ABERDARE NOTES.
ABERDARE NOTES. [By ARGusl. Balls are quite the rage at Aberdare this winter. Calisthenics are exceeding popular at the Queen of the Hills." There have already been two smart balls, and we are promised three equally smart ones ere the season con- cludes. I heard a rather singular story t'other day which has the merit of being true. It appears that a few years ago there lived at Capcoch a cabinet-maker, named John Williams. One day lie was ordered to make a coffin for a man who had died in the neighbourhood. The coffin was duly made, but when John took it to the house where the corpse lay the relatives of the deceased would not have it. So John took it home again. The coffin was kept in his house until his death, which occurred 20 years later, and lie was burted in it. I understand that the Churchpeople of Aber- dare will be favoured with the presence of the Rev. Father Gardner, of the Mission of St John the Evangelist, Cowley, on Good Friday, when the rev. gentleman will deliver an address in the three hours' service." It is interesting to note that the founder of this society—the Rev. Father Benson—used to annually visit Aberdare some years ago. An Aberdare Nonconformist minister was observed going down Gadlys-road on a cycle t'other afternoon, and two bystanders were heard to remark in Welsh Edrych ar y pregethwr ar gefn bicycle "(look a preacher on a bicycle). But why cannot a preacher ride a bicycle like any other mortal heing l The prejudice of some people is most pitiable. This is a funny world The other day I noticed a Nonconformist minister going down a street at Aberdare. He met one of his flock on the road. The latter carelessly nodded to him and said "Sut yr ydych chwi heddyw (how are you to-day !). A few minutes later a curate of the Church of England came along. But the man referred to did not nod to him and say, Sut yr ydych chwi heddyw:" Oh no, he took his hat off and said, Good nornillg sir Comment is superfluous.
ABERDARE URBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL…
ABERDARE URBAN DISTRICT COUNCIL ELECTIONS. Of the four wards in Aberdare a contest will only take place in No. 2, where there are two candidates nominated, viz., Mr. Griffith George, J.P., and Mr. D.Tudor Williams. Mr. George is the retiring member, and is the nominee of the Liberal and Labour Association. Meetings are being held in all parts of the ward, and by the end of the week everything will be in full swing. In No. 1 Ward the retiring member, Mr. Owen Harris, grocer, was the only one nominated, and he is, therefore, declared elected. Three candidates had been no ninated for No. 3, or Town Ward, viz., Mr. J. W. Evans, solicitor Mr. Thomas Thomas, Graig House and Mr. Lewis Noah Williams, lamp manufacturer. Mr. Evans and Mr. Thomas have withdrawn, and Mr. Williams has been declared elected. He is at present the High Constable of the town. No one w;\s nominated to oppose Mr. John Howell, Aberaman, the retiring member in No. 4 Ward and he will, therefore, retain his seat on the Council for another three years. A meeting of Mr. Tudor Williams' supporters was held on Tuesday evening at the Election-rooms in Whitcombe-street. There was a large number pre- sent. The chair was occupied by Mr. E. Shaw, Glan-road, who, after a few introductory remarks, called upon the candidate.—Mr. Tudor VVilliams at the outset dealt with the charges which appear in this week's Tarinn. Having replied to them, he summed them up as a tissue of falsehoods. With reference to the taxation of royalties which his opponent made a great deal of, he said it was an old thing so far as he was concerned. He had been in favour of it for many years, and about 12 months ago he voted in favour of the resolution at the Board of Guardians. He thought it was a shame that in a town like Aberdare, having such a large population, there was not a free library. If he was returned he would do his utmost to have onr,and that as soon as possible. He had been charged that he was not a Lilieral as he had stated in his election address. He would very easily satisfy them upon that. Last election he sup- ported Mr. Pritchard Morgan, and he at the present time held a trophy from that gentleman in recogni- tion of the services rendered by him. In conclusion, he asked them to remember him on the election day. -The committee brought in their canvassing books with favourable results. -An unanimous vote of con- fidence was passed in Mr. Tudor Wuliams.—Mr. J. D. riavies, suttvf pv.j meetinir hrtanv. An enthusiastic meeting in support of Mr. G. George's candidature was held on Monday night last, at Salem Vestry, Robertstovvn. The chair was taken by Rev. J. D. Rees.—Mr. G. George, who was well received, said the promises he had made to them 12 months ago he had endeavoured to fulfil He thought that during the last 12 months No. 2 Ward had had their proportion of the rates. His opponent, Mr. Williams, stated in his address that he was a Liberal. He had known Mr. Williams for a, good number of years, and had never known him to be a Liberal.—Mr. Walker having addressed the meet- ing, urging those present to support Mr. George, a unanimous vote of confidence was carried, and the meeting terminated.

