Bristol Mayor Skips Redcliffe Whitsun Service
Bristol mayor Christopher James Thomas, a Unitarian, refused to attend St Mary Redcliffe when the Athanasian Creed would be read, breaking a 200-year Whitsun procession custom. The Pall Mall Gazette notes Conservative councilors also abstained from attendance due to scruples. The Irish Courcy Synop closed its session after thirty-one days with ongoing revision debate.
