Wake had now succeeded Tenison as Archbishop ; Burnet, the great opponent of Convocation, was dead ; '^ The Committee consisted of Dr. Thomas Sherlock, Dean of Chichester, Mosse, Blisse, Friend, Cannon, Dawson, Davis, Sprat, Barrett. The Silencing of Convocation. 325 Atterbury, its strong advocate and supporter, had become a member of the Upper House ; and there is little doubt that the Representation would have re- ceived the almost unanimous assent of the Bishops. But the leaders of the Whig ...government knew that the Lower House of Convocation was not well affected towards them ; they were afraid of the unanimity of Convocation ; and even before the Re- presentation was presented to the Upper House they interposed ; Convocation was prorogued by special order of the King, and was never permitted until very recent times to meet again for the transaction of business. Out of Hoadly's case arose the Bangorian Con- troversy, which continued, for a long time after Convocation was suppressed, outside the walls of the Jerusalem Chamber.
