Summary

Right Rev. Dr. John Reginald Harmer, Anglican Bishop of Adelaide from 1895. His main aims were to complete building St Peter's Cathedral and to increase the number of clergy. He recruited 37 English clergymen between 1895 and 1905. He left South Australia for a position at Rochester Cathedral in Kent. He is remembered for his tolerant leadership, kindness and avoidance of controversy. He was a capable administrator but failed to inspire his congregations.
