4) 9th August 1965 17 Claremont Street, Failsworth, Manchester - Dear Mrs.
Coulter, At long last here are the photographs I promised to send you. I'm
sorry for the delay but after we came back I kept forgetting to leave the
negatives in to be developed. I hope you had a good holiday and that during
the second week you and Mrs. Smith were able to get out a bit more. We
certainly enjoyed our week in Portrush and it just went in too quickly for
us. I have been back over home again since our holiday for a few days as my
father has been and still is very ill. He originally went in to hospital for
an operation but because his heart isn't too good at the moment and also he
has got bronchitis the Dr. won't operate so we are praying that he will soon
take a turn for the better. When I phoned my brother last night I got quite
a surprise cause my other brother Jim had just arrived from Canada. He has
flown over for the week to see my father. Fiona and Jim are keeping well at
the moment and of course Fiona is always up to some trick or other. We went
for a nice bus ride yesterday afternoon to a place called Grains Bar and
from there we walked about 5 or 6 miles through the Yorkshire Moors. Don't
forget if you should see Miss Quail to give her my best wishes - my maiden
name was Edna Boyles. I'll close now, hoping this finds you well and thank
you once again for the lovely little vase which you gave me, I have it
sitting on our fireplace. Some of these days I will try and get round to
sending copies of these photos to the other people we met in Portrush. I
remain, Yours sincerely, Edna Campbell

1a) Obituary - Mr. John
Coulter - Loss to Sea Angling, Red Cross - The Sea Angling fraternity
throughout Ireland, local Red Cross circles and the community generally have
been shocked by the death of Mr. John Edward Coulter, 14 Shandon Drive,
Bangor. Mr. Coulter, who was in Dublin last week-end on sea angling
business, passed away on Tuesday after becoming suddenly ill at his home.
His unbounded energy and enthusiasm belied the fact that he had celebrated
his sixtieth birthday at Christmas. As chairman of the Ulster Provincial
Council of the Irish Federation of Sea Anglers he did much to promote the
sport and ensure that those taking part in competitions enjoyed themselves.
He was a jovial character at many a weigh-in, and at the subsequent social
proceedings. He belonged to both the Bangor and Groomsport Sea Angling
Clubs. An inspector with the Ministry of Agriculture, Mr. Coulter
worked for a time in Omagh, where he was a Scout master. It was in Omagh
that he met his wife Ethel, and in due course they settled in his native
Bangor. An efficient and keen member of the British Red Cross Society, Mr.
Coulter found time to participate in many public duties. The Masonic Order
was another of his interests; he was a founder member of the recently formed
William Sefton Memorial Lodge 842. Above all, Mr. Coulter was a great family
man. Sympathy is tendered to the bereaved family circle - is wife, who is a
director in Ann Roulston Ltd.; two daughters, Mrs. Janet Jess,
Crawfordsburn, and 13 year old Christine, a pupil at Glenlola Collegiate
School; his mother, Mrs. Jessie Coulter, who was a noted singer in her
younger days; brothers Sidney (Belfast) and David (Crumlin) and sisters
Jessie (Belfast) and Moya (Kent); and little granddaughter Amanda. Cremation
will take place at Roselawn to-day.
1b) Mr. J. Ringland - Kidney transplant - Mr. Jack
Ringland, 85 Skipperstone Road, Bangor, died in hospital on February 19,
five years after undergoing a kidney transplant operation. Mr. Ringland was
45. Born in Belfast, he came to Bangor as a young boy and married a Bangor
girl in the Abbey nearly 25 years ago. His great interests were First Bangor
Boys' Brigade and music - he played at various times in the Ballyholme Brass
Band and in dance bands. Twenty years ago he and his wife decided to
emigrate to Canada, but the onset of his long illness upset their plans. He
worked for a long time as welder in the Belfast Shipyard; more recently he
worked at Bangor Girls' Secondary School. In 1968 Mr. Ringland has the
transplant operation in England; he stayed in Cambridge for some six months
at that time. The operation was successful, and he enjoyed quite good health
for some time. He had a wonderfully cherry personality, and showed
considerable courage throughout his illness. Mr. Ringland worshipped in
Bangor Abbey, and Canon James Hamilton conducted the services at the funeral
parlour of James Russell & Co., Bingham Lane, and later at Roselawn
Crematorium. He is survived by his wife Mabel, 17-year-old daughter Hazel;
mother Mrs. Minnie Ringland, Railwayview Street, Bangor; brother William,
Bangor; sisters Mrs. Peggy Brown, Bangor, and Mrs. Sally Mageagh, Australia.
1c) Church Notes - Women "Alert in Our Time" - The
attendances at the Women's World Day of Prayer services in Bangor on 2nd
March provided evidence of the sense of fellowship which this special day
means in the Christian calendar. The morning service in Wesley Centenary
Church was led by Mrs. J. Turner. The speaker was Mrs. J. W. Russell,
Newtownards. The readers were Mrs. Grindle and Miss Potts. (click 2nd image

5) Former St. Anne's Organist Dies at 95 - Captain
Charles J. Brennan, who was organist in St. Anne's Cathedral for 60 years,
has died in hospital in Belfast. He was 95. When Captain Brennan retired as
cathedral organist in 1964, the then Dean, now Bishop C. I. Peacocke of
Derry, said, "His sense of reverence and his attitude to the worship of the
church is surely reflected in the fact that at least 19 of his boy
choristers became parsons." Born in Hampshire, he began his career as
organist at the age of 15 in a church in Bedfordshire. He came to Ireland in
1897 as organist of Strabane Parish Church, later moving to Elmwood
Presbyterian, Belfast, where his organ recitals became popular among music
lovers. He became organist in St. Anne's Cathedral three months before its
consecration in 1904 and until his retirement the only break in his duties
there was during World War 1 in which he served with the Royal Irish
Fusiliers in France and Belgium. As city organist, Captain Brennan gave a
number of recitals in the Ulster Hall. He was active in many spheres of
musical life in Belfast, being for a number of years on the music committee
of CEMA (now the Arts Council) and a founder member and first president of
the Society of Professional Musicians in Ulster. He lectured at Queen's
University long before a Chair of Music was contemplated. He once said that
his outstanding memories of services in the cathedral were the consecration
of the nave in 1904, the funeral of Lord Carson in 1935, and the laying of
the foundation stone of the eastern extension in 1956. Captain
Brennan, whose wife died in 1968, is survived by three sons, Major General
W. B. F. Brennan, Broughton, Hants.; Mr. Desmond Brennan, Barnet; and Air
Commodore Terence Brennan, R.A.F. Headquarters, Germany. A funeral service
will be held in St. Anne's Cathedral at 12 noon on Monday, May 15.

3) I will go forth 'mong men not mailed in scorn, But in the armoury of a
pure intent, Great duties are before me & great songs, And whether crowned
or crownless when I fall, It matters not so as God's work is done. I've
learned to prize the quiet lightning deed, Not the applauding thunder at its
heels, Which men call Fame. Alexander Smith
