2. 1816 The NEW EVANGELICAL MAGAZINE AND Theological Review

SIR, There are some Clergymen in the establishment, who indulge themselves with an innocent kind of distinction, by the wearing of hats of a peculiar shape, with a rose ribbon, vulgarly called by others the ''fire shovel hats''. It is generally confined to such Clergymen as have become chaplains to some Noblemen, or persons of rank and title. No man of respectability in the church assumes this shaped hat, if he has any sense of decorum and good manners. without the official title. But the case is very different with our Dissenting brethren; among them, the increase of these shaped hats, is truly alarming and disgusting. At one period, our ministers, were distinguished and held in contempt for their Puritanism and Methodism; but now they excite risibility, by the use of the "fire shovel hat". This is an offence, which must excite painful emotions in the heart of well educated and intelligent Dissenters, to have their respective pastors, aiming, not only at clerical distinction, but imposing upon the public as they walk through the streets, by the assumption of a badge of distinction, which is contrary to decency and good manners. As well might they place upon the breast, the star and garter, and the emblems of royal dignity, or wear lawn sleeves — or the black cassock or the sylvan cap, as to wear "the fire shovel hat".

9. 1822 Cobbett|William Cobbett: Cobbett's Weekly Political Register London, Saturday, August 10, p. 367

In the mean while, let me recommend to you, and to all Parsons, to read Mr. Carlile's pamphlet, the Republican, of the 2nd of August. It will do your very hearts good. Give it to your parishioners to read. They will find out a great deal from it; and they will not want to trouble you much in future. I expected that the fire-shovel hats would ''get it'' in that Number; and they have ''got it'', and laid on with a heavy hand!

The enmity, which, in your Political Register, you have, for years, shewn to the "Fire-shovel Hats", or to the Clergy of the Church established by law, in particular, and to Dissenters from that Church, in general, in whatever state of mind it might have left you, has, I believe, not failed to persuade your readers, that, you are much about the same sort of Christian as I am.