THE COLLIERY STOPPAGE AT ABERDARE. We learn from inquiries made on Saturday that the reconstruction of the Aberdare-Merthyr Colliery Company, the proprietors of the Nant- melyn and Hirwnin Collieries at Aberdare, which have been idle for the past 13 weeks, is not yet completed. There are, it appears, so many in- terests involved that there must iiecess-trily elapse some time before the whole matter is completed.

COSCERT.-The last of a series of coneert-i that have been held during the winter months at Mountain Ash English Methodist Church (Dyffryn-strcet) was held last week, and proved very successful. The Rev. D. J. Watts Lewis, pastor, presided. The programme was as follows :-Planofe,rte solo, Master J. Webbe duet, Misses Webbe solo, My Heart's lieloved," Mrs. J. E. Thomas solo, Sailor Boy's Dream," Rev. D. J. Watts Lewis violin solo, Mr. Willie Davies solo. Miss Kendry solo, Anchored," Mr. Morgan Thomas solo, Arm, Arm ye Brave," Mr. D. Williams solo, Over the Deep," Mr. Morgan Thomas. The second part of the programme was devoted to the performance of a humorous dialogue, entitled Mr. and Mrs. Dove." The various parts were well sustained by Mrs. J. E. Thomas, Miss Minnie Williams, Miss S. J. Griffith-, MiFs Clara Thomas, Mr. H. Herbert, and Mr. W. Davies. A hearty vote of thanks was accorded the singers, per- formers, accompanists, and chairman for their services. The duties of accompanists were satis- i, factorily carried out by Miss Herbert, organist of the church, and Master Webber. OBITUARY.—It is with deep regret we recoid the premature death of Mr. Edward Thomas, sculptor, Pyle Villa, which sad event took place at his resi ience on Thursday morning last, after only a week's illness. The deceased, who was 22 years of age, con- tracted a cold, which developed into inflammation of the lungs, death ensuing. He was of an amiable and social disposition, and very greatly esteemed, as was evidenced by the very large con- course of friends who attended the funeral. He belonged to an old Mountain Ash family, his father, Mr. David Thomas, being engineer at Deep Duffryn Colliery, and his uncle, Mr. Edward Thomas, being an engineer at the Penrhiwceiber Colliery. He was a grandson of the late Mr. David Thomas, for mai.y years pitman of Navigation Colliery, who was acci- dentally killed by falling down that pit. The funeral took place on Monday afternoon at St. Margaiets Church, where the first part of the burial service took place. At the church the Rev. D. T. R. James, B.A., curate, read the Psalm. The lesson taken from I Corinthians xv. was read by the vicar, the Rev. B. Lloyd, B.D., rural dean, after which the beautiful hymn, "For ever with the Lord," was sung by the congregation, accompanied by the organ. As the sad cortege left the church, Mr. H. W. Long, organist, very impres- sively played the Dead March" in Saul. At the grave the vicar read the concluding portion of the burial service, and then gave out that grand Welsh hymn, "Beth sydd imi yn y byd," which was sung to the tune of A'»erystwyth." The mourners were Mr. and Mrs. David Thomas (father and mother); brothers, David, William Henry, John, Alfred, Arthur Ivor, Edwin Mrs. David Thomas, Miskin Grandmother): Mr. and Mrs. E. Thomas. Glvn Cottage, Penrhiwceiber (uncle and aunt); Mr. John Thomas, Commercial-street (uncle); Mr. and Mrs. D.

