    From the Curate - Seasons and Colours The February edition of the magazine is published in the short period between the two groups of “seasons” which fill the first part of the church year. The “incarnation” group of Advent, Christmas and Epiphany finishes with Candlemas on 2nd February. The “Easter” group of Lent and Easter starts on Ash Wednesday – 9th February this year. This year we have a very early Easter on 27th March. Easter can occur on any date between 22nd March and 25th April. It’s quite rare for it to be in the first few or last few days of its range. In three years time, in 2008 it will be earlier still on 23rd March. That’s the earliest it has been for nearly a hundred years; it was last on that date in 1913. So, at least this year, there is still one Sunday between the seasons of Epiphany and Lent. Oddly, because 2008 is a Leap Year, there will also be one then. Normally, when Easter falls on 22nd or 23rd March, there are none. Green becomes the liturgical colour for these periods outside the seasons. These colours are used for the altar frontals and the stoles and other vestments worn by the clergy. At this time of year, when we have the three short seasons of Advent, Christmas and Epiphany followed by a short period of so called “ordinary time” and then Lent, we are changing the colours rather often. Vicki has a significant job of swapping things over! I sometimes wonder if anyone notices, other than a small band of “liturgical anoraks” – which of course includes the clergy.

It was designed to give statements of fact to one who cares simply for such, as well as to lure the student who wants to learn something of Williamsburg's place in the world. Prac tically everything herein contained is based on ancient documents or official records. mI a very grateful to Mr. A. S. Salley, Jr., Secretary of the Historical Commission of South Carolina, for his sympathetic patience with me while gathering material from his office and for much aid given me; and, likewise, to the authorities in the office of the Secretary of State and the Charleston Library. Miss Mabel L. Webber, Secretary of the South Carolina Historical Society, gave me many helpful suggestions. Judge of Probate W. E. Snowden and Clerk of the Court John D. Britton, of Williamsburg, Judge of Probate Frank M. Bryan, of Charleston, and Judge of Probate Thomas E. Richardson, of Sumter, were always very kind and helpful when I worked in their offices. .Mr. B E. Clarkson allowed me the use of the Confed erate War Diary of his late father, William J.

Katie Geiser, the first girl to be Head of School, Girls’ Games 38 gave an excellent speech at the OD dinner in Big School in September House Reports 6 Swimming/Water Polo 47 2010 in which she reminisced with great warmth and affection on her Crooss Country 49 two years in the school (there will be a full report of the girls’ 25th The Caffinites House anniversary in next years Dunelnian). In 1993, Katie was one of about Athletics 50 School House 40 girls in the sixth form; today there are almost 140 girls in the senior Hockey (boys) 54 school between the ages of 11 and 18. The school has been transformed Poole House Rugby 55 by the girls. Their presence makes the school very different to what it Pimlico House Cricket 65 had been, and yet at the same time many of the traditions and qualities MacLeod House that made Durham School such a special place are still here.

  • The Clergy of St John the Baptist Smallhythe Taylor
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society ( 26 ) THE CLERGY OF ST. JOHN THE BAPTIST, SMALLHYTHE. BY A. H. TAYLOR. IN Vol. XXX of our Transactions I contributed some account of SmaUhythe Chapel and its clergy, but further research has revealed some additional names and other interesting particulars relating to this quaint old edifice so that it is felt a revised hst is long overdue. The chapel is an interesting specimen of Tudor brickwork having been, according to evidence from wiUs, rebuUt in the years 1516-17 after the disastrous fire of 1514 which destroyed the old one and also a great part of the hamlet. Its characteristic features are described, with a few drawings, by Mr. Nathaniel Lloyd in a History of English Brickwork which he published in 1925. It may also be considered noteworthy as being one of the very few Uvings in England—certainly the only one in this diocese—where the parishioners had the right to elect their own minister; this, however, lapsed when the benefice was amalgamated with that of the mother parish of Tenterden in 1928. The foUowing Ust of its clergy is here offered, not altogether in heu of that appearing at pages 181-89 of the above-mentioned volume, but as supplementary, in particular it is to be noted that Percival Brett was not a curate and the mistake arose from the correspondent who furnished his name misreading the word " jurat " as " curat." Percival Brett the jurat served also as Mayor of Tenterden in 1609-10.
