He attended the unveiling of Hugh M‘Neile’s statue in St George's Hall:-
"Yet, in the case of M‘Neile’s statue, it was brought to Liverpool and placed on its pedestal in the dark of night, and was unveiled "without any ceremonial" in St. George's Hall, three days later, on the evening of Monday, 5 December, in the presence of the Mayor, the chairman, secretary, and other several members of the Statue Committee, several "ladies", M‘Neile’s son, the Revd Edmund Hugh M‘Neile (who took over St. Paul’s, Princes Park from his father) and the Revd Dyson Rycroft, Honorary Canon of Liverpool."
