...bulwark of low churchmen in the Episcopal and Anglican churches is the Evangelical Education Society. Last week there arrived in Manhattan a great Anglican evangelical, Rt. Rev. Joseph Wellington Hunkin, 50, Lord Bishop of Truro, scheduled to be chief speaker at the society's 75th anniversary meeting in Philadelphia this week. An able pulpit orator, Dr. Hunkin will spend a month in the U.S., preach in Episcopal churches and seminaries in Detroit, Boston, Washington, Richmond...

James Matthew Maxon, Episcopal bishop of Tennessee, sat up in the sickbed where he had lain for 18 days ailing of influenza, and for the first time learned some-thing that all the rest of his diocese knew.

...Another British bishop believed by his flock to be blaming himself into something like nervous prostration over Windsor last week, was the Rt. Rev. A. W. Blunt, Bishop of Bradford, England. It was he who preached the first Anglican sermon critical of King Edward VIII. This British newsorgans used as their excuse for abandoning their conspiracy of silence about Mrs. Simpson (TIME, Dec. 14, 1936, et seq.). According to friends of Dr. Blunt last week "his nerves have been badly shaken"; he recently took to his bed when scheduled to be presented to King George & Queen Elizabeth; and this week...
