This affecting and thought-provoking work is a pastoral letter written by the Reverend John Baghot de la Bere to his parishioners in the village of Prestbury. The letter recounts the story of a local farmer who was falsely accused and imprisoned for a crime he did not commit, and reflects on the broader themes of justice, mercy, and forgiveness. The work is a testament to the power of faith and compassion in the face of adversity, and is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of religion and social justice.
