Switzerland -- Index. -- `Now, few persons will turn over the following leaves or consult the Index without finding many deficiencies of all sorts, which would be truly inexcusable if the book pretended to be anything more that what it is,--a string of church-notes gathered by the way, during journeys necessarily very hurried, and, moreover, not undertaken with an ecclesiological object. This also must partly account for the disproportionate fulness with which sometimes comparatively unimportant places are described.' (p. [ix] f.) -- In 1839 `.while still an undergraduate founded with J. M. Neale the Cambridge Camden Society for the revival of ecclesiology. In this and other ways he did much to promote the revival of ritual that followed the Oxford Movement, though Webb himself was a strictly moderate ceremonialist and never wore the Eucharistic vestments. From 1862 till his death he held the living of St Andrew's, Wells Street, London, which became famed for its music and parochial organizations.'
