...Frederick Bethune Bartlett was last week consecrated a Protestant Episcopal Bishop of North Dakota, in Fargo, N. Dak.

Income from that augmented fund is to increase the salary of Henry Wise Hobson, the diocese's new bishop coadjutor whom Col. Procter and his co-religionists brought from All Saints' Church at Worcester, Mass. (TIME, May 12, 1930). Bishop Hobson presided at the children's research clinic dedication last week...
