Lord Dundreary
It is rather in the fashion of wearing their hair than in their dress that the changes effected in the appearance of men in the last sixty years can be best studied. Beards came in after the Crimean War, but they were not universally popular. The Bishop of Rochester took up so strong a line on the subject in 1861 that Punch was moved to protest:—
Good Doctor Wigram (Rochestere),
At Parsons' beards is raving:
We sadly fear that we shall hear
The Bishop's head needs shaving.
