England and the Holy See Synopsis

Excerpt from England and the Holy See: An Essay Towards Reunion

And so once more in regard to the name of Viscount Halifax which occurs in more than one place and in more than one connection, all that I know of his lord ship's convictions and principles has already appeared in print under his own name and therefore is known also to others.

My thoughts have been running upon the subject of Reunion for some thirteen years; and I have made some attempt to analyse what I think may be described as the chronic difficulty of the Anglican Church; until at the last I feel constrained to speak.

There is, too, at the present moment, a special reason for putting on record any thoughts I may have been allowed to have and the results of any work I may have been allowed to do in this cause.

It seems only just now to be dawning upon some minds that a society whose members are suffered to say anything, or do anything that they will is scarcely likely to attract to itself any one in particular.
