[edit] Author Roald Dahl's comments
Roald Dahl, an alumni of Repton School when the Archbishop was the Headmaster there comments on the Archbishop and says he used to be very severe with his caning of schoolboys. In effect the students having to wipe blood of their behinds before wearing their trousers again. Dahl comments on this in his book called "Boy: Tales of Childhood" A quotation from page 146 of the Puffin edition says " He was an ordinary clergyman at that time as well as being Headmaster, and I would sit in the dim light of the school chapel and listen to him preaching about the Lamb of God and about Mercy and Forgiveness and all the rest of it and my young mind would get totally confused. I knew very well that only the night before the preacher had shown neither Forgiveness nor Mercy in flogging some small boy who had broken the rules ". Haphar 08:43, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
