The interest with which I have read his pages will I am sure be shared by all who have at heart the well-being of an Institution which occupies a unique place in English history, although happily there is not anything unique nowadays in the endeavour which the Magdalen Hospital makes in face of a gigantic evil. The story Mr. Compston tells gives abundant evidence of the change for the better in public opinion regarding this crying wrong and its remedy. It shows too the growth of a sounder judg- ment as to the methods of dealing with it. For every reason it is right that this book should have been written, and Mr. -

The Berkeleys of Canterbury
Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 69 1955 THE BERKELEYS OF CANTERBURY AN EIGHTEENTH CENTURY STUDY By DOKOTHY GARDINER, F.S.A. I RECENTLY became possessed (from a second-hand bookseller's cata- logue) of a copy of the will of Mrs. Eliza Berkeley, the wife of George Berkeley, Canon of Canterbury in the sixth Prebend, 1768-95. The will is contained in a small neatly bound volume, clearly written and carefully indexed. Mrs. Berkeley speaks of having a fair copy made of certain " scralled sheets " on which she had written, and subsequently altered and interlined, her last will and testament. Mine would seem to be the copy in question, for there are pencilled notes by Mrs. Berkeley in the margins. She died in 1800, and had left the Precincts, Canter- bury, five years earlier, on her husband, the Canon's, death. She had also left Canterbury and was living at Chertsey, and, when the end came, at Cheltenham. But her memory of the Precincts and her Kentish entourage was very vivid, and with her help and the contem- porary biographies of some of her friends, together with the Minutes of the Dean and Chapter in her husband's time, one may create a picture of Canterbury life during the latter half of the eighteenth century and bring to view certain very interesting people. II The Precincts seems not to have been at this time a very quiet place. Soldiers had been in the habit of parading and exercising there, causing so much inconvenience that, at Midsummer, 1780, the Dean and Chapter forbade the practice, though a few months later they so far relented as to allow parade " for the purpose and during the time of roll-call only "—at the discretion of the Dean or Vice-Dean. -

r CHAPTER 4 THE 18TH-CENTURY SCOTTISH SERMON: bk)DES OF RHETORIC B ýý 18f G Z c9. ;CJ . 'f 259. TILE 18TH-CENTURY SCOTT ISi1 SERMON: )JODES OF RHETORIC Now-a-days, a play, a real or fictitious history, or a romance, however incredible and however un- important the subject may be with regard to the beat interests of men, and though only calculated to tickle a volatile fancy, arcImore valued than the best religious treatise .... This statement in the preface to a Scottish Evangelical tract of the 1770s assembles very clearly the reaction in Evangelical circles to contemporary trends in 18th-century Scottish letters, The movement in favour of a less concen- trated form of religion and the attractions of the new vogue for elegant and melodic sermons were regarded by the majority of Evangelicals as perilous innovations. From the 1750s onwards, the most important task facing Moderate sermon- writers was how to blend the newly-admired concepts of fine feeling and aesthetic taste with a modicum of religious teaching. The writers of Evangelical sermons, on the other hand, remained faithful to the need to restate the familiar tenets of doctrinal faith, often to the exclusion of all else. The Evangelicals regarded the way in which Moderate divines courted fine feeling in their pulpits as both regrettable and ominous. In some quarters, it even assumed the character of a possible harbinger of doom for Scottish prosperity. This reaction on the part of the Evangelicals accounts for the frequent 'alarms' published in connexion with religious topics in 18th-century Scotland. -

FIFTY years ago, on Sunday evening, August 5th, 1906, I first gave an address in the open air. I can well remember the occasion, and can still picture the scene in my mind. I stood upon a chair just outside the door of Hillsborough National Schools, Sheffield. My knees felt weak, my tongue was dry, and my heart beat violently. I t was, I think, the very first occasion I had spoken a Christian message. At any rate, it was the first occasion I had spoken in the open air. 258 The Gospel Magadne If my memory serves me rightly, I was but one of several young men who gave a short word. -

Nicholas Dixon November 2018 ii Thesis Summary The Activity and Influence of the Established Church in England, c. 1800-1837 Nicholas Andrew Dixon Pembroke College, Cambridge This thesis examines the various ways in which the Church of England engaged with English politics and society from c. 1800 to 1837. Assessments of the early nineteenth-century Church of England remain coloured by a critique originating in radical anti-clerical polemics of the period and reinforced by the writings of the Tractarians and Élie Halévy. It is often assumed that, in consequence of social and political change, the influence of a complacent and reactionary church was irreparably eroded by 1830. -

REFLECTIONS ON GRACE A HISTORY OF GRACE BAPTIST CHURCH CARLISLE, PENNSYLVANIA JAMES B. ESHELMAN 1 © James B. Eshelman 2007 2 INTRODUCTION istory is never best told by men. We do not see events fully as HGod sees them. Nor can we be certain that the most crucial contributors to those events have not been overlooked. There is a dark side to history which is better left untold. All the members of our church, including its leaders, “ . were once dark- ness” (Eph. 5:8). Scripture itself teaches us to be discreet. “It is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret” (Eph. 5:12). If this darkness were fully recorded as God and the angels know it, then the grace and kindness of God toward such sinners would be the chief note of our account. Also we believe that the most amazing contributions to the work of God are unseen: Hours spent in the discipline of secret prayer; Lifelong application of God’s Word in family life; Patient catechiz- ing of children; Acts of charity, hospitality and sacrifice never mentioned; Witnessing and suffering for Jesus’ sake; Heart engage- ment in loving worship of God which is not measured by public appearances. The widow’s “very small copper coins” (Mark 12:42) mean more than the millionaire’s tithe. Only the Lord knows the heart that is most aglow with love for Him. Human history tends to shine the spotlight on generals, while within the ranks of their armies are countless heroes. It is not always the strategy of leaders but the grit and character of those who execute the plan which wins the day. -

One Hundred Years
ONE HUNDRED YEARS BEING THE SHORT HISTORY OF THE CHURCH MISSIONARY SOCIETY "1tbou ebalt remember all tbe wa'!? wblcb tbe 1orb tb'!? Gob kb tbec." ,DET. Tiii. ! ~birlJ <$bition LONDON CHURCH MISSIONARY SOCIETY SALISBURY SQUARE, E.C. 1899 PREFACE. HIS little book has been written for publication in advance of the complete· History of the Church Missionary Society. The greater part of it con sists of a very brief summary of some of the facts D given in the larger work ; and here and there sentences and paragraphs are actually reproduced from the still unpublished volumes. But part of Chapter IX., and Chapters X. and XI., have had to be written before the corresponding portions of the complete History. · To many of the most · important parts of the complete History, however, there is nothing corresponding in these pages. For the History dwells at some length upon the environment of the Society at different periods in the century, that is to say, upon the state of the Church of England at home, noticing various religious movements, developments, and controversies, and introducing such men as Bishops Blomfield and Wilberforce, Archbishops Tait and Benson, Lords Shaftesbury and Cairns, Sir Arthur Blackwood and Mr. Pennefather, Bishop Ryle and Canon Hoare. Also upon the progress of Christian Missions generally, with references to the work of men like Bishops Selwyn, Patteson, and Steere, of Morrison, Livingstone, and Hudson Taylor. Also upon public events and affairs abroad which have affected Missions, such as the Slave Trade, African Exploration, the Opium Traffic, the colonization of New Zealand, and a whole series of important events in India.
