The Right Reverend Dr. Milman, newly appointed Bishop of Calcutta, arrives in Srinagar, the capital of Cashmere, in an engraving that captures the grandeur of his arrival. Preceded by his esteemed predecessors like Bishop Heber and the Late Bishop Cotton, Dr. Milman's tenure begins with high expectations. Witnessed by the Bishops of India and Ceylon in Synod at Calcutta, his arrival is marked by heartfelt testimonials and blessings. In a black and white photograph, some Archbishops and Bishops are seen in deep discussion at the Church Congress at Nottingham. An engraving of a Synod of English Bishops at Calcutta further highlights the significance of the role. Bishop Heber, a revered figure, is remembered through engravings and lithographs, while the tragic death of the Late Bishop Cotton in India in 1826 is etched in history. Through the annals of time, the Bishop of Calcutta continues to be a symbol of faith and resilience in the face of adversity.
