Small octavo. NOTE* A humorous look at this issue of Sunday and the Sabbath day working practices proposed by this "Bill". Sir A. Agnew was Member of Parliament for Wigtownshire in Scotland, 1830-1837. He soon became deeply attached to the cause of Sabbath Day Practices, and pressed for the banning of all secular labour on Sunday. For this purpose he introduced no less than four Sabbath Observance Bills in the Commons, none of which passed. It was the third attempt which drew on him the wrath of Charles Dickens, whose essay Sunday Under Three Heads (1836) is very largely a personal attack on Agnew, whom he described as a fanatic, motivated by resentment of the idea that those poorer than himself might have any pleasure in life.
