Description (What the record is about)
-
W. Butler at Cuddesden Vicarage, Wheatley (0.) to addressee unknown: Chiefly re. information on clergymen willing to work in Africa - "The head of the "Brotherhood of the Holy Trinity" is Bramley of Magdalen. I suppose he is now at Horsepath (0.) King and I do not know of any member of the Brotherhood to be named to the bishop of London for work in Zanziba.
But we think that probably the Rev. Edward Sankey, curate of Calne Wilts., might like such work for a year or so at least and might be well qualified for it. He does not belong to the Brotherhood but is a Cuddesden man, has been at Calne for a few years (four I think) and singularly enough has been seriously considering the question of taking work in Africa... no close home times, sufficiency of private means and good bodily health. I believe him to be really devoted to the ministerial work from the highest motives. There is a manliness about him which would impress anyone. He is an Oriel man, of a Kentish family..."
