Caption

The late Rev. Canon Conway, 1876. Engraving from a photograph by Mr. Charles Watkins. 'The Rev. William Conway, Canon of Westminster, and Rector of St. Margaret's...was a munificent contributor to Church work...The beautiful Church of the Holy Trinity, at Chatham, owes its erection, its endowment, its schools, audits parochial organisation to the munificence of the "Brother and Sister." Canon Conway was an Evangelical of the old type, and a hearty Church worker according to his strong convictions. As Proctor representing the Chapter of Westminster in the Lower House of Convocation of the Province of Canterbury, he was always at his post, and took part in the rubrical discussions, and in the committees. The canonry is worth £1000 a year, with the rectory of St. Margaret's'. From "Illustrated London News", 1876.
