The grand finale during the Elon LEADS campaign wrap-up celebration held April 28, 2023, at the Schar Center on the campus of Elon University
Le Chene Hotel - every morning and evening Goldie and I walked to the traffic lights, turmed left and went down to the woods exploring - it eventually leads to beach and cliff path. One morning Goldie caught a rabbit and we had a long discussion and chase - she wanted to keep it to take it back to hotel - I wanted it to run in the woods. Finally she dropped the rabbit and it scampered off, physically unhurt but mentally and emotionally scarred.
Friday 15 May
6am up and walk thro woods.
After breakfast we walked to get No 6 bus at crossroads - Chris driver, met Micky on bus.
Went into Tourist Info Office to use computer to try to work out how to get from Weymouth to Bristol. Rang Radio Jersey spoke to Lisa.
10.30am Sarah Walker rang from Radio Berkshire pre-recorded interview - good.
10.45 we got No 7 bus to Pleinmont - driver Ivor. We planned to walk round point but the sky was glowering at us so Goldie and I went on the beach for a run. Then the sky split open and, whether we wanted it or not, we got a shower with full pressure on. We managed to get back to the bus shelter before we were completely soaked.
Chris pulled up in his bus and we jumped on. Chris gave a running commentary of what we might see as he drove along the coast - I managed to discern the Camel and Lion Rocks he pointed out. I chatted to Mavis and Ron from Kent.
We got off bus in town and we set off to find the Elim Church for a coffee. We found it in Union Street and had a lovely chat with Ministers Malcolm and Sandy.
3.30pm we got the 6N bus to Bray Road to look for Guernsey Press I got off at the wrong end and had a long walk to find it. (NB it is next to Alliance which I have since found is a cut price grocery store)
Inside the press offices everyone was warmly welcoming. I was interviewed by Amy and Jules.
Chris Raynor rang from Radio Jersey to make an appointment for 5.30pm Mon. Sorry Goldie - it's only a short journey!
From the press offices we walked to The Road near the sea to get a bus from Halfway to the Ferry Terminal. Arrived there 5.30pm and booked ferry for Monday - Matt was really kind and helpful.
We walked into town and we were starving. Dix Neuf restaurant said I could sit outside with Goldie and eat. I talked to Karen who has a clothes shop in town. The meal was excellent - lamb shank mash and veg £17
7.15pm we got the No 7 bus - driver Helen with trainee.
back to Le Chene - a walk in the woods and then bed.
Saturday 16 March
Went to St Martins on bus to find dog food and bed and see vet to help Goldie overcome trauma of ferry travel.
Outside M&S met Judy and Sue who offered to look after Goldie whilst I went into shop. When I asked them where Charity Shops were they asked what i wanted and when i said I needed something for dog cage they offered me a dog bed!
Vet could not give me anything for Goldie so suggested milk before ferry trip.
Sue drove me back to Le Chene.
12.25 bus 7 to Town - driver Craig. Met Tom photographer from press - photos in bus station.
13.35 No 3 bus to Varazon Kiosk. Walked along beach up to Mont Saint and Kings Mill (met Nicole and Rick marathon walkers who put donation in box)and so to Saumarez Park. Salvatore in cafe - steak and salad and chips.
Went for bus - Judy pulled up in car and drove us back to le Chene.
Sunday 17 May
Rained heavily all night.
7am went for walk. Sue and Judy came at 8am with dog bed and milk (they have a milk round)
After breakfats we walked to Petit Bot and on to Le Gouffre. A beautiful sunny day with clear views from cliffs over sea. We met John and Margaret from Nottingham. Walked up to Occupation Museum - Dorothy let Goldie sit outside whilst I had a quick look round.
Went to forest Church met minister Linda - invited for coffee - lovely friendly people.
Walked to bus stop - raining. Pam and Kelvin gave us a lift to Longfire (Kelvin will show me walks round island when we come again)
Longfire hotel had roast beef and veg - £7.95. We sat outdied and only half way through the sky ripped open again - so Goldie got the meat and I rammed the vegetables down.
