Doull was educated at Merchiston Castle School [2] and Oriel College, Oxford,[3] and ordained after a period of study at Ripon College Cuddesdon[4] in 1896,[5] He began his career with curacies at Leeds Parish Church and the Church of the Advent, Montreal,[6] of which he was later Rector. From 1910 to 1914 he was Dean of Columbia at Christ Church Cathedral, Victoria until his elevation to the Episcopate as the inaugural Bishop of Kootenay. He resigned his See in 1933 to become Archdeacon of Sheffield, but illness forced a return to British Columbia where he died on 15 February 1937.[7]
