Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Follow the money. This paper depends heavily on interpreting donations and subscriptions to voluntary societies to turn a hitherto obscure clergyman into a dynamic, multi-faceted individual. To push beyond the bare précis of such a man’s career is usually next to impossible. Searches in Google Books, a little appreciated treasure-trove of evidence, can change that. The host of details it uncovered for Maurice Smelt opens vistas into his character, interests and activities: a Tory warrior in defence of the church by law established; a rector of broad Protestant identity who happily crossed the divide between church and chapel; an Evangelical who used his considerable personal wealth to further his zeal for missionary work (especially with Jews and the Irish); an Anglican parson who broke the ancient neighbourly accommodation with the large Roman Catholic community in his parish to battle against popery; an inveterate raiser of parliamentary petitions to further his causes. | |||
