Williams, J. (John), 1817-1899. John Williams papers, 1843-1880.

Title: John Williams papers, 1843-1880.

These papers consist chiefly of intimate and wide-ranging correspondence with Bishop William Rollinson Whittingham. Only four items date before 1851, when Williams became Bishop Coadjutor of Connecticut. They praise Whittingham's sermon on the priesthood of 1843, which caused controversy in the Diocese of Maryland, and minor matters. Papers of Williams's episcopate include much material on affairs of the Diocese of Connecticut, the General Conventions, and issues confronting the Church. Much concerns relations with the Roman Catholic and Congregational Churches, and especially with the Church of England, including negotiations about Lambeth Conferences, doubts that the Church should attend the Conference of 1877, correspondence with British bishops, particularly the Bishops of Winchester and Edinburgh, questions of vesting the patriarchate in the Archbishop of Canterbury, 1874, and attitudes towards Archbishop Tait. Letters of the Reverend A. Cleveland Coxe comment on Williams's character and abilities. The Bishop's letters frequently express admiration and friendship for Whittingham, consulting him on many matters of policy and administration, such as business of the House of Bishops, efforts of the House of Clerical and Lay Deputies to reduce the authority of bishops, canons against ritual, requirements for theological studies, etc. Letters of the Civil War period support Whittingham's controversial stand for the Union in Maryland; consult him on the legality of Bishop Henry C. Lay's resignation of part of his jurisdiction, 1861; mention Bishop Thomas Atkinson's communication of 1862 as a ray of light; discuss resignation of rectors in Washington, D.C., 1862; and oppose drafting clergymen for military duty, 1865. Williams's Civil War prayers are also included. Later letters deal with expansion of the Episcopal Church in the western states, praise Bishop John B. Kerfoot, support the Freedmans' Commission, 1865-1868, and urge Whittingham to write a Pastoral Letter from the Bishops to the Episcopal Church at large, 1868. There is also material concerning the Diocese of New York, 1869; the conduct and schism of Bishop George D. Cummins, 1869-1875; Williams's controversy with Ewer, 1870; work of the Committee on Theological Studies of the House of Bishops, 1871; Williams's opposition to the Society of St. John the Evangelist (Cowley Fathers) 1871-1872; High and Low Church controversies; Williams's strenuous visitations of 1873, with ninety-seven services in ninety-one days; and affairs of the Dioceses of Illinois, Wisconsin, Fond du Lac, Kentucky, and Iowa. Substantial material concerns Williams's relations with many bishops, including Levi S. Ives, Charles C. Penick, Abram N. Littlejohn, and William C. Doane, as well as many other clergymen, among them James De Koven.

Collection of engravings, [16--]-1939.

Title: Collection of engravings, [16--]-1939.

This collection consists of engravings that Pitts Theology Library acquired over a period of several years. Most of the engravings are rather large and have, thus, also been referred to as broadsides. The engravings are nearly all of British origin, with two exceptions: a French cartoon engraving of the body of St. Mary Margaret and "Armě van de Heylige Ligue voor der Jesuiten Monarchy," which is Danish. The last item is accompanied by a draft translation of its inscription into English. The engravings consist mainly of either engraved portraits of prominent men and women or political cartoons. Among the notable persons depicted in the portraits are William Jones of Nayland, William Huntington, Henry Edward Manning, Edward Irving, Popes Pius VI and IX, Sydney Smith, Michael Solomon Alexander, William Wilberforce, Samuel Parr, Frederick Temple, William Dalrymple Maclagan, and Hannah More. The cartoons in the collection are mostly satirical in nature, and their topics include the Catholic Church, Jesuit priests, missionaries, Methodism, and particular individuals (such as W.E. Gladstone). Though the earliest engraving is from the 17th century, the majority of the pieces were created in the late 18th century through the 20th century.

Smith, B. B. (Benjamin Bosworth), 1794-1884. Benjamin Bosworth Smith papers, 1825-1882.

Title: Benjamin Bosworth Smith papers, 1825-1882.

