Is the Vicar of Brompton a Tractarian?, by Arthur Ellis                  49113

For those wishing to know: Arthur Ellis was a parishioner in Brompton, 
England, around 1855 when Dr. William J. Irons was vicar of Holy Trinity, 
Brompton.  Whilst Irons denied being a Tractarian, he was most certainly 
heavily influenced by the Tractarian movement and personal friends with 
some of the movement's leaders.  Ellis wished to expose this and published 
this short tract.

I'd like to stress that the current Vicar of Holy Trinity, Brompton, is a 
very well-known man in English church circles and he's certainly NOT a 
Tractarian - the book being 160 years out of date!

All the best,
David,
Windy but warm England
