By 1914, a leading local doctor, Sir William Milligan, had begun a campaign in the 'Manchester Guardian' to raise funds for radium treatment.
His address on the occasion was notable for its declaration that, in any scheme for church reunion in Scotland, the Scottish episcopalians must be considered ; while its enunciation of doctrine concerning the church called forth the warm approval of Canon Liddon, who wrote and thanked him for it.
