Excerpt from Charges Against the Charity Commissioners, in the Matter of the Royal Free Grammar School at Giggleswick: Submitted to the Consideration of the Members of Both Houses of Parliament
Tm; Author of the following pages having for nearly two years in vain solicited the interference of the Charity Commissioners in a case of gross wrong and oppression, immediately under their jurisdiction, is compelled, on their final refusal of justice, to appeal to the public, whose servants they are.
He believes that a more striking instance of dereliction of duty on the part of an official body, than that which his statement discloses, has seldom been made public. He has taken up this case on public grounds, and he is not without hope that the force of enlightened public opinion will deter the Charity Commissioners from a course which must, if pursued, defeat, in this case, one of the chief objects of their appointment. As the best proofs he can offer of his good faith, he gives his name with his statement, and declares himself ready to substantiate every allegation in it by the most convincing evidence before an impartial tribunal.
