Excerpt from The Lewes Riot, Its Causes and Its Consequences: A Letter to the Lord Bishop of Chichester
It was in the Autumn of 1854 that I was informed by a friend of our late Sister's that she was in great distress of mind, and was exceedingly anxious to obtain the assistance of some priest; and that, from having read some of my books, she wished, if it were possible, to see me. I thus heard a part, but only a part, of her troubles; but enough to convince me that her mind, if she were left to herself, might be unequal to the wear and tear of continual. Suffering; and that, if the support to which she had a right were denied her in the English, she might probably seek it in the Roman, Church.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book recounts the true story of a dispute between the author and a clergyman, Mr. Scobell, over the care and treatment of Mr. Scobell's daughter, Emily. The author, a priest in the Church of England, was consulted by Emily in confidence regarding her unhappiness at home. After several meetings, in which Emily expressed her desire to join a religious community, the author advised her to seek her father's permission. When Mr. Scobell refused, the author reluctantly remained in contact with Emily. The author arranged for Emily to stay at a Sisterhood in East Grinsted, where she later died. Mr. Scobell accused the author of wrongdoing and sought to involve the Bishop. The author defended his actions, arguing that he had acted in Emily's best interests. The book explores the complexities of religious belief, parental authority, and the rights of individuals within the context of the Victorian era. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the social and ecclesiastical issues of the time and provides valuable insights into the struggles faced by women seeking to lead independent lives.