As soon as the rain abated we set off to walk to St peter's Church - the aisle slopes upwards! From there we followed the winding lanes to The Road to get a bus. The rain was driving down. At the road I decided to walk to the bus shelter at The Imperial Hotel. There we were rescued by Steve driving the No 7 bus. We met Lorraine from Wiltshire.
Steve told me where to get off bus to find ATM machine and then it was to the bus station for the 4.15pm No 7 bus, driver Ivor, to Le Chene.
We stripped off and I tried to dry us both and all our wet things - I had to have a dry rucksack and our PCUK T shirts for the trip to Jersey the day after.
The sun came out and we had a walk with Susan and Alison who were staying in the hotel. - they gave a donation of £5
And so to bed.
Brint Dillingham (right) leads a small group of pickets outside the Justice Department in Washington, D.C. September 24, 1969 protesting the trial of the Chicago 8.
The demonstration was sponsored by the Washington Committee to Support the Conspiracy and coincided with the opening day of the trial in Chicago.
The eight were Abbie Hoffman, Jerry Rubin, Bobbie Seale, David Dellinger, Tom Hayden, Rennie Davis, John Froines, and Lee Weiner charged by the federal government with conspiracy, inciting to riot, and other charges related to anti-Vietnam War and countercultural protests that took place in Chicago, Illinois, on the occasion of the 1968 Democratic National Convention.
The eight represented a wide range of viewpoints from Yippie to Black Panther. Panther Bobby Seale’s trial was eventually severed from the other defendants after repeated outbursts in court protesting Judge Julius Hoffman’s refusal to permit Seale to select his own attorney.
Hoffman bound and gagged Seale in court for a period before severing his case from the rest
The remaining seven were ultimately convicted of some of the lesser charges and sentenced to jail for the convictions and, along with their attorneys, sentenced to jail for multiple counts of contempt of court.
All charges were eventually voided upon appeal except some of the contempt citations that resulted in no jail time.
J. Brinton "Brint" Dillingham (1943-1990) -- Known for his wit even in the face of tense situations; for his organizing skills in antiwar, civil rights and social justice campaigns from the mid-1960s on; for his research on behalf of Native Americans and unjustly accused criminal defendants; for his role in overturning two notorious Maryland anti-civil liberties laws,
Dillingham in his short life was one of D.C.'s and suburban Maryland's most effective activists -- and, certainly, the funniest. In the 1969-1971 period alone, Brint was arrested more than 70 times for antiwar and anti-racism actions. Brint was one of the key D.C. area organizers of the May Day 1971 antiwar protests, which resulted in some 13,000 arrests over a several-day period in D.C.
His investigation in support of a D.C.-area African American man facing execution in Pennsylvania for the murder of a white woman resulted in the death sentence being overturned and in the ultimate exoneration of the prisoner.
Deliberately arrested, and then convicted, for selling copies of an underground newspaper deemed "obscene" by Montgomery County, Md. police, Brint's case eventually resulted in his exoneration and the overturning of the Maryland anti-subversion law by the state's high court.
He was director of Compeers, Inc., a metropolitan-wide organization that established anti-racism training for suburban teenagers, and that helped to organize locally the grape boycott, antiwar protests and the Poor People's Campaign.
He was also co-founder of the People's Law Institute, and organized a coalition that lobbied successfully to overturn key portions of the onerous "indeterminate sentencing" practices at Maryland's Patuxent Institution. [National Lawyer's Guild D.C. Chapter Community Justice Award, Feb. 28, 1985]

Union Pacific C44AC 6570 leads an empty (coal) hopper train from the Edgewater power plant in Sheboygan, WI southbound over the Kenosha subdivision at South Milwaukee, WI. Generally, the Kenosha subdivision only sees a weekday local, Oak Creek (WI) coal trains and occasional manifest trains that make set-outs/pick-ups at the Waukegan, IL yard. However, as of late, the Kenosha sub has seen an increase in traffic due to track work on the parallel Milwaukee subdivision, on which the majority of Milwaukee-Chicago traffic usually moves. In years past, the Kenosha sub was a busy double-tracked stretch of railroad, hosting all of Chicago & NorthWestern’s passenger traffic between Chicago and Milwaukee, including the famed “400” fleet. Evidence of this line’s more glorious past can be seen here at the viaduct over Marquette Avenue (WI Hwy 32) once hosting four tracks–two mainlines and two industry sidings–but now reduced to a single mainline. On the far right, through the trees, the headquarters of Bucyrus International (formerly Bucyrus-Erie) can be seen. Bucyrus, located in South Milwaukee since 1893, began producing railroad steam shovels in the early 1880s, and gained fame by supplying 77 steam shovels to the Panama Canal project between 1904 and 1914. 13 July 2008

This stream valley leads to the Historic Entrance to Mammoth Cave, the longest known cave on Earth. As of March 2024, 426 miles of passages have been explored and mapped. The mouth of the cave is downhill, to the left.
