Anniversary Address. 7 



vested them in the Incumbent and his successors for ever, as 

 " >S^^. Paul's Parsonage.'' 



Her Grace also erected in the church a massive monument 

 to the memory of her late husband, a full-length figure of the 

 Duke, in the robes of a Knight of the Garter. The likeness 

 is excellent. 



And to crown the whole, the friends of the late Duke, out 

 of respect to his memory, siibscribed for a memorial window, 

 to be placed in the east end of that church, of which he was 

 the Founder and Patron. The Cartoon which was furnished 

 by Mr. Dyce, as before mentioned, was sent to the Royal 

 manufactory at Munich, and there the glass work was executed 

 under the superintendence of Professor Ainmiiller, in the very 

 best style of the art of glass staining ; the King of Bavaria 

 himself taking great interest in having it completed in the 

 most perfect manner. 



The subject of the painting is the preaching of the Apostles 

 Paul and Barnabas at Antioch, and so beautiful is the execu- 

 tion, that it is the admiration of all who have seen it. 



To understand the work, it is necessary to peruse the 13th 

 chapter of the Acts of the Apostles ; but the 4:6th verse is the 

 one to which the picture has particular reference. It repre- 

 sents St. Paul turning from the Jews to the Gentiles, and in 

 the act of addressing those unbelievers : — " Then Paul and 

 Barnabas waxed bold, and said. It was necessary that the 

 word of God should first have been spoken to you : but seeing 

 ye put it from you, and Judge yourselves unworthy of ever- 

 lasting life, lo, we turn to the Gtentiles ." 



The picture occupies the five principal lights in the window, 

 the centre by the two Apostles, on their left are the Jews, and 

 the Gentiles are on the right side. Rage and intense jealousy 

 are depicted in the countenances of the former, while the 

 latter are characterized by gentleness and meekness. 



In the lower part of the centre light is the following 

 inscription : — 



" In the year MDCCCLVI this window is 

 placed by public subscription to the much valued 

 memory of Hugh the Zrd Duke of Northumber- 

 land, the Founder of this Church."
