The top right corner has a dragon? with a curling tail, wings and a red eye and tongue. This is in yellow on a black background. The bottom left corner is also yellow on a black ground and is a swan floating on yellow water. It has a red eye and legs. At the base of the coat of arms is the following "AUDENDO / ATQUE / AGENDO". It is in yellow lettering on a black ground with a yellow border. The crest belonged to one of the Hudson-Taylor boys who went to Wesley.
