Dear Friends
A TRIBUTE TO TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO ATHLETICS
The link below is of the video presentation in Trinidad honouring the 4 x 440 world record breaking relay team: Lennox Yearwood, Kent Bernard, Edwin Roberts, and Wendell Mottley.
Also, some old emails that have been left behind and upon cleaning the files and placing each in its place I have decided to publish them.

I saw a photo you circulated recently, of Derek Phillips and his wife.
I would like to know what his e mail address is?
Nigel does not have one in his listing.
Thank you.

Dear Ladislao.
Elizabeth and her Brother Glen were on The Aqualads swimming team.
We became very good friends.
We use to go to their House and spend time swimming and lime around.
Our Brother Andrés Eloy Moffie was also on the team.
In 2010 o went to visit with Elizabeth and her family in Milton, Ontario, Canadá.
Then the following year, went to her daughter Christel’s wedding.
There I met with an Abbey Old BOY, Ian Serude, and her Brother Glen.
It was a beautiful occasion and wedding.  Well here is The rest Of The story.
Elizabeth, if there is anything you WILL like to add, You are welcome.  Beautiful memories.
Salvador. God bless.

Hello.
We finally had a reunion in Lafayette, Louisiana with Alan Chandler, Kenwyn Chandler, Debbie Chandler, Nadine Bonamy.  They came from Houston Texas.
We had a very enjoyable evening and an exquisite dinner made by my wife Olga Ferrer.  We had pabellon criollo, Venezuelan typical dish which consists of:
White rice, black beans, shredded meat, plantain, shredded white cheese, and arepa.
With flan for dessert, and coffee.
Alan and I have not seen each other since 1974. 
It is always a great pleasure to meet with Abbey School brothers.
My regards to all and God bless us all.
Long live the Abbey School, Mount St Benedict.
Salvador Coscarart 1967 - 1974.  Abbey Boy for ever.
Salvador. God bless.

My Dear, Sir Garnet,   (Muchas Gracias)
I trust what you are saying here is true? 
So, to the best of your knowledge, there is a Time Capsule buried in the wall of our school, somewhere.
Do you think you can get 1 or 2, other brothers to confirm this??
Once a brother told me a story, many moons ago of a place, where a lot of old papers and documents are, still untouched in the Castle. 
Where this spot is, in the Castle, is an excellent location, where no one would really ever go, unless you were hiding from a mad monk, ha! ha!
I lived on the Mount 4-5 years, and never even tthought of this spot, you can't guess this one, I know it’s still there.   
Maybe, our next mission could be to retrieve this Time Capsule. 
Anyhow, I did get a Knight of Wisdom, Sir George, to investigate some of these claims, and this Nostalgic Sight, is what he found,  
Attila you know anything about this Falcon in the Tree??   
Cheers, Mis Amigos-
Adios, Glen..

Funny that this subject should make an appearance at this time,… To the best of my knowledge,… there's a Time Capsule buried in the wall of the School, somewhere…. and I had been thinking that this might be an appropriate time to retrieve and open said Time Capsule,.. as was recently done at C.I.C for their Sesquicentennial celebration.
After examination,… some present-day material was added, before reinsertion into the alcove.
However, with the situation at MSB being quite different and somewhat uncertain….. and with the number of former students inevitably and inexorably edging toward #0,…… it would be nice to see what it contains.
In order to forestall the penchant in Trinidad for allowing Historical Buildings to deteriorate to the point of Self-destruction before any money and effort is expended towards restoration,…. that Entire Complex needs to be declared a National Monument and World Heritage Site.
Unfortunately that august body moves at a pace that would make a Snail look like Usain Bolt.

My Dear, Sir David, (Knight of Calypso).  
You hold the precious tablets that were taken out of a hole, from the stone wall, that the Arawak's built.  
For safe keeping, until the time is right. 
You went to the Mount in the mid 40's. 
You write to me of this strange dream, of an older Knight you did not recognize.  
David, if you did not recognize this Knight, then I must go to a higher circle, and tell them of this dream, for only they know the secrets of that Great Circle. 
If there is a Box That Is Already There, your dream is a Key, if now is the time for it to be revealed. 
I cannot say, for there are pages, in our great book, which only a few can view. 
I will pass this important letter on.  
Thank You for sharing, in this Club, this is not strange, The Tales Of The Knights Of White Stones, are ALL DREAMS, that have been passed on, from Circle to Circle.

Hi Glen,
This is indeed very strange-- last night in a dream an old knight from the mount came to me (I did not recognise him and said) tell Glen McKoy that when he is writing his book he must put in a paragraph to inform all mount knights that when they die before they leave the earth atmosphere they must go back to Mount Tabor and it is very important that::
That they put their name in a box that is already there saying that they have left the earth for another voyage.  
That was all the dream said and now I get this email from you-- well freak me out-- I do not know what else to say—
Later, "bandit"

Hello Ladislao,
Very sorry it took "this long" to respond.  The simple explanation is that I am not that experienced with "LinkedIn".
I am just getting the hang of "facebook".
Since I am more comfortable with "hotmail".
A thousand pardons requested, and for health reasons I have not been as active as I used to be on hotmail.
I have however been persistent and through some of my other OB's have steered me in a direction so that I can read the Abbey School Circulars.
Thank you so much for your really thoughtful contribution to the continued service and loving dedication for all you have done and continue to do. 
Sincerely, a very proud Abbey School OB 
Cornel de Freitas.

Hello Ladislao,
Hoping all is great with you.
Two questions:
1!- do you know how I can join this "Abbey School group on "LinkedIn" ? 
2- It has been a very long time since I have received the Abbey School Circular???
Any reason you can give for why?
Devout MSB Brother,
Cornel
