  1. Tennessee Williams _ 27 Wagons Full of Cotton and

    Of course it's bound to cause a great deal of very disagreeable talk. Especially 'round the church! Are you gentlemen Episcopalian? PORTER: No, ma'am. Catholic, Miss Collins. MISS COLLINS: Oh. Well, I suppose you know in England we're known as the English Catholic church. We have direct Apostolic succession through St. Paul who christened the Early Angles-which is what the original English people were called-and established the English branch of the Catholic church over there. So when you hear ignorant people claim that our church was founded by-by Henry the Eighth-that horrible, lecherous old man who had so many wives-as many as Blue-beard they say! -you can see how ridiculous it is and how thoroughly obnox-ious to anybody who really knows and understands Church History!
