In den WarenkorbThe first letter 4pp., 12mo, with cross writing on frist page, and the second 3pp., 12mo. Both bifoliums. The second letter with its envelope, with penny red and postmarks, addressed by Dickson to 'Travers Twiss Esq D. C. L. | No. 19 Park Lane | London'. Both items in good condition, lightly aged and worn. The first letter conce…rns Dr Edward Thompson, Vicar of Kington, who has been complained about by his curate 'Mr. Clelan', resulting in a report in a newspaper. Dickson writes: 'Kington, you may remember, rejoices in the notorious Dr. Thompson for its Incumbent, through an ill-fated exchange to whch., in my ignorance on my first coming to the See, I consented. The present Curate, however, Mr. Clelan is a very respectable man, and I consider myself fortunate in having a man there, who appears to do his duty in the Parish & to be acceptable to the people. What the particular occurrence is on whch the difficulty about which he consults occurred, I am not aware, not habing seen the Hereford newspaper containing the Report or reference to it.' He continues discussing the matter, with reference to 'Mr. Parry [.] who busies himself much for the good of Kington & has establish [sic] a library for the inhabitants & compiled a memoir of the place.' The second letter begins: 'I am informed through a letter of Mr. Dunning addressed to Mr. Evans, that Mr. Reed has written to the ABp. [Archbishop] complaining, that the requirement of the Act respecting the notice to be given to the Ch. Warden of the Parish & Registrar of the as to the removing of the revocation of the License both from the Parish Registry & the Diocesan has not been complied with.' He gives more details and asks for Twiss's 'opinion as to this point', commenting: 'In this case it does seem a hardship to be obliged to stultify oneself by so formally condemning one's previous act.' A postscript refers to 'a report at Leominster that Mr. Reed has had the influence of a lady of the name of Parnell a connexion of the AB.p, in his favour - & that this Lady supports the man with supplies of money. Probably she has been a patient of his in London at some time.'.
