The Magdalen Man and a New Year Charity
A nameless curate recalls a New Year’s Eve encounter with a ragged Magdalen man on the Thames Embankment. The vagrant, moved by charity, refuses aid until a mysterious future act of kindness. The tale shifts to years later, when poverty and pride push the curate toward despair, only to be saved by a fellow traveler who notes parsons’ flaws but urges virtue.

Letter Opens Path to Clerical Succession in Exchester
A damaged excerpt depicts a tale of fear and hope as a husband reads a letter from Lord Exchester offering him to succeed the late vicar Me Treadwell. The note appeals to duty and humanity, framed by a New Year’s dawning and the married narrator’s emotional turmoil. The text later notes Lord Exchester as an ex-officer and Magdalen man, with a hint of family pride in the envelope bearing Exchester’s arms.
