DG STEWART: OUR 'MH' DAYS
When the Late Mr. DG Stewart left MH (Mt Hermon) at the end of 1963 most of the staff members of the school were foreigners (see 1963 Staff pix).
In the school staff pix of 1964 we see Mr. Murray stepping into Mr. Stewart’s shoes.
Mr. Stewart visited MH in 1978, my second last year in MH as a teacher. He was the Chief Guest for Speech Day in November 1978. In the same year in another photo we see Mr. Stewart with some ex-students on the staff. There were 13 ex-students on the staff in 1978. These two photographs appear in the annual Hermonite magazine which I edited. The magazine was dedicated to Mr and Mrs. Murray for their 24 years of service in MH. Mr Murray retired at the end of 1978. It was my best year as a teacher in MH.
I got hold of these precious pictures from UK Hermonites’ website and I want to thank them, particularly James Sinclair, and share these photographs with fellow Hermonites.
