Of course, the feudal set -up pro- vided the great lords with the where- withal for magnificence—the lords received gifts from their tenants and kings received gifts from their nobles; and the graduated scale for giving and receiving was as well as- certained as the quiddam honorarium of any barrister or physician. Queen Elizabeth received a large part of her wardrobe as gifts from her courtiers, and if the quality or quantity was not satisfactory, the donors were unceremoniously inform- ed of the situation. When Hery Ill entertained a thous- and knights, peers, and assorted nobles who came to attend the Yule- tide marriage of the Princess Mar- garet, his majesty received a royal Christmas gift of 2,700 pounds, plus 600 fat oxen from the Archbishop of York. With similar assistance, whether exhorted or given in the spirit of generosity appropriate to the season, hiS majesty could well afford to give Christmas feasts for the poor like the one given in Wesminster Hall in 1248, which lasted a week. every Good Wish/ 980 CFPL's ALEX It ELIVIAN Our conratulations and best wishes go to two Gerrie couples who were Married in the late nineties and are celebrating anniversaries this holiday season OnDecember 21st., Mr, and Mrs. Thos .Short were 53 years married.
