T he Societ y was called to order in the Gridiron Room of the \ illard Hotel, Washington, D. C., by the Chieft ain, Rev. James Mitchell Ma­ grud er, D. D., announcing the twenty-first annual gat hering of th e American Clan Gregor Society. Invocati on was by the Chaplain of the Societ y, Rev. Enoch M agruder Thompson. The report of the Scribe, Robert Lee Magruder, Jr., pointed out that minutes of the 1929 gathering had been published in the Year Book of th e Society. He stressed th at our addr ess list of members was incorrect, owing to failure of members to notify of changes in address. He announced tha t only two bible records had been submitted durin g the rear and urged the importance of members sending in certified copies of such record for preservation in the year book. He urged the membe rs to renew interest in the organization by attend ance at the annual gatherings and securing new members, together with furnishing items of general inte rest relati ve to families of Clan members. The report of the Registrar, M rs, O. O. Van den Berg, showed that only four new members had become affi liated with the Society during th e year, namely: 675 Mrs. Gertrude Berry Patterson, 322 W. Center St., Fostoria, Ohio. 676 Miss Mary Adelaide Jenkins, Hunting Ridge, Edmondson and Swan Ave., Baltimore, Md. 678 Irs. Wilson B. Da vis (jennie L. Embry) 944 Green St., Augu sta, Ga. 679 Mrs. Joseph F. Bartoli (Addie Lou Davis) 125 East 106th St., New York, N. Y. Th e Registrar announced with regret that the appli cations of Dr. Henry Allan Gleason, of New York Cit y, and Mr. and Mrs. George Brick Smith, of ewport ews, Va., were of necessity refused, owing to lack of data. Ea ch of the se app licants would add much to the personnel of our Society and it is hoped th e missing information will be found. Mrs . Van den Berg further stated th at she had purchased a bolt of ribbon in the Ma cGregor plaid, from which to cut badges for new mem­ bers. Th e report of the Historian, Mi ss Mary Th erese Hill, showed the following deaths : 113 Robert Lee Magruder, Sr Born 1856, Died 1929 252 Mrs. Helen Mun caster assaway Born 1863, Died 1930 287 Mrs. W.

Cultural resource overview Klamath Natl I ~111111111IIIII J3 5138 11 000657291111111111111111111 3 Management Summary This report synthesizes information on the Klamath National Forest area environment and culture history, discusses the significance of the Forest's cultural resources, and makes recommendations for managing those resources. This report is one of a series of reports which will also provide descriptive summaries of Forest cultural resources, predict their distribution, and evaluate the effects of Forest activities on the resources. The Klamath National Forest environment is varied and complex. It includes the Klamath Mountains and Cascades/Modoc Plateau geomorphic provinces. The ruggedness of the Klamath Mountains province and water supply problems in the Cascades/Modoc Plateau province create challenges for those who occupy and use them. Variations in elevation, soil, moisture, aspect and vegetation create numerous local environments within each province. Little is known about the early prehistory of the Forest, although it is likely that the area was occupied by at least 4000 B.C. By the time European-Americans arrived in the area, it was occupied by people belonging to three cultures: the Karok, Shasta, and Modoc. Differences between these cultures may have originated partly from adaptation to differing local environments. The first European-Americans to enter the Forest area were members of Hudson's Bay Company trapping and exploring expeditions. They appeared in the late 1820's.

  • Legislators of California
    The Legislators of California March 2011 Compiled by Alexander C. Vassar Dedicated to Jane Vassar For everything With Special Thanks To: Shane Meyers, Webmaster of JoinCalifornia.com For a friendship, a website, and a decade of trouble-shooting. Senator Robert D. Dutton, Senate Minority Leader Greg Maw, Senate Republican Policy Director For providing gainful employment that I enjoy. Gregory P. Schmidt, Secretary of the Senate Bernadette McNulty, Chief Assistant Secretary of the Senate Holly Hummelt , Senate Amending Clerk Zach Twilla, Senate Reading Clerk For an orderly house and the lists that made this book possible. E. Dotson Wilson, Assembly Chief Clerk Brian S. Ebbert, Assembly Assistant Chief Clerk Timothy Morland, Assembly Reading Clerk For excellent ideas, intriguing questions, and guidance. Jessica Billingsley, Senate Republican Floor Manager For extraordinary patience with research projects that never end. Richard Paul, Senate Republican Policy Consultant For hospitality and good friendship. Wade Teasdale, Senate Republican Policy Consultant For understanding the importance of Bradley and Dilworth. A Note from the Author An important thing to keep in mind as you read this book is that there is information missing. In the first two decades that California’s legislature existed, we had more individuals serve as legislators than we have in the last 90 years.1 Add to the massive turnover the fact that no official biographies were kept during this time and that the state capitol moved seven times during those twenty years, and you have a recipe for missing information. As an example, we only know the birthplace for about 63% of the legislators. In spite of my best efforts, there are still hundreds of legislators about whom we know almost nothing.

