Observations on an Anonymous pamphlet, by Francis Cunningham 52265
  [Subtitle: which has been distributed in Lowestoft, and its
 Neighbourhood]
  [Link: http://www.gutenberg.org/5/2/2/6/52265 ]
  [Files: 52265-0.txt; 52265-h.htm]



For those wishing to know: a 1817 response to a pamphlet written by Rev. 
Richard Lockwood, vicar of Lowestoft, on why churchmen should not join the 
Bible Society (eText 52042).  Francis Cunningham, who was a major leader 
in the Bible Society, and rector of Pakefield, the next parish to 
Lowestoft, rebutts Rev. Lockwood's points and probably didn't realise that 
it was his fellow minister whose pamphlet he was attacking.  Rev. Lockwood 
knew it was Francis Cunningham who was advocating the Bible Society, hence 
his original pamphlet.


All the best,
David,

A Record of St. Cybi's Church, Holyhead, by Arthur Penrhyn Stanley   52261
  [Subtitle: and the Sermon preached after its Restoration, 1879]
  [Link: http://www.gutenberg.org/5/2/2/6/52261 ]
  [Files: 52261-0.txt; 52261-h.htm]



For those wishing to know: a bit of a mystery pamphlet: the sermon part 
was definately Arthur Penrhyn Stanley, the Dean of Westminster, but the 
pamphlet itself and it's brief history of the church is probably 1897 so 
perhaps they wanted a pamphlet to mark the improvements of 1897 and also 
Queen Victoria's Jubilee and an short history plus pictures wasn't long 
enough, so they added Stanley's sermon.


All the best,
David,

The Visitor’s Hand-Book for Holyhead, by Thomas Jackson  52260

  [Files: 52260-0.txt; 52260-h.htm]




For those wishing to know: Thomas Jackson was an Englishman who worked a 
"Town Missionary" to Holyhead in North Wales at a time when major 
developments were taking place.  Often asked for information about the 
town, which was trying to position itself as a tourist attraction, he 
decided to write the first guide book.  Much of what he described is still 
there and even today Holyhead does trade on those developments when it 
comes to tourism.
