Edward Broughton-Rouse, Sheffield solicitor, 'Ecclesiastical Agent' (agent for the purchase and sale of advowsons):Biblio.com

Printed pamphlet with 'P.T.O.' in large letters on cover and handbill notice with autograph covering letter to an unnamed clergyman Rev. Charles William Shepherd in which he describes himself as 'the "Doyen" of Ecclesiastical Agents'.

réf. 8943None of the items dated. Pamphlet from circa 1897. The three items indicate a brashness approaching hucksterism on the part of a Victorian professional in addition to marketing techniques advanced for the period. Letter: 12mo 2 pp. Stamped at head: 'Edw. Broughton Rouse M.A. LL.D. 436 GLOSSOP ROAD SHEFFIELD.' Twenty-five lines of text. Clear and complete. Fair on lightly-aged paper. Many hundreds of this letter must have been copied out and sent to clergymen throughout England. Begins 'Should you be thinking of effecting an Exchange or of disposing of your Patronage I shall be glad if you will allow me to either endeavour to carry through the former or to introduce a Purchaser as the case may be -'. Later he boasts 'Now that Mr. Emery Stark has retired I am I believe the "Doyen" of Ecclesiastical Agents.' In pencil on the reverse are notes regarding the Rev. Charles William Shepherd's benefice: 'Commuted Value £356 & 6 acres of Glebe C.W.S. aged 65 next month.' Pamphlet: 12mo 16 pp. On art paper. Good though aged and with rusting staples. Unusual cover with illustration of cloister and letters 'P. T. O.' in large font. Two full-page photographs: the first of a smug frock-coated figure presumably Broughton-Rouse inside an opulent Victorian drawing room captioned 'Good Morning! Well I hope you like the Rectory' and the second of his impressive residence the 'Grey Tower Glossop Road Sheffield'. Four pages of testimonial 'Extracts from Letters of the Clergy' initials only of writers. The Benefices Act is reproduced over three pages followed by a page of details of Broughton-Rouse's 'General Law Club' and a perforated subscripton leaf with photo of 'The New Municipal Buildings' on the reverse. The pamphlet ends with advertisement for Broughton-Rouse as 'Agent for Two or Three of the Leading Life Offices'. Handbill: 4to 1 p. Good on aged paper. Headed 'The Benefices' Act' and consisting of an 'Extract from "Truth" of 12th June 1902.' On 1 August 1905 according to Whitaker's Sheffield Almanac Broughton-Rouse was 'suspended from the practise of his profession for one year. The charge against him is that he induced Walter Brown the patron of a living and the Rev. William Henry Holland Healey who was presented to the living to commit an act of simony and that he caused the latter to make a declararation under the Benefices Act 1898 which he knew to be false'. From the Shepherd family archive. None of the items dated. Pamphlet from circa 1897. unknown
