Mackonochie

Mackonochie, Alexander Heriot (1825-87), born at Fareham, in Hampshire, educated at Bath, Exeter, and Wadham College, Oxford, graduated in 1848, and was ordained the next year. He was curate at Westbury in Wiltshire, and Wantage, in 1858 went to St. George's-in-the-East, and in 1862 became curate-in-charge of St. Alban's, Holborn. From 1867 to 1882 he was frequently prosecuted for alleged excesses in ritual, and in 1882 he resigned his cure to oblige his bishop. When staying at Ballachulish he lost his way in the forest of Mamore, and died from exposure.
