the lamented death of Mrs. Edwin Freshfield, a zealous and devoted Member of the Order. The Annual COITlmemoration Services in t.

The Grand Prior, who was graciously plea ed, as a mark of appreciation of their self-sacrificing devotion jn the cau , e of humanity, to undertake the duty of unveiling the Memorial erected by H.1\I. the King, H.R.H. the Grand Prior, and the Chapter, in St. John's Church, to the meuJOry of the 1\le111 Lers of the St. John Ambulance Brigade who died on service in 'onth Africa, the Order of Service being as fo11o ws :The Grand Prior was received at the Church Door on arriyal by the Chancellor and other Executive Officers of the Order, and by the Chief Commissioner of the St. John Am Imlance Brio-ude h , and by the Churchwardens, and conducted to his pew. At the conclusion of the Anthem, before the Sermon, a procession ,vas formed, headed by the Uhurch,\'ardens, and con isting of the Choir and Uhaplains of the Oreler wearing their canonicals. A processional hymn was sung by the Choir, the members of which, with the Clergy, grouped themselves round the :JIemorial. The Chancellor and the Director of the Ambulance Department, the Secretary-General and the Secretary, and the Chief Commissioner of the Brigade, conducted the Grand Prior frolll his pew to the Memorial. The Rector, the Rev. T. 'vV. ,Vood, a Chaplain of the Oreler, who h eld many services for the benefit of the men of the Brigade on the eve of their departure for the front, then addressed his Royal Highness the Grand Prior, giving SOllle particulars of the services of the 2,046 members of the Brigade in South Africa and. China, and especially referred to the gracious message recerved, shortly before Her death, from Her late lamented Majesty Queen Victoria, expressing Her high appreciation of the devoted conc1uct of those members who had proceeded to the seat of war in oreler to afford relief to their sick and wounded fellow-countrymen. . The Gr?vnd Prior then unveiled the Memorial, a bugler soundmg the" Last Post" at the conclusion.*

The Constn.ble ru hed at T

the horse's head, stopped it, and thereby prevented an accident.

The Receiver-General ha no

remarks to make ·with regn.rd to them, 1m t he is desirolls I1gl1in to impress upon the :Member of the Order the necessities of the Jerusalem Hospitl1l. 0 wing to a very handsollJ e, bn t unEortunately exceptionn.l, donation, the Hospitl11l1ppears this year with a balance to its credit, but the real condition of the Ho piLl11 i that it is not only not self-supporting but the normal annual deficiency of I1t least £400 has to be 111l1de up out of the general funds of the Order, nor is there I1ny possibility of curtailing the expenditure. Already 11 second Ophthalmic Surgeon has to be provided for the enbrged Hospital. The yery efficien t manner in which the Hospital ha ' been conducted by Dr. l1nt, aided by his aCCOlllplished and most helpful wife, has made it a model institution. The popularity which its efticiency has given it makes it certain that the expenditure will be increasell and not dimini.·hed. For selfish reasons the Receiyer-Genenll makes the call. e of the Hospital his Ol\'n, and urgently begs all the Confrere to support it fl.nd to induce their friends to do the sallle. The o' for thi. Grand Prior's sanction has l)een ug'iyell to becro'in bb t> Ineritorious object and the Receivor-Goneral is anxiously hopino. for the time ,vhen it will be self-supporting.

Rir John Fudey's benevolen t labours on behalf of the sick and wounded in war for th pa t forty years aro so well kno\vn as Lo need no further recapitulaLion h erein. A further pleasing acknowledgmont wa' the presentation by His Majesty tho King of the South African ,Val' Medal to thirtyone selected members of the Brigade at Buckingham PalacE', on the 31st May last. These proofs of approval from the Soyereign Head and P<.1.Lron of the efforts Inade by the Order in the cause of huma.nity will afford the strongest stimulus to all tho e connected with the Order and its Departments to spare no efforts to further extend and spread its area of public utility both at Home and in His Ma.jesty's British D ominions beyond the Seas.

It. is well-known that the Order is under a deep debt of gratItude to the Genealogist (formerly Librarian), for hi very handsome, numerous, and valuable gifts of books to the Library, but the Rev. ,V, K. R. Bedford has placed the J\1elllb 1's under n. further obligation by the puLlication of his "Rist.nry of the Order of the Hospital of St. J ohn of J el'llsalem," in which he has had the able co-operation of the present Librarian, Lieut.Col~nel R. Holbeche. The lvell-known work Ly l\1n,jor-GeneraI '~hItworth Porter had, owing to the date at which it was written, little or no reference to the progress and development f th Ambulance Department and other foundations of the Order bu t the present volume, besides heing a most handy an(l u~eful Inanual for reference, has brought the history of the work earrie(l on by the Departments dO'Wll to the time of the termination of the l'ec~11t South .Africal~ ,Val'. The Chapter is sure that it is only :~pressmg the wlshes of the m.em bel'S in tendering their very ~rate~ul ~hal1ks to the Genealogl st and to the Librarian for the compllatlOl1 of a work which will not only be of great utility as a. book of reference, but w~ll also be, and has been already, a great help to speakers at publIc meetings in the provinces 1111(1 e18e-

Dr. Jelly, who. e O1'\ico.' a ' an additional surgeon during the busiest part. of t.he year ha"\ e beon lllCntioned in the In ·t report, was unable to offen' himself for n. third period of temporary engagement: and tho COllunittoo \yero fortunate in being able to secure in hi, stead the 'on·ico of Dr. Harl'l on Butler, formorly a Hadclifio trayelling Follow, \vho entered upon hi duties in June last, and who 11a dischargod them to the entire satisfaction of the COlllmittee. The surgical statistics of tho Hospital, which haye beon reo'uIn.r]y kept in the accustollledmanner, do not diftor llwtori;llly from those of previous years, except in so far a ' they display a lightly diminished numb~r of attendancos. The diminution i. altributed by Dr. Cant to tho comparative lllilctnos of the ophthahuia of the two last yoars among the in11n bit ant· of J eru alem; and this again may in some ]lleaSUre be duo to the bettor knowledge of the danger' of neglect, a,nd of the possibilitio ot' cure by timely treatment, which the HospiLnl itself has boen the luea,ns of diffusing a,lllono' the pooplo. There has been no diminution in the demands proceeding 1'1'0111 the surrounding country, where,

indeed, the reputation of the Hospital is constantly extending, and its usefulness to the population increasing in a corresponding manner. In relation to this extension and increase the chief point of interest during the year has been furnished by the completion of the new buildings, upon which, together with necessary alterations and adaptations of pOl'Lions of the old premises, a sunl of £1,100, part of a sum generou ly given for the purpose by a single donor, has been expended. The result has been to afford increased accolllmodation and conyenience for dealing with the heavy out-patient depanment, and also to permit the raising of the number of beds for in-patients from twenty to fifty. It has constantly happened in the past that cases of great severity,coming from long distances, have been unable to obtain admission' and the Committee confidently hope for the future that it will be in their power to obviate this distressing difficulty. An increased nluuber of beds will certainly entail a corre ponding increase of the work in the most important department of the Hospital ; and for this reason, as well as to meet the wishes of the above-mentioned donor to the Building Fund, it is contemplated to appoint a permanent assistant surgeon to remain in Jerusalem throughout the year, and to take his share of the general duty of the hospitfl,l. This gentleman will supersede the temporary assistant of the last few summers, and will provide effectively for the continuance of the work in case of the illness or absence on leave of Dr. Cant. An increased number of beds will also require an additjon to the nursing or working staff of the Hospital, which has hitherto been extremely limited. It is unnecessary to point out that these changes, and others not at present foreseen which may arise out of them, must materially increase the cost of conducting the Hospital, and will demand that its present slender income should be augmented. The new buildings will be at least partially occupied during the coming spring; and, while the total annual cost hitherto has not exceeded £1,200, the Committee cannot but foresee that if the hospital with its increased accommodation is to be maintained, not only must this cost be greatly exceeded, but it may even be doubled, in the future. They, therefore, earnestly appeal, alike to the Members of the Order and to the general pul>lic, for such

donations and subscriptions as Inay suffice to place the work upon a satisfactory financial basis, and may allow the Hospital to increase its beneficent operations in a degree comruen 'urate with the demands upon them. The Committee have to record with much regret the decease of Mr. Gofton-Sahnond, their late energetic and laborious Han. Secreta,ry, for whose convenience the business of the institution was for some time conducted at 72, Cheo,pside. They are deeply indebted to Colonel \Vatson, C.B., o.1\1.G .. for his consent to undertake, at lea t for a period, the duties of the yacant office, and to l\1r. ,V. R. Edwards, the Accountant of the Order, for undertaking to collect subscriptions and to keep the accounts. They have to request that future correspondence concerning the Hospital may be addre sed to the Honorary ecretary, at the Chancery of the Order, 't..J ohn' Gate, Clerkenwell, London, E.C, I

St. john Blnbulance REPORT

FOR

Bssociation ~ 1902.

HE CENTRAL EXEOUTIVE C011l\IITTEE has the honour to' submit the following report for the information of H.R.H. the Prince of Wales and the Chapter of the Order of the Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem in England. The admirable services rendered by the t. John Ambulance Brigade in South Africa and Chinn. have received n. twofold recognition, first by the presentn.tion at Buckingham Palace in May last by His Majesty the King, the overeign Hen.d and Patron of the Order and Patron of the t. John Ambulance Association, of the South Africn.n "Val' medals to 31 selected representatives of the Brig<.l,de who hn.d served in South Africa, and secondly by the presence of H.R.H. the Prince of "Vales, Grand Prior of the Order and Pre iclenL of the Association, at a special Memorin.l ~ ervice held in J nne n.t St. John' Church, Clerkenwell, being the remains of the Choir of the old Priory Church of the Order. The Order of Service for the unveiling of the M8111orin.l was as follows :The Grand Prior was received n.t the church door on arrivn.l by the Chancellor and other Executive Officers of the Order, and by the Chief Commissioner of the St. John An1bulance Brign.de, and by the Churchwardens, n.nd conducted to his pew. At the conclusion of the anthem, before the sermon, n. procession wn. forn1ed, headed by the churchwardens, and consi ting of the choir n.nd chaplains of the Order wearing their cn.llonicn.ls. A processional hymn was sung by the choir, the members of which, with the clergy, grouped themselves round the memorin.l. The Chancellor and the Director of the Ambulance Department, the Secretary-General, the Secretary, and the Chief

Commissioner of the Brigade, conducted the Grand Prior from his pew to the lemorial. The Rector, the Rev. T. 'V. ,V ooel, a chaplain of the Order, who heJd many services for the benefit of the men of the Brigade on the eve of their departure for the front, then addressed His Royal Highness the Grand Prior, giving some particubrs of the services of the 2,046 lnembers of the Brigade in South Africa and China, and especially referred to the gracious message received, shortly before Her del1th, from Her late 1l11nented :Majesty Queen Victoria, expressing Her high appreciation of the devoted conduct of those members who had proceeded to the sea,t of war in order to afford relief to their sick and 'w ounded fellow -coun trymen. The Grand Prior then unveiled the :M emorial, a buglcr sounding the" Last Post" at the conclusion, The Grand Prior was then conducted back to his pew in procession as before. This appreciation by the illustrious heads of the Order must be as gratifying to the relatives and friends of the deCetLSed members of the Brigade as it is to the Chapter-General and members of the Order generally. His :Majesty thc King has further shown His desire to recognise the service of the Ambulance Department in the recent war by conferring the Companionship (Civil Division) of the Most Honourable Order of the Bath on Colonel Sir H. C. Perrott, Bt., Chief Secretl1ry of the Ambulance Department, and on Colonel C. BowdleI', Chief Commissioner of' the St ..J ohnAmbulance Brigade, and theCompl1nionship of the Order of St. Michael and St. George on Lieut.-Colonel C. J. Trimble, the Senior Provincial Deputy Commissioner, whose district had furnished nearly one-half of the total number of the Active Service Detachments. The Committee also cannot refrain from expressing its pleasure at the award of the Companionship (Civil Division) of the Order of the Bath on a former Director, Sir John Furley, and of the Royal Red Cross on Lady Furley, in recognition of their services on behalf of the sick ana wounded at the seat of war. The record of the past twelve months bears testimony to the continued extension and development of the work of the Department. It is specially satisfactory to refer to the successful

forml1tion of thc Drigl1de Bearcr Companies formed for the assistance of the Army "Meclicl11 Depl1rtlllent in time of war, and to the Auxilil1ry Royal N l1val Sick Berth I eserye, which will be largely composed of llwmbers of the Brigade, full partjculars concerning which will lJe found in the report of the Chief Commissioner.

Hib\)ert, K.C.B., at BaITo,y-in-Furne s, to employes of the Furne s Railway Company Centre, of which the Duke of Devon hire i Pre irlent, the Directors of this Company having presented a silver Coronation Shield for annual competition between the classes held at Bf\'l'l'ow-in-FLlrnes ', Ul \'orston, Millom and Moor Row. Not the least important meeting of the year has been one at Birminaham tate for b , when the residence of the Secretarv J of the Colonies was thrown open for the presentation of medals to forty men of the Birmingham Corps of the t. John Ambulance Brigade who had been on active service with the Royal Army Medical Corps in South Afri0a, the presentation being made by ~Irs. Chamberlain, and an address boing delivered by the Right Hon. Joseph Chamberlain l\1.P., who expressed his deep sense of the value of the services of tho e who had gone out to the front and had carried on "a pure ·work of humanity, giving their assistance indiscrilUinately and impartially to friend and foe alike." The annual competitions by representatives of railway COlllpanies and of the St. John AU1Lulance Brigade in First Aiel to the Injured was held, as usual, on the 9th May, at the Portlll::m Rooms. The Marquis of Breadalbane, K.G., Assistant Diroctor of the Ambulance Department, presided, and at the termination the Shield and prizes were presented to the successful teams by Viscountess Parker. The Hail way Challenge Shield pres n ted by the Order was won by the Metropolitan Hailway, the number of points awarded boing as follows :-Metl'opolitan Railway, 264 : North-Eastern Railway, 228; the South Eastern and Chatham Hailway, 206; Mersey Railway, 200: tho London and outh Western Rail way, 185. Badges of merit were awarded to the London and North Western Railway, Great Central Hail way, Great Eastern Railway, and the Midland and Great Northern J oint Rail way. In the Brigade competitions the Dewar Shield was won by the Wellingborough Corps and the Symons Eccles Cup by the Brierfield Corps. Prizes being also given to teams from the Metropolitan Corps (East Ham Division), the Ramsgate Town Division, and the Derby Corps.

The ooTateful thanks of the Oommittee were subsequently voted to the llledical men, viz., Drs. J. Brown and J. A. 'utherland, who so kindly acted as judges in the Railway final competition , and to Drs. Heaton C. Howard, and H. Irvin ellers, for judaing the Brigade competition. The °lively interest taken amon o' the Railway Companies employes by these competitions should be a source of considerable satisfaction to the tnLYelling public, and it is not less gratifying that the knowlodge acquired oy them is so practical and thorough.