T S.C., Cymmer (cousins) Mr. Jacob Davies, Miskin (cousin). Among the general public were the vicar, the Rev. B. Lloyd, B.D., rural dean Rev. D. 1. R. James, B.A.; Rev. M. D. Jones (C.M.); Rev. T. T. Hughes (B); Rev. W. Thomas (B); Mr. Hughes, lay reader; Mr. W. Bevan, Allen-street, and most of the tradesmen, colliery officials, and others. Some lieautiful wreaths were sent from the following :— Friends in Commercial-street Miss Dunn, Harp Hotel Mr. W. B. George, The Grove Mr. J. Evans, Darren Villa; Mrs. Leyshon and Sons, Miskin Inn Mrs. Watkins, Butcher's Arms; Miss Francis and Miss Scourfield, Oakfield Villa Mr and Mrs. B.

NUISANCE PROSECUTION AT MOUNTAIN…
NUISANCE PROSECUTION AT MOUNTAIN ASH. At the Mountain Ash Police-court on Wednesday— before Mr. W. M. North-Stephen Roberts, Ivor James Johns, Owen Thomas, John Jordan, William Pugsley, Benjamin Thomas, William Henry Thomas, David Parker, all of Aberdare, and John Hughes, of Aberdare Junction, were summoned by the Mountain Ash Urban District Council for not obeying the order of the Council to abate a nuisance on their property at North-street, Aberdare Junction, by closing a pit trench and a hole in Boundary Wall, whereby the sewage from their ten houses flows upon the adjoining land. Mr. Little, who is chairman of the Mountain Ash District Council, retired from the bench. Mr. W. Kenshole, solicitor, prosecuted on behalf of the Urban District Council, and Mr. J. W. Evans and Mr. J. D. Thomas, solicitors, Aberdare, for defendants. —Mr. Robert Johns, inspector of nuisances, gave evidence and WJ*S cross-examined by Mr. J. W. Evans and Mr. J. I). Thomas.—Mr. J. W. Evans said hi" (tlinnta had onivmlied with the orders of the their cesspool, and had spent considerable sums therefor, and were now attending to the last order of the Council. Mr. Thomas and himself hud written to the Mountain Ash Council desiring them to connect their client-?' houses with the main carrier which passes near their houses. The Mountain Ash Council said they could not do it, and referred them to the Aberdare Council. That Council said it was the business of the Mountain Ash Council. Failing to get attention to the matter, he wrote to the Local Government Board laying the matter before them, and when the Mountain Ash Council knew that they prosecuted the defendants out of spite.—The Stipendiary in giving his decision said that until the houses are connected with the sewage carrier it was the place of the owners to keep their cesspools clean and from over-flowing. He would make the order asked for with costs.—At the conclusion of the case Mr. W. Little said that as Mr. J. W. Evans referred to him and to the Moun- tain Ash District Council, he was prepared to have gone into the witness-box if Mr. Evans had desired, and would have rebutted many of his statements referring to him and to the Mountain Ash District Council. The Council would be glad if they or others would write again and again to the Local Government Board if thereby the matter would be facilitated.—Mr. Evans: My authority is the clerk to the Aberdare District Council.

NELSON.-\
NELSON. CHASING REYNARD.—The inhabitants of Nelson were roused to an unusual pitch of excitement on Tuesday last, the Cefn Forest Hounds and their attendant huntsmen being the cause of the tumult. A large party of horsemen met at the Holly Bush Inn in the morning. After partaking of a capital lunch, provided by Mr. E. Miles, Reynard was let loose in a field near by. He gave a splendid run to the dogs, passing through the streets of Nelson and making for Ystrad Mynach, followed by crowds of young and old men. He was at last brought to earth near the Gwerra Farm, Maesycwinrner, after a run of about four and a half hours in drenching rain. The following gentlemen were present: — Messrs. D. Pritchard, master of foxhounds W. Thomas, Pen- rhiw E. Watkins, Deri; J. H. Jenkins, Treharris J. Herbert, Newbridge; W. Miles, Berthlwyd E. Lewis, Tynewydd J. Edwards, Greenhill; D.

