Gore writes to Carter stating his depression at leaving the Birmingham bishopric (he was appointed to Oxford in 1911), and asks whether Carter knows anything of a Mrs Aston, wife of a doctor, who is in desperate need of mone. The letter has many crossings out and alterations, revealing Gore's agitated state of mind at this point. The recipient was Alfred Henry Carter (1849-1917), noted clinician, Professor of Medicine at Bormingham, and active in community matters. Charles Gore (22 January 1853 – 17 January 1932) was one of the most influential Anglican theologians of the 19th century, helping reconcile the church to some aspects of biblical criticism and scientific discovery, while remaining Catholic in his interpretation of the faith and sacraments. Also known for his social action, Gore became an Anglican bishop and founded the priestly Community of the Resurrection as well as co-founded the Christian Social Union.
