A critical piece argues that Mr. Ryle exaggerates the dependence of rural parishes on clergy and gentry while ignoring self-reliance seen in Wales. It accuses him of opposing real reform and disestablishment, mocks his “thoroughgoing reformer” claim, and likens his stance to burning down houses to roast a pig.
The text notes a remark that the book could not agree with another place or it would be vomited, urging hope that after Rome is challenged, the church may be stirred to active preaching and work as with Rev J O Ryle, in a pointed comparison.
The piece critiques patronage abuses in the Church of England, discusses a House of Lords move for a select committee on patronage simony and benefices, and analyzes responses from Dr Pusey Archdeacon Denison and churchmen toward potential parliamentary measures and church reform.
The Liberation Movement lecture at Southport Town Hall features Rev Marmaduke Miller addressing church property issues. He argues for reform in distributing clergy and funds, cites unequal parish endowments, and notes stark disparities in rural versus town livings, referencing Norfolk and London data.
