EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this timeless print from May 1998, we are transported to the enchanting town of Lostwithiel in Cornwall, where a momentous occasion is taking place - Mayor Making. The air is filled with anticipation as the civic party gathers to witness the prestigious Mayor Choosing ceremony for Jeanne Jones, who would hold this esteemed position for both 1998 and 1999. In this remarkable snapshot, we see a distinguished group of individuals adorned in their resplendent robes and town regalia. From left to right stands Jonathan Abbiss, the Town Sergeant; Fran Dennison, the diligent Town Clerk; Julia Parfitt, an elegant escort and daughter of Jeanne Jones herself; Councillor Jeanne Jones radiating grace as she assumes her mayoral duties; John Andrew and Margaret Andrew serving as Deputy Mayor and Deputy Mayoress respectively; Reverend Fred Stevens offering his blessings as Mayors Chaplain; and lastly Andrew Daniell standing tall as Sergeant at Mace. The backdrop of this scene showcases a majestic weeping willow tree that seems to bow respectfully before these custodians of tradition. Every detail within this photograph speaks volumes about the importance placed upon ceremonial proceedings within Cornish culture. Preserved by photographer Jonathan Barker's skilled lens, this image now finds its rightful place within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection - an invaluable testament to Lostwithiel's rich history and enduring traditions. A poignant reminder that even fleeting moments can leave an indelible mark on