WATF.II SUPPLY.—The following numerously-signed petition was sent to the District Council:—" We, the undersigned, being occupiers of houses in that part of Llanbradach situated in the Eglwysilan parish appeal to take the necessary steps to procure a proper supply of water for d) mkiug purposes. We take the liberty of approaching you at the present time owing to the prevalence of small-pox and other epidemics. The water supply is now contaminated by tramps and children, the former of which are likely to carry the epidemics from affected districts. Also the water flowing as it does over woody ground contains such a large quantity of organic matter as to be detrimental to the health of the community. It is aljsolutely necessary that we should keep our drains flushed and in good order. At the present time we have not sufficient supply to do so. The owners of the land from which we obtain our water at present threaten to cut off our supply at an early date. In view of the above facts, we hope that you will see the urgency of our request, and for the sake of public health that you will take the necessary steps to procure the required supply." CAERPHILLY.

Jones, late headmistrees of the Caerphilly Infants' School, was presented with a handsome black marble timepiece. The presentation was made by Mr. Thomas Thomas, clerk to the School Board, who said he had known Miss Jones from childhood. No one knew better than he her value as a teacher, and no one was more sorry than he that she had severed her connection with the Board. The inscription was as follows: "Presented to Miss E. A. Jones on resigning the charge of the Caerphilly Infant Board School after a long and successful service, with the best wishes of her friends." SNAP-SHOTS FROM THE LEANING TOvVER. NEW BROOM SWEEPS CLEAN.—Great satisfaction is expressed with regard to the new School Board rate. A reduction of 8d. is a most welcome drop. The Board have done well. One thing more is needed a new and firm chairman.. WATHK FAMtXK.—-Untesa something IS .1nn.. water supply, -Various schemes have been dts- cussed by the Council, but we are no nearer to a solution of the problem to-day than we were a twelvemonth ago. Our hope (forlorn hope, we had almost said) now is, that the newly-formed Water Committee will set to work and speedily find a way out of the difficulty WE LIVE AND LEARN.—We have always been under the impression, Mr. Editor, that Blue Books contained reliable data to go by in fact, we have dipped into, and made use of,their contents scores of times. W ell, sir, it seems we have been wrong all along. W hen Mr. William Davies said that a certain Senghenydditc who recently adversely criticised the School Board's doings in the past, quoted from the Blue Book," some of the members ridiculed the statements, and talked of blue and green." Oh how they enjoyed their own jokes (?) But seriously, does the chair- man think Blue Books unreliable ? We pity him if he does.

Eprs's COCOA.—GRATOTUI A eP COMFORTING. By a thorough knowledge of the natural I&ws which govern the operations of digestion and nutrition, and by a careful application of the fine properties of well-selected COCOA, Mr. Epps has provided for our breakfast and supper a delicately flavoured beverage which may save us many heavy doctors' bills. It is by the judicious-use of such articles of diet that a constitution may be gradually built up until strong enough to resist ev ?ry tendency to disease. We may escape many a fatal shaf isy keeping ourselves well fortified with pure blood and a properly nourished frame.Ci"1', Scrmce Gazette. —Made simply with boiling water or milk.

BY THE WAY.
