GEORGE GUSTAVUS LENNOCK, Esq. [Post-Captain of 1814.]
Was made lieutenant about May, 1795; and promoted to the rank of commander, while serving on the Jamaica station, Aug. 6, 1806. He there successively commanded tiie Mignonne and Ferret brigs.
Captain Lennock’s next appointment was, Oct. 18, 1809, to the Raven 16, in which vessel he continued upwards of four years. The following is his official account of a dashing little service performed in sight of the enemy’s fleet at Flushing, in an intricate passage, and on a lee shore, July 3, 1812:–
“When hauling over the Droograan, I perceived several of the enemy’s flotilla that had been exercising considerably to leeward in the Welling, and was induced to stand on to ascertain if there was a possibility of cutting any of the detachment off, which consisted of fourteen brigs; on proceeding into the Weiling, about 6-15 p.m., found we could fetch some of them; but, from the haziness of the weather, was unable to make it known by signal, and as standing back to do so would lose the opportunity of disturbing their manoeuvres, we plied up with them as far as Wulpen, firing occasionally in passing. The wind blowing strong on shore, our superior sailing and working enabled us to overtake seven, four of which were obliged to anchor close to the surf, under their batteries; the other three were driven on shore; and, at 7-30, were still lying on the beach with the sea beating over them. Only one shot struck us, near the stern-post.”
On reconnoitring next morning. Captain Lennock found the three brigs still on the beach, and apparently bilged. “His quickness in deciding on this attack, and his skill and spirit in executing it,” obtained him very high approbation.
On the 21st Jan. 1814, this officer was appointed to the Esk corvette, of 20 guns, which ship he paid off, and recommissioned for the Jamaica station, in Sept. 1815. His post commission bears date June 4, 1814.
Captain Lennock married, in 1829, Anne, eldest daughter of J. Walker, of Crawfordtown, Esq.

THE EIGHTH REVELATION
CHAPTER XVI
"A Part of His Passion"
AFTER this Christ shewed a part of His Passion near His dying.
I saw His sweet face as it were dry and bloodless with pale dying. And later, more pale, dead, languoring; and then turned more dead unto blue; and then more brown-blue, as the flesh turned more deeply dead. For His Passion shewed to me most specially in His blessed face (and chiefly in His lips): there I saw these four colours, though it were afore fresh, ruddy, and pleasing, to my sight. This was a pitiful change to see, this deep dying. And also the [inward] moisture clotted and dried, to my sight, and the sweet body was brown and black, all turned out of fair, life-like colour of itself, unto dry dying.
For that same time that our Lord and blessed Saviour died upon the Rood, it was a dry, hard wind, and wondrous cold, as to my sight, and what time [all] the precious blood was bled out of the sweet body that ​might pass therefrom, yet there dwelled a moisture in the sweet flesh of Christ, as it was shewed.
Bloodlessness and pain dried within; and blowing of wind and cold coming from without met together in the sweet body of Christ. And these four,—twain without, and twain within—dried the flesh of Christ by process of time. And though this pain was bitter and sharp, it was full long lasting, as to my sight, and painfully dried up all the lively spirits of Christ's flesh. Thus I saw the sweet flesh dry in seeming by part after part, with marvellous pains. And as long as any spirit had life in Christ's flesh, so long suffered He pain.
This long pining seemed to me as if He had been seven nights dead, dying, at the point of outpassing away, suffering the last pain. And when I said it seemed to me as if He had been seven night dead, it meaneth that the sweet body was so discoloured, so dry, so shrunken, so deathly, and so piteous, as if He had been seven night dead, continually dying. And methought the drying of Christ's flesh was the most pain, and the last, of His Passion.

