It remains to be noticed, that, when the members of the Church within his diocese determined to erect a fitting monument to the memory of their much-esteemed Bishop, they fixed upon one which they thought worthy of his fame, and which they knew would have been of all others the most acceptable to him.
During his life he had restored, at his own cost, the beautiful cloisters of the cathedral. The chapter house, a building of exquisite architectural beauty, remained unrestored and dilapidated at his death. To restore it to its original beauty of holiness was known to have been an object on which his heart was set. It was determined that his monument should be the restoration, and £5000 was speedily subscribed for the purpose.
The monument was worthy of the man.
