Evidence: | Carter describes exam he was forced to undertake to be admitted to the school which was supported by a congregation of Protestant Dissenters: 'it was required of the applicants for admission that they should be able to read in the New Testament to the satisfaction of the managing committee...I obeyed this dread mandate with much trepidation, but was enabled to do it so as to escape censure.' |