Mammoth Cave park offers underground cave tours all year. Specific tour offerings change from season to season, year to year, and decade to decade. Most tours start at the visitor center and involve walking downhill to the Historic Entrance - the mouth of the cave. Other tours involve short bus rides to artificial entrances (e.g., New Entrance and Carmichael Entrance). Most cave tours fill up quickly. Advance reservations are recommended for any time of year. No entrance fee exists to enter or leave the park itself. Only the underground cave tours cost money. Tours usually have two rangers - one leading the group and one trailing the group. Back in the 1970s, the Historic Tour (2 miles, 2 hours) was self-guided. Intense levels of vandalism resulted in the cessation of self-guided cave tours at Mammoth Cave. One exception in modern times is the Discovery Tour, which permits tourists to enter the mouth of the Cave and explore to the Rotunda, Audubon Avenue, and Rafinesque Hall.
In early times, before the area was a park, two tours were offered - a half-day tour, and a full-day tour. Both involved areas that modern tourists cannot visit (e.g., Pensacola Avenue, Silliman Avenue, Pass of El Ghor, etc.).
Faith-filled learning environment leads to greater academic success, service to community, say supporters
By Ambria Hammel | Feb. 16, 2010 | The Catholic Sun
Catholic education doesn’t just help a student now. The full dividends play out over a lifetime.
That was the overarching theme students throughout the diocese celebratedduring Catholic Schools Week Jan. 31-Feb. 6. Students organized special activities, projects and dress-up days to honor the vital role a Catholic education plays.
“There’s more focus on God and religion, not just academics. I like that,” John Paul McCann, a fifth-grader at Blessed Pope John XXIII, said about his Catholic school experience. “I think it’d be good to have more people learn about God.”
Fr. Dan McBride, pastor of St. Mary’s Parish in Chandler and a St. Jerome School alumnus, concelebrated a special Mass at his alma mater Feb. 4. Six other priests, active and retired, joined him.
“When we celebrate Catholic Schools Week, we celebrate our identity not just as students in a private school. We celebrate our Catholic identity. We know that to learn and to grow in faith are part and parcel; they go together,” Fr. McBride said.
Fr. McBride recalled his daily outlook at St. Jerome: “I was going to learn something I didn’t know and I was expected to do things I didn’t know I could do.”
Other Catholic school alumni visited various campuses throughout the diocese touting the dividends Catholic school provided.
“Catholic education taught me that it’s OK to ask questions and open doors and explore options,” said Vickie Jennett, communications coordinator for St. Timothy Parish in Mesa. She shared her testimony with seventh- and eighth-graders at the parish school Feb. 2.
Jennett — who has worked for a university, several newspapers and now the Church — spent 15 years in Catholic school and still appreciates its focus on faith, the family and discipline.
“I cannot tell you how important my vocation of wife and mother is to me,” said Jennett, whose children are both in their mid-to-late 20s.
Deacons, priests and sisters at various campuses shared their vocation stories with students too. Deacon Dick Petersen also spoke at St. Timothy School.
The Catholic school alum has spent more than one-third of his life in Catholic education — including medical school. He told students that, among other benefits, the prayer life fostered at Catholic schools gives students an advantage in life.
