Story of Purton

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. I was also fortunate in having had talks with our late Vicar, and from him received valuable notes and newspaper cuttings. My thanks are also due to Mrs. Story-maskelyne, Miss Maud Prower, Mrs. Atkinson, and Miss Walsh, and to Canon Livingstone, Canon Manley, the Rev. R. B. Harrison, Mr. Josiah Haskins, Mr. Wilding and Mr. Frank Kempster. Mr. Lee Osborn assisted me in the Clarendon Chapter; and I must not conclude without my husband's name, who gave me much sympathy and encouragement in my task.