These substantial materials relate to Smith's long career in the ministry, affairs of the Diocese of Kentucky and of the Episcopal Church in general, and official communications as Presiding Bishop. Three early letters, 1825-1828, from the Reverend Robert B. Croes, concern Smith's activities while at St. Stephen's Church, Middlebury, Vt. Papers about Smith's election as Bishop of Kentucky, 1831-1832, are followed by numerous letters by and about Smith, chiefly his intimate letters to William Rollinson Whittingham before and after Whittingham became Bishop of Maryland. Smith offers Whittingham a post in his new seminary in Kentucky, 1835; asks Whittingham to accompany him on episcopal visitations, 1842; and writes about numerous Church periodicals, publications, and doctrinal controversies. Many letters frankly describe conditions and events in the Diocese of Kentucky; Smith's troubles there; accusations against him in 1837 and 1855; the schism of Bishop George D. Cummins, his assistant bishop, in 1873-1874; and many clergy matters, such as his refusal to accept the Reverend James Briscoe in 1872 because of his ritualism. Other subjects include Smith's theological beliefs: views on baptism, the ministry, the Eucharist, confessions, and reform of the Prayer Book; High and Low Church disputes; Smith's desire for church unity on the basis of primitive church principles; his impartiality and belief the Church of the future needs less ritualism and sacramentalism (1857); relations with the Baptist, Roman Catholic, and Orthodox Churches; support for the missions to Greece and Turkey in the 1840s; the Freedmans' Commission, 1868; and many references to relations with the Church of England, including the Lambeth Conferences of 1867 and 1875-1878; attendance of English bishops at the General Convention of 1871, proposals to vest the patriarchate in the Archbishop of Canterbury and correspondence with the Archbishop, 1875-1876, the death of Bishop Wilberforce, and parliamentary proceedings affecting the Church of England, 1874. Many papers relate to business of the House of Bishops and the General Conventions, elections of many bishops with comments concerning them, criteria for giving consent to the election of bishops, organization of the Episcopal Church and proposals for the provincial system, 1869-1873, and much concerning missions. Papers of 1871-1880 relate to the missions in Cuba; others of 1871-1872 discuss the mission in Haiti, the project for sending Bishop John Payne there, and oversight of Haiti by Bishop A. Cleveland Coxe. Papers of the Mexican Commission of the House of Bishops, 1874-1876, include references to Bishop Smith's role in its affairs. In 1872 Smith urges Bishop Whittingham to attend the conference of Old Catholic Churches at Cologne and gives his views concerning those churches. Official correspondence of 1875 deals with charges against Whittingham for not disciplining a clergyman who used prayer for the dead. The same year Smith writes about African missions, stating he would vote for the Reverend Joseph Sandford Attwell, a Black man, to be bishop there or bishop for the freedmen in the U.S., giving an account of his career and qualities. Correspondence of 1878 concerns the General Convention held in Baltimore, Smith's ill health, and his approaching death. Letters from Smith after Whittingham's death praise him highly and reminisce about their long friendship and their visits with Bishop Wilberforce and William Ewart Gladstone in England in 1857.

Correspondence by and about Bishop Littlejohn, chiefly with Bishop William Rollinson Whittingham. Early papers include Littlejohn's reasons for declining a call to St. Paul's Parish, Baltimore, 1855; his work in St. Paul's Church, New Haven, Conn.; his support for the Freedmans' Commission, 1865; and election as Bishop of the newly-created Diocese of Long Island, 1863. Among many subjects are Littlejohn's veneration for Whittingham and what he learned from Whittingham; affairs of the General Theological Seminary in New York City; powers of the House of Bishops; the ordination of women as deaconesses; and many clergy matters of the Diocese of Long Island. There are also materials on relations with the Church of England, including a reply to a communication from the Bishop of Winchester, 1871, and Littlejohn's opinion of Archibald Campell Tait, Archbishop of Canterbury, 1876; relations with the Orthodox Churches; and the work of the Mexican Commission of the House of Bishops in the 1870s.
