Henry Bromby

The Very Rev Henry Bodley Bromby[1] (1840-1911[2]) was the second Dean of Hobart, serving from 1877 to 1884.[3]

Early life and education

Bromby was born into an ecclesiastical family.[4] He was educated at Jesus College, Cambridge.

Ordained ministry

Bromby was ordained in 1864[5] He was Canon of St David's Cathedral, Hobart from 1865 to 1868, and 1870 to 1877; incumbent of St. Johns, Hobart, from 1868 to 1873; incumbent of the cathedral parish of Hobart from 1873 to 1884; and Dean until his return to England, where he was Vicar of St Peter, Coggeshall[6] then St. John the Evangelist, Bethnal Green[7] (also Rural Dean of Spitalfields)[8] and finally Vicar of All Saints, Clifton.[9]

He died on 20 December 1911. He is buried in the churchyard of St George's Church, Easton-in-Gordano. His grave is marked by a cross with a figure of Jesus.

gollark: Where it shines is in performing random useful tasks which there isn't dedicated hardware available for, linking together disparate systems (much more practically than redstone), working as a "microcontroller" to control something based on a bunch of input data, and entertainment-/decorative-type things (displaying stuff on monitors and whatnot, and music with Computronics).
gollark: For example, quarrying. CC has turtles. They can dig things. They can move. You can make a quarry out of this, and people have. But in practice, they're not hugely fast or efficient, and it's hard to make it work well in the face of stuff like server restarts, while a dedicated quarrying device from a mod will handle this fine and probably go faster if you can power it somehow.
gollark: I honestly don't think CC is particularly overpowered even with turtles. While it can technically do basically anything, most bigger packs will have special-purpose devices which are more expensive but do it way better, while CC is very annoying to have work.
gollark: Out of all the available APIs in _G the only ones I can see which allow I/O of some sort directly and don't just make some task you can technically already do more convenient are `fs`, `os`, `redstone`, `http`, and `term`. You can, at most, probably disable `http` and `redstone` without breaking everything horribly, and it would still be annoying.
gollark: What other stuff would you disable, anyway? I don't think there's much which isn't just a utility API of some sort which you can disable without more problems.