12 "Since last report, the v,rar in 'outh Africa, after lasting nearly " three years, and having ab orbed a la,rge shan~ of the thoughts of .the "nation has been brought happily to a conclusIOn. Much of the tllne " and th~ught of the St. John Ambulance Association has been taken ~p " by the a ,istance given to the ~IedicaJ Depart~11en t of the .L~rmy 1Il "supplying Hospital O~'del'he. for \\"a1' duty 1Il I 'outh Afl'l~a,. bl~t "fortunately thIs has III no way detracted from the AsSOeH\,tIOn s "ambulance work in civil life, and it mu. t be remC'mbered tha,t the "original intention of . the I 'to ~ ohn Ambul~1.n~e .Ass?ciation was to "afi'Ol"d aid and help III the aCCIdents (1,nd lllJunes III our peaceful "industries, in the mine, on the railway, in our factories, on our roads, "&c. The tory of a great battle in whieh thousands fall in -tantly " arrests attention, but the constant sacrifice of life in the countless " accidents by flood and field does not make the same impre sion on the "community. There is something pic~ure, que}n "~he ~onfuse.d n<?ise of " the warrior and the garments rolledlll blood, whIch IS wantmg 111 the " daily tragedy of existence. Yet it was well said by a dif;tingui, hed " general (Lord Methuen) who fought through the whole I 'outh African " war, and was severely wounded, in a, speech at Bristol, 'he hoped his " 'comrades and he would not be spoiled by the fe, tivities in their " 'honour. They had done their duty as others, and their clangers were " 'no greater than those who went to sea or into the mine.' A, far as " mine accidents were concerned, I can speak with much former experi"ence, for it was my fortune in early life to be in constant (l,ttelldanee "on accidents in and about the collieries and ironwork,' around " ~ewcastle-on-Tyne. I remember Yery ,veIl about the year 1 50, " a very seyere explosion in that neighbourhood, when many men were "killed and severely injured, and being in daily attendance for a "lengthened period upon them. One thing, however, has b en loac1e " clear by the action of the I't. John Ambulance Association in the I 'outh " African war, and what had been indicated several years before, that in "the event of any emergency, the result of a great war, a 'f:ii -tance " would be available by the members of the Association, and the Ie SOllS " gained by the war will doubtless in the future lead to further u 'eful "assistance in times of emergency [md difficulty. Steps have b en " taken by the Central Executive Committee to secure this j and nothing " will conduce more to keep up efficieney in the eertificated mcm berf:i of " the Association than the pmctice gained by them in affording " assistance in the accirlents and injurief:i of eivilhfe. " In my remal'ks in last year's report allusion was made to the " accidents likely to occur from the introduction of electricity into our " various industries-mines, &c., and the treatment for such cases was " laid down. Since then, the Home Secretary has appointed a I 'elect " Committee to inquire into this subject with l'eference to mines, and to " report what measures should be adopted in the intercsts of safety by " the establishment of special l'Ules 01' otherwise. :Mr. A. II. I 'tokes, the "able Inspector of Mines, for J o. VIU. district (:JJidlancl) one of the " members of the Committee, says in a letter to me, under date October " 31st, 1902 " the Electrical Committee have a big order in front of "them. I have had three fatal aceidents-a pit-fire and a big explosion, " all from electricity." ''It may be interesting to take a short retrospect of what has been " effected during the past 50 years to lessen the injuries and loss of life " in our mines, and as I have been an observer of this subject during the "whole of this time, I can speak from some experience. Taking the "year 1851, the output of coal for the United Kingdom waf:i 53,000,000 " tons, whereas in 1900-50 years after-the output haclreached the very

The extension and development of brr111ches in the British DOlninions beyond the Seas will be amply shown by the locnl reports included in the appendix. Among the meetings therein referred to one of the most important gatherings was the tenth annual meeting of the Auckland Centre, the Governor, the Earl of Ranfudy, Knight of Justice of the Order, delivering an interesting address. The COllllllittee has to regret the loss, consequent, on her mal'l'iage, of the able services of Miss Greenway, the General Secretary of the New South vVales Centre, who had rendered valuable services in its developll1ent for many years past. An extension of Brigade work in this Colony has necessitated the appointment of :-Dr. G. Lane Mullins, P.M.O., as Commissioner; Dr. Stone Dixson, as Deputy-Commissioner; and :Major Perkins, D.S.O., as Medical Officer-in-Chief of the St. John Ambulance Brigade for New South Wales. A feature of work at one of the Canadian Centres, Toronto, has been a course of lectures to Officers and men belonging to the troops in the Garrison.

"I have the honour to bring; to your notice the good work done by (( 2nd Peon ~ 0, 11 922 Pancham of Phcenix Bay, in rendering fir~t aid to "an injured convi~t, No. 22,71 ,l:3herdad, wh~, while ,,-.or){inO' in th.e iro~l "factory at the workshop, accidentally recen-ed [tn ll1Jury to 1m; left "hand cau ing a badly contused and bleeding wound.

A vote of thanks has been unanimously passed by the Committee to Sir Richard Temple and his Medical Staff for the gnttifying result of the human ising influence exercised over individuals of such a type as the convicts in the Andall1an Islands by inducing them to take an interest in lectures for the alleviation of human sufierll1g. Continued interest is taken in ambuh"mce work uy the Police Forces of the country, both in the Boroughs and in the Provinces, and the greatest encouragmnent to its extension is afforded by the \¥ atch Committees and other governing bodies, and by the Chief Constables. Valuable service has been rendered by the six fully equipred horse ambulances attached to the Liverpool Police Station. The Head Constable reports that during the year the number of turn outs by these wagons was * It might be mentiolled that by a Settlement Order, ConvicL No. lJ,922, Pallcha.m 2nd Peon, was ],Ccolllllleudecl for one year'!; relllission of thc timc be would otherwise have to serve, ill recogn itioll of his having gi VCll cll'ccli ve (-irst aid to cOllvict No . 2:2,718 Shendad, when tlte latter ",as acciuclltally \volllluecl at the ~ T orkshops.

In the ity Poliee Force every n~embel' is compulsorily roquired to 0'0 through a c.oarse of ambulance instruction, and at I1n inque t hele1 some t~me back at the City l\10rtuary, ome interesting evidence wa gIven by an Ins1 ector as to how persons injured at fires were

2G treated. It ,vas stated that by order of the Chief Officer a special van for alllbulance purposes turned out at fires. This van contained all the accessories for rendering first aid, a certain number of the firemen on duLy being required to hold thomselves in readiness to render a i tance to the injured, while others turned their attention to saving life and property frolll tire. ...:U a trial at Hertford in February, when a ,yoman was charged with unlawfully wounding her hu band, a medical Dlan statod that the police sergeant who was called in rend~red prompt [mel effectiye fir t aid to a dangerou wound ill the head, and the judge recorded his opinion that if he had not done , 0 the woman would haye becn on her trial for nllll'der and nothinO' could have sa,ed her. Clas es for seamen both on board Hi l\laj esty's ship' and those of the jIercantile Marine are on the increase. Yaluable work is done in this direction by the Missions to 'eilmen in the East End of London and 01se"where, and at a recent annual meeting of the friends of the ~Iersey -:\Ii ion to Semllen, which was stated to be the "distinctive feature of the diocese," it was reported that last session no less than sixty-five sailors had pa sed the St. John's examination in first aid, whilo an ambulance gllilcl for the study of nursing at sea had been formed which had eighty !llen on its roll. Xumerouscompetitions to encourage efficiency and pormanency of knowledge are now frequently held as a matter of' routine. The Marquess of Northampton, President of the ~ orthampton Centre, has offered a handsome ch,l,llenge trophy to be COlllpeted for annually by Members of the Northampton Corps. A similar shield has been instituted at the Dundee Centre open to teams in Scotland, and this example has been followod in the Colonies, notably at Sydney, where an exceedingly handsome shield has been presented for this purpose by Surgeon Major Roth, D.S.O. The success of the special course of instruction in sick and district nursing held from time to time for Inany years past at St. John's House, VV mcester, ha:::; led to a similar course being instituted at the Chelsea Infirmary, where women who hold the Association's first aid and nursing certificates can undergo practical experience for a period of throe months. It is hoped

that Inany of those who are unable to join Nursino' Divisions of the Brigade will avail them elvos of Lhis opportunity of obtaininoan ?xtended and furLhor pracLical knowlod()'e of' Lhe su bj ects upon whlCh they have already roceivod limited instruction.

A TRUAL REPORT. TH E progress of the Centre is ,,,ellmarkecl. Commencing in 1880, it has gradually gained in puhlic estimation. In the large manufacturing work of the town very many workmen (hund.reds annually) meet \\'ith bOllily injury, and are illstantly attended to by ambulance men (fellow employes) with care and skill . Ambulance men atte~d the matcbes of the Barro,,- Football Olub, wbere they meet with a Dumber of cases requiring prompt skilful aid . Th e distribution of certificates anu medallions is an annual public ceremony in the Town Hall , the Mayor and .M.ayol'ess being present, comhined witb an exhibition of ambulance exercises, splintin g, l1andaging, artificial respiration, stretcher drill, &c., togetber witb nursing exerci ses by female members, bed-making, &c. There is a large public attenuance, and tbe d.emonstrations received ,yith frecluent loud applause. The current year's lectures and classes recently concluded resulted in the granting of certificates to 28 men and 21 women pupils, new beginners, and 8 women for hom e sick nursing. Th ere are also eligible for re-examination 31 men and 11 women first year's re-examination, and 22 men anJ 6 women second year's re-examination. The ambulance classes of Messrs. Vickers Sons & Maxim keep highly efficient; and at Vickerstown, in the Barrow Centre, a men's class has recently begun, k ept up 1Jy the I sle of W alney Estates Co .

A VEny successful first aid class for men was he1d at the close of last year, Dr. Dykes Robson being the lecturer. The examination took place on D ecember 19th, 1901, Snrgeon-1I1ajor HuttolJ again undertaking tile duty of examiner. Thirty members of the class in all were examineu, eight first aid, twelve first re-examination, and ten second re-examinations (for medallion), all of whom were successful.

A.NNUA.L REPORT. I N presenting the twenty-second annual report yom Committee record with pleasure the satisfactory progress the work of the Centre continues to make. T he Statement of Accounts shows a surplus of I ncome over Expenditure of £ 19 11s. 2d . , raising the funds of the Ass0ciation to £195 9s. 4d . , out of which the sum of £100 has been voted to t he Birmingham Corps of the St. ,J ohn Ambulance Brigade in order to aid th em in the purchase of stretchers, stores, uniforms, &c. During the year 22 classes have been held, 16 male first aid, 5 female first aid , and one nursing. Your Committee are 1,leased to state that four classes have b ee n held in connectioll with manufactories, and they again desire to draw the attention of all employers of labour to the importance of inaugurating classes in connection with thcir works . The amount received from Subscribers is £4 13s., being 5s. less than in the previous y ear . T he thanks of the Centre are most gratefully and cordially due to the several medical gentlemen who have conducted the lectures and to whose gratuitons labours the Associatiou continues to be indebted. I t is with much satisfaction that your Committee have to record the comple~ion of the Birmingham Corps of the St. J ohn A mbulance Brigade during the year that has just passed. Yom Committee arc very anxious to fOl'wal'll in every way the interests of this organisation, feeling as it clocs t hat the practical uscfulness of St. John Ambulance \vork depends on the members of the Corps. Funds are urgently needed for the pro\-ision of uniforms for those who have been proved efficient, and it if; proposed shortly to issue an appeal for this pnrpose.

Several n.ccicleuts have occl{l'I'etl ill DUlldee and eli triut tlurillg the past year, and it is no exaggcration to a se1't that but for the invaluable en-icc' rendercd by old members of the A,' ociation, they njight Juwe lJl'm-e<l mo t 'erious, if not altogether fatal. The OomlJlittee have reason to bclievc that the daily a,erage number of accidcnts treatcLI at the Dundee Royal I ulll'lllary is 3'5, allLl it lllU t lJe borne in mind that, in adllitioll to thc e case, there are a number of acl'iclcllts treated privately.

ANNUAL REP ORT. DURING the year 42 classes have been held in connection with the Centre, consisting of 29 first aid male, 8 first aid female, and 5 re-examinations. While the number of classes held has slightly diminished as compared to last year, the munber of those who have obtained Certificates is considerably mure than the number last year, this being specially noticeable with regard to t he issue of first aid certificates to men . A large number of the police force have obtained Certificates, and it is to be noted with pleasure that a large proportion of the certificates issued are for re-examinations, shewing that the men continue to keep their interest in the work, and qualify themselves for the medallion. One class in first aid has been held at the Y. W. C.A. while several members of the Y .M. C. A. availed themselves of t he opportn nity of

joining another class in the city to obtain medallions. Several classes have been held for tramway employes as well as amongst railway and colliery work people, and in connection with various places of worship in the city. Besides the above mentioned classes about twelve new ones have already commenced in connection with the forthcoming session. The Centre has with regret to record the loss of one of its oldest friends and supporters in the death of the late Mr. Charles Ryder. During the year 1111'. Ernest W. Beckett,1\[. r., has been elected President in the place of the late ir Andrew Fairbairn. Thanks are again dne to Mr. J. C. Kirk, c. A., who has so kindly audited the Looks and acconnts for the past year.

Fifty-five do, os Itaye been held during the past session in the tOWJl aud county; 37 men's first aiel, 3 men' nUl' ing, 12 women's ftrst aid, and 3 women's nursing. Altogether 749 certificates for fir·t aiel and nursing have been issued. The re-examinations were well attended; tlms proving a sustained interest in the work by those alroady ill pos ossion of the certilicl1te, anu a ll.esire to retain the knowledge they have acquired. 17;:; men wcre re-cxamined, 172 of whom passccl. 10 women also presented thelllselYe for re-examination, all of whom passeu. During the session 41 1I1en amI women became entitlell to pnrcha'e and WCHr the ll1edallion.

The progres' or the \\'ork mu.'l e\ er be hugely due to the energies of the Medical tafl', whose labours are willingly lllaced at the di 1'osl11 of the Oentre, an ,l to all of ",llOlll your Committe are (lecply grateCul. To the lIon. eCl'etalies of the difrerent classes great creclit is clue, 11 it i. upon their iUlli\'idual efforts much of the SUCceSS of the class depends. The anllll111 co III petition for the challenge shielu, ol,en to team from the Divisions of the tOWll alld county, took pll1ce l1t the Old Town Hall, on Thursday, February 27th, 1902.

It is with gratitude the Committee record an increase ill the number of annual suuseriptions, l1nd thank all those who, by their confidence and financial sUl)port, place in their hands the privilege of extending so noble a work. They earnestly llOpe that still further support will be grltnted them in this direction. The COUllIIiLtee believe that the important and extensive work now being carried on by the Centre, justifies them in making an eamest appeal for financial assistance; and they confidently express the hope thaL the public of the town and county of L eicester will, by their liberal support, assist them in maintaining the reputation of the Centre, as heing one of the larges t and most prosperous in the country.

