[edit] Summary

from The Daily Post Newspaper (Birmingham) 26th November 1880, Fr.Richard Enraght entering Warwick Prison in chains, handing a bag entitled, "Paraphernalia of Ritualism" to his curate Revd Warwick Elwin.

The Daily Post Newspaper article of November 22nd 1880 is attached to the wall behind Fr Enraght states:-

What is the Use ?.

The prosecutions must prove futile, because the doctrines aimed at may be legally taught by ministers of the Church of England. It has been decided that baptismal regeneration may be lawfully taught; it has also been decided that a real presence in the Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper may also be lawfully taught. As to the assertion of a priesthood, the Prayer Book is full of it; and the Low Churchmen are conscious of the difficulty of explaining it away. If then, the doctrine remains and must remain --- for no one seriously proposes to expunge it by legal process --- of what use is it to go on prosecuting and imprisoning clergymen who insist upon the use of symbols as a means of enforcing a doctrine which they may preach without legal hindrance, from one end of the year to the other?
