Copy of engraving in Cathedral of bishop Medley in the year of his Consecration, from Oil Tainting in Wadham College Hall , Oxford. History It was Major General Sir Howard Douglas, Lieutenant- Governor of New Brunswick from 1824 to 1831, who first urged upon His Majesty's Secretary of State for the Colonies the establishment of a separate diocese for this Province. This however, did not come about until 1845, when the Reverend John Medley, of the Diocese of Exeter, was consecrated the first Bishop of Fredericton. The Letters Patent appointing him are in the Cathedral vaults. The first impulse was given to the erection of the Cath- edral by friends of the Bishop in Exeter who presented him, when he left for New Brunswick, with a cheque for £1400 "towards a cathedral church, or any other church purpose." Stimulated by this generous offering the Bishop employed Mr. Frank Wills to draw plans for a cathedral for his new diocese. He sent him to Snettisham in Norfolk to take measurements of the fine parish church there, which appeared to the Bishop to be a suitable model. The noble proportions of the nave are a faithful copy from this church. In general style we may trace Bishop Medley's love of Exeter Cathedral, and the "Decorated" period of Gothic architecture. The first sod for the foundation was turned on August 28, 1845, and the work so far progressed as to be ready for the laying of the foundation stone on October 15 of the same year. The ceremony was performed by Sir William Colebrooke, Lieutenant-Governor of the Province, in the presence of nearly three thousand people. -
