It had recently been brought to my attention that The Quill lacked volume and issue numbers. Baroness Deirdre Mogan came to the rescue and thought up the perfect solution: While we have no idea how long The Quill has been in publication, we do know that our dear Master Gavin was invested as Founding Baron in January 1980 (A.S. 14). Conveniently, our Baronial year starts in January as a result. So, in Baron Gavin's honor, we will start numbering this year's run of The Quill as Volume 31, starting this month, and go from there.
This number reflects the age of Nottinghill Coill as well as Baron Gavin's investiture and thus is significant to our history as a Barony.
This picture was taken in 1982, at the old Paris Mountain site. The lady in the picture is Alison Evergreen, one of the ladies in my party. It was our second event, and Alison wanted to have her picture with the dashing Baron Gavin to show around to the girls back home. I never forgot how kind and gallant he was to us all, nor will I ever.
I wish you all peace and luck and love in the New Year!
Dulcy,
Chronicler
