Title
Letter from the Bishop's Chaplain, C. E. Hoyle, Farnham Castle, Surrey, to John H. G. Oglander
Date
5 July 1898
Description

"Thank you for your letter. The Bishop is away from home and will be for several days too busily engaged to find much time for correspondence, but I am sure he will write as soon as he can to Mr. Richards on the subject of your letter. He will, of course, respect your wish and will not mention the names you gave. I imagine from your letter that you will not take action until the Bishop has been able to communicate with Mr. Richards."

Endorsed 6 July 1898 with J. H. G. Oglander's reply

"I certainly will defer action until reasonable time for communication has lapsed. I assure you that I have no personal hostility to Mr. Richards and that I gave the list of Seaview names because I feared the Bishop would identify me with [my brother] Mr. Glynn's feud with Richards and that I simply wished to see Church property served, the covenants of my lease kept and the congregation satisfied. I venture to say that after long years of dissatisfaction I thought the least that would satisfy them would be a seperate curate to have charge there."
