Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: LAP-LEO
LEE, JAMES PRINCE (1804-1869) , English divine, was born in London on the 28th of July 1804, and was educated at St Paul's school and at Trinity College,
Cambridge
 , where he displayed exceptional ability as a classical scholar. After taking orders in 1830 he served under
Thomas
 
Arnold
  at Rugby school, and in 1838 was appointed head-master of King
Edward
 's school, Birmingham, where he had among his pupils E. W. Benson, J. B. Lightfoot and B. F. Westcott. In 1848 Lord John Russell nominated him as first bishop of the newly-constituted see of Manchester. His pedagogic manner bore some-what irksomely on his clergy. He is best remembered for his splendid
work
  in church extension; during his twenty-one years'
tenure
  of the see he consecrated 130 churches. He took a foremost part in
founding
  the Manchester free library, and bequeathed his own valuable collection of books to
Owens
  College. He died on the 24th of December 1869.
A memorial sermon was preached by Archbishop E. W. Benson, and was published with biographical details by J. F. Wickenden and others.