L pre euting Lhe si:deenth D.nllualreport the Committee are pleased to noLe the continueu interest which is malliCc.ted ill the work of the t. John Ambulance A sociatioll in I. orLhal1lpLon and neigh lJoul'ltood, aud to expref; their thankfulness for the support bO ungrllLlginglyan'ol'llell them. E. pecially are their thanks due to their noble President, the .Mal'llui' of IT or thal11pton, who, with a yiew to encouraging ambulance work in the Centre, ho.' pl'ecnleLl a handsome a.nd l'o.lnable trophy to be cOlllpetell for anllually by Illemuer of the 1 orthamplon Corp' of the Brigade. The first competition has recently taken place, and arou ed the keene t interest. The Challenge Cup, I ... hich is of ::;oliu silver, tll'o-lHwtlled, anu elegantly Jlutell, after the style of the Georgian period, and having a ::;celle chased in uolLl relief representing an iujured Ulan ueing attended by a Illel11UCr of the Brigade, \\'a 1I'0n by a IT orLho.mpton Head-quarters' team under the cOlllmand of el'geant A. Lloyd, Earls Barton t eam under ergeant F. W. Austin ueing. econtl, and ergeant A. Sammons' Heau-quarters' team being tltin1. Prizes lI'ore given hy the Committee. At the same time competitions in first aid and llUl'f;ing by memlJers of the nursing Divi:ions for valuable prizes offered by Mr. J. Cooper, ,J. P., Vice-Presidcn t and Chairman of the Centre, took place. The proceedings were held ill Delapre Park in connection with the annual inspection of the Corps, tea being generously proviueLl by Mr. and Mrs. Cooper for members and visitors alike . The most important ambulance gathering of the year took place on January 4th, at the GuilJhall, when Earl Spcncel', K. G., Lord Lieutenant of the County, presentcd war medals to those members of the Corps II'h o had served in South Afl'ica. The Mayor (Councillor F. G. Aclnitt, J . P.) occnpied the chair, and wa s upported by tbe Marquis of Northampton and many others, excellenL speeches being made and much

173

172 enthusiasm shewn. 8ergeant A. Lloyd had the honour of receiving his medal personally from the King on May 31st at Buckingham Palace. The work of instruction in first aid and nursing has been vigorously carried on, classes having been held at Northampton (6), Dallington, Gayton, Davedry, Bugbrook (2), Northants School of Domestic Economy (2), and Stoke Bruerne, a total of 14 classes, 313 pupils, 265 certificates, and 71 medallions. The County Borough of Northampton has this year for the first time made a grant towards ambulance in tructlon, thi has already proved of great benefit, and 0111' thanks are due to the 'Worshipful the Mayor and others who interested themselves in the matter. 510 l!asesof first aid have hecn reported during the year, while the Invalid Transport Service have rcmoyed 72 patients, and the ambulance carriage has journeyed 756 miles. The sum of £4-0 has been spent in the purcha e of ambulance material, and for nece sary repairs to wagon. The Committee congratulate Chief Superintendent Perry and Privates Cox, tevenson, and Higgins upon being awarded the ervice ~ledal of the Ord er. The re ignation of Chief Superintendent Perry from the office which he ha. held with such disti.nction for thirteen years has been received with great regret, and the bemtie t thanks and best wishes of this Committee have been tendered to him on his retirement. The death of the Marchioness of N ortbampton has taken from us onc whose deep interest in our work was always assured, and the deepest sympathy of the Committee is tendered to our noble President in his great SOlTO\\'. In conclusion, the thanks of the Committee are tendered to Messrs. Hughes and Co. for the provision of office accommodation, to the Governors of the Infirmary for the use of the ont-patients' building for lectures, etc., to Mr. J. Hall for his kind help in keeping. tores at the I nfirmary, and to Mr. G. IV. Gordon for his gratnitons ervices as auditor.

1'rca ·Ill·cr.

D UlUNG the pa t year, classes ha\'e been h eldon1), at Great Brickhill, Fenny Stratford, Newport Pagnell, Olney, and 'Vol,erton. This shows a sad '\'ant of ambulance training in tb e 'Western division of the Centre, as all the above named places are in the Northern and Eastern di,isions. Th e Committee trust that some of the medical staff will try and urge tbe Technical Educatioll COllllnittee to take the matter up. T he Silver Challenge Cup Competition took pla ce thi year at , iVeston Underwood, by kind invitation of Major Bowy er, R.E. Eight teams only entered and the cup was awarded to th e ,Yolvertou junior team, the work, done hy tlle r e p ectiv e teams, was, however, of a much higher standard than of previous y ears.

A i JUAIJ REPORT. DURIKG the year 19 classes have been held, an increase of five on the lwevious year, as follows :-9 male first aid, 6 female first aiJ, 4 female nursing, Since the for!nation of the Centre 16 years ago, 2,449 perso1l'l have received the first aid certificate, and 293 medallions. On ?!fay 31st last, \\ar medals were presen ted by the Mayoress to 18 members of the Rochdale Corps who had performed duty in South Africa, and the same day Private Harrop received his at the hands of His l\Iajesty the King. The provision of horse ambulances and other appliances in the L1istrict covered by the Centre is highly gratifying and will compare favourably, it is thought, with any other part of the country. There are 6 horse ambulances, 9 "heeled litters, 40 stretchers, 51 wall boxes.

Oarter, in February last. Dr. Cartel' was the piolieer of ambulance work in this district, his first class having been held in the antUlllll of 1886 in the I nstitute at S~ltai~·e. From that date up to the time of his death he nnl>tintingly gave his serVIces 111 furtherance of this work. 0 wing to this loss and the removal from the district of Dr. ,'. Graham, our other lecturer, we have held no classes Juring the past year. .Arrangements have, however, been made fol' the continuance of om' work {luring the coming winter.

The instruction of so many students nece sarily entails a great amount of selfdenying labour by the honorary medical staff, aUll the Committee take this ol)portnnity of thanking the Surgeon III tructors for their valuable and gratuitous services, likewise the Honorary Class Secrotaries for their services to their respecti\-o classes. It will l)e noticed that the flee classes have been again continued, the expenses of which) are paid 1y a grant from the Technical Etlucation COll.mittee; we gratefully acknowle!1ge this snpport from the South hields Corporation, bringing as it does the opportunity of obtaining am bulau<.!e instruction \\'ithin the reach of all classes of the community. The interest in the ladies classes is maintaincd, nursing and fir t aiel classes ha\'e been held cluring the IJast year. ,,'Ie WCI ld awtin point out that from these classes, the ladies nursing guild and the ladies division of the St. John Ambulance Briga,cle are recruited. To :i\liss Rohson and Miss Skinner ,,'e are again indebted for their continued interest in the \\'ork. Both in the Borough Police and River Police the work is ,'\"ell maintained, likewise the Volunteer Life Brigade, practically the whole of the members of these bodies being all qualified ambulance men, and their kindly co-operation \\'ith the Committee of this centre is fully appreciated. '1'he Oommittee again record with pleasure the assistance and interest taken in the ambulance movement by Captain Bayham and officers of the '\Vellesley training ship; two very successful classes have been held aboard the ship during the past 3esc;ion. As in past years, we would again point out that we do not schedule the many cases where timely help has 1een given and life saved by our stUdents, but from reports we receive it is well known that there a.re very many accidents occurring every year in which suffering has 1)een relieved by ambulance men and women, and for this reason the Committee is encouraged to continue their labours llnd to hope for the continued bUpport of the (;ommunity in upholding and ]!reserving the best traditions of this department of tIle old and honourable Order of St. J olm.

I ,UE OF OERTIFI('AT!':S held-1 for females (conducted by Dr. W. Perrin Brown) for instruction in nursing, and 1 for males (conducted bS Dr. Dunn) for instruction in first aid. The clu se have been very successful, for which great credit is due to the instructors, and to the students for the interest they have taken in their studies. The Committee ha\'e much pleasure in stating that a detached branch of this Centre has been opened at Luddenden Foot, under very promising circumstances. with the Rev. J. l\Ieredith as Hon. Secretary, and Dr. Thompson, of l\Iytholmroyd, as lecturer. The ambulance carriage has been used 1 times since ~Iarch 1st, 1901. Stu(lents have rendered valuable assistance in the removal of accic1en t cases anel invaliJs. Two eli tinct cases of first aiel the Committee wish to mention. The first at Ellison :Memorial Schools, ,,'here a boy hael the misfortune to fractnre his thigh, whilst at play; the econel at the works of Messrs. Summerskill, machine tool makers, where a lad had his foot seyerely crushed by machinery; both these cases having haPl1eneJ ,,,hil t the doctors of the town ,yere out on their visiting rounds. It is again a pleasant duty to renrt with sincere gratitude to the continued devotion of the medical staff, Dr. Dro,Yn and Dr. Dunn, who are unceasing in rendering gtatuitous services in in trncting stuclents. 'Vithout their yalnable assistance certificates of past years coulcl not have been obtained. The Committee beg to tender their most hearty thanks to all subscrihers and friends who haye in any ,yay helped on the work. In conclusion, t11e Committee beg to impress on all present the growing necessity for a knowledge of how to render first aid in cases of accident 01' sudden illness, and so be the means of saving much suffering and, may be, human life, and trust the new classes may be more

218 A :rNUA.L REPORT.

IK presenting the twelfth annual report of the New South Wales Centre of the t. John Ambulance As ociation, the Council have much pleasure in referring to the increasing activity of the work of the Centre. Public Annual ~l[eeting.-Held 21st December, 1901, ,,.hen Sir James Graham, Mayor, pre idec1. At this meeting a silver shield was kindly presented by MajoL' Roth, D.S.O., for competition by St. John Ambulance Brigade Corps; the rotiJ:ing Secretary, ~Ii "s Greenway, was the recipient of a souvenir of esteem and appreciation from the 'iYestern Suburbs Branch. The presentation ,vas made by Sir James Graham , the Chairman of the meetin 0Cf • The Police Baml were killllly allowed by Mr. E. Foshery, to give their services. Lieut. -Colonel Yalldelenr Kelly returned to this tate from actiye service in South Africa, and ,yas \yelcomed back to office, and a little later the Centre lost one of its oldest friends, Lieut. -Colonel Parrott who left New South Wales to take up his re 'iJence in outh Africa. The committee and members held a farewell meeting at the office: Equitable building, and in the various speeches made on that occasion Lieut. -Colonel Parrott's work in furthering St. John Ambulance A.ssociation in this State was hown to be fully allpreciated. Secl'etal'y.-In January, 1902, ~Iiss Greenway, \\"ho, for ele,en and a half years had acted as General Secretn,ry, resigned her position. The Conmlittee pre ented her with a purse of sovereigns as a mark of e teem and appreciation, and the members of the Association also presented her with an illuminated address and gold bangle on her marriage. At the January Committee meeting, Miss L. F. Lockyer was appointed to 5ucceed ~Iiss Greenway as Secretary. Your Committee received in June the gTatifying news that the Grand Prior and Chapter of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem, in England, had presentell a \011U111 vote of thanks to the late Secretary (Mrs. Greenway-1HiddO\\s) fOT "valuable and distinguished services rendered." The Committee are taking steps to secure reliable information with regard to rescue work in connection with the recent :Mount Kern bla disaster, in order to recommend to the H ead Centre, London , the names of those who specially distinguished themselves, for the award given by the Order of St. J Oh11 of J erusalelll for" special acts of bravery in saving life on land." Largely-attended public meetings have been held in the city, suburbs, and country districts, for the l)Ul'pose of forming classes and presentation of certificates. The Minister for Public InstTUction has again been pleased to have classes form ecl amongst the students in training at Fort Street and Hudstone Training Colleges, Major Roth being the lecturer. Hitherto the Association has received no financial aid, either from the Government or City Council. Throughout the period of twelve years, during which the work in this State has been in operation, the only funds, with the exception of a few small donations, have been those mainly derived from the surplus fees of the various classes. During the past two years, however, the Hospital Saturday Fund has made a small grant to this Centre, In England, nearly all the town and county councils subsidise the work in:Some way, in some cases by bearing the expense of teaching the classes, in others by the contribution of annual sums of money, but in all the municipal areas the fact is recognised that the work of the St. John AmlJlllance Association is of the greatest value to the municipal governing body . A wheeled litter has been procured by the residents and ambulancers at Ballina for public use, and also by the Corporation of Wollongong.

ANNUAL REPORT . THE Council of the Victoria Centre of the St. John Ambulance Association have much pleasure in presenting the nineteenth annual report to the memLers and subscribers. The Council report with regret the death of Dr. W . Snowball 011 April 22nd, 1902. He was a member of the Council from May 6th, 1890, until last January, when he was obliged to resign, owing to failing health. III May, 1901, H .R. H. the D uke of Cornwall and York, K.G., Grand Prior of the Order, and

Preside n t of the Association, visited Mclbourne. T he ambulance arrangements necessary on the proces iOIl routes were admirably arranged by the Melbourne City Council. 0 fewer than :ixty certiflc:ateu. members of this Centre volunteered their services, and acted in conjnnction with the Military Ambulance Corps. During tbe year, thirty-two classes have l)ee11 instructed. The receipts from class fees show a slight increase, hut still are insnfIicient to pay the working expenses, which have to be met by canya'~illg for .'nhscriptions. That Lhe ambulance wagon has provcll a groat boon to the public, hoth iu cases of acci{lent and in the transport of invalids, is evi<lenced by the fact that it has IJeell callefl out over 500 times during the past twelve mouths. The Council (lesire to ackuowlc(lge the valual.Jle as. istance which hief Officer tein Ita rendereu in sl1jleriutenuillg tlli. work; also to exprc s thanks to the Metropolitan Fire Brigade Boai'll, who so generously permitted it to he carried on until, owing Lo the inclcasiug dcmalld Oll the seryice' of their officers anLl men, and on the tillle of thL' horses, the Brigade fouud it necessary to regue-t the Council to recou]! them fol' the actnal cost of maintaining this sen'ice.

The OOllncil 0.1'0 glltll to note the increasing appreciation of r\,mimlance classes. Such ebsc. have been held in conuection with public aUtI privatc school', mechanic' institutes, schools of mines, t(;cltIJical colll'ges, Lhe Australian Natiyes' A sociation, young men's and wOlllcn's tts.'ociations, "iris' friendly societie., amI kindred a 'socia tion' that alronl special faciliti s for oJ'gani::iing awl holtling clas'c' ; and also in conllJction with IlHlllnfactnrilllf C'o1l1pallil's, snch as the Decr Pn.l'k Explosives COIllrHillY, The IJellJical ,York ', Till. ,'ngar 1 C!illing OOlllpany, The Mutual .'tore, etc. The Council ag.till desire to il1l}lres' 011 the J\liuister of Education, the Principals of schools, aw l all e(lueaLiolll1.l institutions, tho importancc of fOllning clas es and having their pupils taught what Lo do in ca.·es of accident athL suuden illnes until the aid of a lllcllical practitioner l'<ln ],e ohlaincrl. Ability to render fir~t aid is undouhLedly an illlPortant branch of kuowleflge.

A ' an iJl(lnccmeut, lhe fee for s<'11001 pupil ha been l'clluced to five silillin· r ::; for a COl\l':-;C of lectUl'e:; on lirst aill, and a certificate is awarded on passing au eXl1.minatioll. The anllual specilLI examilHttion for valuable prizes is hcW in the mon th of March each year, anel is open to all \\'ho since the IH'cYious examillatioll lllay haye obtaineu much crellit ill any fir t aid examination: aUlI was atteuded Lhis ycar by 28 members. This examination acls a a timnlns to the ,'tc'luirement of a moro thorough kno\\,leflge of how to rellllel' first aill to the injlll'ell, as evil1enccll I,y the high percentage of marks ohtaincd an(l Lhe eXL'ellence or the practical" ork. 639 pupils ha \ e been instrul'lell dnring the year, of whom -119 pas 'ell their exumination for certificate, and 20 completc(l their COUl' e for medallions.

