For those wishing to know: an undergraduate thesis which won the Hulsean 
Essay prize at Cambridge in 1811.  By looking at Celsus' book which 
attacked early Christianity, Francis sought to show that it was early 
evidence for many of the beliefs of the Church of England.  Francis 
Cunningham, later Vicar of Lowestoft, was a key leader of the British 
Bible Society and was responsible for introducing George Borrow to it.

All the best,