BY THE WAY. It is intended starting a base-ball club at Merthyr this year. The next meeting of the Merthyr Council will be held on All Fools Day." Clare-street is the title of the latest built thorough- fare at Merthyr. Merthyr Vale Station is one of the prettiest on the Taff Railway. A sure cure for indigestion is to walk the mountain- ous road from Merthyr to Aberdare every morning. Mr. Pritchard Morgan is coming over to England in the Oruba. Aberdare is the only district in the county where the Infectious Diseases Act has not been adopted. The death is reported of Mr. E. Jonfes, Festiniog, the father-in-law of Mr. Beecham, of pills celebrity. Aberdare Council meetings last about an hour on an average. Merthyr Council can't finish their meetings under three hours each time. "The erstwhile capital of Wales" is the manner in which a Cardiff evening contemporaryrecently referred to Merthyr. P.C. Thomas Jones told the Merthyr magistrates on Monday that he was on good terms with every- body." We congratulate the gallant officer. One of the features of the little museum at Caedraw Schools is a human skull. Perhaps it is the first time for this skull to have been inside a school. A speaker at the Oddfellows' meeting at Merthyr on Saturday proudly asserted that he was the father of 15 children. "No, I was not making a row," said a witness at the Merthyr Police-court on Monday. I was only kicking." The pulpit of Clwydyfagwyr C.M. schoolroom is painted green. Some people would say there was an idea in the selection of colour, but we reject the in- sinuation with scorn. Quite a number of Merthyr hawkers have been fined I within the past few months for hawking goods at Aberdare without having previously paid toll for the same. I I Welsh, the language of the mountains," and which Lewis Morris assures us is as musical as Greek, is very extensively spoken at Cefn, Abernant, Hirwain, Tre- cynon, and Cwmdare. A little white dog was noticed outside Cefn Police- station the other evening barking and growling for a long time. It appears that its owner had just been confined in the cell for disorderly conduct. It appears, judging from some observations that were made at the Police-court on Monday, that the cratur wot pays the rint" is very much in evidence at Treharris. There is nothing like bacon after all. The Merthyr Cricket Club are hoping for a success- ful season. There is every probability of the club securing the old running grounds at Penydarren, which would be a most suitable place in every sense. I am very sorry that I have been speaking so long," remarked a speaker at a Merthyr meeting last week but I have Welsh blood in my veins, and once I bpgiri there is no knowing where I shall end." It was just prior to the commencement of the teachers' meeting at Caedraw on Saturday. Is it legal to sign the voting paper in letd," asked one pedagogue. "No, sign. it in blood," rejoined a scholastic wag. The recent Zangwill lecture at Merthyr was eminently successful. The balance in hand, after deducting expenses, was close upon £16. Of this amount J615 is to be sent to the Teachers' Orphan Fund. According to Stubbs' Weekly Gazette, the numher of failures in England and Wales gazetted during the week ending March 21st, was 178. The number in the corresponding week of last year was 193, showing a decrease of 15. The promoters of a ball held at a place not 100 miles from Merthyr had an amusing experience the other day. They sent to a firm for some polishing stuff, but omitted to mention that it was for the ball- room floor. In a few days a mysterious-looking package arrived at Cefn Station, addressed to the promoters of the ball, and after removing some twelve sheets of brown paper a small bottle of furniture polish was found inside (tableau). Some years ago a clergyman in Fifeshire preached along sermon from the text, "Thou are weighed in the balance and found wanting." After the congregation had listened about an hour, some began to get weary and went out others soon followed greatly to the annoyance of the minister. Another person started, whereupon the parson stopped and said, That's right, gentlemen as soon as you are weighed pass out." The rest stayed. —
TREHARRIS.!