222 The Council tender their grateful acknowledgment for the subscriptions and donations received during the past year. The list of life members ha been increased by foUl', whose names appear in another portion of this report. The Council beg to tender their sincere thanks to these member , anu ~'onld be glad to add others. The qualification for life members is a donation of five guineas, and sLlch donations enable the Association to extend its operations in instruction, and to maintain the ambulance service. In order that certificated members may remain in touch with the Association, and to keep up the knoldedge acquired so as to be ready to render first aid efficiently, the Conncil again desire to impress on all hon . secretaries the need of estahlishing a class for the practice of bandaging, and so on iu each subCentre. These classes may be held monthly or qnarterly, or at any interval, and in such place or places as may be most suitable for those wishing to meet. The first practice clas' was organised by Miss 111. G. Billing, han . secretary, Prahran, and similar classes shoulcl be held where,er practicable. The annual statement of receipts and expenditure, duly audited, shows a balance of £93 6s. 7d. to the credit of the Centre. Against this there i a liability of £100 to the Metropolitan Fire Brigade. New Sub-Centres have been opened at Boort, Dimboola, Queenscliff, and Rokewood. The annual examination for prizes of the value of £5 5s., £3 3s., and £1 Is., offered by the Council, and open to all pupils who have passed any first aid examination with much credit during the previous tll'elve months, was helel, by permission of his worship the Mayor, in the supperroom of the Melbourne Town Hall on Saturday, March 15th and 22])d, 1902. Thirty candidates presented themselves, and were examined by Dr. Charles Bage anel1l1ajor Horne, on whose report the Council awarded the first prize to Miss Catherine Ronald, Ballarat ub-Centre; the second prize to Miss ]Hande Webb, Ballarat Sub-Centre; the third prize to Miss Alice Craig, of the Cam berwell Sub-Centre. The Conncil again desire to place 011 record their continued indebtedness to the medical gentlemen who have so generously given their time and labour to the instruction of classes in Melbourne and suburbs, and throughout the tate; to the ladies and gentlemen who have so willingly undertaken the duties of hon. secretary, and to whom the success of the Sub-Centres has beeu mainly due; and to the press, for the courteous manner in which they have opened their columns when requested to make public the philanthropic efforts and work of the Association, and to other numerous friends who have in many ways helped to further the interests of the As ociation. The annual distribution of the medallions and certificates awarded to those WllO passed the necessary examinations during the past year, took place in the Melbourne Town Hall, on the evening of Monday, 28th April, 1902. His Excellency the State Governor macIe the presentations. The Ambulance Corps, under Major Horne, M. n., formed a guard of honom' to receive His Excellency. Dr. J. E. Neild, Presiuent, presided.

ANNUAL

REPORT.

T HE Committee have much pleasure ill presenting to the members the tenth allnual report of the Centre. The most important event of the past year has been the yisit to the Colony of Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duehes of Oornwall and York in June last. The fact that His Royal Highness is no,,, the President of the St. John Ambulance Association increased the interest felt by the Committee and members of the Centre. As ours was probably the first Centre to i. sue its annu'll report after His Royal Highness was graciously pleased to accept the position of President of the Association, your Secretary sent copie8 of that report to His Ro) al Highness, which he kindly accepted . Before the arrival of Their Royal Highne ses a number of members of the Assooiation held practices at the office of the Oentre, .0 as to be able to assist the Bearer Co. on the day of the Reception. Various stations along the line of route were provided with stretchers, manned by members of the Bearer Co. and of the Association. Fortunately, there were no 'erious aeci(lents. I n a number of minor cases efficient first aid was rendered . The Committee would take this opportunity of thanking Messrs. A. Myers, C. A . Harris and W . E . Woodward, Colonel \Yhite, and Drs. Parker and Williams for the usc of stations, and Mr. G. H. Powley for having had flags to designate the stations made without cost to the Centre. The usual classes have been held in the city. T he female central first aid class, to which D r . A. Challinol' Purchas lectured, was attended by 13 ladies, of wh om 10 passed. At the female nursing class, to which the same gentleman lectured, 9 ladies attended, of whom 4 passed, 3 being unable to atten d t he examination. F or

227 and the general public for the sum of £200. Of course, if this appeal meet with a generous response, and a larger sum is provided, the public will receive the benefit in the form of a larger number of litters. While gratefully acknowledging the splendid work done by the members of the Auckland Bearer Company, many of whom are also member. of the St. John Ambulance Brigade, the Committee are much pleased to learn that the Auckland Corps of the Brigade is being re-formed as a separate institutioll, and will be prepared to co-operate with the Committee in the care and use of the A hford litter., it is proposed to procure. The St. Jolin Ambulance Brigade, though not under the control of the Committee of the Centre, but. under that of its o\,n Chief COlllmissioner at St. John's Gate, always works amicably with the Committee, \yhich renders it every possible assistance. The Secretary will be pleased to recei,e the names of any holders of the fir t aid certificate who are willing to join the Brigade ut his office, Mercantile Cham bel's. III concluding their report, the Committee beg to tender their sincere thauks to His Excellency the Governor, and the Countess of Ranfurly, for the great interest they have all-mys taken in the work of the Centre, and the kind as i tance thcy haye rendered; to the mem hers of the honorary medical staff who haye lectlll'ed during the past season; to Drs. Ginller, Grant, Goldie, Knight, Lindsay, LOIYe, l'IlcDowcll, Murray, Parkes, Pentreath, 'Walker and ,Villiams, and Messrs. Tunks & Pilkington for conducting the examinations; to Misses Sorley, Davis, and Scott, and Mes rs. Stubbs, Stallworthy, Champtaloup, Atkins, and Clarke, for their nlueLI as istance as Hon. Secretaries; to 1111'. A. S. Russell, for kindly acting as hOll. auditor in the ab ence of Mr. Twentylllan; to His Worship the Mayor and the City Councillors for their kindness in placing the Committce Roollls at the disposal of the Cen tre; to the eclitorial staffs of the Be1'ald and Sta?' for much valuahle assistance; and to the donors of subscriptions and donations for their contributions.

ANXU AL REPORT, THE Committee of the Centre has to rcport :-The number of classe held under the Centre this year has not been so great as in somc former years. This is, however, not to be accounted for by decreased intercst in the w01k I elformed by the associatioll, because in those classes which have been held the attcndancc at the lectures alld also the attention of members has been gratifying. But during the year there was a cOllsiderable numbel of functions held, such as the entertaining of the Duke and Duchess of C01'11wa11 and York, the visit of the Imperial and Indian Troops, anrl the excitement consequent Oil tbe departure of contingents, and these excrcised a disturbing infiucllce on such a matter-of-fact thing as ambulance work, a::; well as on everythilJg else. It ll1LU,t be borne in mind, too, that our members are recruited to a large extent from the class of young men who llave gone as soldiers to South Afri.::a, and while we ban missed them at our classes it is pleasing to know that the ambulance training they received from llS hlS been of immense use to them . On the goldfields part of the Province, whcre a knowledge of how to act in case of accident should be of so much importance, it has been found that little enthusiasm can Le aroused, but the agricultural population takes more interest in acC]uil'ing the knowledge requisite in casualties pending the arrival of thc meJic:.LI man. Classes can only be held in ccntres of population where a doclor resides to lccture and another is within reasollable distance to conduct the examination ; conseclu ently, where most needed-that is, in places remote from a doctor-it is unfortunately difficult to have the people instructed.

If anything shows the iuterp t taken in the a soeiation's work it is the fact that many of the membf'l's of the classes travel very long distance::; to attend the lectures; twelve miles going all(l the same retul'lling is not uneOllllllon . Tbe classes helll in Dunedin were well attewler1, ana the results as disclosed IJY the number in each cla who came up for examination at the conclusion of the winter's work, as well as the large proportion of pas e ', show the iutere t taken in the moral and practical teachiug. Dr. \Y. M. 'tellhouse leetnre<l to the men's clas::;, Dr. Macpherson to the women's first aid clas', and Dr. \Yill to Lhe nul' 'iug class. Dr. 11. A. de Lautour examined the men's das., Drs. Will and Riley the women's first aid class, and Drs. Macpherson and 13. E. de Lautour the llursing ChUiS. It is compulsory before obtaining a diploma from the Ilivcr ity as a mine manager to haye a t. John AnlbulallCC Association certillcate. lYe havc as usual ilLi1'l1ctecl several of the U"iversity student. Be ides conducting the ordinary classe::; the Centre ha cX[lll,illCd, through one of it medical stafl' (Dr. Will), a das of San'll Yolunteers, whicli ",a' instructed Ly ll1'geon-Captain Fulton. In arldition to these, twcnty-thrce membcr' of the Bearer Company who wcre tanght by • 'urgcon-~lajor Clo s anll --' ul'geon-Captaill tephenson, were examined on behalf of the Cculr by Dr. Fulton. In Tal'UllUi Dr. Robertson lccturcd to cIa ~es in mCIl's first aid, allll women' fir t aid and uursing; Dr. G. A. Copclnnd coming Crolll UOI'C to conllueL the exalllination. In Oamal'll the Lranch there held the usual cIa se . The thanks of the Ccntre, ancl indeed of the whole populatioll, are due to tho e mc\lieal gentlelllen in the couutry "'ho have, at much trouble to themselyc', enahler1 many to rend!'!' tempol'Ury a "i t<lllce to those at a distance from skilled aid till ib rtrrivul. 'rhe \.mullla.nce Corp', both in Dllueclin and Oamaru, have been rendering ail1 \Yheu nccc,;sary. During thc vi:;it of the Duke and Duchess of York, the lllclllhers \\'cre called out to ~i\'c a ' i:;tance with tlle memhers of the Bearer COlllpany iu accidcnts. The XU!' 'illg orps continues its goocl work ill an ullostentatious way, and WhCll occasion a1'O,'C during the Dukc alld Duchc s's tay in town seveml llIellllJer \\'cre to th o fo!'c. Dr. Barnett llu ' again earued the thank 0[' the Centre for the ycry great intcrct he ha taken in thc Corps work, and the in\'aluuule hclp hc 11u given. The Centre joine,l the other Centres in an atldl'c' to the Duke of York, on the occa::;ion of his visit to cw Zealn,llll. IIitllt:rto, thi Centrc, unlikc othcr Centrcs, Colonia,l allli olhcr, has pursucll a ell'-rpliant policy, tl'll':iting to pay its way out of mcmbers' sulJscl'iptions without a king oUlside monetary n · i::;tance. Thi, the Committee realises, i: a 111i Lake. Thorc are many things which could lJe clone for the unfortunatc sufrcrillg had thc OOlllmittee the rnntl' IIcce 'sar,)'. In Christchurch and \\Tellington, the COlllmittce of those Centres have horse <lmhulancc cltl'1'iages of a superior kind, which, while bcing Jargely nsed for com'eying perso11s \\'ho ha\'o mct with accidents to Lhe hospital or theil' homes, are also of great benefit in moying invalid.s when shifting from one part of the town to another. '1'hoe lJelonging to the two Centres ale largely availed of, which prove that they are of great utility. In cases where it call be done a charge is made for the ,'cl'\'iee to lllty for the upkeep, but in other ca, es the service is gmtuitous. As tllO illitial cost is great aud tha Committce's funds are harcly slllli(;ient to carryon its lll'esent work of teachillg', it is ill1possiLle to undertake this, and the Oommit t l' e proposc to ask the public for thc necessary funds . 'rhe gaiu being confincd to no particular class, lmt fill heillg possibly likely to bcnefit, the requisite monetary I1ssistaucc might be spread over and should not be felt. In many places in Britain thc puLlic bOllios, neh as City Councils,

23 1

230 make grants to the branches of St. John Ambulance Association in their districts. Only on one occasion during the twelve years of this Centre's existence has it appealed for as istnnce. This was on the occasion of the procuring of the two-wheeled litters \Thich ha\-e proved of uch value, and the appeal was liberally responded to.

AN U.\'L

REPORT.

THE: South India Branch of the 'to John Ambulance Association has been making satisfactory progl'e s. It ha:; now lJeen a year in operation, it having been inaugurated in April, 1901, and the result of the past twelve months hold out assuring prospects for its future welfare. In Madras itself', along the railway lines and the Mofllssil, the work bas heen, l111tl is l)eillg, calTiecl on unostentn.tiously but steadily, and although DO doubt had it been lllore extensively a(lvertised [ro111 the platform or in the pres', it might have attracted more public attention; yet this has not been so much the object aimed at as to instil local interest in, and secure local acknowledgment of, the lJeneJlts to he deri "cd from 'llJlPortiug and fllrtlleting such an excellent institution. Up to this we have been content to rely upon resnlts rather than adverti ement, and gauge the advancement of the South Indiall Branch of the A 'sociation accordingly, antI by these result .. we arc jll"tifil·d itl the feeling that the teachiugs of the St. John A.mbulance As ociation here have taken permanent root, and arc gradually Imt 'urely sprealling all oyer thc 'outhem Pre.'idency. 'Wherever (IUalified Lecturers and Examiners are avai.lable, classe. of instruction in fir t aill and nul' ing have been antI n,re heing held, and the lIon. "C'ero1aI'Y continue to recei"e application from the Mo[ussil for illstrnctions unent the forllJation o[ Centres, etc. In order to facilitatc thi. he ha hn,d a brief precis of direction' printed [or llistribntion and guidance. I t is hoped that a. the propaganda preacl further aft ·lel, and by their practical applir-ation the advantages to be gained from the teaching:; of the A 'oeiation become more generally rccogni etl, medical mell and laymen will come forward in larger numbers to help on a work ,,,hich JUU, t by it hun~al1ity alone appeal to all. It would take up too much space to mention the number of ca e' thn,t haye occurred during this pu. t year where thc ah.ellee of' the knowledge of flrst aid lla led to unnecessary suffering, but the. e h,n e hecn llumerons, and Dr. J. Currie, who has taken such activc inlere't in the work along the Madra Railway, can it is believed, corroborate this from personal experience. To the ecretaries of the Y. W.C.A. amI the Y.M.C.A., the local Centre owes its sincere thanks for the great supporL they, and their admirable in. titution , have afforded it. There have been and are always plenty of candidate ready to come forward from these to attencllecture. n,n<l present tbemselve for examination, but unfortunately owing to thp. difliculty of securing qualified Lecturers and Examiners in proportion to the candidate', many arc still \yn,iting for the required opportunity. Speaking more especially of Madra., the work hn,s almo t [allen entirely upon Captains Niblock and Harrison, I.:lI.;;., who haye most eli interestedly and generously devoted their timC', talent, amI zeal toward carrying out the lecture and examinations, while Dr. J . Ourrie, the ~ledical Officer of the ladl'l1s Railway, has been o[ the utmost assistancc allel !tas done fLn immense amount of good for the cause 011 the rai.l way Ulhler his medical charge. Dr. .M cCaully Ibycs has been similarly helpful on the Sonth In <iin,ll Rail",,1\'. '1'11e thanks o[ the A sociaiiol1 are due to the rail way co]))pa11 irs for their liber;.l ofTel' of free passes, etc., for medical officers depnted to carry ont lectures and p'xull1ination. Thanks n,l'e also due to othel's,who h uve, in so far as lay in their power, rende red aid to the can e.