THE SIXTH REVELATION
CHAPTER XIV
"The age of every man shall be acknowledged before him in Heaven, and every man shall be rewarded for his willing service and for his time"
AFTER this our good Lord said: I thank thee for thy travail, and especially for thy youth.
And in this [Shewing] mine understanding was lifted up into Heaven where I saw our Lord as a lord in his own house, which hath called all his dearworthy servants and friends to a stately feast. Then I saw the Lord take no place in His own house, but I saw Him royally reign in His house, fulfilling it with joy and mirth. Himself endlessly to gladden and to solace His dearworthy friends, full homely and full courteously, with marvellous melody of endless love, in His own fair blessed Countenance. Which glorious Countenance of the Godhead fulfilleth the Heavens with joy and bliss.
God shewed three degrees of bliss that every soul shall have in Heaven that willingly hath served God in any degree in earth. The first is the worshipful thanks of our Lord God that he shall receive when he is delivered of pain. This thanking is so high and so worshipful that the soul thinketh it filleth him though there were no more. For methought that all the pain and travail that might be suffered by all living men might not deserve the worshipful thanks that one man shall have that willingly hath served God. The second is ​that all the blessed creatures that are in Heaven shall see that worshipful thanking, and He maketh his service known to all that are in Heaven. And here this example was shewed:—A king, if he thank his servants, it is a great worship to them, and if he maketh it known to all the realm, then is the worship greatly increased.—The third is, that as new and as gladdening as it is received in that time, right so shall it last without end.
And I saw that homely and sweetly was this shewed, and that the age of every man shall be [made] known in Heaven, and [he] shall be rewarded for his willing service and for his time. And specially the age of them that willingly and freely offer their youth unto God, passingly is rewarded and wonderfully is thanked.
For I saw that whene'er what time a man or woman is truly turned to God,—for one day's service and for his endless will he shall have all these three decrees of bliss. And the more the loving soul seeth this courtesy of God, the lifer he is to serve him all the days of his life.

THE SEVENTH REVELATION
CHAPTER XV
"It is not God's will that we follow the feeling of pains in sorrow and mourning for them"
AND after this He shewed a sovereign ghostly pleasance in my soul. I was fulfilled with the everlasting sureness, mightily sustained without any painful ​dread. This feeling was so glad and so ghostly that I was in all peace and in rest, that there was nothing in earth that should have grieved me.
This lasted but a while, and I was turned and left to myself in heaviness, and weariness of my life, and irksomeness of myself, that scarcely I could have patience to live. There was no comfort nor none ease to me but faith, hope, and charity; and these I had in truth, but little in feeling.
And anon after this our blessed Lord gave me again the comfort and the rest in soul, in satisfying and sureness so blissful and so mighty that no dread, no sorrow, no pain bodily that might be suffered should have distressed me. And then the pain shewed again to my feeling, and then the joy and the pleasing, and now that one, and now that other, divers times—I suppose about twenty times. And in the time of joy I might have said with Saint Paul: Nothing shall dispart me from the charity of Christ; and in the pain I might have said with Peter: Lord, save me: I perish!
This Vision was shewed me, according to mine understanding, [for] that it is speedful to some souls to feel on this wise: sometime to be in comfort, and sometime to fail and to be left to themselves. God willeth that we know that He keepeth us even alike secure in woe and in weal. And for profit of man's soul, a man is sometime left to himself; although sin is not always the cause: for in this time I sinned not wherefore I should be left to myself—for it was so sudden. Also I deserved not to have this blessed feeling. But freely our Lord giveth when He will; and suffereth us [to be] in woe sometime. And both is one love.
​For it is God's will that we hold us in comfort with all our might: for bliss is lasting without end, and pain is passing and shall be brought to nought for them that shall be saved. And therefore it is not God's will that we follow the feelings of pain in sorrow and mourning for them, but that we suddenly pass over, and hold us in endless enjoyment.
# Revelations of Divine Love/Chapter 12