  • King's Sutton Parish Church St. Peter and St. Paul the Windows
    King’s Sutton Parish Church St. Peter and St. Paul The Windows 50p THE WINDOWS OF THE CHURCH OF SS PETER AND PAUL KING’S SUTTON There are few original windows in the church, for the building has been rebuilt, and enlarged, several times. The oldest structure is the chancel, of the 12th century but the windows here to north and south, are 14th century with some restoration by Sir Gilbert Scott in the 19thcentury. The small one on the south side probably dates from the 19th century restoration too, and the east window, a perpendicular design, is also by Scott. The nave windows are largely of the 14th century when the two aisles were widened. The east and west windows on the north side were truncated when the roof was lowered in the 18th century. The west window of the tower has had its lower portion hidden by the roof of the west porch. It is interesting that the western parts of the aisles have no windows to north or south. And none of the porches has windows. The clerestory windows, high in the nave, probably date from the early 16th century. It is likely that in the medieval period all the windows in the church would have been filled with coloured glass, but all this has gone. As we shall see some of the present plain glass is of the 16th century, which might suggest that it was then, at the time of the Reformation, that the medieval glass was removed. But generally speaking most destruction of glass took place during the time of Oliver Cromwell in the 17th century.

On the one hand, as readers will be quick to discern, they constitute a new and vivid commentary upon the perennially interesting history of the gold rush and life in the California mines. To be sure their author, like nearly all of those upon whose narratives our knowledge of conditions in the gulches and on the river bars of the Golden State depends, wrote as an eager gold seeker busily panning, rocking, or sluicing the sands of some hundred foot mining claim. His picture of California, at any given moment, had to be generalized, so to speak, from the “color” at the bottom of his testing pan. His particular camp, company, or environmental coup symbolized for him the prevailing conditions social, economic, and moral. While this was inevitable, it was by no means a misfortune, for a certain uniformity prevailed throughout the mining field and the witness who by intensive living gained a true insight into a given unit had qualifications for interpreting the entire gold digging society.

  • 'Stained Glass Windows'
    St John’s is fortunate to have a first-class collection of 19th and 20th century ‘Stained Glass Windows’. Research was undertaken to establish as much of the story behind each window as possible. This research continues but the following represents the facts as understood at the time of writing in 2005. 1 Nave North West Window, 1939 - opposite the entrance porch - “Adoration of the Magi” - shows the three wise men bringing gifts to the infant Jesus. Above are angel musicians with long trumpets and dulcimers. There is a Latin inscription towards the foot of the window, "QUIA NATUS EST VOBIS SALVATOR" (He was born as your Saviour). To the memory of William Topham Moss and Ann his wife. This window was placed here by their son Dennis Topham Moss Installed in 1939 by H A Green & Sons of Ripon, this window was created by Morris and Co which held a leading place in English stained-glass design from the early 1860s. Sir Edward Burne-Jones had been one of the principal designers although his real fame was achieved as a painter in oils. Morris & Co had also been involved in a number of other ventures including interior design, printing and other crafts. When Morris died at the end of the 19th century the various parts of the venture went their separate ways. The stained-glass workshop retaining the Morris name, was run by J H Dearle who had been its manager in the last years of Morris and Burn-Jones; he was also a fine (if wholly derivative) designer in his own right.

  • New Windows for the Catholic Church of St Thomas of Canterbury, Fairford (2003) by Richard Barton (Copyright)
    Parish logo designed by Maggi Fitzpatrick New Windows for the Catholic Church of St Thomas of Canterbury, Fairford (2003) by Richard Barton (copyright) The little Catholic Parish Church of St Thomas of Canterbury was erected in 1845 and on the day of its solemn opening the only stained glass window in the church was the triple lancet one above the altar. Now there is a collection of fifteen stained glass windows and they represent the changing fashions and styles of nearly 160 years and are the work of at least seven different artists. These include John Hardman of Birmingham, Jones & Willis, Geoffrey Robinson of Joseph Bell & Sons of Bristol, Daniella Wilson Dunne of the Brewery Arts Centre in Cirencester and Sarianne Durie of Lechlade Mill. The first windows are signed and dated ‘W.W. 1845’ and is the work of William Wailes of Newcastle- upon-Tyne. At this time, Wailes was carrying out many commissions for Augustus Welby Pugin. The two small quatrefoil windows are the most recent in the church and were commissioned in 2002 and designed by Sarianne Durie of Lechlade Mill. The one above the altar portrays the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove holding an olive twig in its mouth. The other depicts the Eye of God within a triangle, surrounded by a circle and with radiating rays of light. This is a late Renaissance symbol of the infinite holiness of the Triune God who is all knowing, all seeing, and ever present. The Feast of the Holy and Undivided Trinity was especially popular in 1 England in the twelfth century perhaps through its association with St Thomas of Canterbury who was consecrated bishop on that day in 1162.

  • Rougemont House, 2 Westfield Road, Maidenhead, Berks, SL6
    All Saints, Boyne Hill, Maidenhead THE STAINED GLASS WINDOWS The windows in All Saints are a remarkable collection of works by foremost designers of their day, many to the designs of G E Street, including Hardman, Wailes, O’Connor, Heaton and Comper. Information about the windows is based on two sources, the main one being unsigned but believed to be the work of Paul Joyce of the Victorian Society, the foremost G E Street expert of his day, and another paper signed KJ. The description of the windows, below, starts in the North East corner of the church with the Nativity and should be followed in a clockwise direction.

    RESEARCH ARTICLE European Journal of Theology and Philosophy www.ej-theology.org Hannah’s Song: A Foreshadowing of the Magnificat James W.

This essay uses typological methodology to explore the songs’ connections, including their shared literary precedents DOI: 10.24018/theology.2021.1.3.14 and nearly identical theological themes.