SOUTH AFRICA. CAPETOWN CENTRE. Formed 1 91. TilE following report (1 99 to April, 1902), has heen reccived from the General Secretary. .r 0 account of the proceedings of the onth African Council having been received by the Head Office during the continuance of the recent war:Owing to the outbreak of the war, which has now been lJrought so happily to a close, the epidemic of plague, anu other matters which have occupied the public mind fOI' the la t three years, it was cleemeLI inarll'isable to hold the usual annual meeting of the A sociation until the present year. ince the last annual report and up to the commencement of hOlitilitie in this eouutry, the work of the Association had been steadily incrca'ing and actiye sections \Yere establish cd at Mafeking, 'Worcester, Burghersdorp, George, and "tellenhosch, while in the other sections at Kimberlcy, Umtata, aUll East LonuolJ, ancl the outh African Republic Centre, the illtere t and progress were being well sustained . 'Whcn war became immlllent the interest all ol'er the country, and especially in Cal)e Town, in ambulance matters greatly increased, and in order to meet the numerous demands for instruction the Council decideJ to organise special classes in first aid, which were opened free to the public. Four of these classes were starteu in n, fortnight ancl at all of them the applications fol' adl1lission exceeded the maximnm llumber allo,Yed for each cIa snamely, 30. Other classes ,,-ere formed as opportuuity offered, anu in nearly all the sections throughout the country similar enthusiasm ,,'as manifested. As are uIt the number of certificates issued siuce the last annual meeting has grpatly cxceeued all previous records; 52 Impils were examined in fir t aill nnd 448 proved themselves qualified to render first aid to the injnrell; 59 ,ycre examined in the Nursing Course and 52 passed, making a total of 587 examined and 500 passed. In this connection the Council most cordially tenuer their gratcful tl1anks to the Honorary ~Iedical Staff for their in valuable assistance in lectming to, and examining, the nnmerous classes. In addition to forming these speeial classes, the Council called for volunteers among duly certificated members of thcl Association and received a generous response, many ladies and gentlemen offering their services gratuitously. A detachment was selected and offered to the military authorities, who gladly accepted tbeir services, anu after a little supplementary instruction in hospital "ork the detachment was placed on o. 2 Hospital Train, under Captain Flemming, :r..A.~I.C., and proceeded at once to the front . One member of this detachment is still serving on the train, a1:11 Captain Flemming has freq1lently expressed his pleasure at the highly satisfactory and efficient manner in which the men performed their arduous duties. As might 1e ex pected there were many offers of service from our lady mem ber', and though none were called upon for actual nursing, yet the ,york voluntarily undertaken by several at ,Yynberg Station, in meeting all trains arriving with sick and iyounded, and bUP1,lying nourishment and light refreshments to the men, will he long remembered with gratitude by those who henefited thereby, and the Council wish to take this opportunity of recording their sincere appreciation of a work so cheerfully undertaken ailel carried on with such llevotion. Active service detachments were also organisecl at Kimberley and BllI'ghersclorp and did excellent work. About a month prior to the ontbreak of hostil ities a telegram was received from the Soutb African RepulJlic Centre asking for large f'upplies of ambulance matcrial. The demands being greatly ill excess of our stock, a large quantity was cablerl fo r

239 from LOlHl on, and in three weeks time was landed at Cape Town .

and drills, including the average attendance, also shows an improvemcnt. The total number of cases treated whilst on public duty is greater, though there is a falling off in the number of cases reported as having been treated when not on duty, the reason for this being to a great extent a laxity on the part of the members in failing to send in the necessary reports. The local public duties performed during the year include the usual attendancc on Saturdays at the Recreation Grounds, Manor Club, and Church Institnte Football Grounds, the \Yimbledoll Horticultural ociety's ExhiuitiOll and ports, Manol' Farm Garden Fete and ports, chool Children's Fete at SonLJdiclds, Oarni\'al in aid of Hospital Funds at Battersea, Ohurch Parade in aid of th.e L. & . W.H.. Oo.'s Orphallage, the local Corollation Festivities, and the Rillg's Dumer to the puor at various centles ill Battersea. Under district orders, the Division also attended for duty ut t. Paul's Oathedral, the Ooronation, the return of the Duke of York, the Openiug o[ Parliamcnt, Earl's Oourt Exhibition, and at Battcrsea Park 011 Ballk Holidays. The members lie ire to place on reeorcl their indebtedness to the subscl'il.Jer~ and patrons [or their continued interest and SUppOlt ; to the Pl'esiden t of tbe Finallce Oommittee for the u'e of the hand ome and COnlmocliotls hea.<l-fluarter , which have proved of such inestimable value to the Divi iOll; and to the HOlt. urgeon for his contiJlu~ll energy amI zeal in furtherance of the efliciency of the Di\'isiol1.

An increasingly marked interest has been ~ho"'n 1~ the efficIency ~nd III the doings of t he Division during the past year by the dlrector~ and offiCIals of the Company, which has had most encouraging results. .A cOI~ces?10n has .beel~ made to t he men of a drill once a fortnight in the Company s tlme, wInch IS greatly appreeiated, and the Comllany has gen~rously not deducted time lost when call - fo r public duty have been marle, even maklllg arra~gements for the men t.o be absent. T he directors continue to present silver medalholls to tho e who qualIfy.fol' them . .An extract from a letter received from a medical man who was called 111 on the occasion of an accidel1t at the ,Yorks, \\'hich unhappily proyed fatal, read as follows: " I should like to take the opportunity to express my admiration of the way the am bulance men did tbeir work, both before I got there and aftenyardR, c:onsiderinO' the anxious state tbey must have ueen in about theil mate. I never saw a finer e;hibition of artificial respiration anywhere. They did all anyone could do to save him and in the best way, and I must say it reflects great credit on the men and their teacher." I n the Bow'ne?nouth Daily Echo, of 5th Sept., 1902, under a heading " Narrow E scape" an account is oiven how C. H . Byron, of this Divisioll, after using artifici~l respiration to °a man apparently drowned, for 25 minutes, succeeded in restorinO' animation, followed eyeutually by complete recovery. Much us~ful work is undertaken amongst the employes of the Gas , Yorks, as will be seen by the number of cases treated "hen not on public duty, [tnd upwards of twenty of these were fradures. 'The Division had the honour of holding both the " Ma sey Maimvaring" CUll and the "Osborn" Shielll for the 11ast. year. SP.orts are still held in the liecreation Grounds attached to the ' Yorks, at " 'lnch gathenngs the Division takes duty, and genera-lly with useful results. The small average ~f men at the weekly drill is explained by the fact that as the work of the Company 113 of a continuous nature, a full muster at one time is im]Jossible. Duty bas been undertaken in response to the several calls from Head-quarters during tlle year.

REPORT OF THE DEPUTY OOl\Hn'sroNER. 2, lIIu EU)£ TUEET, 11'SWIf'H, 20th Octobe1', 1902.

Su,

I have the honour to submit the following as my Annual Report for No. III. District for the year emling 30th eptember, 1902. Brigade work has beell carried on throughout the District with increased act! I'ity and interest, anu I am pleaseu to record that the various Oorps anll Divisions are not only numerically stronger, but have attained a higher state of efficiency than in any previous year. everal new Kursing and Ambulance Diyisions ha\'e been formed, and some of the older Oorps huye been reconstructed, particulars of which will be fonnd under their respective reports . Since the last Annual Report the Birmingham City Division, ,,-hich was formed in 1899, for the purpose of sending men ont to the war, bas ceasell to exist. This Division was the means of enabling forty picked men to go out to South Africa and serve as ambulance orderlies in the Hoyal Army Medical Oorps, the Imperial Yeomanry and other Hospitals. The men who volunLeered included b\cnty-fiYe police constab1es, and were of exceptional physique j they did excellent wOlk, and only one died on service. In place of the City Division the Birmingham Oorp. has been reformed on the lines of the General H.egulations of the Brigade. I have pleasure in reporting that seven complete Divisions ha\'"e been formeu, and others are in conrse of formation, and I wish to acknowledge the great help I have recei\'eu from the OLief Superintendent and the Superintendcnt , ecretary of the Oorps in the heavy work which the l'econstruction entailed. The past year has been au eventful one in this District, a11(l many interesting functions have taken place, amongst the principal being the uistl'il)ution of war medals to the mem bel'S of the Brigade who had served in ~ outh Africa. Early in the year about 250 medals were receiveu, and in an the chief ceutres they were presentecl with due form and ceremony . At Northampton the presentation was made in the Guildhall by Earl Spencer, K.G., the Lord Lieutenant or the Oounty. At Wellingborough the Marquis of Northampton presided over a large banquet given in the neighbourhood, dming which he decorated tlle men; and similar functions of a highly successful character "'ere perfol'med at Leicester, Dudley, Ipswich, Haverhill, Kettering, HandslVorth, and Iron bridge. A great honour was conferrecl on the Brigade in the District on the 30th August, when, on the invitation of the Right Hon. Joseph Ohamberlain, :M.P., the memlJers of the Birmingham Oity Division, who had served in South Africa, attended at Highbury, to receive their war medals from the hands of Mrs. Ohamberlain . The ceremony took place in their beautiful gronnds, when the Oolonial Secretary addressed the men . The speech became of imperial importance, being the only one made by Mr. Chamberlain during the parliamentary recess. The men and their friends were afterwards hospitably entertained at tea in the conservatories.

All Divisiolls arc working "ell. The c[H;h account shows a laruer deficit than ,yas the case last year. This i" accounted for l'y reason of rli,isional reql1irelDents necessitating a larger expenditure than their respecti'Ye receipts. Against a tlebt of £119 16s. 6r1 . there is a fairly good asset hy way of stock ,,-hicl! is valuell, after full (lqwecintion allowances have been madt', at '£515 15s. 2d. On ~Iay 10th, 190~, medals \yere pre~ented in the Leeds'l'o\YIl Hall by tbe Lady :\1ayores (~lr. Butler) to men ot' the Leeds Corps \\'ho l~nd returned from sen-icc in 'outh Africa. The men of the Corps \vho seneel dUl'lllg the South African ,Yal' were also recipiellts of a framed Resolution of the Lee,h; City Council; presented IJy the Lord :Jlayor (A. E.

About 16:1 of the men trarelleLl to Harrogate to he il1speded, and they "'ere entertailled bv nIl', Fox to tea on the la,YI1. After the inspedion ~It'. Fox was prc~ellted ),=ith an en large<l l'hotogral)h of a glonp taken at the pre,iolls illsllection in ArmleT Cricket Field . In this way the members hoped to show some slight appreciation of the generous gift hy Ml'. Fox of 25 complete brigade uniforms to Leell' Corps, the cost of which was £52 16s. 3Ll. The ambulance station at the York, hire Agricnltural Show held at Rounelhay 011 July 30th. 31st, and Aug . 1st, was in charge of the Leeels Corps; each day there lJeing on duty fom surgeons, four lInl'sing sisters, eight officers and men a\Jd one bngler. Each night n squad of menremainerl on duty , The nursing sisters wcrp detailed from DewsllUry amI Batley. The statioll lIas well equipped, t11ere being three heds in the \romen's ward and three bells in the lllen's \'Urd. In all twenty-fhe cases " 'ere treated. There was an abundant snpply of mediral Llrcssings, and a gas stove and a lavatory were specially bnilt and crer-ted free of cbarge IJY Messrs. 'Wilson, -:'tlathieson & Co., Scotch Foundry, Armley. The sholl' authorities pai(l all ont-of-pockct expellses, and wrre well pleaseLI with the arrallgements. The different. diyisioDS have done most llseful work in their myn eli tl'irts in attending Hospital Ca1'llivals, Football Matches, Sports, Shmy , etc., and their services han been al'lll·eciated. Finallce Committecs have heen organised in Divisions, which will no doubt show good results terore the next report is Inade.

MEMORANDUM ON THE

Organization of Units in the British Dominions beyond the Seas. BRIGADE HEAD QUARTERS:

ST.

JOHN'S GATE, LONDO~,

E.O.

18th NoventbeJ', 1901.

THE following instructions and suggestions have been drawn up for the guidance of those who may undertake the formation of units of the St. John Ambulance Brigan.e outside the British Isles :1. Before all things it must be borne in mind that the St. J.A. Brigade is established under the auspices of the Order of St. John, and must therefore conform generally to the General Regulations of the Brigade approved by the Grand Prior and Chapter.

2. Having regard to the distance from Brigade Head Quarters of many places in which units of the Brigade might be formed, and considering the diversity of local conditions, there must be allowed as much freedom of action as possible to the local Brigade authorities, provided that t.here be such conformity to the fundamental rules of the Brigade, especially as to the maintenance of efficiency of mem bers, as will make it just to the Order of St. John to allow the use of the title "St. John Ambulance Brigade." 3. While the St.J.A. Brigade works hand in hand with the St.J.A. Association as an equally important branch of the Ambulance Department of the Order, the distinction between the two must be carefully observed and maintained. (a) The Association provides instruction, and grants certificates of proficiency in first aid, &c., to the individual, but does not undertake the organization of its certificate holders for the benefit of the public,

•

and, having no hold on the individual after. a certificate has been gained, does not guarantee the main~enance of ~fficlenc1; on the other band, t~e main object of the Brigade IS to oq~amze certil?Cate h.olders and tram them to render first aid to tbe publIc on publIc occaSIOns and membership of the Brigade implies continued efficiency. (b) The same person may, of course, be an office-~older in the Association and an officer or other member of the Bngade, but no person can as an official of the Association exercise any control over any unit or member of the Brigade as such. (c) Although grants. may be made b'y a Local Centre of the ~s~o.cia tion towards the establIshment and mamtenance of a Corps or DlvlslOn, the Brigade units must as far as possible be self-supporti~g (which. of itself greatly illcreases the interest of the members In thelr re~pective units), or at any rate they ought not to be control~ed by CommIttees of the Association. The existence of a dual control m the case of some of the earliest-formed Corps in England (contrul by the Br.igade ~uthori ties and control by the Local Centres) has not work~d satisfacto~Ily, and it is earnestly reeommended that no such expenment be t~Ied. In England new Corps and Divisions are now absolutely self-contamed and indep endent of control by the Local Centre~ .. ~Vhen Local Ce.ntres contribute any financial support to Corps or DIVIsIOns of th~ Bngade, the officers in charge will of course account for the expendIture of such contributions. 4. The essential conditions of membership of Corps and Divisions of the Brigade are the following ; -

(a) Good character and sui ta ble physique. (b) The possession of a first aid certificate (not a junior certificate) of the St.J.A. Association. (€) The maintenance of efficiency, as defined in Brigade General Regulations, 1902, para. 35. This condition entails ; (1) Attending in each official year at least 12 drills (or practices in the case of Nursing Divisions) at each of which there must be some

practice of first aid ; (2) Passing an annual re-examination in first aid (and also in nursing in the case of Nursing Divisions, and of men who hold nursing certificates) conducted by a medical officer of the Brigade, apart from any examination passed under the rules of the St.J.A. Association; (3) Attending an annual inspection (chiefly as to discipline, general appearance, stretcher drill, and elementary infantry drill) by a duly appointed officer of the Brigade; (4) Turning out for public duty to the satisfaction of the officer in charge of the Corps or Division. 5. The fundamental rules of the Brigade are as follows ; (a) No ranks, appointments, or titles, to be allowed but those authorized in the General Regulations. (b) Superior Officers, viz., Commissioners, Medical Officers in Chief, Deputy Oommissioners, and Assistant Commissioners to be duly recommended to the Chief Commissioner with the view of their names being

submitted for approval of the Chapter General of the Order and appointment by H.R.H. the Grand Prior, as in England. (c) District Staff Officers and Officers of Corps and Divisions to be duly and formal.1y. appointed on behal~ of the Cbief Commissioner by the loc~l Comm~ssIOner or other superlOr officer who may be authorized to appomt; SerJeants, Corporals, Honorary Secretaries, Insp ectors of Stores .an.d Honorary Treasurers (if any) can be appointed by Deputy Com mISSIOners.

(d) A uniform to be adovted and approved by the Order of St. John through the Chief Commissioner, anJ no other uniform allowed as ~ Brigade uniform. No badges to be worn but those authorized in Brigade General Regulations, or by special permission of the Order. (e) "\Varrants, notifying appointment, will be issued (on application only) by command of the Grand Prior to all officers who are duly certified as having been appointed by or on behalf of the Chief Commissioner, and as wearing the authori7.ed uniform. (f) Rules in conformity with the spirit, and as far as possible with t~e .l~tter, of the. ener~l Regulations must be adopted by each Corps or DIVISIOn at the tIme of Its enrolment, and sanctioned by the local Commissioner or Deputy Commissioner. (g) ome form of Register heet must be arloptecl <18 a convenient means of assuring the local Commissioner or Deputy 10mmis 'ioner of the actual strength of proposed unit, as a proof that each vroposed member agrees to abide by the rul s and regulations and as a record ' of original members.