THE FOURTH REVELATION
CHAPTER XII
"The dearworthy blood of our Lord Jesus Christ as verily as it is most precious, so verily it is most plenteous"
AND after this I saw, beholding, the body plenteously bleeding in seeming of the Scourging, as thus:—The fair skin was broken full deep into the tender flesh with sharp smiting all about the sweet body. So plenteously the hot blood ran out that there was neither seen skin nor wound, but as it were all blood. And when it came where it should have fallen down, then it vanished. Notwithstanding, the bleeding continued awhile: till it might be seen and considered. And this was so plenteous, to my sight, that methought if it had been so in kind and in substance at that time, it should have made the bed all one blood, and have passed over about.
And then came to my mind that God hath made waters plenteous in earth to our service and to our bodily ease for tender love that He hath to us, but yet liketh Him better that we take full homely His blessed blood to wash us of sin: for there is no water that is made that He liketh so well to give us. For it is most ​plenteous as it is most precious: and that by the virtue of His blessed Godhead; and it is [of] our Kind, and all-blissfully belongeth to us by the virtue of His precious love.
The dearworthy blood of our Lord Jesus Christ as verily as it is most precious, so verily it is most plenteous. Behold and see! The precious plenty of His dearworthy blood descended down into Hell and burst her bands and delivered all that were there which belonged to the Court of Heaven. The precious plenty of His dearworthy blood overfloweth all Earth, and is ready to wash all creatures of sin, which be of goodwill, have been, and shall be. The precious plenty of His dearworthy blood ascended up into Heaven to the blessed body of our Lord Jesus Christ, and there is in Him, bleeding and praying for us to the Father,—and is, and shall be as long as it needeth;—and ever shall be as long as it needeth. And evermore it floweth in all Heavens enjoying the salvation of all mankind, that are there, and shall be—fulfilling the numberthat faileth.

Uncertainty of life by John Newton
    See! another year is gone!
    Quickly have the seasons passed!
    This we enter now upon
    May to many prove our last.
    Mercy hitherto has spared,
    But have mercies been improved?
    Let us ask, am I prepared
    Should I be this year removed?
    Some we now no longer see,
    Who their mortal race have run;
    Seemed as fair for life as we,
    When the former year begun;
    Some, but who God only knows,
    Who are here assembled now,
    Ere the present year shall close,
    To the stroke of death must bow.
    Life a field of battle is,
    Thousands fall within our view;
    And the next death-bolt that flies,
    May be sent to me or you:
    While we preach, and while we hear,
    Help us, Lord, each one, to think,
    Vast eternity is near,
    I am standing on the brink.
    If from guilt and sin set free,
    By the knowledge of Thy grace;
    Welcome, then, the call will be
    To depart and see Thy face:
    To Thy saints, while here below,
    With new years, new mercies come;
    But the happiest year they know
    Is their last, which leads them home.

By Florence Earle Coates of The Vigilantes
(The battle of Sedan, ending Sept. 2, 1870, in an overwhelming victory for the Prussians and the capture of the Emperor Napoleon III, was the decisive battle of the Franco-Prussian War.)
How terrible the victory That undermines the soul! How better, better far to fail— To falter from the goal, And with a brave acceptance meet The triumph of a high defeat!
France!—generous Land beloved of all! More glorious made through pain, Sedan beheld thy loss,—not fall, And taught how men may gain Conquests that base desires impart, Corrupt the will, and rob the heart!

# Report of The Inter-Governmental Committee, Malaysia/Constitutional Safeguards

30. Constitutional Safeguards
(1) It is mentioned in other parts of this Report that the Federal Constitution should provide that certain provisions relating to the Borneo States should not be amended or repealed without the concurrence of the Government of the State concerned. These provisions relate to immigration, citizenship representation in the Federal Parliament and the High Court of the Borneo States. In addition, in relation to the Borneo States, special safeguards on these lines will also be needed in respect of the distribution of legislative powers, and the executive authority of the Borneo States on matters within their legislative powers, and related financial arrangements and in respect of the following other matters—
       (i) religion;
       (ii) language; and
       (iii) the special position of the indigenous races.
(2) It is considered desirable that modifications to the special constitutional arrangements made in respect of a Borneo State should, subject to the safeguard of the consent of the State Government in cases where this is required, be capable of being amended to the extent of bringing the State into line with the present States of the Federation without the requirement that the Federal Bill making such amendment should be supported by the votes of not less than two-thirds of the total number of members of the Houses of Parliament Article 159(3) should not, therefore, apply to such amendments which would then fall under Article 159 (4)(bb). However, Article 159 (4) (bb) should be amended so as to ensure that such modifications could not go beyond bringing a Borneo State into line with the present States of the Federation.
# Report of The Inter-Governmental Committee, Malaysia/Emergency Powers

