRAL WINDOWS These notes are for the many people who not only comment on the beauty of the Cathedral windows, but who may like to learn, briefly, their background, and those commemorated in them. The Cathedral was extensively altered and rebuilt by Elizabeth, Duchess Countess of Sutherland from 1835 – 1837. Those windows remaining before work were all restored or replaced in the design of Alexander Coupar. THE CHANCEL North Wall of the Chancel Three windows by Percy C. Bacon, of London, 1926, erected in memory of Andrew Carnegie (1898-1919 owner of Skibo Castle, and benefactor of this Cathedral). The subjects [from left to right] represent Carnegie’s interests in Literature, Peace and Music. Literature is represented by a woman holding a book with two crossed torches of learning at her feet. At the apex is an angel also holding a book “A Light unto my Faith”. Peace is depicted by Christ with the words “Blessed are the Peacemakers” below which the Angel appears to the shepherds proclaiming “On Earth Peace, Goodwill to men”. Music is represented by a female figure holding a musical instrument with crossed instruments at her feet and an angel holding a sheet of music over her head. The inscriptions read:- A Light unto my faith Blessed are the peacemakers Praise be the Lord Let there be Light On earth peace, goodwill toward men To the Glory of God loving memory of Skibo and in of Andrew Carnegie 1835 - 1919 East Gable of the Chancel These are by Christopher Whall (1849-1924) of London, and commemorate Cromartie, 4th Duke of Sutherland (1851-1913). -

Before we travel to watch the game’s best battle the Old Course, we’ll play Royal Dornoch, the legendary home layout that inspired architect Donald Ross; the PGA Centenary and King’s courses at Gleneagles and Castle Stuart , recent host of the Scottish Open. We convene at Gleneagles, a magnificent countryside estate, which combines luxurious rooms, scenic views and excellent cuisine, creating an incomparable place to relax and refresh. The non-golfers in our party will enjoy touring the Drummond Gardens and visiting great Scottish symbols, Stirling Castle and the Wallace Monument. In Inverness, the Ballindalloch Castle is known as the “Pearl of the North,” while the entire group tastes the whisky at the Glenlivet Distillery. Also explore the beautiful Dunrobin Castle, looking out across the stunning North Sea. The golf at Gleneagles is extraordinary. The PGA Centenary Course was designed by Jack Nicklaus for the 2014 Ryder Cup matches. The King’s Course is a beauty, designed by five-time Open champion James Braid in 1919 and offering stunning scenery in every direction. Traveling to Royal Dornoch is imperative for any Ross aficionado, to face the demanding inverted saucer greens created by Old Tom Morris.