TREHARRIS. WK are sorry to hear that Mrs. Nicholas, wife of illness. -•*« ACCIDENT.—On Thursday morning last Mr. John Miles, Glyn Bargoed-road, met with an accident to his foot at Deep Navigation, and had to be conveyed hoire. j As THE DAYS lengthen and the sun shines we have in our mind's eye outdoor games of a gentle kind where tea will be imbibed amidst the bracing air that falls, as it were. from our rugged hills. MUSICAL.—The Treharris Male Voice Party practise every Monday and Friday evening also on Sunday afternoons at the Primitive Methodist Chapel, under the leadership of Mr. T. Phillips (Alaw Wyn). RELIGIOUS.—We hear there is a probability of an English Congregational hody being formed in our midst, and that it is their intention to worship at the Board Schools after our Church friends remove to their new church. PIwi.-There was a pig case from Treharris before the Merthyr beaks on Saturday. William Williams was fined one shilling for allowing his pig to go astray. The Magistrates' Clerk said I should think that Treharris is over-run with pigs." EXTENSION OF TtME. —We understand that the time for bringing in the money for the tickets sold for Mr. Phillips' complimentary concerts hold on Febru- ary 13th and 15th will be extended until Christmas, and should that period be insufficient it is likely to be further extended for another 12 months. A WoitD oF ADVICE.—We have often noticed the reckless manner in which our little ones will cross the streets in front of vehicles, and thereby place them- selves in great danger. A little admonition adminis- tered in every home on this matter would not be out of place. I A LOCALITY in our town which is second only to the Square in importance, is that just above the Railway Station in Thomas-street, where men of light and leading halt, as it is a junction to two other streets. Here shops abound. The illuminating power emanating from a new shop has jeopardised ro some extent the idea long nursed of having a Bray's lamp fixed at this important spot. OUR LIBRARY in a room of thePublic Hall, which is neatly fitted upwith the librarian's quarters adjoining is generally admitted to be one of the best in the Principality for the varied and admirable selection of liooks and periodicals. This fact reflects great credit on the colliery workmen who finance it, the manage- ment bjing vested in a committee. Outsiders can participate in its advantages for the small sum of nine- pence per quarter. It is superintended by the inde- fatigable librarian, Mr. W. David. WORK was resumed at No. 2 Pit Deep Navigation on Monday, but at No. 1 Pit, where the cage accident occurred, it is feared there will not be a start until to-day (Thursday) or Friday. We are informed that considerable damage was done by the falling cage in the pit. The streets are thronged with a large num- ber of men and boys out of work, and it is to be hoped an early resumption will take place, as the loss of so much time will !je severely felt by numerous poor families.—See another column for a report of the accident. DEVELOPMENT.—Much interest is taken in the coming fight in the committee-rooms of the House of Commons anent the short projected line from a spot known as the Fiddler's EUJOW," on the Llancaiach Branch of the Taff Vale Railway, direct to Treharris, and then joining the Bargoed Railway a little higher up. If this Bill should be passed, a large o)>ening: for the surplus lalx>ur will result, which would benefit our town considerably. Rumours of further sinkings some distance from Treharris have long been pre- valent, and that the rumours will be ultimately con- summated no one seems to doubt. BUILDING.-At a meeting of the Quakers' Yard Junction Building Society, held at the Great Western Hotel, on Monday evening last, under the presidency of Mr. Edwards, Ystrad Rhondda, chairman of the society, the tender of Mr. Jeremiah Bowen, Windsor- place, was accepted out of 14 sent in, for the erection of 30 cottages. Operations are expected to commence in a fortnight's time, and we understand that 27 shares have already been taken np. The site is a particularly healthy one, and is close to the Great Western and Taff Vale Stations. and only 15 minutes' walk from Treharris. Seeing that all the available ground at the last-named place has been built upon, attention in the future will no doubt be directed to the "West End." The architect is Mr. J. Williams, Jorest House, and the secretary, Mr. Gomer Price, both of Quakers' Yard Junction. CARDIFF COLLEGE.—A public meeting was held at the Bankroom of the Public Hall on Thursday evening last in support of the building funds of th"s University OollMfe of South Wales and Monmouthshire, Mr. Jacob Ray, agent, in the chair. The room was crowded, several of our leading citizens being present. Mr..J. Vinamu Jones, principal of the college, was announced to be present, but he was absent owing to pressure of work. Mrs. J Vinamu Jones addressed the meeting at considerable length on the work and aims of the college, laying particular stress on the fact that. it was open to all classes, and concluded a very telling speech by expressing a hope that the meeting would assist them in making up the £ 20,000 by next July, and thereby secure the grant of J320,000 Eromised by the Government and the £ 10,000 by the •rapers' Company. Mr. J. A. Jenkins, B.A., the registrar of the college, afterwards addressed the meet- ing, as also did Councillor W. Lewis, Revs. W. Jones and W. D. Nicholas, Mr. Rees Jones, Mr. Henry Davies (mining lecturer), Mr. John Edwards, Mr. Uren, and Mr. Targett.-A motion proposed by Mr. D. Prosser and seconded- by Mr. E. Edwards, J.P., expressing the heartfelt thanks of the meeting to Lord Windsor, Lord Tredegar, Mr. Alfred Thomas, M.P., Mr. John Cory and others for their handsome donations to the building funds, was unanimously adopted. Other resolutions were also adopted favour- able to the college, one of which was the selection of a committee to bung the movement prominently before the people, and to take steps to bring the matter directly before the workmen of the district. At the close subscriptions to the amount of jE23 were announced. The usual votes of thanks concluded the proceedings.
