Title
Letter from Sir Robert Peel to Queen Victoria
Date
25 October 1843
Writer
Peel, Robert, Sir, 2nd Baronet
Addressee
Victoria, Queen
Description
The Bishop of Oxford declines Bishopric of Lichfield. Peel suggests Dr Cardwell, Principal of St Alban Hall, but proceeds, that an Oxford man is not suggested because while more Cambridge men have been appointed to Bishoprics, Queen Victoria's visit to Cambridge would make it more desirable. Hence stress laid on Mr Lonsdale or Dr French. Peel recommends Mr Lonsdale because of the Archbishop of Canterbury's letter.
