We are much saddened to hear of the death, after a long illness, of Joyce Hines in New York on November 26 1987. She was a student of George MacDonald’s works for a very long time, and was a founder of the Society.

1. Many of you may have been wondering what has been happening to us! We are alive and well and, after a period of re-evaluation over these past months, are now ready to stride on into 1988 and beyond. Some people say that no news is good news. In our case no news has simply been no news. Suddenly, however, a lot is beginning to happen and we promise that we will be more regular with our newsletters from now on.

1. Already the damp autumn weather has arrived and thoughts are turning towards Christmas. A little Mediterranean respite was granted to Freda Levson, Jean Schurer and Bill Raeper, however, when they travelled to Bordighera in Italy from the 13th to the 20th September at the invitation of the Anglo-Ligurian Club to join in their annual celebrations commemorating the death of George MacDonald on September 18th. The club itself flourishes under the energetic presidency of Miriam Masterton and seeks to unite Italians and English speakers adopting the principles that MacDonald himself used at Casa Coraggio. Certainly the warmth and generosity of …

1. The first thing to report is that the Drinks Party held on 4th July at the Heinz Gallery, Portman Square was a great success. There was a sizeable number of people there and the talk given by Dr. Neil Jackson was both interesting and informative. Freda Levson tried to explain the close ties between the Troups and the MacDonalds, but some of us got lost in the genealogy. It is easiest to think of F.W. Troup whom the exhibition at the Heinz Gallery was honouring, as a king of “nephew” of MacDonalds. Troup was a distinguished architect in his …

The most important of news to impart to the Society is that there will be a drinks party on Thursday 4th July at the Heinz Gallery, Portman Square to which all members are invited – and you can bring a guest. This evening is part of the celebrations of the F.W. Troup Exhibition which will be taking place in the gallery at that time. F.W.Troup, a relative of MacDonald’s, was a distinguished architect, Huntly born and bred, who became a distinguished architect. He died sometime in the 1940s.

1. It is with deep regret that we announce the death in Edmonton, Canada, of Richard (Dick) MacDonald, at the age of 83. Dick was the youngest child of Benard, tenth child and fifth son of George MacDonald, and his wife Belinda Bird. He was educated at St Edward’s School, Oxford, and at St Paul’s School, London, and he served with the Imperial Army from 1917 to 1919. With his wife, Inez Thomson, he emigrated to Canada in 1920 and joined the Soldiers’ Settlement Board in Edmonton with which he remained for nine years.
