  • Bishop's Address (Thy Kingdom Come)
    PRESIDENTIAL ADDRESS by Bishop Ng Moon Hing Presented at the Diocesan Synod held from 23rd – 25th August 2007 at St. Mark’s Church, Butterworth and Pearl View Hotel, Prai DIOCESAN SYNOD 2007 Page 1 THY KINGDOM COME Rt. Rev. Ng Moon Hing CONTENTS 1. PREFACE 2. VISION FOR THE DIOCESE OF WEST MALAYSIA 3. THE CLERGY – MY COMRADES 4. THE LAITY – MY PARTNERS 5. DEVELOPMENT OF THE DIOCESE 6. THE CUTTING EDGE - SPECIAL MINISTRIES 7. HOW DO WE GET THERE? CHAPTER ONE PREFACE I have deliberately chosen the title THY KINGDOM COME with one aim in mind that is to constantly remind us that all we do and plan for the Diocese of West Malaysia is to establish HIS KINGDOM on earth particularly in West Malaysia. We should all be directed again to the noble aim and intention of our early founders of the Anglican Church in West Malaysia through our bishops, namely, Bishop Roland Koh, Bishop John Savarimuthu, Bishop Lim Cheng Ean and Bishop M.E. Ponniah, and the laity. I am indeed humbled by the appointment as the 4th Diocesan Bishop of the Diocese of West Malaysia. I sincerely believe God has placed me at this crossroad of the 21st century of our Diocese to lead this Diocese to take a quantum leap from the maintenance mode to the mission mode; from a walking pace to a running pace; from a traditional and uninteresting church to a exciting and vibrant church; from one diocese to many dioceses; from a clergy led church to a clergy – laity jointly led church; from one worship style church to one stop multi – ministry church.

  • Dryden - Dreadon Paper by Brian Dreadon - Hamilton New Zealand May 2011
    St Clair – Sinclair de Driden – Dryden - Dreadon Paper by Brian Dreadon - Hamilton New Zealand May 2011 Completely rewritten in January 2018 with new information, corrections and explanations extracted from the book “Dryden – the History and Mysteries of a family name”, first published in 2013 but with a more extensive 3rd edition to be published in 2018 This paper was originally written around one theory of descent for the Dryden family of Canons Ashby in England. The central question was always whether or not William Dryden of Walton the ancestor of the Drydens of Canons Ashby, was descended from the Sinclair of Dryden family in Scotland. Over the last six years, much new information has come from research into the Scottish and English archives that has clarified the structure of the Sinclair of Dryden family tree in Scotland and the structure of the early Dryden family in Cumberland. However, nothing new has been uncovered that proves absolutely that the two families are related - or conversely that they are unrelated families. Because a number of the old records of the “Dryden” family name in Scotland have now been confirmed as referring to members of the Sinclair of Dryden family, the origin and descent of the Dryden name in Scotland can be proven beyond much doubt. Over 200 years later than the earliest Scottish records the occurrence of the Dryden name starts in the English borders, and then finds its way south. The inescapable conclusion is that the name spread from Scotland to England. Just exactly how remains a theory, but the circumstantial evidence connecting the Scottish and English Dryden families across the border is now voluminous.

Mackay Two Hitherto Unrecorded Letters of Allan Ramsay In 1974 I purchased a scrapbook consisting of a foolscap volume whose folios bear the watermark of W & M Mills, dated 1821. About half of the volume had been occupied with historic letters which were pasted in. There was no inscription on the fly-leaf, so the name of the person who had compiled this collection is not known. From external evidence, however, it has been deduced that the collection was formed some time in the 1820s by John Clerk Maxwell of Middlebie and Glenlair who died in 1856. He was an advocate, younger brother of Sir George Clerk-Maxwell of Penicuik and father of the celebrated physicist, James Clerk MaxwelL Originally the scrapbook comprised about 80 documents. A number of them have been removed for incorporation in my reference collection of eighteenth-century postmarks, although a meticulous record of items removed from the scrapbook has been kept.

It attempts to analyse the various political forces at play and the ideas which motivated the lead figures. Chapter One William of Orange and the Scots This chapter discusses the status of the Scottish bishops in the Restoration Church of Scotland, their distinction from the bishops of the Church of England. It describes the coming of William, the return of the Scottish exiles with him, and the gathering of the Scottish notables in London in the winter of 1688/9.
