23 letters to William Lloyd, bishop of Norwich, various places, 1691-1704.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/702177401

Manuscript, in a single hand, of a collection of 23 letters from Thomas Ken to William Lloyd between 1691 and 1704. The letters discuss religious affairs and events, including Ken's approval of John Kettlewell's book; his belief that "stricter measures" would be fatal to the church; and his happiness that George Hooper has taken over his see and his certainty that Hooper will rescue the diocese from apostasy. He also mentions the violent storm in 1703 which killed Richard Kidder and his family by blowing down their house; discusses the state of his health; and disapproves of one "Mr Jones" as governor to a young gentleman.
