=William Connor Magee= (1868-1891) was Dean of Cork. He was translated to the Archbishopric of York, but died within a very few months, May 5th, 1891. He is buried in the Cathedral Yard, where a massive cross of Irish marble has been erected over his grave. In the south choir aisle of the cathedral there is also a recumbent effigy, the likeness to the deceased prelate being most remarkably good. His career is so recent and his eminence so well known that it is unnecessary to speak of them.
=Mandell Creighton= (1891-1897) had been Canon of Windsor, and previously of Worcester. He was translated to London when Bishop Temple became Archbishop of Canterbury. He died in 1901, and is buried in the crypt of S. Paul’s; an inlaid marble slab copied from the one over his grave is in the south choir aisle of the cathedral.
=Hon. Edward Carr Glyn= (1897-1916), Vicar of Kensington, Chaplain to the Queen; resigned 1916.
=Frank Theodore Woods= (1916), Vicar of Bradford, Yorks, 1912-1916, is the present bishop.
