Tait, ARCHIBALD CAMPBELL (1811-1882), ninety-second archbishop of Canterbury. He was educated at Edinburgh, at Glasgow and at Balliol College, Oxford, where he became senior tutor, and he was one of the four tutors who, in 1841, protested against Newman's Tract 90. He was appointed headmaster of Rugby on the death of Doctor Arnold, was later made dean of Carlisle, and then became bishop of London, succeeding Doctor Bloomfield in 1856. Here he gave evening sermons at Saint Paul's, in order to reach the people, and he won the respect of all by his impartiality and courage. In 1868 Disraeli made Tait archbishop of Canterbury. His primacy was marked by the disestablishment of the Irish Church, and by the passing of the Public Worship Regulation Act of 1874.
