Esmond Butler, Secretary General of the Order of Military Merit to Corporal R. L. Mailloux, I 3 December 1972 nlike the Order of Canada, which underwent a significant structural change five years after being established, the changes made to the Order of Military U Merit since 1972 have been largely administrative. Following the Order of Canada structure and general ethos has served the Order of Military Merit well. Other developments, such as the change in insignia worn on undress ribbons, the adoption of a motto for the Order and the creation of the Order of Military Merit paperweight, are examined in Chapter Four. With the ink on the Letters Patent and Constitution of the Order dry, The Queen and Prime Minister having signed in the appropriate places, and the Great Seal affixed thereunto, the Order had come into being, but not to life. In the beginning, the Order consisted of the Sovereign and two members: the Governor General as Chancellor and a Commander of the Order, and the Chief of the Defence Staff as Principal Commander and a similarly newly minted Commander of the Order. The first act of Governor General Roland Michener as Chancellor of the Order was to appoint his Secretary, Esmond Butler, to serve "as a member of the Advisory Committee of the Order." 127 Butler would continue to play a significant role in the early development of the Order, along with future Chief of the Defence Staff General Jacques A.

  • 2014 OBITUARIES Philip German-Ribon
    “REQUIEM AETERNAM DONA EIS DOMINE” 2014 OBITUARIES OBITUARIES Philip German-Ribon (30) Philip German- Ribon died on the 16th September aged 101 and at the time of his passing was our oldest OB. He was the youngest of three brothers who came to Beaumont the sons of Roberto. His Grandfather had been the Bolivian Ambassador in London and Paris and he was born in 1912 at their residence in the Cromwell road. Later he moved to Paris and enjoyed holidays at their house in Biarritz. The family were of Spanish origin and there is still a street in Seville named after them but they then moved to Columbia in the 18th century and took part in the liberation of South America with Simon Bolivar; one of Philip’s ancestors was shot by the Spanish as a traitor. In Bolivia they had large mining interests and were involved politically in the administration of the country. Philip though spent most of his childhood in England and his parents had a home near Tunbridge Wells and his father worked in London involved with specialist metals such as bismuth and tin which brought them into involvement with the Wolffs and the London Metal Market. Philip and his brothers were sent to Wagners in Queens Gate where Philip made a strong friendship with John de Laszlo, the son of Philip the society artist. It was during this period that as a young boy Philip visited 11 Downing Street where de Laszlo was painting Sir Austen Chamberlain who also happened also to be a friend of Philip’s parents.

Mackie Previously in this journal I described how Canada has received armorial law from England.1 Yet as the former Lord Lyon King of Arms, Lyon Blair, observed, 'The legislation creating the Canadian heraldic office allows them to create arms which are subject to "the law of Canada". Now, Canada has a series of differing laws, emanating from each province, some based on French legal principles, and others on English legal principles.2 The question then arises, does this series of differing laws affect the law of arms of Canada? To answer this question, I will first examine just what laws of arms the provinces of Canada have received (and, incidentally, whether their courts are empowered to administer these laws).

It was great to see more 5 Heraldic Art members and guests out to this education day and it shows that this Grant of Arms in 6 annual event is gaining interest. Ontario 2015 The day started out with Mr. The Canadian Jonathan Lofft, providing a lecture 7 Herald’s Medallion on “Three Canadian Seals Not by the Wyons; Decolonising Sir Books for reference 8 Conrad Swan’s Sigillography”. This was followed by Mr. Derwin Mak, speaking on “The Coat of Arms of the Korean Empire from 1901-1903”. After everyone returned from lunch in the city we had the opportunity to hear from Dr. D’Arcy Boulton, FRHSC, AIH who provided a very visually pleasing presentation on “Combining Personal Arms in England before 1625”. Finishing off our academic day together Canon David Bowyer, FRHSC provided a very interesting lecture on “Sacred Brollies & Holy Bumbershoots” What a day was had by all and if you had to miss this year’s Heraldic Studies Day hopefully you will be able to join us next year for what we can only assume will be another very successful day of he- raldic learning.

