"In a Convocation holden at Oxford on the 3rd Nov. the instruments authorising the division of certain portions of Hulme Cultram, into three several districts, were sealed. The patronage of this widely extended parish belongs to the University, and by a former grant of 50l. per annum to each of the three churches of St. Paul, St. Cuthbert, and St. John, three resident clergymen will now be secured, in a district the greater part of which was several miles from the parish church, and so dispersed as to render an attendance on divine worship during the greater part of the year utterly impossible." |

| A painting, watercolour, in the church is full of interesting detail. It is a view
from the parsonage. In the near ground is the parsonage garden. The National School
is in the middle ground, obscuring the church which has a spire, and to its left is
the small hearse house. At the Solway shore is Bank Mill, windmill; and across the
sea, Criffel. |