Today’s Catholic high school students already appreciate the strict discipline. Bourgade senior Michael Weikamp is among them. He has grown up in Catholic education and is grateful for so many life lessons.
Weikamp already plans to finance a Catholic education for his future family.
Adelyne Gomez, a seventh-grader at St. Louis the King School in Glendale, also finds value in her Catholic education.
“I know what’s right and what’s not right. I know that if I’m ever in trouble, I can pray to God and He’ll help me,” she said.
Parents of the diocese’s youngest students don’t take that for granted either. They repeatedly named prayer and faith on their list of the top 10 reasons to choose a Catholic education at Our Lady of Joy in Carefree. They unveiled the top 10 list in the parish bulletin during Catholic Schools Week.
Some schools celebrated the week with breakfasts, lunches and spirit rallies saluting public servants and civic leaders.
Fr. Patrick Mowrer, pastor of San Francisco de Asís School in Flagstaff, blessed and recognized a 2005 alumnus during a student Mass Feb. 3. Vincent Johnson, who said his school experience gave him purpose, is joining the Navy next week.
Community service
Other students saw Catholic Schools Week as a chance to do a community service project of their own.
High school students made rosaries, collected toiletry items for André House and organized a blood drive. Students at Seton Catholic Preparatory High School in Chandler raised $5,000 for St. Vincent de Paul.
Elementary school students held benefit drives for Maggie’s Place, servicemen and women and the Department of Public Safety. Several collected food for neighborhood outreach ministries.
The St. Vincent de Paul chapter at St. Benedict Parish in Phoenix benefited from the “Cans Across Campus” project at St. John Bosco Interparish School. Students donated canned goods, toiletries and other non-perishables. Some 550 of them paraded items across campus to the parish food closet.
The student council also brought wagons heaped with donations for eighth-graders to sort and stock.
Students at Annunciation Catholic School in Cave Creek donated money to the Poor Clare Sisters of Perpetual Adoration in Black Canyon City by paying to be “out of uniform” by sporting a hat.
Some of the sisters gave a vocations talk to the students Feb. 5. They gave a similar talk in several classrooms at Blessed Pope John XXIII School in Scottsdale earlier that week. They discussed their habits, hobbies and vows.
Priests throughout the diocese also shared their vocation stories with students at several campuses. A couple of priests said that simply praying, talking to priests and having good priest role models helped foster their vocations.
For Fr. Pat Robinson, that included a recap of his time at seminary. He addressed kindergarteners Feb. 2 at Blessed Pope John XXIII School. Wanting to expand their vocabulary, the teacher encouraged the boys and girls to put the word “vocations” in their head.
“I’m going to superglue it!” one young boy shouted.

Joel Parkinson Leads ASP Top Stars in Assault on Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach Round 1
BELLS BEACH, Victoria/Australia (Wednesday, April 20, 2011) – Today marks the commencement of the 50th Anniversary of competition surfing at Bells Beach as Round 1 of the 2011 Rip Curl Pro Bells presented by Ford Ranger got underway in clean four-to-six foot (1.5 - 2 metre) surf.
The Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach, the second stop on the 2011 ASP World Title season, enjoyed consistent surf throughout the day as the world’s best surfers unleashed a barrage of high-performance ripping on the classic canvas of Bells Beach.
Joel Parkinson (AUS), 30, 2009 Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach Champion put in a sensational performance this afternoon, electing to sit up at Rincon to secure the day’s highest scores.. Parkinson locked in the highest wave score and the highest heat score of the opening day of competition scoring 17.74 (out of a possible 20.00) to advance directly through to Round 3 of competition.
"I fell off twice on the bowl," Parkinson said. "It was really hard to ride. Then CJ (Hobgood) went across to Rincon and got a score, so we followed him over and it worked out for me. It's great to get that opening heat win, especially at Bells. You never know what conditions you're going to get in a heat, so to be able to skip round two and maybe get a day off is a huge advantage."
Kelly Slater (USA), 39, reigning 10-time ASP World Champion and defending event winner, was clinical in his attack in his Round 1 heat. Slater had his fellow competitors Adam Robertson (AUS), 28, and Kai Otton (AUS), 31, on the ropes only minutes into the heat, scoring an impressive 16.00 (out of a possible 20.00) on his opening two rides.