Nonetheless, our Society will assiduously press on despite the forecast of weather. Our Membership Secretary, David Broomfield has recorded a fascinating detail stemming from the Vestry in Trinity College as a part of our Heraldic Survey to celebrate Cambridge’s 800 th Anniversary. His findings are meticulously uncovered in this term’s issue as “The Seckford Monument”. We would like to invite other members to inform us of any other intriguing details that might be of interest for the Heraldic Survey related to the University of Cambridge and Colleges. We were also honoured to welcome two special speakers this past term. The first was Dr Vittoria Feola, Fellow at ULB in Brussels, Belgium and visiting fellow at Goldsmith College at the University of London. Dr Feola gave this year’s Mountbatten Commemorative Lecture on “The Court of Chivalry in Stuart Heraldry” which was a supplement to her PhD research on "Elias Ashmole and the uses of Antiquity" .

The Emblematic Elements D’ARCY JONATHAN DACRE BOULTON Ph.D. (Penn.), D. Phil. (Oxon.), F.R.H.S.C., F.S.A., A.I.H. University of Notre Dame 1. Introduction Since November 1921,2 the then Dominion and now Kingdom of Canada has possessed an armorial achievement superior in all respects but one to those of the other sovereign states of the Commonwealth.3 It is superior 1 The article that follows is based on a paper delivered on 20 September 2006 in Ottawa, Ontario, to the IVth Annual Colloquium of the Royal Heraldry Society of Canada. I should like to thank those present for their many suggestions and words of encouragement, all of which I have taken seriously, and a number of which I have included in this article. 2 The Royal Warrant by which the new achievement was established was dated 21 November 1921. The full text of the blazon is printed in Alan B. BEDDOE [FHSC] and Strome GALLOWAY [FRHSC], Beddoe’s Canadian Heraldry (Belleville, Ont., 1981), p. 64.

  • ASH 3.F-Galles-Republic
    Heralds for the Republic: A Proposal for the Establishment of Heraldic Authorities in the United States of America1 DUANE L. C. M. GALLES∗ J.D. (Wm. Mitch.), J.C.L., J.C.D. (St Paul), Ph.D. (Ottawa), A.A.I.H., F.S.A. Scot. Attorney-at-Law, State of Minnesota And I took root in an honourable people. Sirach 24:12 The year 2009 marked the beginning of the third decade of existence of the Canadian Heraldic Authority.2 There is an old German proverb that Alle Anfangen sind schwer — all beginnings are difficult — and doubtless it was so with the Canadian Heraldic Authority, although to the external observer things seemed to have moved smoothly from the very start. This no doubt was in part due to its well thought-out form and location in the Honours Chancellery of the Governor General’s office, to the encouragement and help it received from the several Governors General and members of the government of the day, to the quality of the staff who from the start formed the Authority, and to the consistent support from the Canadian Heraldry Society and many sections of the Canadian public.3 At the same time, the success of this North American heraldic authority raises the question of whether a similar heraldic authority might not be created in her North American neighbour immediately to the south. In what follows, Section 1 briefly describes the heraldic past of the United States. The first subsection of that section is a rapid history of armigery in the lands now included in that country, and its second subsection recalls the use of heralds or pro-heralds in the same lands.

  • Journal 9.Pub
    SOMERSET HERALDRY SOCIETY Journal No 9 July 2006 STEPHENFRIAR OBJECTS TO GUSSET The well-known heraldic author, Stephen Friar, has taken this Journal to task for its news story in the last edition. Mr Friar is unhappy at his arms being portrayed with a gusset, saying that there is nothing dishonourable in his stance on caravans. While we concede that opinion is allowable, we would defend ourselves by drawing attention to the little-known Act of Parliament, the Caravan Users (Discrimination against, Prevention of) Act 2005, which was passed as a private member’s bill last year, through the good offices of Charles Kennedy, the former LibDem leader. Mr Kennedy pushed this act through almost un-noticed as his swan- song, before he departed from the leadership of his party. We should also point out that the abatement was proposed on the grounds not of Mr Friar’s unaccountable objection to caravans, but rather on those that he was allowing himself to become too famous, by appearing in the national press. While we acknowledge that the armigerous man is a sub-species of the genus Nobilis, we cannot accept that appearance in the London Times is the correct display of that nobility. The theory of arms is that all men who are Known (nobilis, from the same root as Greek for I know, in its original meaning) are entitled to arms on that account. Later custom in England divided the nobiles into Peers and Gentlemen, but in other European jurisdictions they are known as the titled and untitled nobility. In the case of Mr Friar, we consider that an appearance in a publication such as the London Times does neither him, nor the gentle art of heraldry any honour.
