Please to direct " George Long, No. 1 King St. , Soho, Liverpool. In the meantime Gilmer, on the advice of Dr. Parr, had written on the subject of the classical professorship to Samuel Butler (1774-1839), the well-known head master of Shrews- bury school. Dr. Butler was one of the leading English edu- cators, and a great friend of Dr. Parr's, whose funeral sermon he preached. After a brilliant career at Cambridge, where he was elected Craven scholar over Coleridge, he had taken charge of the Sh...rewsbury school in 1798, and made it one of the best in the country. He was a noted classical scholar, and was at this very time finishing his edition of Aeschylus. He was subsequently made Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry. Dr. Butler answered Gilmer on the 26th of August, and recommended in high terms a clergyman whose name he did not give. He also assured Gilmer that he would be glad to show him the school * and give him further information, adding that although he could not offer him a bed, he should be happy to see him at breakfast, dinner, and supper.