"I don't free surf out at Bells a whole lot," Slater said. "When the waves are good the comp is on and outside of that it's pretty crowded. So I'm still learning with each heat out there still, surfing against a guy like Robbo (Adam Robertson) you've got to watch where he's sitting, how far our and how deep."
Mick Fanning (AUS), 29, currently equal 13th in the hunt for the 2011 ASP World Title, went into today’s competition with renewed vigor after a shock early exit at the last event on the Gold Coast. The past two-time ASP World Champion came out and dominated his Round 1 battle over Tiago Pires (PRT), 31, and Gabriel Medina (BRA), 17.
"I'm stoked to get a good start," Fanning said. "It's been 10 years since I won here as I wildcard, I got close last year but Kelly Slater got me in the final. You want to win every event, but being the 50th Anniversary and so much history at this event, it's like the Wimbeldon of surfing, it's a hard one to win but it's the one everyone wants."
Alejo Muniz (BRA), 21, led today’s rookie charge, continuing his sensational run after the and equal 5th on the Gold Coast, and dispatching of fellow Brazilian Ranoi Monterio (BRA), 28, and Australian Adrian Buchan (AUS), 28 in this morning’s opening round heat.
"It's so good out there!" Muniz said. "This is my first time surfing at Bells and it's the most amazing place. It's got perfect rights, and it's the kind of wave that I love to surf. It's the best place ever, best waves, best weather and I love surfing in wetsuits."
Jeremy Flores (FRA), 22, bounced back after missing the Quiksilver Pro Gold Coast with a knee injury, to score a comprehensive win over Taylor Knox (USA), 39, and Cory Lopez (USA), 34.
"I wasn't very confident before the heat," Flores said. "But I got that first wave and did a big turn at the end and got a good score. I think that's what you need to do these days, finish the wave strong. My knee still isn't 100%, but I went for it and it's good to win. Big thanks to everyone at the Gold Coast Suns Football Club for helping with my knee, it's feeling much better now."
Stu Kennedy (AUS), 21, scored a last minute wildcard into the event and caused the upset of the day, eliminating 2010 ASP World Title runner-up Jordy Smith (ZAF), 23, and Dusty Payne (HAW), 22.
"I've been coming here for years," Kennedy said. "I won a Pro Junior here in 2008 and I know where to sit. I don't think Dusty and Jordy know the break as well as I do so that helps. I've been up since 3am because I'm jet-lagged from coming home from Scotland. I woke up with a bunch of energy it's my shaper's birthday so I woke him up at 5am to go surfing. I had to win my heat for him for his birthday."
When men’s competition resumes, up first will be 2010 ASP World Runner-Up Jordy Smith (ZAF), 23, up against Trials Winner Adam Robertson (AUS), 28, in the opening heat of Round 2.
Following the completion of the men’s Round 1 today, the ASP Top 17 hit the water for Round 1 of the Rip Curl Women’s Pro Bells Beach presented by Ford Fiesta.
Stephanie Gilmore (AUS), 23, reigning four-time ASP Women’s World Champion and defending three-time Rip Curl Women’s Bells Beach winner, returned to her winning ways today, after bowing out early at the last event, the Roxy Pro Gold Coast.
"My first two years on tour I didn't have great results on the Gold Coast," Gilmore said. "I always bounced back at this event and then finished the year well, so hopefully I'll do that again this year. The Gold Coast was a fine showing of what women's surfing is up to now and everyone has to try and keep up. It really pushes me and I think anyone who wins an event from now on will be a very deserving winner because of that fact."
Pauline Ado (FRA), 19, the French rookie caused the upset of the women's event, defeating current ASP World Title front runner Carissa Moore (HAW), 18, in a nail biter of a heat.
"I'm really happy, I had a lot of fun out there," Ado said "I got one of my good waves in the first few seconds so after that I felt confident and knew I could be more selective and wait for the right wave. A heat against Carissa is always a tough one, so I'm really stoked to win."
