Roese and chaperones John Comitz
and Darlene Stickler, left Lake-
Lehman High School on Wednesday,
April 18, via motorcoach for
Newark International Airport to
embark on a pilgrimage to Great
Britain and returned to Lake-
Lehman on Thursday, April 26.
The group stayed at the Gros-
venor Hotel, 101 Buckingham
Palace Road while in London with
day trips via British rail into the
countryside.
While in London the group saw
the Changing of the Guard at Buck-
Westminster
Abbey, Houses of Parliament, the
infamous tower housing the Crown
Jewels, the world famous Madame
Tussaud’s Wax Museum, and
attended Easter services at St.
Paul’s Cathedral, site of the recent
royal wedding. They also experi-
enced a medieval banquet at the
White Tower Restaurant behind the
Tower of London their first night in
London.
The day trips into the countryside
via British rail included Salisbury,
Bath, Warwick, Stratford-on-Avon,
Canterbury and Dover. The concept
of Chaucer’s pilgrimage in his
“Canterbury Tales”, which the stu-
dents recently finished studying in
school, was fresh in their minds as

they made their own historical pil-
grimage from London to Canterbury
Cathedral and stand at the Shrine of
St. Thomas-A-Beckett martyred by
King Henry II.
The group also journeyed to Scot-
land where they stayed one night at
the North British Hotel on Princess
Street in Edinburgh. Their first
evening in Scotland was marked by
a four-course Scottish banquet with
Scottish singing and dancing and
the Piping of Haggis.
One afternoon was spent touring
the medieval section of this unique
city of Edinburgh with its famous
“Royal Mile” between Edinburgh
Castle and the Palace of Holyrood

An eight-day pilgrimage to an
empire which once ruled the seas,
spawned Shakespeare, Milton and
Chaucer, bestowed a common law
and a Magna Carta as the basis of
all constitutional liberty, and initi-
ated the entire concept of university
education, seems like a fitting way
to end a course entitled ‘British
Literaure Survey’’. Such is the real-
ity for students at Lake-Lehman
High School.

The Dallas School District has
requested the cooperation of parents
who have children of school age who
have not been registered for the

instruction, says it is essential that
the school district be informed of all
new students planning to register,

the Dallas School District encour-

Administration Building, Church
St., Dallas with Mrs. Farr. Junior
