At a London meeting of the Liberation Society supporters the drive for disestablishment received pledges of £40,000 to £50,000 from about 650 contributors, with London delivering £4,000. Speeches urged unity across classes, warned against clerical entanglements with the state, and stressed religious equality to empower nonconformists.
The report covers several London gatherings on February 15 16 and a Thursday in Deptford as the Liberation Society expands. Woolwich at Town Hall hosted Rev. J Sinclair with a Liberation resolution. Camberwell Cottage-green Baptist Chapel heard Disestablishment good for church and nation. Deptford saw a meeting to form a branch association with Mr W Price and Mr Sinclair speaking.
Reports show Mr Heard speaking in Lynn on Feb 16, chaired by W Armes with applause as Liberation Society aims discussed. A Feb 17 meeting at Swaffham Corn Hall chaired by Peter Cowell heard praise for Heard and the Liberationists, with speakers invoking John Bright and Gladstone.
Mr Gordon delivered a lecture Monday evening in the Public Hall near Bury. The event drew local residents and attendees reported interest in the topic discussed.
