The Revd. Thomas Gould, Vicar of Axbridge 1766 – 1796 – A talk by John Page
25 October, 2023 @ 19:30 - 21:00
Thomas Gould was the vicar stated by Hannah More to be ‘intoxicated about six times a week and very frequently prevented from preaching by two black eyes honestly earned by fighting’ and ‘the black shades of his character are too melancholy even to be sketched here.’ How accurate was she?