When women’s competition resumes, up first will be Paige Hareb (NZL) and Jessi Miley-Dyer (AUS) in the opening heat of Round 2.
Event organizers will reconvene tomorrow morning at 7am to assess conditions for a possible 7:30am start.
Highlights from the Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach presented by FORD will be webcast available via www.live.ripcurl.com and broadcast live on Fuel TV in Australia and ESPN in Brazil.

I think that's what you need to do these days, finish the wave strong. My knee still isn't 100%, but I went for it and it's good to win. Big thanks to everyone at the Gold Coast Suns Football Club for helping with my knee, it's feeling much better now."
Stu Kennedy (AUS), 21, scored a last minute wildcard into the event and caused the upset of the day, eliminating 2010 ASP World Title runner-up Jordy Smith (ZAF), 23, and Dusty Payne (HAW), 22.
"I've been coming here for years," Kennedy said. "I won a Pro Junior here in 2008 and I know where to sit. I don't think Dusty and Jordy know the break as well as I do so that helps. I've been up since 3am because I'm jet-lagged from coming home from Scotland. I woke up with a bunch of energy it's my shaper's birthday so I woke him up at 5am to go surfing. I had to win my heat for him for his birthday."
When men’s competition resumes, up first will be 2010 ASP World Runner-Up Jordy Smith (ZAF), 23, up against Trials Winner Adam Robertson (AUS), 28, in the opening heat of Round 2.
Following the completion of the men’s Round 1 today, the ASP Top 17 hit the water for Round 1 of the Rip Curl Women’s Pro Bells Beach presented by Ford Fiesta.
Stephanie Gilmore (AUS), 23, reigning four-time ASP Women’s World Champion and defending three-time Rip Curl Women’s Bells Beach winner, returned to her winning ways today, after bowing out early at the last event, the Roxy Pro Gold Coast.
"My first two years on tour I didn't have great results on the Gold Coast," Gilmore said. "I always bounced back at this event and then finished the year well, so hopefully I'll do that again this year. The Gold Coast was a fine showing of what women's surfing is up to now and everyone has to try and keep up. It really pushes me and I think anyone who wins an event from now on will be a very deserving winner because of that fact."
Pauline Ado (FRA), 19, the French rookie caused the upset of the women's event, defeating current ASP World Title front runner Carissa Moore (HAW), 18, in a nail biter of a heat.
"I'm really happy, I had a lot of fun out there," Ado said "I got one of my good waves in the first few seconds so after that I felt confident and knew I could be more selective and wait for the right wave. A heat against Carissa is always a tough one, so I'm really stoked to win."
When women’s competition resumes, up first will be Paige Hareb (NZL) and Jessi Miley-Dyer (AUS) in the opening heat of Round 2.
Event organizers will reconvene tomorrow morning at 7am to assess conditions for a possible 7:30am start.

Class 31 superpower - 31425 leads 31412 at Norwich with 1M59 0837 Great Yarmouth to Liverpool Lime Street, with an InterCity Mark 2 at the front. 47346 had worked the service in from the coast. At the time only a few Class 31s had been painted into the rather drab BR General plain grey livery; many later acquired a yellow stripe in what became known as Dutch livery. Note the tiny writing on 31425 to the left of the blue star "DR / 19 - 04 - 88" indicating the date of the last overhaul in Doncaster. With thanks to Dan Cross for the identification of the locos and service.

. . . . . During the years that the Keith feud dragged on, William Gordon was involved in other unsavory affairs. In 1591, he took part in one of the more celebrated murders in Scottish history, that of James, the “Bonny” Earl of Murray.
As so often, the cause of the problem lay in a feud involving property, that grew in size until the protagonists had no doubt forgotten the original cause, and the original protagonists had been replaced by their feudal superiors.
