A 19th Century Speech Sparks Debate On Labour And Church
Sir John Coleridge’s Exeter address attacks aristocratic pensions and support for the labourer, criticizes the Duke of Marlborough, and denounces Ritualist clergy. It praises Canon Girdlestone, notes Bedford’s new duke generosity, and questions official residences and naval-era policies while praising Matthew Arnold's Great Prophecy of Israel's Restoration.
