Boys as Bishops.
In olden days it was customary
at many of the great churches to
appoint one of the choir boys a
"bishop" for the Christmas season.'

dean, canons, and clergy alike, and

word was law. "

dined in state, and afterwards went
in procession through the city.

contributions from any whom he
could waylay. Dean Inge , records

collected no less than £77. As money'
