Excerpt from Queen Anne's Bounty: A Short Account of Its History and Work Queen Anne's Bounty, though for the past eighty years completely overshadowed by the Ecclesiastical Commission with its great resources, has an interest of its own as the first body incorporated to deal with any of the many problems of central Church finance. No general history of its origin and its activities has been given since the republication in 1845 of Hodgson's Account of Queen Anne's Bounty first published in 1826. The following pages are an attempt to give, very concisely and in non-technical language, a description of the purposes for which the Corporation was established in 1704, of the duties then and subsequently entrusted to it, and of the manner in which these duties have been and are now being carried out.
