[email protected] Kingston Parish and Church Magazine July 2015 Vicar’s Letter July heralds warmth and blooming gardens for us; long summer evenings, fields swaying with tall crops and possibly the thought of a holiday away from it all for a week or two. Exams are over, schools break up and for many there is a welcome feeling of peace and rest as we touch the mid-point of the year. July has long been a time of celebration and many customs and traditions have grown up around it. Although it is the 7 th month of the year for us, it was the 5 th month in the calendar of the ancient Romans: they called it Quintilius , which means 5 th , but the Roman Senate changed it to Julius (July) in honour of Julius Caesar, who was born on 12 th July. The Anglo-Saxon names for July were Heymonath or Maed , referring to hay-making and the flowering of meadows. We have our own local summer traditions, like our village fetes, but there are many quirky and quaint July customs around the country, for example Swan- upping: this annual census of swans on a 70-mile stretch the River Thames takes place during a 5 day journey up the river in July. The Whitstable Oyster season officially begins on 25 th July, which is St James’ Day. Whitstable Bay on the north Kent coast has long been famous for its oysters. Old Kentish tradition has it that Julius Caesar was attracted to Britain because of Whitstable oysters. On St James’ Day, locals hold an Oyster festival, when fishers and dredgers celebrate with a festival of thanksgiving. Saints’ Days were often the basis for local customs and beliefs. Perhaps the most famous is St Swithun’s Day on 15 th July. The belief is that whatever the weather is on this day will remain for the next 40 days: St Swithun’s Day, if thou dost rain For forty days it will remain. St Swithun’s Day, if thou be fair, For forty days ‘twill rain nae mair. It’s a month closely associated with the family and friends of Jesus. His grandparents, the parents of the Virgin Mary, Anna and Joachim, are commemorated on 26 th July. In addition to James, another of Jesus’s closest friends, Thomas (famous as ‘Doubting Thomas’) is remembered on 3 rd July and the first person that Jesus appeared to after his resurrection, Mary Magdalene, is celebrated on 22 nd July. One of the families which was closest to Jesus, Mary, Martha and Lazarus, is remembered on 29 th July: they frequently offered him hospitality in their home, and when Lazarus died Jesus wept with sorrow. Jesus restored Lazarus to life, four days after his death, as a sign of the new resurrection life Jesus was himself soon to experience. 1 Kingston Parish and Church Magazine July 2015 I hope that July is a time of peace and restoration for you, whether that involves time away with friends and family taking part in special summer events or enjoying summer life in our beautiful villages.

    THE JOURNAL of the UNITED REFORMED CHURCH HISTORY SOCIETY (incorporating the Congregational Historical Society, founded 1899, and the Presbyterian Historical Society of England, founded 1913) EDITORS: Revd. Dr. R. BUICK KNOX, M.A., B.D., and Dr. CLYDE BINFIELD, M.A. VOL. 1. No. 9. APRIL 1977 CONTENTS Editorial and Notes 239 Cambridge Nonconformity 1660-1710: from Holcroft to Hussey, by Geoffrey F. Nuttall, M.A., D.D. 241 Saint John of Redenhall: a Unique Tombstone? by J. E. Newport, M.A., B.D., B.Litt. 259 Reviews 263 Editorial We record with gratitude the great service to the Church and to our Society of the Rev. Roy Drummond Whitehorn, M.A., D.D., M.B.E., who died in November 1976. He made his mark as professor and principal in Westminster College, Cambridge, and as a leading figure in the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church of England of which he was Moderator in 1950. He was also Moderator of the Free Church Federal Council and was one of the early architects of the United Reformed Church. He was President of the Presbyterian Historical Society and was for a time editor of its Journal. He was unable to take much part in the formation of our Society but it had his full support and good wishes. We record with equal gratitude the service of the Rev. William Gordon Robinson, M.A., Ph.D., who died in February 1977. Gordon Robinson ministered in Gatley and Oldham, but it was as Principal of Lancashire (later Northern) College in Manchester, from 1943 to 1968, that he became most widely known.

We are not part of government or any political party. We are accountable to Parliament through a committee of MPs chaired by the Speaker of the House of Commons. Our main role is to carry out electoral reviews of local authorities throughout England. Electoral review An electoral review examines and proposes new electoral arrangements for a local authority. A local authority’s electoral arrangements decide: How many councillors are needed How many wards or electoral divisions should there be, where are their boundaries and what should they be called How many councillors should represent each ward or division Why Cambridgeshire? We are conducting an electoral review of Cambridgeshire County Council as the Council currently has high levels of electoral inequality where some councillors represent many more or many fewer voters than others. This means that the value of each vote in county council elections varies depending on where you live in Cambridgeshire. Overall, 32% of divisions currently have a variance of greater than 10%. Our proposals for Cambridgeshire Cambridgeshire County Council currently has 69 councillors.
