I think our George Sumner went down to Texas, having stepped down as head
of Wycliffe College (our evangelical seminary across the road from Trinity
College), and is now one of the glut of bishops in those parts.  Ephraim
Radner came north and is one of the five who have just written a letter to
our Bishop chastising him for not keeping the conservative faith in these
days of Same-Sex marriage and sanctioning Local Option.
