He acquired a positive reputation for being skilled in encouraging vocations to ordination amongst young men, and 50 ordinands and priests whose vocations he had personally encouraged clubbed together to purchase his episcopal regalia on his elevation to the episcopate.[7] Nonetheless, in retirement he often bemoaned the fact that, despite his careful prayers, only one of his 26 godsons took Holy Orders.[8] During his retirement he served as an honorary assistant bishop in the Diocese of Gloucester, and as an honorary assistant priest at Northleach parish church. He also officiated daily at his own private chapel, in his home "Doctors Commons".