When the Grant laird of Ballindalloch died, his son was “tutored” by John Grant, and the “Tutor of Ballindalloch” started to take more from his young charge’s estate than the boy’s mother considered he should. It was the normal arrangement in those days for a Tutor to be appointed to educate the under-age heirs of landed estates if their fathers had died prematurely, and it was not uncommon for these Tutors to severely run down the estates that they had charge of, to their own benefit, before the son and heir was old enough to take charge of his own affairs. The ‘Widow of Ballindalloch’ however, was a Gordon, and in 1590 she sought the assistance of her own family, to protect her son’s inheritance. Legally, Grant was entitled, as Tutor, to do as he liked at Ballindalloch, so to strengthen their cause, the Gordons proposed that the widow of Ballindalloch should marry John Gordon, the brother of Sir Thomas Gordon of Cluny.
John Grant resented the idea that “anyone of the name of Gordon should reside at Ballindalloch” and as the situation deteriorated, an incident occurred in which he shot and killed one of John Gordon’s servants. To the Gordons of course, this was exactly the excuse they were looking for, and they had Grant declared “outlaw”, which in turn gave them the right, particularly by virtue of the fact that George, 6th Earl of Huntly was Sheriff of the county, to “pursue him”. Huntly himself arrived in force and besieged Ballindalloch castle, but John Grant escaped. The dispute now widened, as the Earls of Moray (Huntly’s hereditary enemy) and of Athole, together with Mackintosh of Mackintosh, the Captain of Clan Chattan, joined in on the side of the Grants.
Believing that Moray and Athole were forming a faction against him, Huntly pursued them, besieging Murray in his castle of Darnaway. Huntly sent the recently married John Gordon to take a closer look at the castle, and he, “approaching the house more hardily than warily, was shot and slain from the house by one of the Earl of Murray’s servants”.
The Earl of Huntly then hastened to court, and obtained a “commission” against the Earl of Moray from Chancellor Maitland (who disliked both Huntly and Moray, and cared little about what became of either of them!), which effectively gave him the right to pursue and arrest Moray.

Shortly about me:
It’s my passion to create stories and bring back pictures of events, people and places that are rarely seen. It’s a combination of exploration, exposition and artistry that together create a life of adventure and excitement.
In my work it is imperative for me that information be accurate and the images must be respectful of the subject and viewer. My goal is to combine creativity with practicality to capture the best possible images to document events, tell a story, meet the picture editor's deadlines.

CHURCH OF ST JAMES AND ST PAUL
(Formerly listed as:
EAST HILL
CHURCH OF ST JAMES)
II*
DATES OF MAIN PHASES/ NAMES OF ARCHITECTS:
C13-C15, with earlier origins; restored 1870-71 by SS Tenlon.
MATERIALS:
Flint and septaria rubble, partly faced with knapped flint. The tower has some Roman brick. Stone dressings. Roofs are tile and lead.
PLAN:
Nave with N and S aisles, N porch and W tower. Chancel with N and S chapels and N vestry.
EXTERIOR:
The church is the largest in Colchester, and stands on a hill, forming an important local landmark. The early C16 chancel is faced externally with knapped flints, and has a moulded plinth and buttresses with flush flintwork. The large perpendicular E window was partially blocked in the post-medieval period and heavily restored in the C19. The C16 N vestry is much lower than the N chapel and sits below a window. Both the N chapel and the N vestry have parapets ornamented with quatrefoil diapering embellished with carved flowers.
The nave and aisles have plain parapets. The nave clerestory was rebuilt in a Perpendicular style in the C19, as was the N aisle and N porch. The S door is also C19 in a C15 style, and the S aisle has heavily restored C15 windows. A partial C14 string course below the eastern windows of the S aisle is probably the remains of the S wall of a former S transept or shorter aisle.
The W tower is embattled and has brick quoins. The second stage has restored C13 windows of a single pointed light, with restored C14 two light windows in the upper, bell stage. There is a SE stair turret. The small, shingled spire was added in the C19, replacing an earlier, probably C18 lantern.
INTERIOR:
The interior is painted and plastered with exposed timber roofs. The early C15 chancel arch is very tall and wide and has a rood beam with figures. The tall 2-bay chancel N and S arcades have moulded outer arches and inner arches on attached shafts with moulded capitals and bases, forming a lozenge shape. A further arch on each side at the E end has a window. Below the N window is an Easter sepulchre, and there is a sedilia in the dropped sill of the S window. The roofs of the N and S chancel chapels are C16 and have curved braces. That on the N has probably C17 or early C18 repairs with the arms of the See of London. That on the S has the symbols of the Evangelists.
