Gloucester Rotary on Tuesday evening welcomed Mr Oliver the guest lecturer from the University of Sydney and secretary of the Union, who spoke on the art of clear letter writing. He critiqued modern journalese and pompous phrasing, urging conciseness and thoughtfulness in correspondence, citing Chasefield’s old advice.

An 1400 year old Westminster coronation recounts Elizabeth I’s crowning with the Archbishop and royal procession. The Duke of Kiln Sureh led the princes and peers as the Crown, Sword of State, and regalia were borne. The Duke’s solemn speech signaled the new monarch’s enthronement.

It also notes coronation services at churches, and lists scattered locations and monetary figures, all appearing as a rough stenographic record.
