Renan's "St. Paul" -- XI The hard church -- XII Romanism, Protestantism, and Anglicanism [Newman, Luther, Pusey and Maurice] -- From the 1871 preface: 'Only where a belief about God helps us to explain a more real belief in Him, and only so far as it does so, has it any true value. Scepticism and dogmatism are but different forms of the attempt to accommodate infinite living claims upon us to our human weakness.' -- `The Hard Church sees in theology neither a deep philosophy, like Coleridge; nor a response to the heart, like Neander; nor a divine reconciliation of the many contradictory yearnings of human nature, like Mr. Maurice. Its idea of a theological system is a decisive chain of circumstantial evidence, with a result confirmatory of all sagacious views of life. Its aim and effort is to draw up so masterly a statement of these, that you would think yourself a fool to put a business-agency into the hands of a man so insincere or so dense-minded as to withhold his assent.'

See Hutton's entry in the Oxford DNB, together with that of the recipient Sir Lovelace Tomlinson Stamer (1829-1908), Anglican Bishop of Shrewsbury. 1p, 12mo. In fair condition, on lightly aged paper, with slight smudging on the first page. With two folds for postage. Addressed to 'The Revd Sir Lovelace T Stamer Bart' and signed 'R H Hutton'. Twenty-five lines of text in a hand that must surely have proved as much of a challenge to Hutton's compositors as to present-day readers. He begins by responding to a 'kind & generous letter', stating that he will 'gladly occupy the quarters you so kindly offer', though he would 'prefer not to impose on you any additional cost, when you must have so much already with your [heavy?] [?]'. He has been requested by the Staffordshire Sentinel (Henley) to send him my paper before the first day of the Congress. I suppose I may [?] do so.' He discusses the matter further, before concluding: 'I will not trouble you to write again unless you think it unwise to comply with the Sentinel's request.'.

See his entry in the Oxford DNB. 1p, 12mo. In good condition, lightly aged, with strip of mount adhering to inner margin. Folded once for postage. Reads 'My dear Miss Stuart / I don't think Mr. Bridges brings us "much forrider" with Keats. Many thanks for the article but I am a little disappointed that his criticism seems so flat. I return your paper with many thanks - / Every yours very truly / Robert H Hutton'.

See his entry in the Oxford DNB. Both letters closely written. Both folded for postage. The letters concern the following statement in the Spectator, 6 February 1875: 'Rumour says that Sir William Harcourt has ascertained from his friend, Mr. Disraeli, that while he will treat the Marquis of Hartington with all the respect due to the leader of a great party, he could not have accorded that deference to Mr. Forster. If rumour does not speak falsely, we could wish that the meeting of the Reform Club had received that very significant message.' ONE (9 March 1875): 4pp, 12mo. Fifty-seven lines. Bifolium. In fair condition, lightly aged, with slight wear and discoloration at head and foot. Begins: 'If the statement you refer to in the Spectator of Feby. 6, - which I prefixed by "Rumour says," - be utterly unfounded, why has Sir William Harcourt never denied it in the press? I personally heard the statement made, I do not say on their own evidence, but as a matter of public notoriety among members of the House, by more than one member of the House of Commons.' He proceeds to defend his position at length. Includes the following observation: 'I know that he read the statement - not for the first time from you now, for I heard that he commented on it somewhat warmly to an intimate friend of my own, & then expressed or implied an intention of writing to the Spectator on the subject'. TWO (16 March 1875): 1p, 16mo. In good condition, lightly aged and worn. Continues the argument: 'If newspapers never mentioned at all anything of that nature, how much would appear in the newspapers? For my own part till I see Sir William Harcourt's contradiction of the rumour, I shall continue to believe that it iwas by no means [false?]'.
