About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos or missing text. Not indexed. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. 1864. Not illustrated.

Many and earnest are the inquiries made as to the means of reaching masses of our people in the scattered hamlets and villages of our counties, and the close courts of our towns, and many and various are the remedies suggested and employed for this purpose. While I would speak of these efforts with all reverence and sympathy, and while I would entirely reject the idea of a universal panacea, may I venture to say a word for school chapels. The pew system, combined with many other fatal causes, has done a deadly work amongst us; and wherever the poor people will go, at all events in many parts they will not go to church; they are glad to welcome a parson at their own homes, they like to be visited, to be read to, to be prayed with, but they will not go to church. There are, also, numberless parishes in which there are large clumps of population situated at such a distance from the parish church, that except on very special occasions the people never go near it. To build churches in all places is impossible; you want a double centre, both school and church, places for education, and places for public worship, where even the poorest can come, and come with ease. Such centres are often presented by school chapels. In one of my parishes, a great straggling agricultural one of some seven miles in breadth, we had in one extreme part a large hamlet inhabited entirely by poor. While in the rest of the parish all seemed to go on well, this place, accessible only by bye-lanes, and situated two miles and a-half from the village, seemed a perfect plague-spot. Its population furnished the gaol with inmates and the workhouse with bastards to a terrible extent; no decent person cared to go through it at any time, and many trembled at the thought ...
