Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old-Time Parson This book makes no pretension to be complete and regular history of the clerical office. Many volumes would be needed to record the lives, manners, and customs of the clergy. The writer has tried to paint a portrait of the parson at various stages of his career, to catch a glimpse of the Saxon and mediaeeval cleric, to see the bishop in his palace, to show what kind of cleric ruled in Elizabethan and later times, to picture him in his pulpit and among his flock, in his sufferings and in his successes, and to discover what other men have written about him. It is a companion portrait to that of The Parish Clerk, who won much favour last year in the eyes of many readers; and if the latter had his picture painted, it is only fair that the occupant of the higher tier of the "three-decker" should share his honour. We venture to hope that the admirers of the clerk will consent to raise their eyes to the parson, who always needs the sympathy and friendship of his fellows, and who by his good deeds, his patience under disappointment, his services to Church and State and to "the few sheep in the wilderness" over whom he exercises his pastoral care, is perhaps not unworthy of their affection and regard.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INCONTESTABLY Mr. Ditchfield has the pen of a ready and rapid writer. We have hardly done smiling over the eccentricities of the Parish Clerk before he invites us to join in a hearty laugh over the ways of his master. We shall not be doing him an injustice if we suggest that the object he proposes for himself is to amuse his readers rather than instruct them. Although the present volume appears as one of "The Antiquary's Books," the author aims at the role of popular anecdotist much more than that of serious antiquary. He has certainly been successful in bringing together a large number of gossiping stories, chiefly modern, about the clergy, especially the Bishops (whom Mr. Ditchfield includes among the Parsons). Many of the stories, it must be admitted, are "chestnuts." We have here that venerable jest about the curate's egg which the Pan-Anglican Congress this summer unanimously refused to listen to, when a transatlantic divine attempted to retell it. We find also Temple's unsympathizing response about somebody's aunt, and other familiar stories which are not always accurately told. We decline, therefore, to regard this entertaining volume a a bona fide attempt to write the history of the clergy from an antiquarian point of view. In this respect it falls short even of J. C. Jeaffreson's 'Book about the Clergy," which had some vogue thirty years ago. Mr. Ditchfield's definition of "Old-Time" must be rather peculiar, as he makes it come down to the end of the nineteenth century. Bishops Wilberforce, Stubbs, Temple, and Creighton, who figure largely in his pages, are hardly Old-Time Parsons.