(h) I 'ome form of Brigade R ecord. 'h et shoul(l be adopted to insure a complete record of efficiency of all member. year by year and as a basis of claim to Service Badge, to any other rewards tl;at may be allowed, and to continuance of membE'r hip. (}) • orne form of Hecord of Drills and Duties must be aclopted, and the use of it insisted upon in all 'orp' and Divisions. (k) An Annual Report mLlst be made to the 'hief Commissioner by the fir t mail after 30th . ept mber, so as to be included in his Annual Report. This Report shoulcl be made in the form to be seen in any published Annual Report of the Chief Commissioner, say of the year 1 99-1900, as there will be but little time for alterations on recei~t of the form. in England, and it is rno t desirable that the reports of umts of the BrIgade beyond seas should appear side by side with those of Corps and Divisions in the home country. This is the only return that must of necessity be submitted to Brigade Head Quarters at home. (l) The established nomenclature of unit of the Brigade should be o~s~ryed, bodies consisting of le5s than about 70 members being called I?IVll:IOnS, and only bodies of more than that strength being allowed the tItle of Corps. Divisions and Corps should be grouped in Districts (under Deputy Commissioners) and if there must of necessity for purposes of administration be more than one District in a Dominion or Colony. the supreme control of the combined Districts may well be veste.r1 III a Commissioner. It is however recommended that the higher appoIlltmen~s should be limited to such as are really necessary) and in small Colomes the highest title might well be Chief Superintendent (of a Corps).

(m) It is strongly recommended that 110 body of men or women of less than 12 persons should be enrolled as a Division, although, if really

necessary, they may form a Section of an existing Di vision. It is found by experience that, when the first enthusiasm has subsided, many members drop out, there are not sufficient on drill-nights to man a stretcher, and the organization soon collapses. (n) Elementary infantry drill should be taught and practised, as it inculcates habits of discipline, and ensures orderly movement when acting in crowds, &c.; and, with a view of the possible voluntary employment of the men in time of war as auxiliaries to the military medical establishments, the stretcher drill should be in complete accordance with that contained in the Manual for the Royal Army Medical Oorps. A new edition of the authorized Drill Manual of the Brigade is in hand and its publication will be duly announced. 6. Many important alterations have been made in an issue of the General Regulations of the Brigade (1902), which is now in the press. A copy of these Regulations will be sent to all known Oorps and Divisions of the Brigade, and to the Secretaries of Local Oentres in the British Dominions beyond the Seas, as soon as they are published. Examples of the Forms used in the Brigade in England (which could be reproduced locally as required) can be sent, and any advice or information given from Head Quarters that may be desired by persons who may be good enough to undertake the formation of units of the Brigade. It is earnestly requested that the General Regulations be carefully read before any local rules are adopted. They have not been compiled arbitrarily, but are the outcome of fifteen or sixteen years' experience of the practical working of the Brigade unde?' the conditions prevailing at home. As intimated above, local peculiarities and requirements may necessitate modifications in details of minor importance. As the Ohief Oommissioner is appointed by the Grand Prior of the Order to direct the Brigade, and to be responsible for its organization, administration and discipline, it is requested that copies of all orders and rules that may be iss~ed or sanctioned for t~e guidance of units of the Brigade, wherever sItuate, may be sent to hIm as soon as practicable after issue.

for great bravery and courage displayed at Brom.sgrove (l\Iidland Railway) on the 3rd June, 190J, A 1iss Deykin, while in the charge of Nurse Lindsay and while walking near the railway made a sudden rush [or an approaching train, in front of which she threw herself. Nurse Lindsay quickly followed her but was just too late to prevent Miss Deykin from being killed and she herself was knocked down by t.he engine, narrowly escaping ,vith her life, and receiving severe injuries which necessitated herremoval to hospital on a wheeled litter. At the subsequent inquest on Miss Deykin the Coroner's J ury warmly commended the highly courageous and determined manner in which N urse Lindsay endeavoured to preserve the li fe of her pati ent.

CHARLES T. ROWE, R. N., (1st Class Petty Officer and Torpedo Instructor of H.M.S. " Latona,") BRONZE MEDAL AWARDED

forconspicuous bravery displayed atthe shipyard of l\lessrs. Vickers Sons and Maxim at Barrow-in-Furness, on the 12th February, 190 3. An electric battery on board ~ o. 6 submarine, which was being charged with gasoline, exploded, injuring six men.

A second explosion of less violence occurred after the man Underwood had been rescued. The danger was unknown and submarine work being a new branch in ship construction it is difficult to gauge the risks, but that they are considerable is shown by the explosions on the English, French and American submarines, the causes for which are not as yet at all clear.

for great bravery displayed at Booth's Cement \Vorks, Borstal, near Rochester, on the 27th l'\ovember, 1902 . A man named Hermitage, overcome by poisonous fumes, had fallen into a lime kiln at which he was working, when another workman named Bigg went to his help. An alarm being raised, George Pett and Henry Hill entered the kiln to get the two men out. Pett endeavoured to pull Hermitage up a ladder but only just succeeded in reaching the surface, he himself being overcome by the fumes. John Tong and Ernest Godden then descended and made a rope fast to Hermitage and Hill. but they also, overcome by the fumes, had to make for fresh air. Edwin Harmer then descended the kiln and succeeded in making a rope fast round Bigg. Each of the four rescuers reached the surface in a state of collapse and their efforts to reach the deceased men, Hill, Hermitage, and Bigg, were most highly commended by the Coroner at a subsequent inquest.

HonOTCt1'y Sec?'etal'Y. St. John's Gate, Clerlcenwell, London, E.G. 80th J'Lily, 1903.

Ist October, I9 0J.

1. At the request of the Secretary of State for War, the Order of St. John of Jerusalem bas undertaken to enclea, our to form a Reserve of Stretcher Bearers who would bo available for senice abroad in case of the country being involved in war. 2. In time of peace, and in case of small military operations, the combined duties of stretcher beau'l's and hospital onlerli s (male nurses) would as hitherto be pelformed by men (If the Royal Almy 1Iedical Corps, but in the event of hostilities on a la} ere scale the great bulk of the highly trained orderlies of the R.A.M. COlpS woultl be employ d ill the general and stationary hospitals, while the proposed Stretcher Bealer Reserve mell would be exclusively utilised at the front, thp.ir 'wolk being to give immediate first aiel to the wounded and to com ey them to the dressing stations 01' hospitals.

3. To this end therefore it is neccs 3Iy that the Stret.cher Bearel s should be qualified to attend to the iml ediate wants of the injured, sufficiently trained in the use of the fielu stletcher, accustomed to discipline, anu above all men of reliable character, of good physique and of active habits. 4. It is celtaiu that in all these Iespects no more suitable body of men could be found tban those employes of the Hail way Companies of the United Kingdom who have obtaillell the first aid certificate of the St. John 01' St. Amlrew's Ambulance Associatiou, aud it is thel'cfol'e proposed to endeavour to fOlm the reserve, if possible, from those sources exclusively. 5. In order to be prepal'ed to meet any probable emergency, the t,otal number

of reservists required to be maintained would be about 2000, and taking into consideration that the number of certificated ambulance mell connected with the Railway Centres of the St. John Ambulance Association in England alone ~i.~., exclusive of the Scotch and hish railways) is considerably over 12,000, It IS confidelltly hoped that each com}Jany will be able to see its way to allow a pro~ortional number of its qualified ernploj es to volunteer for this national serVIce, while still bearing in view the proper interests of the shareholders.

C. & S.-10.03.

6. Details of local ol'aanization would most advantageously be arranged after a consultation of the representatives of the several Railway Centres which it is proposed should be held at St. J oh~'s Gate. ~s soon as .l)r~cticable. The followin a is a sketch of the most essential condItIOns of serVIce 111 the proposed o reserve. (a) Volunteers to be certificate holders of the St. John or St. Andrew's Ambulance Association, between the ages of 20 and 35 years from 5 ft. 4 in. to 6 ft. in height, certified by a registered medical practitioner as being of sound constitution, certified .by their employers as being of thoroughly good character, and certIfied by some responsible and qualified person (as may hereafter be arranged) as being acquainted with the Royal Army Medical Corps stretcher drill and elementary squad drill. It is of course understood that no man could be enrolled who is already liable to service as a member of any military or naval force, active or reserve. (b) On enrolment in the Reserve, each man would be required to sign a declaration that it is his bona fide intention to enlist as a stretcher bearer in the Royal Army Medical Corps whenever the Stretcher Bearer Reserve or any part of it is duly mobilized for active service and he is called upon to serve. He will also undertake to give immediate notice should he at any time wish to withdraw from the Reserve [or find himself unable from any cause to hold himself in readiness to serve at short notice. (c) In time of peace, after such testing of his competence in drill as may be determined, the only duty required of a reservist would be the keeping up of his knowledge of first aid and stretcher drill, and attendance at an annual inspection by a medical officer of the Army. This inspection could be held at central points on the systems of the several Railway Companies so as to obviate the necessity of men being taken away from their ordinary duties for more than a few hours; but as a unit of the Reserve will consist of 90 men, divided into Sections of 18, it would facilitate the inspection arrangements if a complete unit or several sections could conveniently be assembled at the same time and place. (d) For attendance at the annual inspection, every enrolled man will be paid a certain small sum, provided he is found efficient by the inspecting officer. After the first inspection has been held, reservists must have been enrolled at least 6 months in order to be eligible for this payment. (e) The only ranks allowed in the Stretcher Bearer Reserve will be those of Private and Corporal, 1 Oorporal being allowed for every 17 Privates. (f) A special arm badge indicating that the wearer is a member of the Stretcher Bearer Reserve of the Royal Army Medical Corps will be issued to each enrolled man, and with the permission of the Rail way authorities may be worn on his railway clothing. (g) On the Reserve being mobilized for service, the men called out will be required to enlist in the Royal Army Medical Corps for a period of 12 mont.hs, or for the duration of the war. In the event of the war being over in less than 1 year they will have the option of completing their 12 months' service or taking their discharge. (h) On enlistment in the R.A.M. Corps, on mobilization, every man will be completely clothed and placed on exactly the same footing as

regards pay, rations, compensation for injuries pension widows' and children's allowances, as other soldiers of the C~rps. ' Corporals of Sections will be enlisted as Corporals of the Royal Army :Medical Corps. 7. In case of the country being involved in wftr of such a nature as to necessitate the employment of the Stretcher Bearer Reserve, certain lines of railway, especially those leading to ports of embarkation for troops and stores, would no doubt feel the pressure of increased traffic more than others' but whether even t1~ose p~rti~ular lines w~uld on the whole, apart from mili tary traffic, be as actIve as In tIme of peace IS perhaps open to question; and in any case, if judgment were exercised as to the localities from which the volunteers were drawn, and as to the men who are permitted to volunteer, it is hoped that it would be possible to provide for tho sudden withdrawal of the quota of men required without cftusing serious inconvenience. 8. At any rate these. are questions which must of necessity be considered and decided by the railway authorities, and it is thought that a consultation of the nature alluded to above would provide an opportunity for an interchange of views on the whole question ani coulll not fail to facilitate an early decision as to the extent to which the patriotic help of the rail way companies can be relied upon. 9. It is allowable to tate that. everal Companies have already expressed in general terms a rea~in~ss t~ ?onsi~ler t,he propos~l seriou ly and sympathetically, and as to the patrlO~Ic SpIrIt ammatlllg the railway men generally, it is only necessary to call to mmd the enthusiasm shown and the splcndicl work done by many of them during the late war.

HE walls of the present Church of ST. JOHN, with its fine Cl ypt beneath, are all that now remain of the once famous PRIORY CHURCH of the HOSPITALLERS, or the KNIGHTS OF ST. JOHN OF J ERUSALEM, whose chief horne in Ellgland was here at Clerkenwell. ~ The Order was founded at Jerusalem in the IIth century, fur the pur;:>ose of ministering to the needs of the many sick and weary pilgrims who had undertaken the meritorious act, as they supposed it to be, of visiting the Holy Sepulchre. Later on, when the Crusaders entered upon their struggle with the Mahometans to endeavour to wrest J erusalem from their grasp, the Hospltallers, carried away by the enthusiasm of the age, joined the soldiers of the Cross in their conflict with the Turks, and from that time they became a Military af well as a Charitable and Religious Order, pledged to d efend the Holy Sepulchre to the last drop of their blood, and to make war upon their Mahometan foes whenever they met with them. In carrying out this determination their many acts of valour became so renowned that it was considered a most meritorious deed to join the ranks of the Order, ev en in the meanest capaci ty, which was thus recruited from the noblest and wealthiest families in Christendom, as well as from those in a lower social position of life. 'Ve must not imagine, however, that the hitherto peaceful IIospitaller became entirely absorbed in the soldier. On the contrary, the long-continued struggle between the ChI istians and the TUlks gave the H ospitallers many more opportunities to carry out the principles of their motto-Pro UtzHlatc HOllli71uJIl. We know that the sick and wounded of both frientls and foes were tenderly nursed, and that the many acts of kindness shown to their enemies earned for them the gratitude of

(

)

the renowned SALADIN, who, when he retook Jerusalem in 1 187, and drove out the Christians, permitted the Knights of St. John to retain possession of their Hospital for one year to attend to the sick and wounded, as a mark of his esteem for the valuable services rendered to the Turks as well as to the Christians. From Jerusalem the Knights removed to Acre, out Df which they were driven by their old enemies in 129 r. They soon afterwards settled in . Cyprus, but remained less than twenty years, as having taken possession of Rhodes in 13 10, they removed to that island and quitted Cyprus. Here tlley remained for 200 years, when they again had to retire before their foes, and, after wandering homeless for seven year~, Malta was ceded to them in 1530. Even here they were not free from the attacks of the Turks, who followed them up by sea and unsuccessfully attempted to take the island. ' The brave resistance of the Knights to this attack will Ever remain the principal feature of one of the most memorable sieges in history. From this date, 1565, the KNIGHTS OF ST. JOHN were permitted to remain in peace for more than 230 years, but as a military power they gradually declined. Towards the close of the eighteenth century, Napoleon, in the height of his glory, set out for Egypt, and on his way took possession of the island of Malta, and dispersed the Knights-most of them retiring to their own countries, where they had to perpetuate independently the existence of the Order, under very different circumstances from the position it formerly held as a Sovereign, Military, Religious, and Knightly Order, recognised as such by all Christian countries of Europe.

