For those wishing to know: Around 1850 Dr. Vaughan headmaster of Harrow 
School England published a pamphlet on why he wouldn't object to the Post 
Office's plan to change Sunday working practises in London to reduce the 
number of it's staff in England who had to work on Sunday.  Pears, of Bath 
Grammar School, thought this was treachery to Sunday observance and the 
campaign he was involved in.  This pamhplet sets forth what Pears thought.

All the best,
David
