After my brother's death, an organisation was formed in connection with Rugby School, entitled “ THE FOX MEMORIAL,” which has been continued to the present day.
Considering the length of time which has elapsed since the decease of my brother Henry, and the large number of his personal friends who have been removed by the hand of death, it is very gratifying, and has somewhat surprised me, that the fund, instead of diminishing, has materially increased during the last decade of years.
A sermon has been preached in the school chapel at Rugby every year since his death, and this annual sermon has now become one of the established institutions of the school, and takes its place among the associations of their boyhood, which old Rugbeians carry with them to all parts of the world.
It may be interesting to place on record a copy of the original appeal, and of the members of the committee, many of whom are now deceased.
