Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Second Letter to the Most Rev. Archbishop Manning, Etc;, Etc My Lord Archbishop, No prisoner ever received a free pardon more thankfully than I received your Grace´s communication of the 7th of September last, which released me from silence. This is all that I shall say of it at present. For eight weary months - for the whole year previous - I had been running the ecclesiastical gauntlet, driven from pillar to post and from post to pillar again, in a way that I will abstain from characterising till I have first described it, at all events, and by that time most educated persons, I should imagine, who have followed me, will have characterised it for themselves, or be better able to appreciate what I may then say of it. At present I confine myself to a plain narrative of facts, commenting upon them as I proceed, only to elucidate their character or their force, drawing inferences from them subsequently. To state them, I must, I fear, draw largely from the various communications - correspondence principally - that have passed between us on the subject; but I do so without hesitation, as I never approached your Grace from the first but in your official capacity, and it is to your official acts exclusively that I shall invite the attention of the outside world. Your personal character is, and always has been, above my criticism; for your official acts I make the system in which you bear office alone responsible.
