Identifier: Acc.14080
Content Description
One of several privately-distributed copies of Chadwick's unpublished essay, 1985, which investigates whether it is lawful for members of the clergy to be denied the right to use the title 'Sir' following their acceptance of a knighthood. Chadwick, himself a priest in the Anglican Church, was knighted in 1983. The essay also covers the situation in Scotland, as does the accompanying correspondence with the Very Rev. Dr. Hugh Douglas, St. Andrews.
