The Chamber of Trade and Publicity Society, following of their introduction of a Mis s Bar- nard Castle (in 1948 Mis s End Webb, in 1949 Miss Esme Dawson) to take part ill their Festival Week programmes, and the ea r'ous functions throughout the year, have again made the appointment of a Mis-; Barnard Ctrs - e. This tar their choice ha s fallen upon-Mss Rachel Mary Wilson, of 1, Victoria Road. Miss Wilson, a Barnard Castle girl, is well-known throughout the town and district. The younger daughter of Mr and Mrs H. W. Wilson, and a granddaughter of the late Mr Robert - Wlsoa, who was in business as huider and contractor in the town... Miss .Wilson has been a. member of the G.P.O. telephone exctmne,:e staff for the last e'ght yea's. and is a popular member of' the Amateur and Dramatic Society, and will be remembered for her excel- lent performances in the dramatic productions of " Rookery Nook " and "Fools Rush In" is wh'oh she took leading parts. The Teesdale Mercury re•crds with regret the passing of Mrs Elizabeth Borrowdale, of New - gate, Barnard Castle, whreh occurred on Saturday. "A Mother in Israel." If anyone &served t•n' I !t,' o "A Mother in Israel," wrtes a, correspondent, it was airs Borrow- date. for throughout a lengthy life of -universal usefulness she thud endeared -herself to more than two generations of r Ile marl Castle people. Formerly Miss Elizabeth (Cissie) Wightman sister of Mr J. T. Wig.htinan, also long resident iu Barnard Castle, and •Mr A. Wightman a more recent. arrival, site was married many years gao to the late Tom Bororwdale, who for many years continued the business of Borrowdale and Son, joiners and undertakers. in Newgate, which his father had been all hi s ' life identified. Mr Tont Borrowdale died about' thirteen years ago, ail(' his father predeceased dins some years earlier. It was my prvilege and pleasure soon after my coming to Barnard Castle to interview the older gente'nsan, who recalled many ancient customs in the days of this youth and early manhood. From the time of her coming to Barnard Castle Mrs Borrowdale was noted for her kindly activity for the good of other people. SIse threw herself most -wholeheartelty into -many movements for to. alleviationof the poor. It must be nearly forty years ago that she was elected a member of the old Tees- dale Board of Guardians. In those days there were -four women members of the Board, the other three. being the late Miss Nixon, Miss Mary . A. Smith, and Mrs Ingram Dawson. All four proved themselves Aisdul members: of the. Board, as they wer able to go into cases with a thorughness for which the men members were not fitted. It -may be said that these lades vied wilt each other in their endeavours to improve the lot of more pleased than they' at the the poor of Teesdale, and none were prospect of change in the admin- istration, of the Poor Law which culminated in 1930 in the abolition of Boards of Guardians established as long ago as 1835 and the tutroduction, of a new phase of public assistance. In many other ways Mrs Borrow- dale silently- and cheerfully dis- charged her "duty ler.•ards her neighbour" in the . highest and widest sense of the word.. She was among the foremost workers for the Parish Church of her adoption, in which her thusbaud 'had beea a lifelong member of the choir and occasionally organist. No one Took a deeper interest in the floral decoration of the church on festival occasions, and in whatever move- ment was on foot for -raising funds for Church purposes she was sure to be found. She will be remembered with gratitude by members of the Barnard Castle Amateur Operate and Dramatic Society, of which her brother, Mr J. T. Wightman, was for many years -conductor and musical director. Who could forget the ample supplies of refreshments the always had ready for the amateur performers when they flocked from the Victoria Hall to her house in Newgate between the acts to participate in the results of her unspairing generosity Over the young people of the town Mrs Borrowdale exercised a remarkable benficent influence. For many years she arranged annually a concert at which the programme was entirely filled by young people whom she was able to gather together. In the Victoria Hall.one SHIRTS Popular Prices !

CHAMBER OF TRADE

FESTIVITIES,

The Scroll of Friendsh:p.

