PETER FRASER
Below the window is the memorial plaque to Peter Fraser who died aged 20. Clearly this window did not only tell the bible story but also had deeper significance for his grieving parents.
William Nathaniel Fraser died in 1899 and his wife Philadelphia Iambe (née Veitch) died in 1900. The Fraser family lived at Findrack from the 17th century and are descended from the Frasers of Lovat and Saltoun.
William N Fraser’s parents were Francis Fraser (5th of Findrack, 1762-1824) and Garden Winchester.
Francis Fraser’s parents were Francis (4th) b.1737, and Henrietta Baird, daughter of William Baird, of Auchmedden, and Anne Duff.
Jesus returned to visit Cana in Galilee, where he had changed the water into wine.
In the city of Capernaum, some 18 miles from Cana, lived one of the king’s important officials whose son was sick. The man heard that Jesus had come from Judea and was now in Galilee. So he went to Jesus and begged him to come to Capernaum and heal his son, who was almost dead. Jesus said to him, “You people must see miraculous signs and wonders before you will believe in me.”
The king’s official said, “Sir, come before my little son dies.” Jesus answered, “Go. Your son will live.”
The man believed what Jesus told him and went home. On the way home, the man’s servants came and met him. They said, “Your son lives.”
The man asked, “What time did my son begin to get well?” They answered, “It was about one o’clock yesterday when the fever left him.” The father knew that one o’clock was the same time that Jesus had said, “Your son will live.” So the man and everyone in his house believed in Jesus.
That was the second miraculous sign that Jesus did after coming from Judea to Galilee.
The window is self-explanatory. Jesus blesses the nobleman. Above them a clearly very pale son rises from what might have been his death-bed. A scroll bearing the words, from the King James Bible version of this passage, divides the two scenes.
