Note
John Milner was an English Roman Catholic bishop and writer who served as the Vicar Apostolic of the Midland District from 1803 to 1826. His 'History of Winchester' appeared in 1798. It led to a controversy with Dr Sturges, a prebendary of the cathedral, which brought forth two of Milner’s best-known works, 'Letters to a Prebendary' and 'The End of Religious Controversy'.
