The Life Of Robert Frampton, Bishop Of Gloucester: Deprived As A Non-Juror 1689 (1876) is a biography written by Thomas Simpson Evans. The book tells the story of Robert Frampton, who was the Bishop of Gloucester during the late 17th century. Frampton was a non-juror, which means he refused to take an oath of allegiance to William III and Mary II after they took the throne in 1689. As a result, he was deprived of his position as bishop and faced persecution from the government.The book provides a detailed account of Frampton's life, including his early years, his education, and his rise to the position of bishop. It also explores the political and religious climate of the time, and how Frampton's refusal to take the oath of allegiance was seen as a challenge to the authority of the new monarchs.Throughout the book, Evans provides insights into Frampton's character and beliefs, as well as the challenges he faced as a non-juror. The biography also includes letters and other primary source documents that shed light on Frampton's life and the events of the time.Overall, The Life Of Robert Frampton, Bishop Of Gloucester: Deprived As A Non-Juror 1689 (1876) is an important historical document that provides a fascinating glimpse into the life of a prominent figure in the Church of England during a tumultuous period in British history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
