Evidence: | The Rev W. F. Hook to John Wilson Croker, 8 April 1839:
'Mr. Murray forwarded to me a copy of the "Quarterly Review" a few days ago, and he did so, I presume, by your desire, for I conclude that we are indebted to you for the admirable article on the Oxford Divines. For that article it is impossible to express my thanks in language sufficiently strong. To you we owe entirely the exorcism of that evil spirit of Reform which a few years ago threatened the destruction of all that was sacred in the English Church [discusses issue of Tractarianism further] [...] May I request you to thank Mr. Murray for sending me the Review. I have ordered many copies that I may lend them.' |