• (

)

N English Branch of the Knights Hospital1ers was founded in CLCRKENWELL about the year r roo, when ten acres of land was given them by JORDEN DE DRISET and MURIEL, his wife; and soon afterwards they bc~alj to erect a noble pile of buildings, including a beautiful Church, which when finished was consecrated by HERACLlUS, titular Patriarch of Jerusalem, upon March 4, rr85, and who the same year consecrated also the Church of the Ternplars near the Thamef:, still known as the Temple Church. At Clerkenwell they began their Priory Church by erectin~ .a small Cl1apel of three bays in the Norman style of architecture; but no doubt with the intention, as time 'w ent on, tu build a large Church worthy of the Order to ,,\ hich they belonged, and of which the Chapel should form an undercroft to the Choir. This Cllapel still remains in a \\lOndel fully good state of preservation; and it is the oldest lmildil1g in London, with the exception of the 'White Tower of the Tower of London, which dates from r080, and the remains of Edward the Confessor's \vork at \Vestminster. About I I 60 the Knights started to enlarge their Chapel, (which by this time had no doubt become too small for them) by removing the (probably) semi-circular termination at the East end, and adding two more ba) s to the len gth . They also built another Chapel on the South, and two Chambers on the North side, and over all was erected the Choir of th eir fam ous Priory Church. This additional work in the Crypt is Transitional in character, dating from about I 170, and is well preserved. The Crypt as we see it now consists of a Nave of five bays with Transepts at the extreme east end, ",hich on the south side forms a portion of the South Chapel. The N orman portion is the three westernmost bays, and. here small round-headed windows occur on both sides of each bay, and a stone bench against the walls surrounds the whole of this earlier work. Upon the arches and the ribs can be seen traces of coloured decoration, which is formed by a thin layer of plaster upon the surface of the stone being cut out in chevron and scalloped shapes, the exposed surface of the stone then being coloured red. At the west end may be seen one jitmb of the original doorway, and outside in the lobby portions of both jambs remain in position. The two eastern bays of the Nave of the Crypt, together with the Transepts and South Chapel have deeply moulded pointed

(

)

arches, springing from triple clustered shafts. Against one of these piers may be seen an ancient glazed floor tile, still in its original position-almost all that now remains of the floor laid down by the Knights. The tile-covered platform at the east end replaces in size and height the original Altar Dais, slight indications of which were found when the Crypt was cleared in 18 94. The South Chapel was originally lighted by three small lancet windows on the south and by a larger one at the east. On the western wall the broken basin and drain of a piscina can be seen running through the thickness of the wall, and by the 's ide of the east window is a stone corbel, which e\'idently supported a figure or a light. The bases of the piers in the South Chapel are worthy of study, as some are placed square with the wall anJ others at an angle, and one of them has a trefoil-leaved foot-ornament carved upon it. The two Chambers on t~e north side are simpler in construction, as there are no piers, and the roof is a plain barrel vault without ribs. They are entered by a door from the Nor th Tramept, and a modern opening, which replaces a small lancet window, connects the two Chambers. The 'Western Chamber has in its walls two aumbrys, rebated for doors, but there are no indications, such as iron rings or staples, that any have been fitted. At the west end is a small door leading into the Nave of the Crypt, evidently replacing the original window in that position.i this door was probably the entrance to the Crypt after the rectangular Nave of the Church was built. In the two North Chambers is a small Museum of collected fragments of masonry and other objects of interest. In the glass cases may be seen small portions of carved stone, rich in detail, and still retaining colour and gilrling-slight indi cations of the grandeur of the original Church. Here are abo a number of medi~val tiles, a number of pewter alms·di~h:::s dated 1816, a'1d an interesting baptismal bowl made of lignum vitre wood, lined with sheet iron, and with a silver gilt rim, upon which is inscribed "St. John, Cierkenwell. Deo et Sacris. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved." A large number of the fragments of stonework consists of trip1e clustered shafts, and rib mouldings of the same section as the Transitional portion of the Crypt, several fine Norman caps and corbels, and early English grotesques. An interesting .object is a fine 12th century capital of white marble, which, from its material and character, is clearly of southern European workmansh ip , so that it is possibly a portion of a ready-work ed

)

donation from the chief home of the Order to the Church which was then building in Clerkenwell. This collection of worked stones of the old Priory is frequently being added to, for as the present houses within the precincts are rapidly being replaced by modern factories and warehouses, almost every old wall that is pulled down yields additional fragments which had been built into its foundations after the destruction of the Priory buildings. Upon the north wall of the South Chapel is fixed a Bra~s Tablet in memory of Richard \Voolfe, F.S.A., a Knight I)f Justice of the Order who died in T 877.i and it is hoped that these walls will be used for other memorial tablets for deceased members of the Order of St. John. The principal dimensions of the Crypt are as follows, the total length of the Nave is 62 feet 2 inches, and its widi.h 16 feet 3 inches j the extreme length of the Transepts is 5 I feet 2 inches, and the width I I feet 4 inches.i the height from the Floor to the centre of the Arches is 12 feet. An interesting feature of the Crypt is the large number of "masons' marks." These are the personal marks of the indIvidual masons. These marks occur on the face of many of the stones, slightly scratched in with a pointed tool: they show us that there were about eighteen masons employed upon the N orman portion. The same marks are also found upon the recently discovered remains of the Round N aYe. The marks vary in size from about 3 inches to 6 or 7 inches long. An illustration of the masons' marks upon the Norman portion is given. In the Transitional portion of the Crypt there are also a large number of masons' marks, but these have not yet been so carefully noted.

HE original Nave of the. Ch~rch w~s round, like t~1e _ Templars' Church: whIch mterestmg. fact was dlscovered in 1900, during the constructlOn of a lobby and stone steps to enter the Crypt. Two large sfgments of the foundations of the Circular Nave were then unearthed, and are now open to inspection. They were found in an excellent state of preservation, most of the stones being cleanly and sharply cut, and show plainly the marks of the workmen's tools which fashioned them more than 7 00 years ago, and, what is more interesting, many of th~se stones bear the masom' marks of the builders. These remall1S show that the Circular Nave was 64 feet in diameter; its fl )o r was 4 or 5 feet below the floor of the Choir and 8 feet above that of the Crypt. The attached plan, by Mr. E. \V. Hudson, A.R.I.B.A., fully explains the relation of the Round Church, wiLh the still existing Crypt and the Choir above. This round Nave stood for nearly 200 years, when it was probably destroyed, during the insurrectlOn of \Vat T) ler, tcgether with most of the Priory building<:. Jack Stra:v (so called) headed the insurgents from Essex, who, havll1g a grudge against the Knights of St. John, came to Cl~rkenwell and attacked the Priory, of which they took possesslOn, and then destroyed all that they could of the buildings by settin g them on fire, and leaving behind complete desolation. It is said that the Priory at that time contained a vast CClllection of specimens of Art and many rare and valuable books, the loss of which, in a less tUl bulent age, would have been a matter of national lamentation. Af~er the insurrection, the Knights returned to their old home, now a scene of almost complete desolaticn; for nothing remained but the ruins of the magnificent buildings which the mob had destroyed. It was not till about 120 years aftuwards that a complete restoration was effected. The Nave of the Church had to be rebuilt, but the original circular shape was unfortunately not retained, a rectangular Nave being substitu ted for the former round one. No plan of this portion of the building now exists, and it is impossible to state its size and shape. However, beneath the surface in St. John's Square, to the west of the present Church, immense masses of solid masonry are discovered when excavations are being made for drainage and other purposes. These were douLtless the concrete [oUlldations of the second nave of the Priory Church. Quite recer.tly what was probably the western termination has been found beneath

the present paving, running north and south from the end of J eru salem Passage, and about 9 0 feet from the rai!ings. now in front of the Church. CAMDEN says of St. J uhn s Pnory: "This house increased to the size of a palace, had a beautiful tower, carried up to such a height as to be a singular ornament of the City." It was not until the end of the 15th Century, when Sir THO:'lIAS DOCWRA was Prior, th at the buildings were again finished; destined however to remam but fur a short time, as HENRY VIII., at the Reformation, determined to suppress all Monastic Orders in the country and confi:;cate th eir property. He began his sacrilege upon the smaller, and then continued his destruction by attacking the larger. Still one remainedand one only-St. J ohn's Pliory at Clerkenwell, and it was not until he had obtained a special Act cf Parliament in 1540 that he ventured to deal with so large and powerful a body as the K 'IGH1 S Of ST. JOHN. And now the end carne -the Priory W1S dissolved-and the King appropriated for his own purposes the builJings, which STOWE says he used " as a storehouse for his toils and tents, for hunting, and for the wars." In the following reign, when EDWARD VI. was too young to take into his own hands the government of the country, Lord Protector SOMERSET pulled down the greater part of the }'riory buildings for the sake of the materials of which they were constructed. STOWE says, II In the third ) ear of King Edward VI., the Church, for the most part, to wit, the body and side aisles, \v ith the great bell tower (a most curiolls piece of worklnanshippe, graven, guilt, and inamelled, to the great beautifying of the citie, and pa~sing all others that I have seen) was undermined ancl blowne up with gunpowder; the stone thereof was imployed in building the Lord Protector's hOl1se in the StranJ," 'When Queen MARY came to the Throne the Priory was reconstituted, Sir THOMAS TRESHAr-I being appointed Prior. The walls of the Choir alld the Crypt beneath had fortunat ely escaped when, on the occasion already mentioned, the remainder of the Church was destroyed. At the suggestion of Cardinal POLE the Choir was repaired, and a wall was built across the £Iont. For a s;lOrt time only it was again the Priory Church of the Order, though much reuuced in size and shorn of its former magnificence, as Qileen ELIZABETH, soon after her accession, confisca tsd the buildings and what

(

)

rer.lai::ed of the property of the Order, although she did not withrlraw the Charter which had been granted by her sister. Without a home, and with no means of subsistence, the K nights were once more compelled to leave ClerkenweII, and their property passed into secular hands. Little is known of the uses to wl,ich the Priory buildings were put until the middle of the seventeenth century, when \ye find that the Church was used as a private Chapel by the :Marquess of Ayle~bury, who lived in a house adjoining the north side of the Church, which had been probably the resioence of the Grand Priors of the Order. Part of the Church he turned into a li 1)rary, and a part of the Crypt was utilised as a wine celllr. Subsequently, for a few years, we find that the Presbyterians had pos!3ession of AYLESBURY CHAPEL, as it was then called, and the end of their occupation of the building was singular. Dr. GILBERT BURNET, the well-known Bishop of Salisbury, resided at that time in St. J olm's Square, and in his "History of My Own Times," writing of the Sacheverell riots, says: "There happened to be a meeting-house near me~ out of which they drew everything that was in it and burned it before the door of the house." The next we hear of the Church was in 172 f, when SIMON MICHELL, who had lately erected Red Lion Street, close by, purchased the buildir-g, and restored it. He fitted it up with 'ery high pews, and constructed galleries round three sides, intending it for a place of \\'orship for the City merchants, who now began to leave their places of business to reside in what was then a pleasant suburb of the City. \Vhen the restoration \ras completed he offered it to the Commissioners, appointed under an Act of Queen Anne, for building fifty new churches in and about London, by whom it was purchased. An area formed of the precincts of the old Priory was allotted to it as a parish, and the Choir of the olel PI iory Church of the Knights, with considerable internal alterations, thus became, a nd still remains, the ~ ARISH CHURCH of the Parish of ST. JOHN AT CLERKENWELL. The Church continued, with little alteration, in this conditi·)11 until 1889, when the Rev. ,\rILLIAM DAWSON, who was then Rector, completely restored it internally-the ' architect being Mr. JOHN OLDRID SCOTT. , The chief alterations and improvements then effected were the replacing of the old unsightly high pews with the present handsome benches and choir stalls of polished mahogany and

(

)

walnut; the restoration of the East windows, inserted by Prior Docwra about 1500, and which had become much dilapidated, the North and South windows especially having lost their stone mullions, which had been replaced by ugly wooden frames; the removal of the galleries on the north and south sides in the two eastern bays, and the handsome decoration of the walls and ceiling. Simon Michell, when he sold the Church, arranged that the Crypt should be used for mortuary purposes, and in it were placed, between 1738 and 1853, a va~t number of coffins. These were heaped on the top of each otller from the floor to the roof, and when intra-mural burials were

In course of a few years this collection of unburied dead boelies became exceedingly offensive, and was no doubt injurious to the health, not only of those who worshipped in the Church, but to others also who lived near such a heap of corruption. Many complaints were made, upon which the newly appointed Rector (the Rev. T. 'V. WOOD) and the Churchwardens (Messrs. ARTHUR l\IILLW_\RD and H. W.

( (

)

) to hear the extraordinary sounds, and listen to their supposed

FIKCHAM) took the necessary sters to have the bodies removed. Without difficulty they obtained an Order in Council, and also a Faculty for clearing them out, out it was only after a considerable amount of opposition-raised by persons who never attended the Church, nor resided near it-that the work was successfully accomplished in the spring of 1894, when the remains were reverently re-interred in consecrated ground at Brookwood Cemetery, 'Yoking. In accordance with the Order of the Consistory Court a vell~m memorial, prepared by 1\1r. James 11illward, has been placed in the V cstry of the Church, recording the removals. It reads as follows : ST. JOHN'S

One of the bodies removed was that of Fanny Kempr popularly known as "Scratching Fanny," and from whose alleged extraordinary doings, whilst the body was in the Crypt, arose the fame of the Cock Lane Ghost. The funeral took place in 1762 from Cock Lane, Smithfield, and soon after, it was said, unearthly manifestations began to exhibit themselves by way of knockings and scratchings-a girl of twelve being a kind of medium. A rapping communication was pretended to be carried on with the unseen world, which the child's father professed to interpret. So great was the fame of this imposture that Royalty, the nobility, members of the House of Commons, and a vast number of City merchants assembled night after night

in terpreta tion. At length the Lord Mayor took the matter in hand, and determined to sift the claims of those who affirmed that the noises were supernatural. After some negotiation it was de~ cided that the child, who acted as the medium, should be taken to St. John's Rectory, in Red Lion Street, then, and now, the official residence of the Rector. The child was undressed, examined, and put to bed by a lady, upon whom dependence could be placed, and during the night she was closely watched by a pal ty of Clergymen, doctors, magistrates, and ladies. At midnight a visit was paid to the coffin in the Crypt by three gentlemen, who went from the house to which the girl had been taken, The Rector ,Mr. Aldrich) and the celebrated Dr. J ohoson, said to have been a firm believer in ghosts, were two of the party, The spirit han promised beforehand to manifest itself that night in the Cl ypt by knocking upon the comu; but though solemnly required to perform its promise not a sound was heard, neither was there any manifestation in the ' room where the girl bad been placed in bed. The inves tigation lasted tIll between two and three o'clock in the morn ing, when the whole of those assemb!ed gaye their opinion "that the child bas some art of making or counterfeiting particular noises, and that there is no agency of any higber cause." The child afterwards confessed (hat she had been taught to produce these noises by scratching and rapping on some article or instrument concealed beneath her clothes. Her father, with two or three of his confederates, was tried and convicted of conspiracy. The puni~hment inflicted was a heavy fine, and the principal mover in the fraud v-vas also sentenced to be placed three limes in the pIllory at the end of Cock Lane and then to be imprisoned for two years. Five years after the removal of the human remains, a Committee was formed to raise funds to lestore, or rather repair, the Ancient Crypt, and subscriptions were solicited to enable them to carry out this desirable and important wOlk. When about £800 had been collected, it was decided to complete a section of the proposed restoration. A new entrance was constructed, and a flight of stone steps was made down to it from the forecourt at the 'Vest

(

end of the Church. It was when this was being done that the two segments of the ancient Circular Nave of the Priory Church already mentioned were discovered, which are nolV permanently exposed to view. The Nave of the Crypt was next dealt with-a new floor of encaustic tiles being laid, and a few necessary repairs undertaken. The original stone work and plastering were left untouched, but many thick coats of what had once been whitewash were removed, chiefly by a scrubbing brush, from the arches and other portions of the masonry. By this process of cleaning a good deal of the original colouring was exposed, though much faded by the lapse of time since it was placed 011 the walls. An entrance at the East end, constructed in the 18th century, through which the bodies were brought for "burial," was closed, and the unsightly aperture hidden by a massive oak screen. The electric light was installed, and twelve dozen chairs were placed on the floor. The Nave is now used for occasional services, lectures, meetings, classes, &c., and has proved of great benefit to the parish, which owned no room hitherto available for such purposes. On May 21, 190I, the restored portion of this ancient structure was re-opened, when a Thanksgiving Service was held in the Church, at which the Archdeacon of London, one of the Chaplains of the Order of St. John, delivered an address. The congregation then descended into the Crypt, where Earl Egerton of Tatton, as Chancellor of the Order, formally declared the building to be opened. He spoke of its great antiquity, its interesting associations, and expressed an earnest wish that it might be found most useful for the many parochial purposes to which it would be applied. On the 1 nh of June 1902, H.R.H. the PRINCE OF WALES, Grand Prior of the Order of St. John, visited this most interesting building, as many of hiS distinguished pred~cesso~s m~st have done in the olden time. He expressed hiS gratIficatIOn at the progress which had been made in the restorat.ion, ~nd like his father, now King EDWARD, hoped that thIS ancient structure would soon be completely restored. We are unable to locate the position of the Cloisters but that they existed we know from the records, which state' that Grand Prior William de Henley built the Cloi~ters in the years 128 3-4, .so that they would be Early Decorated in character. The ClOIster garth was the usual burial place, but Grand Priors

)

and other importar, t officers may have been buried in the Church. There is only a small portion of the floor of the Choir which was available for burials, as the Crypt below covers almost entirely the same area, except in the south aisle, where the two Western bays of the Church stand upon solid earth ?wing to the South Chapel of the Crypt being only three bay~ In length. There may have been many burials in the Nave but thi~ has long sin~e disappeared. A short time ago a~ excav~t~on was ma~~ 10 the south aisle for the purpose of exarmmng the condItIOn of the wall of the Church. During the work an adult skeleton was found, in good condition, From its position it was except that the skull was missing. undoubtedly a medire\'al burial in the south aisle of the Choir. Now we read in the records that the Grand Prior, Sir olm Langstrother (who also held many other important offices m the Order) was made prisoner and beheaded after the battle of Tew~esb~ry, by order of Edward IV., A.D. 1471, and he was buned III the Church of St. John at Clerkenwell. Can it be that th~se were the bones of Grand Prior Langstrother, and that Ktng Edward had used his head for the purpose of decorating Old London Bridge, or some similar structure, which was usually adorned in this manner during the Middle Ages!