DEATH OF ARCHDEACON DENISON.
DEATH OF ARCHDEACON DENISON. The Ven. Archdeacon Denison passed peacefully away at an early hour in the morning of March 21, at East Brent Ticarage, near Weston-super-Mare, in the presence of his wife and other members of his household. The Bishop of Bath and Wells had on the preceding evening sent the following telegram: Give the archdeacon my love and blessing. You have our deepest sympathy." The dying man, on its receipt, expressed himself well pleased with the know- ledge of having so many friends, and remarked that he could leave the world in peace with all. The late Archdeacon Denison. who was fourth son of the late Mr. John Denison, M.P. (brother of the late Viscount Ossington, Speaker of the House of Commons, 1857-72, of the Bishop of Salisbury, 1837-54, and of the late Sir William Deni- son, K.C.B., Governor of Tasmania, Sydney, and Madras), was born in 1805. According to Men of the Time," he was educated at Eton and Christ Church, Oxford, w here he graduated B.A. in 1826, taking a first-class in classical honours; in 1828 was elected Fellow of Oriel College in the same year was University prizeman, gaining the Latin Essay, and the English Essay in 1829. He was curate of Cuddesdon, Oxfordshire, from 1832 to 1838; mar- ried in 1833, Georgiana, eldest daughter of the Right Hon. J. W. Henley, M.P. for Oxen; and became vicar of Broadwindsor, Dorset, whence he Brent, Somersef, rina "Oct^nie r^iwiimicrg-cruajyUAi-cA the Bishop of Bath and Wells, who advanced him in 1851 to the Archdeaconry of Taunton. He was an active member of the London and Bristol "Church Unions," and a strong opponent of all schemes of Government education. In 1853, in consequence of a charge of unsound doctrine publicly made ngainst him by Bishop Spencer, who was at that time discharging the functions of the Bishop of Bath and Wells, the Archdeacon resigned his Examining Chaplaincy, and preached in the Cathedral at Wells three ser- mons on The Real Presence," which he published as his defence. Proceedings were taken against him on account of matter contained:in those ser- mons, in January, 1854. In 1856 the Archdeacon was sentenced to deprivation of all his preferments by judgment of a court held at Bath, and presided over by the then Archbishop of Canterbury. This sentence was set aside, upon appeal to the Court of Arches on a point of law, and the judgment of the Court of Arches was confirmed, on further appeal, by the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, February 6, 1858. The Archdeacon was editor of the Church and State Itericw, from its establishment in 1862 till August, 18G5 and, as a member of the Lower Honse of Convocation in 1851 and 1864, was Chairman of the Committees, the Reports of which issued in the condemnation of Essays and Reviews," and of Dr. Colenso's published writings. Archdeacon Denison published his autobiography under the title of Notes of my Life," 1878. After the election of 1885, the Archdeacon published in December a pamphlet, Mr. Gladstone."
