Greetings fair Atlantia from Lady Rebecca the Contrary, autocrat of Sacred
Stone Investiture.

First the obligatory Lost and Found List some of which may be claimed
already.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--

one canvas bag with wooden handles containing a smallish white pillow and
other things
one black hat with a small rim
one silver ring in a very cool shape
one earring
several goblets both wooden and glass
one wooden folding chair which appears to be broken (is that why it was
left?)


Secondly the start of my Thank yous: <G>
----------------------------------------

I knew that I'd be working a lot as an autocrat but I never realized how
many others would work so hard all day!  I'm truly grateful and please
forgive me for any names I might have missed.  This may be long with many
updates but I felt it was the least I could do.  (I KNOW I'm forgetting
folks so please feel free to chime in.)  I'll say one thing after
autocratting at this event.  I feel completely sympathetic to any autocrats
and if you as autocrat ever see me at your event don't ever feel shy about
asking for help, even if I'm busy with official business.  If I can't help
you I'll find help for you!

Firstly, thanks to Oshi for creating one of the most stupendous feasts ever.
Thanks to his lady wife: Lady Sine ni Dheaghaidh, to the Honorable Lord
Eldred and Lady Eldreadth for working and cleaning ALL day in the kitchen!
Thanks to Lady Deborah la Viaggiatrice and lady Sybilla who fought constant
wind to keep a troll table out doors.  Thanks to Lady Nia and Lady Aislynn
of the Forest for helping a new MOL through some practicum experience.
Thanks to Duibhasa (sp?) Maeve of Strickenwood for manging lunch in between
order meetings.  Thanks to Master Bran and Wolfgang the Gamesman  for
setting up the hall so well and so quickly with no direction from me.
Thanks to Baroness Deirdre Fletcher the baronial seneschal and my deputy for
this event.  Thanks to Adeliza for making the prizes for the A&S contest and
arranging judges for me.  Thanks to Christoph Bohiem for making the rapier
