TitleLetter from Pratt and Bickersteth to Taylor [copy]: 14 July 1819: London
Extent1 doc.
Date1819
DescriptionThe schools are to be his proper sphere of activity. He is severely reprimanded for having flogged one woman and several boys for making noise during divine service. Flogging a woman for such an offence is indefensible and the efficacy of flogging children is questioned. Such punishment should certainly not be carried out by Taylor himself.
