Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Church Plate in the Archdeaconry of Worcester: Being an Inventory and Notice Ofthe Sacred Vessels in Use in the Different Churches, With an Explanatory Introduction Before commencing an account of the Church plate in the Archdeaconry of Worcester, I may be allowed to mention the incident by which my attention was first directed to the subject. In the summer of 1881, soon after my appointment to the office which I have the honour to hold, I paid a visit to a distant Deanery. Among other parishes then visited was a Church lying in a deep, secluded valley, and entirely surrounded by woods, it was the most perfect ideal of rural retirement I had then, or have since, seen. I found the Rector, a gentleman of the old school, waiting for me at the entrance of the porch, behind him were the two Churchwardens, behind them the parish clerk. The Rector received me with the greatest courtesy, and took me into the Church and pointed out the Church plate, laid out on the Communion table ready for my inspection. From this incident I took the hint, which I have ever since carried out, of inspecting the Communion plate in the different Churches which I have visited.
