3 December 1853
Letter from John Lonsdale, (1788-1867) Bishop of Lichfield, declining an invitation because he is engaged to preach at the opening of a church. "As long as I hold my office, I shall do what I can in my Diocese. But many things tell me that, as it would have been well for me never to have been here now it would be well both for others and myself that I should retire." Would like to end his days as a Fellow of Eton
