• Notes

  Mary Jane sent me a lovely little book (just a loan for a week), covered in tartan plaid, "The Clans and Tartans of Scotland" by Robert Bain, Foreword by His Grace THE DUKE OF MONTROSE. Published by Collins, London & Glasgow, Aug 1938. This book has a history of Highland Scotland plus a picture of every Clan tartan and each clan history. ?-- Celeste Lammon Barrus "Mary Jane Gould is fondly called the "Pope of St. Matthias" by parishioners. From the day she joined St. Matthias in the early 1950s, Mary Jane was "front and center," not only in the pew in which she and her husband Jake chose to sit every Sunday but in her total immersion in St. Matthias' activities. She actively served in the Altar Guild, in the New Church Building Committee, and in the Woman's Guild. She organized those who spent hours creating the needlepoint altar-rail kneeling pads and actually did one herself. She was the instigator and the backbone of the Smorgasbord, the annual luncheon just before Lent which offers the community a "taste" of the cuisine produced by the great cooks of St. Matthias. Above all else, she exemplifies the meaning of Christian love and spirit and inspires all who know her. This book is a small recognition for all she has been to us and the community to which she has contributed so much." From an article about Mary Jane, sent to me by her son Robert. -- Elmer Burns Lammon
