The Right Rev. Dr. Fraser, the new Bishop of Manchester, 1870. Engraving from a photograph by Messrs. Mason and Co., of James Fraser, '...a great promoter of national was one of the Special Commissioners to inquire into the employment of women and children in was also a member of the Duke of Newcastle's Education Commission; and more recently was sent by the Government to report upon the common school system of the United States. He will long be remembered with affection by the people of Reading, who have not only often heard his voice from the pulpits of the town, but have been much interested on several occasions when he has kindly consented to give lectures in connection with St. Mary's and St. Giles's Young Men's Christian Associations. In his new and enlarged sphere, Dr. Fraser's kindliness of manner, firmness of purpose, and indomitable energy will enable him well to fulfil the important duties of his office. He has never been known as an ecclesiastical partisan, but as a loyal, impartial Churchman, of vigorous character and broad sympathies, qualities which, it is confidently believed, will recommend him to the goodwill of the great community of Manchester'.
