Memorial of the bishop of Sodor and Man to his majesty's commissioners appointed to consider the state of the established church with reference to ecclesiastical duties and revenues, 1836
I feel myself called upon thus publicly to address your honourable board, as the only way open to me of recording my most solemn remonstrance and protest against that recommendation of your second report, by which provision is made for the future annexation of the present see of Sodor and Man to that of Carlisle. Since in my opinion this union of the two sees would be highly inconvenient to both, and most detrimental to the spiritual, as well as to the social interests of that people, over whom the providence of God has placed me, I should consider myself wanting to my duty, did I ever silently concede the point, or cease to press it upon the attention of the church, so long as my life offers an impediment to its accomplishment.
Although this proposition has now become prospectively the law of the land, there are two reasons, which induce me to bring it before the board at this present time.
