  • Clarence Harold Wilkinson
    PHOTO (courtesy x) Clarence Harold Wilkinson (1864-1922) was born 5 September 1864 to Alexander and Jane Wilkinson in West Maitland, NSW, where he attended the public school and sat junior examinations in 1880. In August 1881 Clarence sought employment with the City of Sydney as an articled pupil. By December 1881 the City’s Finance Committee recommended the appointment of Wilkinson in the City Architect's Department, noting he had completed three months' trial, with an annotation of commendation by T.H. Sapsford, the City Architect. By December 1884, having completed his articles, Wilkinson was placed on the staff as a draftsman with a salary of £125 p.a.. Clarence was a first prize winner in architecture at Sydney Technical College in recognition of studies during 1884. Wilkinson occupied some of his spare time as a member of the volunteer services, acting as a second lieutenant by 1884, and promoted to first lieutenant in 1888. By 1888 Wilkinson was the assistant city architect and building surveyor to the Municipality of Sydney, but he resigned in mid-1889. Clarence advertised with his brother Lancelot Alexander Wilkinson in the Maitland Mercury & Hunter River General Advertiser from October 1899 as ‘Wilkinson & Wilkinson, Architects and Licensed Surveyors’, having offices in Sydney, Newcastle and West Maitland. With poor economic conditions in late 1890, Clarence abandoned his efforts on the east coast and soon travelled to the other side of Australia, seeking greater opportunities. Wilkinson joined the Western Australian Public Works Department (PWD) in Perth, working on a number of railway buidings. He resigned from the PWD at the end of June 1892, and after a few years as a sole practitioner, entered into partnership with E.H.

  • Prize Giving
    Bishop Wordsworth's School PRIZE GIVING Guest of Honour Nick Beer Thursday 19 September 2019 3.30 pm Salisbury Cathedral 1 Head Master’s Introduction to BWS Prize Giving 2019 Given the turbulent political background to this academic year, work in school has had an uncanny sense of calm about it. We were promised relative stability in terms of academic reform, and that probably reflects the status quo over the past 12 months. The final stages of the Govian examination and syllabus reform at both 16+ and 18+ have fallen into place and the second stage of the National Funding Formula has also been implemented, giving a little more financial certainty. Sadly it became clear that the latter could be a false dawn as the government then decided to inflate the employers’ contributions to the Teachers’ Pension Scheme from 16% to 23% of pay. This sounds like a bureaucratic irrelevance; in practical terms it means that a school the size of BWS has to find an extra £170k each and every year from now on. Intense lobbying at a national level resulted in additional funding being provided through to August 2020, but there is absolutely no guarantee of any sort for the future. Our educational priorities were largely unchanged during 2018-2019; social mobility in all of its various guises loomed large, and quite rightly so, as our second 160-strong year group joined us in Year 7. Academic standards and quality of delivery in the classroom remain the principal areas of focus for my staff, and they can be proud of the excellent sets of outcomes that have emerged in the summer just past.

After exploring the backgrounds of the principal actors, this article employs witness testimony to vividly reconstruct the fateful altercation between Lieutenants Peach and de Hertel on 22 May 1815 at Fort York in modern- day Toronto. Subsequent attempts at conciliation, the trial itself, and de Hertel’s vitriolic defence are examined in detail, followed by concluding reflections on the insight gained through study of this affair and the potential of courts martial as historical sources on the Napoleonic British Army.

  • Glengarry's Representatives in the Legislative Assembly of Upper
    CCHA Report, 6(1938-39), 19-37 Glengarry’s Representatives in the Legislative Assembly of Upper Canada BY W. L. SCOTT, K.C., LL.D. Introduction By the Constitutional Act of 1791,1 it was provided2 that “ the Governor, Lieutenant Governor or Person administering His Majesty’s Government within the said provinces [Upper and Lower Canada] respectively” might be authorized “ to issue a proclamation dividing such province into Districts, or Counties, or Circles and Towns or Townships and appointing the Limits thereof and declaring and appointing the Number of Representatives to be chosen by each of such Districts, or Counties, or Circles and Towns or Townships.”3 Under the authority of this enactment, John Graves Simcoe, Lieutenant Governor of Upper Canada, issued a proclamation, dated July 16th, 1792, providing, among other things, as follows: “ That the first of the said Counties be hereafter called by the name of the County of Glengarry: which County is to be bounded, on the East by the Lines that divide Upper from Lower Canada, on the South by the River St. Lawrence, and Westerly by the Easter-most boundary of the late Township of Cornwall, running North Twenty-four Degrees West until it intersects the Ottawa or Grand River, thence descending the said River until it meets the divisional line aforesaid.
