as Lord Laurel will be taken by Boncour, subject to the confirmation
by the Board. The files of the college will be delivered to Boncour
be Denis Crus. of the Titans between August 1 and August 15, during
Denis' visit to the West.
The College of Arms does herewith recognize
the re-establishment of the "Crusadens", who are
sworn to "stand under Arms at the Sepulcher of Jesus of Nazareth,
in Jerusalem, for a period not less than 24 hours continuous",

In order to bring the regalia of the College
of Arms (Heralds) more into line with proper period practice,
the following is herewith instituted:
Cornettes; Pursuivants Extraordinary:
May wear a green sash over the left shoulder,
charged with the crossed trumps of the College of Arms, or a green
surcoat, charged front and back with the crossed trumps (Or).
Chief Heraldic Officers of Baronies or
other Branches:
May wear a Tabard bearing the Arms of the
College on the back and right sleeve, and the Arms of their Branch
on the front and right sleeve; or the sash, or the simple surcoat;
or a surcoat bearing the Arms of the College on the back and the
Arms of their Branch on the front.
Titled Pursuivants and Heralds:
May wear all of the above; or change the
left sleeve of the Tabard to bear a badge they may register for
their title (see: badge for Dragon Herald); or they wear the Cloak,
which will be green, and bear the Arms of the College on the back
and right breast and a Shield of the Arms of their Branch on the
left breast.
Kings (Queens) of Arms:
May wear all of the above.
All regalia may be lined as the wearer sees
fit, and may be bordured in alternate sections of the principal
colours of the Arms displayed.
All heralds should be possessed of a staff,
just over their own height, painted green and bearing ribbons
of green and gold. It may be decorated at the top at the herald's
discretion.
Titled Pursuivants, titled Heralds and Kings
(Queens) of Arms may carry a Baton, decorated with alternating
stripes of green and gold, and decorated at the end at the bearer's
discretion.
Lady heralds may, rather than the Tabard
and Surcoat, base their regalia on the Cote-Hardie (Gates
of Hell). When sleeved as a Tabard, it falls under Tabard regulations,
and when unsleeved, it falls under Surcoat regulations.
See attached illustration sheet for details.
NOTE the difference between a Tabard and a Surcoat.
