St. Thomas's - HJR has enjoyed reading WW's pamphlet 'as it is it contains wisdom most rare and instruction most precious for us at all times' ['Remarks on Some Parts of Mr Thirlwall's two Letters on the Admission of Dissenters to Academical Degrees', 1834]. 'The more I think of Thirlwall's pamphlet [Connop Thirlwall, 'A Letter to the Rev. Thomas Turton, on the Admission of Dissenters to Academical Degrees', 1834] the more mischievous in every way do I think it. The theory is bad as you have shown - the feeling is bad, the tone is bad and the arguments resorted to (as in the Master's Sermon) unfair and not worthy of a gentleman'.
