Possibly belonging to a Reverend Richard Whitmore Norman (1829-1906), who published several Christian sermons and religious texts. The title page from his 1860 publication "Occasional Sermons" reveals he resided at one point at Exeter College in Oxford and was a Fellow of St. Peter's College, Radley. Sermons are accessible from UBC Library as microforms.