Seine of the Guiles from Middle-ton and Romaldkirk went by oar to Yarns last Sunday afternoon to sign- the scroll of friendship and to witness the handing over cere-mony from County Durham and

Notalt<Riding. The two counties formed separate

horseehoe formations whilst the County Commissioner spoke about the scroll which hat come from Liechtenstein and will continue its journey down to Oxford where it will 'be 'handed over at the 13th World Conference to the Liechten-stens= representative with our

messages of goodwill.

The Chamber of Trade and Publicity Society, following of their introduction of a Mis s Bar-nard Castle (in 1948 Miss End Webb, in 1949 Miss Esme Dawson) to take part ill their Festival Week programmes, and the ea r'ous functions throughout the year, have again made the appointment of a Mis-; Barnard Ctrs - e. This tar their choice ha s fallen upon-Mss Rachel Mary Wilson, of 1, Victoria Road.

Miss Wilson, a Barnard Castle girl, is well-known throughout the town and district. The younger daughter of Mr and Mrs H. W. Wilson, and a granddaughter of the late Mr Robert - Wlsoa, who was in business as huider and contractor in the town...

Miss .Wilson has been a. member of the G.P.O. telephone exctmne,:e staff for the last e'ght yea's. and is a popular member of' the Amateur and Dramatic Society, and will be remembered for her excel-lent performances in the dramatic productions of " Rookery Nook " and "Fools Rush In" is wh'oh she took leading parts.

The Teesdale Mercury re•crds with regret the passing of Mrs Elizabeth Borrowdale, of New-gate, Barnard Castle, whreh occurred on Saturday.

"A Mother in Israel." If anyone &served t•n' I !t,' o

"A Mother in Israel," wrtes a, correspondent, it was airs Borrow-date. for throughout a lengthy life of -universal usefulness she thud

endeared -herself to more than two generations of r Ile marl Castle people. Formerly Miss Elizabeth (Cissie) Wightman sister of Mr J. T. Wig.htinan, also long resident iu Barnard Castle, and •Mr A. Wightman a more recent. arrival, site was married many years gao to the late Tom Bororwdale, who for many years continued the business of Borrowdale and Son, joiners and undertakers. in Newgate, which his father had been all hi s' life identified. Mr Tont Borrowdale died about' thirteen years ago, ail(' his father predeceased dins some years earlier. It was my prvilege and pleasure soon after my coming to Barnard Castle to interview the older gente'nsan, who recalled many ancient customs in the days of this youth and early manhood.

From the time of her coming to Barnard Castle Mrs Borrowdale was noted for her kindly activity for the good of other people. SIse threw herself most -wholeheartelty into -many movements for to. alleviationof the poor. It must be nearly forty years ago that she was elected a member of the old Tees-dale Board of Guardians. In those days there were -four women members of the Board, the other three. being the late Miss Nixon, Miss Mary . A. Smith, and Mrs Ingram Dawson. All four proved themselves Aisdul members: of the. Board, as they wer able to go into cases with a thorughness for which the men members were not fitted. It -may be said that these lades vied wilt each other in their endeavours to improve the lot of more pleased than they' at the the poor of Teesdale, and none were prospect of change in the admin-istration, of the Poor Law which culminated in 1930 in the abolition of Boards of Guardians established

as long ago as 1835 and the tutroduction, of a new phase of public assistance.

In many other ways Mrs Borrow-dale silently- and cheerfully dis-charged her "duty ler.•ards her neighbour" in the . highest and widest sense of the word.. She was among the foremost workers for the Parish Church of her adoption, in which her thusbaud 'had beea a lifelong member of the choir and occasionally organist. No one Took a deeper interest in the floral decoration of the church on festival occasions, and in whatever move-ment was on foot for -raising funds for Church purposes she was sure to be found. She will be remembered with gratitude by members of the Barnard Castle Amateur Operate and Dramatic Society, of which her brother, Mr J. T. Wightman, was for many years -conductor and musical director. Who could forget the ample supplies of refreshments the always had ready for the amateur performers when they flocked from the Victoria Hall to her house in Newgate between the acts to participate in the results of her unspairing generosity

Over the young people of the town Mrs Borrowdale exercised a remarkable benficent influence. For many years she arranged annually a concert at which the programme was entirely filled by young people whom she was able to gather together. In the Victoria Hall.one