​33. Emergency Powers
In order to enable a Proclamation of Emergency to be made when a grave emergency threatens the security or economic life of the Federation or any part thereof, whatever the cause and even though no war, external aggression or internal disturbance has actually broken out, Article 150(1) should be amended by the deletion of the words, "whether by war or external aggression or internal disturbance". Furthermore, in order to ensure that the central government will have adequate powers to govern during a national emergency, Article 150 should also be amended to give Parliament unqualified power, while a Proclamation of Emergency is in force, to make laws which appear to Parliament to be required by reason of the emergency with respect to any matter, other than religion, citizenship, language, Muslim law or the custom of the Malays or Native law or custom in North Borneo or Sarawak, notwithstanding anything in the Constitution. Article 79 of the Constitution would not apply to a Bill for any such law, nor should any such law be invalid on the ground of any inconsistency with any provision of the Constitution. Article 150(7) would apply to every such law which would, consequently, cease to have effect six months after the end of the emergency to the extent that it could not have been validly made but for the emergency.
# Report of The Inter-Governmental Committee, Malaysia/Establishment of the Federation of Malaysia

CHAPTER II ESTABLISHMENT OF THE FEDERATION OF MALAYSIA
10. The Federation will consist of the States of the existing Federation of Malaya Sabah (at present known as North Borneo), Sarawak, and Singapore and also if agreement is reached on the admission of Brunei, that State. The name of the Federation shall be Malaysia.
11. The Committee noted the mention stated in paragraph 4 of the joint public statement (Annex C) to conclude a formal agreement embodying detailed constitutional arrangements including safeguards for the special interests of North Borneo and Sarawak. In order to carry out this intention the annexures to the formal agreement should include:―—
12. The Committee examined the Constitution of the Federation of Malaya and this Report sets out the amendments, including transitional provisions which the Committee considers will be necessary to meet the requirements of North Borneo and Sarawak (hereinafter referred to as the Borneo States) and, subject to these and the amendments necessary in relation to any other new State, accepts that the Constitution of the Federation of Malaysia will be based upon the Constitution of the Federation of Malaya as it applies in relation to the States which are at present States of the Federation of Malaya. This Report will be laid more the Legislative Council of North Borneo and the Council Negri of Sarawak. If it is approved by those Councils, the draft of the formal agreement will be drawn up and initialled by representatives of the United Kingdom, the Federation of Malaya, North Borneo and Sarawak.
13. The Committee recognised that the nature of the constitutional arrangements to govern the relationship of the State of Singapore to the Federation of Malaya was not a matter within its terms of reference. But certain of the Committee's recommendations, for example regarding the composition of the Federal Supreme Court, and the establishment of territorial High Courts are in some respects necessarily of general application and in other respects such that a considerable degree of uniformity is clearly desirable. Consequently in a few contexts the recommendations are formulated in gerenal terms applicable to the whole of Malaysia and the Committee has expressed ​the hope that these recommendations will be acceptable in relation to Singapore and, should Brunei join the Federation, that State.
14. In certain respects the Committee agreed that the requirements of the Borneo States could appropriately be met by undertaking or assurances to be given the Government of the Federation of Malaya rather than by Constitutional provisions and these are mentioned in the appropriate sections of this Report. The Committee agreed that the more important undertakings should be included in the formal agreement and envisaged that the other undertakings and assurances might be dealt with in exchanges of letters between the Government concerned.
