Gerlac Peterson
Gerlac Peterssen( known as Gerlacus Petri)( 1377 or 1378 in Deventer – 18 November 1411) was a Dutch mystic.
He entered the Institution of the Brethren of Common Life, and devoted his time to calligraphy, transcription of manuscripts, education, and prayer.
He became connected with many illustrious contemplative men, e.g., John of Ruysbroeck, Florence Radewyns, Henry of Kalkar, Gerard of Zutphen, Thomas à Kempis, John a Kempis and Johann Vos of Huesden.
When Radewyns founded a monastery of regular canons at Windesheim, in 1386, Gerlac followed him, and remained there till 1403 as a simple clerk; he had no other employment than that of a sexton.
He has been called another Kempis, and several critics have ascribed to Kempis words or theories which belong to Gerlac.
Gerlac left his brethren to come back to his cell, where, as he said," somebody was waiting for him".
It has been maintained that" The Imitation of Christ" by Thomas à Kempis reproduced several ideas and the general spirit of Gerlac's ascetic works.
In fact, Kempis inserted into the work, which he wrote in 1441, the passage of the" Soliloquies" where Gerlac says that he would feel no pain, if necessary for the greater glory of God, to be in hell for ever.
This passage is an interpolation, which was soon deleted from the" Imitation".
The difference between the ascetic theories of Gerlac and those of the author of the" Imitation" are numerous and deep enough to make any similarities apparent.

Gus Kempis
Gustav Adolph Kempis (4 August 1865 – 19 May 1890) was a South African cricketer who played in South Africa's inaugural Test match in March 1889.
Kempis was born in Port Elizabeth, Cape Colony.
A left-arm medium pace bowler, he delivered the ball with great control of length and could break it either way off the pitch.
After taking 13 wickets in three non-first-class innings against R. G. Warton’s touring side in 1888-89, he was selected for what became the very first Test match between the two countries, played at Port Elizabeth.
He failed with the bat but took 3 for 53 and 1 for 23 as England won comfortably by 8 wickets.
The following season, playing for Natal, Kempis took 41 wickets at an average of 12.42 apiece.
These figures came from just five matches and included four hauls of more than 5 wickets in an innings and two of 10 wickets in a match: 7 for 35 and 4 for 29 against Port Elizabeth, 7 for 44 against Kimberley, 7 for 33 and 3 for 76 against Western Province and 5 for 20 against Cape Town Clubs.
He was easily the most successful bowler in the season.
He died shortly after the 1889-90 season finished, aged 24, in Chiloane Island, Mozambique.
His death went unrecorded at the time and no obituary appeared for him in "Wisden Cricketer's Almanack".
His younger brother George toured England with the first South African touring team in 1894.
