Quick married Frances Winifred Pearson,[1] a niece of Karl Pearson.
Ecclesiastical and academic career
In his works he advocated the doctrines of soul sleep and conditional immortality.[2] He was one of the leading exponents of orthodox Anglicanism({{{1}}}, {{{2}}}) and upheld a position similar to that of the authors of Essays Catholic and Critical (1926). He followed systematic and synthetic rather than historical methods and expressed his thought in a modern way.
