1. Margaret Grace Resubmitted Device.
Quarterly per pale embattled vert and argent, two trefoils vert
13274505221327450674

Her previous submission, Per bend sister argent and vert, two trefoils slipped counterchanged, was returned at Kingdom in December, 2011, for conflict with Ioan Ó Muirgheasa of Strikkenwoode (reg. 07/2004 via the Middle), Per bend wavy argent and vert, two trefoils counterchanged.. This submission clears those conflicts.

Her name appears on our January XLOI.

Herald of Record: Cornelian/Windmill

ADDENDUM Dated February 2, 2012
1. Endless Hills, Barony of the Resubmitted Award or Order Name.
Order of the Golden Lamp of the Endless Hills

The previous submission, Order of the Shining Lamp, was returned at Kingdom in Feb. 2012 because "shining" is not an adjective permitted in award and order names.

Golden - The On-Line Middle English Dictionary sn Golden <http://quod.lib.umich.edu/cgi/m/mec/med-idx?type=byte&byte=68144837&egdisplay=compact&egs=68149552>, cites various spellings, including Golden in The Monk's Tale: "He golden apples rafte of the dragoun."

Lamp - Shakespeare, The Tempest, Act IV, sc. 1, line 24, "As Hymen's Lamps shall light you." Further CT Onion, ed., A Shakespeare's Glossary, (Oxford, 1911) <http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus:text:1999.03.0068:entry=lamp>: "lamp, 1. torch" as from the Tempest. The arabic lamp is a standard heraldic charge used by the Barony in its badge, Azure, an Arabic lamp enflamed within a bordure Or, registered in August, 1999, and re-blazoned in June, 2011, with which this name is to be associated.

We have obtained from TRM of Northshield a Letter of Permission to Conflict with their previously registered "Award of the Gold Lamp" which was registered in January 2005.
This concludes the Æthelmearc Internal Letter of Intent for February 1, 2012
