LANCASHIRE PUBLIC SCHOOL ASSOCIATION.
TO THE EDITOR OF TILE SPECTATOR.
Manchester, 31st October 1848.
Ste—I have perused with mach interest the letters that have appeared in your paper signed by "A Master at Rugby School." He is evidently a man wishful of doing good to his fellow men; but from the conclusions he arrives at, e.speeially in his last letter, I somewhat apprehend that he has not read the Plan of this As- sociation with sufficient care. I venture on making this surmise as I know, from various letters now before me from several clergymen of the Established Church, that objections have been started by them against the Plan, which have been most willingly and openly retracted after the perusal of the document.
As your columns have lately so ably advocated our movement, I will not take up your time further than to solicit the favour of your informing those who take an interest in education, that I shall be happy to send to any of them a "Plan," or give any farther information respecting our Association, if a letter be addressed to me, "Manchester." Our cause can and will only thrive by investigation; we therefore court calm and dispassionate discussion.
I remain, Sir, your faithful servant, H. RT. FORREST, Hon. See.
