saying that "Not a Samaritan that I can hear of has murmured - [Greek for] not a grunt. Your paper has done nothing but good unmixed - unshadowed. A few days ago a Quaker gave me £10 for the Cathedral, because he had happened to come in to the Conference that afternoon, and 'was so much impressed by the tone of the Conference towards Non-Conformists' ", Benson feels "anxious to know that you felt yourself 'treated not as a swell' as your first letter said, but 'as a realswell' after the heart of your friend the Costermonger", he offers his "most grateful cordial thanks for kindness shown to this remote House and for good sown in it. - Domestically too for leaving behind you such a spirit of cheerful determination to 'go on' by the plain Church of England way", 4 sides 8vo., Truro, Cornwall, 17th November Benson revitalised the idea of a Cathedral in the life of a diocese, drawing on his knowledge of medieval practice at Lincoln, and founded the Theological College at Truro.