@bjects of snterest tn atl() abont tbe present <!bnrcb. The finely-carved canopy over the west door is Michell's work of 17 23, to which was added in 1888 a carved panel, by the well-known Church Sculptor, Harry Hems of Exeter, repres (~nting the three Johns with whom the Church .IS associated. In the centre is St. J olm the Almoner, or St. John of He lived early in the seventh J erusalem, distributing alms... century and ruled over a Church in whose coffers lay enormous wealth. This he employed in relieving the multitude of Christian fugitives driven from Syria by the devastating flood of the Mahometan invasion. Hence his honourable title of John the Almoner. He was the Patron Saint of the Hospitallers until they joined t!1e Crusaders in the struggle against the infldels, when they placed themselves undC!r the protection of the Baptist. On the right of the central figure is St. John the Baptist preaching in the 'Wilderness. The figure on the left represents St. John the Evangelist, on whose festival day (Dec. 27) in 1723, the Church was reconsecrated by Dr. Edmund Gibson, then Bishop of London. The brick front to the present Church was placed there in 1723 by Simon Michell, who unfortunately covered over the stone work of the Grand Prior, Sir Thomas Tresham, with the intention, no doubt, of making the front of the Church correspond in appearance with the houses in Red Lion Street close by, which he had built a year or two before as residences for city merchants. In excavating within the forecourt of the Church in 19 00 to construct a flight of steps into the Crypt, which were originally intended to be placed on the south side of the door, remains of the foundation of the west wall of the south Choir aisle were discovered, which can now ,be seen in the opening on the south side within the railing. As the Nave was circular it was necessary to construct a west wall to the Choir, except where the Nave and Choir met. It is a part of this wall which is now exposed to view after being buried for centuries. The ancient walls of the Choir of the Priory Church are now, on the south side, permanently exposed to view. They are built of rubble stone, and are about 4~ feet thick.

(

)

Opposite the pillars which supported the roof of the Choir the stones are squared, and it is at these points the wall can now be seen. An ancient doorway exists in the south wall which probably led into a side chapel. Under one of the two large windows in this wall has recently been placed a large and bandsome memorial to the memory of the St. John Ambulance Brigade men who died on active service whilst engaged in tending the sick and wounded during the war in South Africa. Altogether no less than 2,046 Ambulance Volunteers were sent out at different times, of whom 66 never returned. On the eve of the departure of many of the detachments, a special service was held in St. John's Church, attended altogether by about 1,500 111m-varying from 23 to nearly ten times that number. The memorial states tbat it was erected by his Majesty King EDWARD VIl., Sovereign Head and Pa.tron, uy his Royal HighlJess the Prince of Wales, K.G., Grand Prior, and by the Chapter-General of the Grand Priory of the Order of St. ] ohn of Jerusalem in England. On IIth Jur.e 1902, an imposing ceremony took place on the unveiling of the Memorial oy H.R.H. the PRINCE OF ·WALES, in the presence of a laree number of the Members of the Order, and the relatives of the men whose names are inscribed upon it. In the East "Window is a small stained glass Shield of Arms which is blazoned, gules, a chevron or, between three combs, for BQTYLL, on a chief argent a cross gules, for the Order of St. John. An inscription in Gothic letters surrounds the Shield, and reads: "Robertus Eotyll, Pryor, Elect. A.D. 1439, Resign. 1469." This is the sole survivor of probably a series of coats of arms which may haye been placed in the windows of tbe Chapter House, or some other irupO! tant part of the Priory. Over the Altar is an exquisite copy of Raphael's picture of the Holy Family which is in the Hermitage Gallery at St. Petersburgh. The original, known as the "Alba Madonna," is an early wcrk of the great master's Roman period, and was acquired in London for the gallery in St. Petersburg, in 1836. This copy was placed in the Church at its restoration in 1888. Raphael lived between 1483 and 1520. The reredos surrounding this painting is Michell's work of 1723, Besides the walls already mentioned, the Church contains many traces of ancient work, the principal being the bases of the columns which can still be seen between the seats, and

(

)

upon which the columns supporting the galleries were erected r in 1723, by Simon Michell. Beneath the iron grating within the altar rails is a fine specimen of the ancient work, consisting of the base of one of the columns at the East end of the Choir. On entering the Church at our right hand on the south wall is a plain tablet which bears the following remarkable inscription : "In memory of SARAH 'VYBROW, who departed this life at the great age of one hundred and one years and eight months, having outlived all her children, but leaving behind her grand~ children, great grandchildren, and great-great grandchildren. She was born April 18th 1782, and died December 17 th 188 3." One of the most interesting objects belongipg to the Church is the Silver head of the Beadle's Staff, or the Verge, which is believed to be almost, if- not quite, the oldest in London. It bears upon it the figure of St. John the Baptist preaching in the ·Wilderness. This was added to the original ornament in 1829; the Verge itself bears the date of 1685. An inscription upon it records that "This staff and silver head was made At ye charge of ye inhabitants of ye east liberty of St. John of J erusalem. l i The following portraits are in the Vestry: EngravingsRev. RICHARD HARRISON, Rector from J788 to 1793; Rev. Dr. HUGHES, Rector from 1841 to 1870; Sir EDMUND LECHMERE, Bart., Patron from 1871 to 1894. Photographs-Rev. VV. DAWSON, Rector from 1870 to 1892; Rev. T. '\'. 'VOOD, the present Rector. Oil PainNngs-SIMON MICHELL and his vVife. It was Mr. Michell who restored the Church early in the 18th Century, and fitted it up in the Georgian style, with very high pews, galleries, &c. The old iron chest in the Vestry is worth noticing. Rather more than a hundred years ago it was stolen from the Vestry with all the Church plate. A reward was offered for its recovery, ann at length the chest was discovered; but it was empty, and the plate has never been found. It contains now nothing more valuable than old papers.

st. 3-oJ)n'S (l';nte. ON the south side of St. John's Square stands the grand old gate-house of the Priory known as ST. JOHN'S GATE. This building was erected by Prior DOCWRA in 1504, replacing an earlier gate upon the same site. It is constructed of brickwork faced with Kentish rag-stone, and consists of a large arched gateway with a hall above it, flanked on either side by towers four stories in height. The building is Late Gotbic or Tudor in style, and 1S surmounted by an embattled parapet. Tbis formed the chief entrance to the Priory; and immediately opposite to it, on tbe north side of St. J obn's Square, spanning what is now Jerusalem Passage, stood tbe north postern, a small arcbed entrance, wbich was rem9ved in 17 80 . What stirring scenes this old Gate and its predecessor must have witnessed. Here bave assembled the English Knights when leaving for the East. Here have come Kings and Nobles of England to visit the Grand Prior. ·Here came the great Cardinal WOLSEY to arrange with Prior Docwra for his lease of Hampton Court and its 1,000 acres of land; and through this old gate have marched the two thousand and more of the men of the ST. JOHN A?llBULANCE BRIGADE on their way to give succour and aid to the sick and wounded at the recent war in South Ah:ica. At the suppression of the Knights, the Gate followed the same vicissitudes as the rest of the Priory; until in 173 1 EDWARD CAVE came here, and for many years he edited, printed, and published the Gentleman's Magazine. Here Dr. SAMUEL JOHNSON had a private room in which, without being disturbed, he could write articles for Cave's mag3Zine. In 1813 the Gate became the Parish Watch House, and later still a Tavern. During this period it was tbe birthplace and home of various literary and convivial societies-amongst others, the Urban Cluh, and the Club of the Odd Volumes. In 1870 tbe late Sir Edmund Lecbmere obtained possession of the premises by purchase, and soon afterwards the old Gate again became the Home of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem in England, and has continued so ever since. On the south side of the Gate, above the central arch, are a series of shields, which form a memorial to the late Duke of

This memorial was unveiled by his father, H.R.H. the Prince of Wale~, Grand Prior, on June 24, 1893, in the presence of members of the Royal Family, and a large assembly of Knights, Chaplains, and Ladies of the Order. On the north side are three shields which are contemporary with the building; they bear the anTIS of the Order and of Grand Prior Docwra. To visit the Gate 'we enter by a door on the north side of the east tower and pass into a room on the ground floor, which is now the library of the Ord er. H ere is a fine collection of books and prints relating to the hi story of the Order and its various rosse~siol1S, especially of Rhodes and Malta. Ha!1 ging on the wall is a bre as t-plate wh ich was worn by a Kni ght at the second si ege of Rhoces in 1522. The next interestin g room is on the second Aoor, and is called the Chancery. Here are preserver! many pictures and oLjects of interest, the prin cipal of which is the R oll of 'lembers. Headed by H.M. the la te Queen VICTORIA this Roll con~ tains the autographs of the Princes and Princesses, many of our Nobles and well-known English men and women who have h t: en appointed members of the revived O RD ER OF ST.

balls, which were fired by the Turks at the sieges of Rhodes. and Malta. The Staircase of the vVestern Tower is contemporary with the building, it is spiral and each step consists of a solid oak block, the outer end of which is built into the wall and the inner end is dowelled into a central newel post. The room on the ground floor of the 'Vestern Tower is the Store of the Ambulance Departmfnt, and from here are sent out to all parts of the Empire every kind of Ambulance material from a roller bandage to a stretcher, or a four-wheeled horse litter. The earliest known jJlustration of the Priory is that by Wenceslaus Hollar in Dugdale's Monasticon, Gate'i 166r, long after the dissolution. This engraving consists of three pictures, the lower one giving a view of the east side of the Priory, with the east end of the Church almost as it appears at the present time, and a long range of the secular buildings extending along S:. John Street as far north as Aylesbury Street. The right hand top picture gives a view of the west front of the Church, showing the wall built by Grand Prior Tresham, and a building on the north side which in Hollar'stime was the residence of the Earl of AylesbUly. The site of this house was afterwards occupied by a distillery belonging to Israel 'Wilkes, and here was born in 1727 the famous John Wilkes, Lord Mayor of London and M.P. for Middlesex. The remaining view shows the north side of St. John's Gate, with a curious wooden structure filling up the Arch, In the upper part of which is a room. This was removed In I n ! by the S1. John's Commissioners of Paving. In Hone's Every Day Book for Nov. 13, is a woodcut entitled "The Church of St. J oho, Clerkenwell, 15 08 ," which was copied in 'Valter Thornbury's "Old and New London," with the t itle "The Original Priory Church of St. John, Clerkenwell "; but careful investigation has proved that these pictures have no relation to our Priory Church, but are copied from a print of St. John's Abbey, Colchester, which originally appeared in Morant's History of Essex. Several other supposititious illustrations have appeared in various maps and pictures of London: such as that in Newton's"London in the Olden Time," 18.15; and a beautiful drawing ,by Mr. H. W. Brewer in Tile Builde?' of Jan. I, 18 9 8 . But Hollar's print appears to be the only existing representation of the Priory that has any claim to authenticity.

Tllis was effected by means nof . . of brushe~, f tool being used v. hich would be likely to .m]ure the ace 0 the stones, many of which bear the remams of colour, the marks of the workmen's tools, the dog-tooth, and other ornamentations, and the masons' marks already mentioned. Where necessary the graining has been ma~e firm, and hert and there the plastering has had to be repaIred. . 2nd.-A large and unsightly opening, wh1ch was made through the wall from the Nave into the South Chapel, e~rly in the eighteenth century, has been filled. up, and t~e stnng . d across l't to correspond . wIth that which. runsf course carne . round the whole of the building. Th1S IS the only piece 0 new masonry inserted within the Crypt. .. 3 rd . -The floor has been paved. "'.ith encaustIc tIles .at the me level as it was originally. ThIS 1S shown by the eXlstence a few of the old tiles still remaining situ . . . 4th.-The completed portion is now hghted by electnclty, and warm ed by a gas stove.

)

5 th . -A massive oak screen has ueen erected at the east end, it not being found practical to rep:J.ce the original East window. 6th.-The greatest improvement effected has been the construction of a spacious entrance at the west end, under the door of the Church. It was here that the early Norman Chapel was entered, which was erected about A.D. ] roo, when the Knights first settled in Clerkenwell. This was subsequently closed by a massive stone wall, through which the new entrance has now been made. To accomplish this a considerable amount of excavation had to be undertaken, in order to construct the necessary flight of stone steps do\yn to the Crypt. It was "hilst engaged in this portion of the work that the two existing segn~ents of the original round Nave were discovered, now exposed to view, on the north and south sides of the entrance, and also some other remains of the ancient Church were brought to ligh t. At the bottom of the steps a lobby of ample proportions has ueen constructed, in which a stone taLlet records the clate (19 00 ) when this improvement was completed. The whole of the work has been carried out under the professional supervi~ion of 11r. J. Old rid Scott and Mr. C. Baker King, to "hom the Restoration Committee are greatly indebted for many valuable suggestions. As the K a ve is used for parochial gatherings, meetings, lecturt.s, classes, &c., tbe County Council requirements have been complied with, and it is the unanimous opllllon of those who have visited the Crypt that the restoration, so far as it is completed, IS a great success. ,Ve have still to carry out the followin g works:1st.-Repairing, cleaning, and paving the side Chapel, and in addition, in th is section, the opening out of the three lancet windows in the South 'Vall, and the restoration of the large East ·Window. When this is completed a flood of daylight will once more be admitted into this anClent and interesting building. \Ve shall be enabled to effect this by an arrangement lately made with the London County Council, \"ho will, on the removal of the dilapidateJ buildings now coverina this site t:> , convey to the Church a strip of E,round on the South and East sides of the Chapel, in return for a portion of the Churchyard required for the widening of St. J olm Street. This will be an immense improvement to the Church-an acquisition we hardly considered practicable when we undertook the restoration of the Crypt.

When the necessary repairs and the cleaning have been completed, we trust that the Chapel will be fitted up and used for d ivine \yorship. Then, perhaps, after the lapse of centuries, it may become once more the Chapel of the members of the revived Order of the Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem, whose predecessors erected it more than senn hundred years ago, and who probably used it down to the time of the dissolution for the celebration of the Holy Sacrament. 2nd,-The Chambers on the North of the Nave also require considerable treatment, especially those parts now formed of rough brickwork, which was substituled for the ancient stonework early in the eighteenth cenlury. No definite plans have yet been made for dealing with these Chambers, but if the