The tall, narrow tower arch has continuous mouldings and was entirely rebuilt in the C19. The arches from the aisles into the chancel chapels are C13 material reset in the C15, and may indicate the presence of former transepts that preceded the present aisles and chapels. The nave N and S arcades are of 4 bays and several periods, beginning with the two eastern bays on the S of the late C13 or early C14, then the matching bays on the N of the early C14, followed by the western two on the S of the early C15 and the corresponding bays on the N of the later C15. The earlier parts of the arcade were also partly remodelled in the C15. The Roman brick NW corner of the earlier unaisled nave is visible in the N aisle. The tower stair turret is accessed via a door at the W end of the S aisle. The nave and aisle roofs were rebuilt in the C19, but the N aisle roof has reused C15 brackets.
PRINCIPAL FIXTURES:
The church was reordered in the 1950s. Chancel piscina, C16 piscina in N chapel and a C14 piscina in S chapel. The chancel, S chapel and S aisle have sedilia formed by dropping the sills of windows. Statue bracket in S chapel, with a supporting angel. S chapel screen 1899-1900 by T J Jackson in a delicate Art and Crafts perpendicular style. Oak pulpit by H and K Mabbit, 1951. Glass of 1843 by Warrington in the S chapel.
Monuments: some good monuments, including brasses to John Maynarde, d.1569 and Alys his wife, d. 1584, the later a palimpsest on an older, draped figure. Wall tablet to Thomas Reynolds, d.1665 and his wife Margery, d. 1649. large standing wall monument to Arthur Winsley, d. 1727 with a semi-reclining figure in Augustan mode.
HISTORY:
The church of St James was first mentioned in the mid C13, but the architectural evidence suggests that it is considerably earlier. In the C13 it was held briefly by Coggeshall priory and later by St Botolph's before passing to the Audley family after the Dissolution. The NW corner of the long nave survives and has Roman brick, suggesting a C12 or earlier origin for the church. The long nave and possible transepts also hint at the presence of a pre-Conquest structure below the present building, but this cannot be confirmed. The tower was added in the C13, and also in the C13 the eastern bays of the S arcade were built. The arches into the chancel chapels also reuse C13 material, perhaps from former transepts. The eastern part of the N aisle was built in the early C14 and both aisles were reworked and extended in the C15. There were anchorites associated with the church in the C12 and C13, and in the later middle ages, it had an active parish life with several guilds that had altars within the church. The chancel was rebuilt in the early C16, and its chapels and vestry are contemporary. Little is known of work carried out on the church in the post-medieval period, but the tower was `decayed¿ in 1633 and the small lantern shown on it in early prints may have been C17 or C18. The advowson was in the hands of the Bishop of London in the early C18, which may provide a date of the repairs to the N chapel roof. The church had fallen into disrepair by the middle of the C19 and was heavily restored and partially rebuilt in 1870-1 to designs by S S Teulon (1812-73), a well known church architect. Samuel Sanders Teulon (1812-73), was a well-known and active church architect who worked primarily for Low Church clients. His work is often made striking by the use of structural polychromy and exotic architectural details. From the end of the C19 it has been a focus of high church worship in Colchester. There were further minor alterations in the late C19 and some reordering in the mid C20. A new vestry ('very horrible' Pevsner) was added on the S by Duncan W Clark in 1953.

REASONS FOR DESIGNATION
The church of St James and St Paul, East Hill, Colchester should be designated at Grade II* for the following principal reasons:
* Fine, multi-phase medieval church, heavily restored in the C19.
* Excellent C16 chancel, chancel chapels and N vestry with fine flint flushwork detailing and excellent work inside including C16 roofs to both N and S chancel chapels.
* Nave with arcades of the C13-C15, preserving evidence for a large, possibly cruciform, early church.
* Good landmark value.
