No full textFrom Mrs S. Biddulph at Shirehampton near Bristol to T.H. at Thrapston in Northamptonshire. She received T.H’s kind letter and the enclosed sum of £10, which she hopes to repay in January. When she had last wrote to T., she had not heard anything from any Bristol person so she was unable to give T.H. the news that he would have been waiting for. She was in Bristol last Sunday and had dinner with her son. She saw Mrs Molineaux at church in the morning – she looked very ill and she told Biddulph that her life had been despaired of during the week. She had a great deal of pain in her side. Biddulph is sorry to report that Mr. Weare is the only person who thinks that there is any improvement in Mrs. W’s (possibly Mrs. Weare) condition. Everyone else is despairing on her account. ‘Mr [Thomas Tregenna] Biddulph has preached once at St Stephen’s, the second Friday, they continue to appoint a funeral at the hour for service and against the third Friday, the church was shut off for whitewashing.’ Mr Greville has behaved very badly in every respect, ‘but it is enough that Mr [Biddulph] should tread in his master’s steps, to expose him to such treatment as his master met with while on earth, was not he called Beelzebub?’ ‘I saw Mr Edwards today. He complimented me highly upon coming to be his curate but I mean to recommend him a better. He spent last week at Heywood House (Heywood House in Wiltshire was the estate at this time of the Ludlow family. It is now the headquarters of the National Trust) with Dr Ludlow. He preached twice on the Sunday at Westbury church and in the evening to a large congregation at Heywood House. He speaks of Dr Ludlow as of me on whom a thorough heart-change has taken place, and indeed his opening Miss Gibbs’ house as a preaching place, seems pretty strong evidence.’ Mr [James] Ireland has been dangerously ill of a fever at Beaminster in Dorset. They are expected to return to Brislington in Somerset as soon he is able to travel. Biddulph congratulates T.H. on the prospect of a mission to the South Seas. She finds that her house is very pleasant, as she has always preferred the country. It has an excellent garden extending to an acre of land. Yesterday she was able to gather two pecks of peas that in Bristol would have cost 9 shillings. Has T.H. written to Colonel W.? Biddulph means to write to him at Carnaton in Cornwall, where she expects that he will soon be. ‘Mr Whitby preached a charming sermon. I hear last Sunday sennight [‘seven nights’] at Tiverton Church [Cornwall], both he and Mr Collins are very intimate with Dr Fordyce and are much satisfied with him in a near view of death. Lately they say he witnessed a good remission(?)’. Biddulph’s children are enjoying a good ‘enlargement’ and both look hale and hearty. Miss N. is so much depressed by three months indisposition that much good remains to be done by exposure to country air. Biddulph’s little girls join with Miss N. in sending their love and compliments to T.H. and his wife [Janet]. (1 sheet, 4 p.) 17 June 1795Postmarked "BRISTOL"; acknowledging receipt of 10 pounds. Thomas Tregenna Biddulph (1763-1838) was born in Worcestershire, the son of the Anglican clergyman and writer Thomas Biddulph (1735-1790). He was educated at Truro and at Queen’s College Oxford. After ordination, Biddulph served several curacies including one to his father at Padstow. From 1793 to 1803 he was incumbent at Bengeworth and in 1799 was appointed Perpetual Curate of Bristol St James. Biddulph was prominent in evangelical circles. He set up a Sunday School, introduced a Visiting Society, and was a pioneer of both the Bristol Female Penitentiary Society and the Church of England Tract Society. He was also an early member of the Church Missionary Society, a founder of the Bristol Church Missionary Association and the first treasurer and secretary of the Bristol Clerical Education Society. Biddulph was a prolific writer and played a leading role in the 1815 baptismal controversy. He was a strong churchman opposed to Catholic emancipation and parliamentary reform. James Ireland (1724-1814) was born in Beaminster, Dorset. He was a wealthy shipowner and sugar merchant whose business was centred in Bristol. Ireland served as a magistrate and High Sheriff of Somerset. He lived for much of his life in Brislington Hall where he provided hospitality for many of the leading figures of the Revival. He was a particularly close friend of John Fletcher. Ireland maintained a neutral position in the idealogical disputes which plagued Methodism and was generous in his support of Methodist and Anglican causes. He was instrumental in the founding of the Bristol Clerical Education Society in 1795. Janet Payne Orton (d.1799) was a wealthy friend and companion of the Countess of Huntingdon and was accustomed to accompany the Countess on her travels. In 1788 she became the second wife of the evangelical Thomas Haweis and proved a valuable support in his ministry. In 1790 Janet was appointed with her husband to be one of the trustees of the Countess of Huntingdon Connexion. Janet was involved in a carriage accident in 1798 and did not fully recover from its effects, dying on 15 February 1799

Biddulph holding up samples of a morning glory on Enjebi Island, summer 1949
No full textImages documenting the 1949 Bikini Resurvey Project.
Caption in scrapbook: Plants on a "shot" island
Biddulph, with a collection bag slung at his side, took from Engebi Island, a number of specimens of plants whose development apparently had been affected by habitation in a bomb-blasted area. In these pictures, however, he is holding aloft samples of Ipomea grandiflora, a Morning Glory, which appeared to be of normal health and development. These examples were found far from the blast area and were in great contrast to some found near the epicenter.
